'''Painting''' is an [[Art]], one of the visual arts. It is ''the act of applying colored substance to a surface; Creating a picture with colored oils or pastels.'' Word Tutor.
''The elements of design (i.e., line, colour, tone, texture) are used in various ways to produce sensations of volume, space, movement, and light. The range of media (e.g., tempera, fresco, oil, watercolour, ink, gouache, encaustic, casein) and the choice of a particular form (e.g., mural, easel, panel, miniature, illuminated manuscript, scroll, screen, fan) combine to realize a unique visual image.''

Painting as an ''art form'' dates back to prehistoric days. ''We know from textual and archaeological sources that painting was practiced in China from very early times and in a variety of media. Wall paintings were produced in great numbers in the early period of China's history.''
