PROCESSES OF ART

Art has three processes or three parts.

1. Pre-production

2. Production

3. Post production

Basically ang pre-production any planning and

conceptualization or research or gathering of
inspiration before the process of making the art
is called pre-production.

Production is the part where you make the art

according to how you planned it to be. Post
productions is whatever happens after the art
has been made. Either it is sold, put in a gallery
for an audience to see, or even used for
commission purposes or simply put it in your
