What is Art? when you hear the word ART, obviously a creative world full of imaginations, manifestations, its colors and features comes to our mind. Art has its own language and a way of expressing ideas, feelings, thoughts and observations. Art, in its broadest sense, is a form of communication. It means whatever the artist intends it to mean, and this meaning is shaped by the materials, techniques, and forms it makes use of. In simple words something that is created with imagination and skill and that is beautiful or that expresses important ideas or feelings. 

The three classical types of visual Arts Include:

• Painting

• Sculpture

• Architecture

PAINTING

Painting is perhaps the most familiar type of Art. It is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface.  The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used. The best painting collections in India represent various historical arts and creativity and imagination of its creator. However, we may not have an exclusive definition of Art yet. Types of paintings include water color painting, Pastel painting, Digital painting, Sand Painting, Matte painting, Spray Paintings.

SCULPTURE

The most enduring and, arguably, the greatest form of fine art known to man, sculpture has played a major role in the evolution of human culture. Sculpture, an artistic form, in which - hard or plastic materials are worked into three-dimensional art objects. The designs may be embodied in freestanding objects, in reliefs on surfaces, or in environments ranging from tableaux to contexts that envelop the spectator. An extensive variety of media is used, including clay, wax, stone, metal, fabric, glass, wood, plaster, rubber, and random “found” objects. However, sculpture is not a fixed term that applies to a permanently circumscribed category of objects or set of activities. It is, rather, the name of an art that grows and changes and is continually extending the range of its activities and evolving new kinds of objects.

Architecture

 Architecture is a passion, vocation, a calling- as well as a science and a business. Architecture is both the - process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings or other structures. Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art. Architecture provides a sense of place and support of all types of human activity. All types of architecture are established not by architects but by society, according to the needs of its different institutions. Architecture also has the power to inspire and delight – it can enhance everyday experiences.
