Charcoal

Charcoal is made from charred wood and is used in both initial sketches and finished drawings. It can be easily smudged or erased, making it versatile for corrections. To make charcoal drawings permanent, a fixative like resin or gum is required. It’s especially useful for sketching first ideas on walls or canvas.

Grupo Ruptura

Grupo Ruptura was an organization formed in Brazil by artists who sought to break away from traditional naturalist painting in favor of geometric abstract art. In the early 1950s, the group published the Ruptura Manifesto, advocating for new art for a new country. The manifesto emphasized a departure from the past and a commitment to innovation, aligning with the modernist vision of Brazil as a forward-looking nation.

Acrylic on paper

Acrylic on paper is a technique that involves using acrylic paints on various paper types and textures. Artists often choose watercolor paper with smooth or rough surfaces to apply acrylics using watercolor techniques such as bleeding, washing, and spattering. This approach allows for a wide range of effects, combining the flexibility of acrylics with the delicate qualities of watercolor methods.
