Glossary
Glossary of Art Terms Acrylic: A synthetic paint that dissolves in water. It can be applied in very thin transparent washes like watercolor, or very thickly like oil paint. Artist’s Proof: The first copy of an original print. The letters A. P. are often penciled on the proof itself. Cartoon: Many children’s books are illustrated in a cartoon style that depends on a lively line to create movement and humor. Often times the viewer notes major exaggerations in the humans or animals. Collage: From the French word coller that means to paste or glue. Cutting or tearing shapes out of paper or cloth and gluing them down on a flat surface. Color Separation: The colors of each page of art are separated into the three primary colors and black. Today a computer is used to separate the colors. Separate printing plates are made for each color. The plates are used to make color proofs that are checked to see that they match the artwork. Corrections are made and new plates are made. A final proof is printed and approved. The final printing plates are then made. Crayon: A mixture of dry powdery color with a wax binder. Etching: To make a drawing on metal (copper) by action of an acid; done by coating the surface with wax and letting acid eat into the lines or areas laid bare with a special needle. After several processes or states, the plate is inked and pressed with paper to get the image. Expressionism: Aspects of Expressionistic art include shocking colors, figures slightly out of proportion, and rough rapid brushwork. The emphasis is on the artist’s own self-expression rather than the reproduction of what the artist sees. Gouache: Paint that is made by mixing water directly into powered pigment. Gouache is opaque rather than transparent watercolor. Graphite: Pencil lead is graphite. Graphite sticks come in many different degrees of hardness from very soft to very hard. Gutter: The space formed by the inner margins of two facing pages of a book. Impressionism: A style associated with the French artists who worked in and around Paris in the latter part of the nineteenth century. This style uses details and mental associations to evoke subjective and sensory impressions rather than re-creation of objective reality. 45
