In the Renaissance artists began to show perspective in their paintings and used better paints and glazes on canvas. Most mid evil art is flat, on wooden panels using egg tempra(this is why they look green today) and didn't use perspective. Artists began to use focus to draw the eye to an area of the painting. The Last Supper is a perfect example of this use of focus and his use of perspective.

Lalaloopsy dolls are not very lifelike at all. They have buttons for eyes and what looks like 'yarn' for hair. Their heads are way over sized and their limbs are very skinny. Rather than looking lifelike, they look like a rag doll.

How was renaissance art differ from medieval art?

Medieval art was mostly religious and concerned with conveying Christian beliefs and values. Renaissance art was less focused on religion and more focused on the daily life of people. The style of renaissance painting itself was also much more realistic than medieval art, meaning that renaissance artists were very concerned with proportions and showing the details of their subject.The Renaissance was a period of revolutionary change in politics, science, religon and especially art. The biggest difference between Renaissance art and Medieval art was the focus on artisitic realism. Famous artists like Davinci and Michelangelo developed the use of depth and perspective drawing. The idea of foreshortening was also discovered here. The Renaissance also allowed a time for artists to focus their craft more on the world and the nature of man opposed to religion and secular beliefs. Art also helped the economy because art socially reflected how wealthy a family was to others. There are 6 main charcteristics surrounding Renaissance art that differentiates it from medival art, which are: the use of expression, the use of perspective ("vanishing point"), the use of classicism (Greek/Roman influenced), emphasis on the individual, the geometrical arrangement of figures and the use of shadowing. Medival art was beautiful, but Renaissance art was very 3 dimentional and life-like. Michelangelo's David sculpture is said to be so realistic that it looks as though it is breathing. It is truly amazing that someone could have sculpted that beautiful statue out of one solid piece of marble. This is how Renaissance art greatly differs from Medieval art.
