How are the paints in my paint box made?

The paints in a paint box are usually watercolors. They are made out of different things such as ground-up colored earth, rocks, and dyes -and then mixed with a gum to hold it all together.


Colorful oils
Oil paints are usually made from the same things as water paints, but oil is used instead  of water to hold the paint on the paper or canvas. Oil paints dry much more slowly than water paints.


Picture perfect
  • Portraits are pictures of people.
  • Landscapes are pictures of places.
  • Still life's are close-up pictures of everyday objects, like fruit.
