__Renaissance__


-The main theme of the Renaissance period was man. It was a praise of human beings, how they lived, and how they thought.

-At this time in the world, humans were beginning to realize what life was all about. They began to think for themselves, and decided that life was worth living under your own circumstances and not someone else's.

-Most of the Renaissance innovaters used a newly developed oil medium* to add a vivid texture to their painting. Oil is a slow drying medium and usually does not last after a long period of time.

-Innovation was a big part of the Renaissance. Light perpective, three dimensional emphasis, and the anatomy of the body were three major innovations in which the art world created a foundation on from the renaissance on.


 * The Medium of a painting is the paint you paint with (Ex: Oil, Water Color, Ink...Etc.)
