A medium refers to the materials that are used to create a work of art. The plural of medium is media. Some of the most common media are oil paints (paints that use oil to hold pigments together), tempera (pigments held together with egg yolk), marble (soft, white stone), and bronze (a metal used to cast sculptures).
A few examples of art medium:
Acrylic paint. Airbrush. Chalk. Charcoal (soft or hard) Coloured pencil. Conté Crayon.Gouache.
