What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.

Monoprinting is a printmaking technique where a single impression is created from a re-printable surface, such as a lithographic stone, wood block, or metal plate. Unlike traditional printmaking, where multiple copies are produced, monoprinting results in a unique image. Techniques used in monoprinting include etching, lithography, and woodcut, but the key characteristic is that each print is one-of-a-kind.

A watermark is an image or pattern embedded into a sheet of paper during the papermaking process. Each papermaker includes a faint trademark, which becomes visible when the paper is held up to a light source. Watermarks serve as a mark of authenticity and are used for identification, often carrying historical significance in determining the origin and age of the paper.

Gouache is an opaque watercolor paint that allows artists to layer from light to dark. Unlike traditional transparent watercolors, gouache is used for creating solid, vibrant colors. It belongs to the water-media category and is made of pigment, a binding agent, and an inert material, specifically designed for opaque painting.
