What is oil on canvas?
Oil paint is a slow-drying type of paint made from pigment particles suspended in a drying oil, typically linseed oil. The viscosity of the paint can be adjusted by adding a solvent like turpentine, and varnish can be added to increase the glossiness of the dried paint film. Oil painting has been used since the 12th century in Europe, initially for decoration, but it was not widely adopted as a primary painting medium until the 15th century.

De Stijl, meaning The Style, was a group of Dutch artists who created abstract art based on strict adherence to vertical and horizontal geometry. The group was founded by Piet Mondrian and Theo van Doesburg in 1917. Mondrian eventually left De Stijl when Van Doesburg began incorporating diagonal geometry into his work, which Mondrian felt deviated from the group's principles.
Art Fabrication is a process used in the production of technically challenging or large-scale artworks. It occurs when a designer or artist is unable to fully realize their concept or design on their own and seeks assistance from a fabrication studio. These studios are equipped with specialized machinery, resources, and skilled labor necessary to execute complex art projects to a high standard.
