funtions of paint in the ancient agypt?

Answer 1

The function of paint was of great importance in ancient Egypt. Putting on color was an essential part of creating both statues and paintings. Why? Because with color, the images simulated life or real objects, and thus gave the appearance of being alive when rituals were performed. To obtain magical, eternal life that was the aim of almost every Egyptian image - painting, sculpture or figurine - whether it represented a god or a tomb owner receiving offerings, a bearer carrying offerings, or a trussed bull about to become an offering.
These 'living' images were meant to last forever. But paintwork is fragile and often the Egyptian artist reinforced their painted images with carved underlays. Thus, from the beginning of the dynastic period on, the two-dimensional medium of choice was not paint, but a form of fortified painting - that is to say, painted relief. The use of paint alone, in temples and tombs, was always a second best, necessary when the wall surface was unfit for carving, or when a project had to be completed quickly.

Answer 2

They painted literally everything. I believe the only 'object' that was never painted was the outside of pyramids. Those were originally covered in white 'marble-like' slates.

All statues you now see bare were originally covered in many many colors. Instead of wallpaper they covered walls in murals or wallpaper like designs. Houses outside were painted white, they still do that to keep out the heat.

They painted there faces. Make up was used by both men and women.

Answer 3

They found paint, and produce it a lot. To avoid loss, they start to be creative to finish the old stock produced.
