Painting Folk
Paintings: Beginning, Evolution and Popularity
Painting was the earliest art form which man took interest in. Certain cave paintings done in prehistoric era in France, Mexico and India bear the testimony of this fact. The sketches made by the prehistoric people in the cave paintings of Bhimbetka and Adamgarh in India are clearly visible even today and the colors applied are fresh and lively. Human disposition has always traversed the surrounding regions like moors, meadows, hills, rivers, seas, skies, clouds, people, animals, birds and so many other things. The colorfulness and the vibrancy of the surroundings inspired man to recreate the magic pf nature on the rocks, caves, walls, canvas, paper, cloths and various other surfaces. To give variety to the paintings created, man used various media like oil colors, water colors, pastel colors, naturally available colors and many more.
Painting art form produced some phenomenal and outstanding artists. Some great painters of all times are Raphael, Leonardo Da Vinci, Mansoor, Michelangelo, Van Gogh, Dali, Pablo Picasso and M. F. Husain. These masters of painting specialized in different styles of paintings. During thousands of years’ existence of painting art form, hundreds of different styles of paintings emerged. Though only few of them became hugely popular around the world. Some of the most popular painting styles or school of paintings are Constructivism, Fauvism, Classicism, Abstract Art, Aboriginal Art, Aestheticism, Art Brut, Art Nouveau, Baroque, Byzantine Art, Cubism, Dada, Dragging, Encaustic, Paintings, Expressionism, Gothic Paintings, Impressionism, Mannerism, Marbling, Minimalism, Modernism, Neoclassicism, Orientalism, Primitivism, Ragging & Stippling, Realism, Spattering, Surrealism, Symbolism, Theorem Paintings And Wood Graining .
Tribal paintings and folk paintings have always had a distinct tinge in them. They have always attracted an art admirer for their simplicity, natural colors and locally existing themes. In India, several tribal and folk painting traditions have existed since very old times. Some renowned tribal and folk art forms are Madhubani paintings of Mithila, Bihar; Warli paintings of Thane, Maharashtra; Pata Chitra of Puri, Orissa; Phad paintings of Rajasthan etc.

Anyone have any staining/painting tips for craft painting on bare wood?
That was hard to put into words. I'm learning onestroke painting. I have some bare wood plaques that I'd like to paint on. When I stain them first the paint hardly shows up (it's folk art acrylic paint) and when I leave them bare the paint shows up fine but the overall look is just plain I guess. I am looking to find some tips from other crafters, ideas of stains or other finishing products to use and what steps I'd take to accomplish this! Hope this is worded well enough! Thanks for any help at all!
It sounds like your stain just may not have a sealer included in with it. If you use a good sealer, then your paint will have a smoother surface to go onto & should show up better. Have you tried using a lighter stain? Or just a sealer over the bare wood? You can even paint directly on the bare wood, then apply the stain OVER your piece & it will look antique, or nicotine stained, like the old tavern pieces from long ago! You could also use your stain as part of your design by carefully omitting the stain on the parts of the wood that you will be painting. By doing this, your painted designs will be sure to stand out brightly from the darker stainded areas. Always finish your piece with a clear sealer. Spray Artist Clear will give you a smooth finish & protect your delicate brush work!
