A, naprimer v angliiskom "to paint" - hot ', chto, hot' zabory, hot 'mashiny, hot' kartiny.
Kakoi vy lichno etomu okras pridaiote, tak vy i chuvstvuete.

In addition to "makeup", used the words - "painted", "pisnUt", "an immortal masterpiece"
 Another of slang:
"Not every artist can easily offend"
"I am a visiting artist. Popishu and go away"
"In the morning did not drink - the day-break
"A little red wine for tsvetovideniya"
Even forgot to mention the main Superstition:
If the image has fallen, then will be sold :D

"Makeup", "painted", "pisnUt", "an immortal masterpiece" - craft slang. It is commonly used with irony only to themselves and only communicating with colleagues and close friends. When people talk about other artists or other people's pictures, slang is not used. On the picture - draw. About the paintings - to write a letter, written work, work.
The painters have enjoyed such a set of words from the slang to describe the craft of pictures - loud, dull, sharp, juicy, tasty, delicately, roughly, nedotyanuto, withered, fell through, screams began to play, lost, dead, alive.

It is interesting to know what other slang words and expressions artists use? Certainly geography and national characteristics affect the craft slang.

"Pret" (any color, for example), "kicked", "get out", "climbing" ...
But sometimes is possible to hear about the color: "Sasha, take care of my yellow". :D

In English - yes, but in Russian quite differently. The same word can refer to the normative vocabulary, but can - in slang. And maybe to the Argo. All depends on the context.

With enthusiasm about other people's works: "This Thing!" "The thing took place"

On the process works: "The main thing - time to quit", "Too good - not too good," "To Catch a (transfer) character (state)"

How far away are they from the art. How deeply it at him.
You just become accustomed to commerce and politics too well, but the art is not combined.

Well, where images?

Pavel, specially for you scanned three pages - a gift to the New Year !:D

It must be him with vodka, champagne on the move (positive artistic tradition).

Igor Dzys (military-historical miniatures wrote), once said, looking at one of my painting: "How delicious would work, if the sky turn more, will be tastier. Like literate artist - "nerd ".:)" I myself often say the word makeup or painted. But like the word Levitan
 - Touch not!
 - Must feel.
