What i s Decorative Paintings

Decorative painting is a broad category that encompasses numerous painting techniques and mediums applied to a variety of surfaces. Contemporary decorative painting includes tole painting, folk art, and faux finishing.

Originally, tole painting referred to decorative painting specifically on tin. Tole is a French word meaning lacquered or enameled metal ware. The original tole painting medium was paint and common elements included fruit, flowers, and leaves. Traditional folk art originated with peasants and the style incorporated the use of natural-bristle round brushes, primary colors, and a great deal of stroke work, such as the comma stroke, C-stroke, and S-stroke. The style of traditional folk art varies according to the culture that it represents.

Contemporary decorative painting is applied to many surfaces, including plastic, wood, glass, fabric, and fiber board. Other possible surfaces are tiles, porcelain, ceramics, and pottery. Frequently, acrylic paint is the medium used for decorative painting because it dries faster than oil and because it's water based, and therefore easier to clean up.

Decorative painters use many specialty brushes, along with extenders, glazes, and gels, to create special effects. Contemporary decorative painting does not involve as much stroke work as traditional folk art. Common subjects include flowers, animals, fruits, birds, people, and scenery. Decorative painting is relatively easy to learn, and therefore quite popular.

In the 18th century, artists taught apprentices a method of one-stroke painting to decorate pottery or furniture. In this method, the brushes were loaded with multiple colors of paint so that the highlight, body color, and shadow were applied simultaneously. This method provides depth to the element, but is quicker than applying each layer individual. One-stroke is still a popular method of decorative painting.

Several methods of decorative painting are common in home decor. Faux finishing simulates stone, leather, marble, wood grain, and other finishes. Various faux finishing techniques include antiquing, crackling, smoking, sponging, and wood graining. Tromped L’Oreal is a decorative painting technique that creates the appearance of reality. Stenciling, in which paint is applied through a cut-out image, is commonly used to decorate walls or furniture.

Other methods of decorative painting used on walls or furniture include ragging, stippling, and pickling. Ragging creates texture as a crumbled piece of cloth is used to apply or remove small amounts of wet paint. In stippling, a stiff brush is used to apply paint over another color to create a blended look. Pickling, also known as a wash, gives wood a white or washed out appearance.

Bed Room Decoration

Bedroom is a place to relax, to share a few quiet moments, unwind and..., to sleep away the weariness of a long, hard day. The bedroom design requires more attention as this reflects its user's lifestyle, his practical needs, aesthetic preferences and his dreams. A few tips to make your bedroom better:

Firstly analyze the space available and see what could be incorporated in the given space.

The way a room is decorated has a major effect on how spacious it looks. The colors for walls and ceilings, the choice of flooring, the treatment of windows and design of the lighting system are all important aspects of decor. Also, there are a few other aspects specific to bedroom decor such as bedspreads, quilts and cushions which must be given due consideration.

The bed should be comfortable and should have space underneath for easy cleaning. The colors can be soft which blend with the room, to give it a harmonious and spacious look.

Lighting can do wonders for your bedroom. It lends meaning, expression and depth to your room. Bedroom lighting should have a special treatment; the tone of the light should be warm and cozy, to achieve this, apart from the ceiling light and the lamps on the night table.

Ventilation is another important aspect. A well ventilated room is not only bright and cheerful; it is also good for your physical and mental well being. The television should ideally be in your bedroom, along with your music system. Just make sure your eyes are level with the TV screen to avoid straining your eye muscles.

Windows let in light and are usually a prominent focal point of the room. Decorative window treatments can lend style to rooms. Good curtains will give life to any room. Whites and creams adapt to both classic and modern styles and are found in fabrics made of cotton, polyester, wool and embroidered linen.

For all the time spent and the intimacy it demands, a bedroom takes very careful and detailed planning. Not because it is the most personal room in a house but because it is a room WHERE YOU DREAM.

Decorate Your Living Room

Living Room

The living room makes the first impression of your house. Hence, the living area should be well decorated, well laid out and inviting to guests and family members. It should project a homely, comfortable yet elegant image. With a combination of imagination, good taste, statues and lamps, any living area can be transformed into one that radiates elegance and coziness at the same time. There are several ways you can decorate your living area to create an inviting place and cause a lasting impression to your guests: Arranging Furniture When you start arranging your furniture in the living room, consider how the space will be used. Will the arrangement of your furniture allow free movement and flow? Does it give an uncluttered look? Instead of placing large sofas directly against the wall, why not place it a foot or so away from the wall and put a lamp or plant behind it instead? Your lifestyle or taste determines what the focal point of your living area is. If you have a fireplace, you can rearrange your furniture around it. Or if you have a piano, and this is the focal point of your living area, your furniture could be set around it. Choose colors to set the mood... Colors can set the mood of your living room they can be either inviting or irritating. Colors have psychological effects on people and their moods. If you want your living area to be warm and inviting, use shades of Gold as it is one of the warmest and most relaxing colors. Whatever color you pick for the color of your walls, make your carpets and furniture coordinated. Small furniture can be positioned in the room to create a "lived-in" aura for your living area. This can be a small bench, or a low sofa table. Place magazines, journals and newspapers under the table. Placing flower vases, baskets and small plants on your table also creates beauty and livens up the room. Unique Lamps... Can add to the decor Place Lamps in a corner or a tabletop and they can highlight your living area. Second to color, light creates moods and sets the tone of your living area. Unique lamps, created from polished minerals and stones, can emit light after exposure to daylight or the light from normal light bulbs. When the chemicals in minerals or rocks react to light, this reaction causes the minerals or rocks to glow. The visible light emitted is sometimes very colorful and it is often very different from the normal color of the mineral. Decorating your home, particularly your living area, allows you to combine creativity, elegance and good taste. Make good use of space, accessories and furniture available to you so that you can create a living area that is inviting, relaxing, homely and elegant living room.
