  Painting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Painting is the practice of applying pigment suspended in a carrier (or medium) and a binding agent (a glue) to a surface (support) such as paper, canvas or a wall.
Artistic painting is considered by many to be among the most important of the art forms.
Different types of paint are usually identified by the medium that the pigment is suspended or embedded in, which determines the general working characteristics of the paint, such as viscosity, miscibility, solubility, drying time, etc.

 Computer Painting
Not because the paintings are better or worse than any others, but because it relates to all sorts of things which can call into question lots of assumptions we make.
Even if we assume that the paint has been laid on as evenly as possible, and that the measurements really do follow the simple progression suggested, there is still plenty of room for the artists choice.
One thing that should be borne in mind, when talking of computerish painting, is that the hard-edged machine-like qualities that most normal people associate with a computer are a red herring.

 Lore Degenstein Gallery - John Fischer: Electronic Paintings
Though both painting and drawing share a number of these forms, that which is usually considered distinctive to painting is color.
Computers have remarkable facility with color in graphic design applications, evidenced by brilliant computer screen displays, enabling the computer artist to create endless images "painted" with "millions of colors" available on the screen.
It was not until 1975 that Fischer began to discover a correlation between the composition of music by electronic means with that of electronic "painting." As computer technology advanced, his art evolved into color fantasies that shared paradigms with that of music.

The next series of images is painted, somewhat more conventionally, on a row of small canvases, but they're hung very close to the floor--"at dog height," says Marcaccio (this and all subsequent comments by the artist are from an interview done for the present article).
Indeed, in the next big painting, a lurid, glowering work that Marcaccio calls an anchor to the exhibition, the silicone outcroppings are intended to be no less than the materialization of darkness.
The visible and tactile complications of this painting are manifold.

Eloquent or not, the metaphor of painting seems to be irrevocably stuck to computer-generated imagery.
But while conveniently applying the metaphor, it is rarely asked what kind of painting is actually meant and whether digitality is not redefining the very notion of painting itself.
The intention of this paper is to look at the history of the computer as “painting-machine” and the development of the painting metaphor in the discourse surrounding CGI.

Even trickier was the fact that some of my tips were close to the middle of other flames so it required some close up painting.
It wasn't perfect by any means as the paint leaked through the mask at one point (due to a shoddy mask at that location), me messing up pulling up the tape, etc, but it looks really good IMO and there's nothing I don't think I could fix by some light wetsanding or painting or polishing.
