So where can one go to determine the true essence of painting as an art? How can one define it? Is it the artists depiction of their soul on a canvas that creates the masterpiece?
Is it technical skill and classical styles that create the great masterpieces or just common earthly beauty depicted through the artists vision? These questions have reverberated throughout history
and now they plague us again.

ART has not always been what we think it is today. An object regarded as Art today may not have been perceived as such when it was first made, nor was the person who made it necessarily regarded as
an artist. Both the notion of `art` and the idea of the `artist` are relatively modern terms.

Many of the objects we identify as art today — Greek painted pottery, medieval manuscript illuminations, and so on — were made in times and places when people had no concept of `art` as we
understand the term. These objects may have been appreciated in various ways and often admired, but not as `art` in the current sense.

ART lacks a satisfactory definition. It is easier to describe it as the way something is done — `the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences
that can be shared with others`rather than what it is.

Paintings as such from the ancient times are considered to be a mode by which artists express the beauty which they feel around themselves and thus they present
it according to their interpretations. Oil paintings have proven to create a tremendous leap in the creation of the art that looks much realistic and people just groove into
the beauty of the oil paintings which have an extremely realistic appearance.

In the modern age of the avant-garde and abstract art it is at times difficult to see the basis on the highest teachings. Some believe that the artists mental well-being plays a
large roll. Perhaps dome of out chaotic painting today is caused by the fact that many of the specialized artists are stunted human beings.

It is also mentioned that an artist should not try using the traditional elements all at once in the hopes of creating a great work of art. The work should unify in its style and mood;
and both such values should fit the artist`s individual personality.

It is also believed that the art of the past generations and eras are the building blocks for the preceding movement. If all of these theories were true, painting would become one large
contradiction. Maybe it already is?

Painting has gone through many shifts over the centuries and the only obvious similarity is that all involve some type of pigment on a surface and even that varies from time to time.
If we rely on the theories and philosophies of the old masters we can not accept the majority of 20th century art.
