-A '''medium''' refers to the material or substance that an artist uses to create a work of art. This can include anything from traditional options like oil paint and charcoal to digital tools such as tablets and software. The term is also used more broadly to describe the general category or method of artistic expression, such as painting, sculpture, or photography.
-Each medium has its own characteristics, advantages, and limitations, which can influence both the process of making art and the final result. For instance, oil paint is known for its rich texture and slow drying time, allowing for extensive [[blending]] and [[layering]]. On the other hand, mediums like watercolor are appreciated for their transparency and fluidity, though they require careful control due to their unpredictability. Artists working with digital media can achieve a wide range of effects using software tools, often mimicking traditional mediums while adding unique possibilities like undo functions and layering.
-When more than one medium is used in a single artwork, the result is referred to as '''[[mixed media]]'''. This approach allows artists to explore different textures and visual effects by combining materials—such as layering ink over [[watercolor]] or adding collage elements to an acrylic painting.
-Choosing a medium is often a deeply personal decision for artists and can depend on many factors including the intended mood, desired level of detail, or even practical concerns like drying time and portability. The selected medium not only affects how the work is made but also contributes significantly to its overall impact and style.
-Related concepts include '''[[technique]]''', which refers to the way a medium is handled or applied; '''[[support]]''', the surface on which the medium is used (such as paper, canvas, or wood); and '''[[style]]''', which encompasses the visual characteristics that result from the artist's choices in medium and technique.
