Tapestry

Tapestry is a heavy, handwoven textile featuring intricate designs or images woven directly into the fabric. Created by skilled weavers using materials like wool, linen, cotton, silk, and sometimes silver and gold threads, tapestries have historically served as art pieces, decorations, insulation, and symbols of authority.

Airbrush

An airbrush is a device that sprays various media, including paint and ink, using compressed air. Artists use airbrushes to create a smooth, even application of color, often achieving effects that are not possible with traditional brushes. James Rosenquist, an American Pop artist, regularly used an airbrush in his work. Before gaining fame with pieces like the iconic F-111 (1965), he worked as a commercial and industrial painter, where he honed his airbrush skills.

Computer Art

Computer art refers to any type of digital imagery or graphic artwork created using a computer. Art curators often classify art made with computers as either digital art or new media art. Artists creating computer art leverage technological advancements to produce complex compositions.
