Painting as a fine art means applying paint to a flat
surface (as opposed for example to painting a
sculpture, or a piece of pottery), typically using
several colors.
Drawing is one of the major forms of the visual
arts, and painters need drawing skills as well.
Common instruments include: graphitepencils,
pen and ink, inkedbrushes, wax color pencils,
crayons, charcoals, chalk, pastels, markers, stylus,
or various metals like silverpoint. There are a
number of subcategories of drawing, including
cartooningand creating comics.

Calligraphy is a type of visual art. A contemporary definition of
calligraphic practice is "the art of giving form to signs in an
expressive, harmonious and skillful manner".
Modern calligraphy ranges from functional hand-lettered
inscriptions and designs to fine-art pieces where the abstract
expression of the handwritten mark may or may not compromise
the legibility of the letters.
