A form of traditional art created by the application of paint or pigments to a solid surface, typically using a paint brush (however, other tools, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes may be used to apply paint). The type of paint used (e.g. watercolour or gouache) can dramatically change the look of the painting.

In many cases, a painted piece may also involve other traditional media in its creation, such as pencils or pens for line art.
