bruno Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Panel painting involved a painstaking process.Wooden planks were joined and covered in guesso to make them fit for painting on.On this surface,the artist would sketch the composition with chalk,refine it with inks,and then begin the deliberate process of applying layers of egg paint tempera. The word deliberate is closest in meaning to- 1)decisive 2)careful 3)natural 4)unusual I can't decide btw 1) and 2) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kindergartenkid Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 well bruno, i will try to explain why the answer is 2 in a little bit more detail. The statement is "sketch the composition with chalk,refine it with inks,and then begin the deliberate process of applying layers of egg paint tempera" If you read the context, it clearly suggests an inclination towards being cautious, so the corresponding answer "careful" should jump out. I feel is one needs to read around the bolded word to understand the subtle meaning it potrays. Let me know if i was not so helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
