The history of art is a long and winding story, but it can be traced back to our ancestors.
The first paintings were found in caves and were created by our ancestors, tens of thousands of years ago. They were mostly pictures of animals but also included pictures of people and everyday life. The paintings show that humans have always been creative beings who wanted to express themselves through art. These paintings were made by using natural pigments such as ochre, iron oxides, charcoal, and manganese oxide on rock surfaces.
Throughout history, artists have been using different media to create artworks. The most common media are paintings and sculptures. Art has evolved tremendously over the years, and so has the way we approach it.
