Introduction Visual and performance arts help artists to pass information and meanings that people cannot learn through the study of other disciplines. It uses creative thinking techniques that depend on human imaginations, discoveries, and opinions. This discipline gives learners opportunities to think critically, formulate goals, and choose appropriate media to use in passing messages. In addition to passing messages, they help individuals to explore thoughts and cultural practices hence, develop efficient creative thinking, teamwork, and administration skills. Artists use varied modes to create and express ideas. Painting Painting is the art of using paint or color pigments to express specific concepts by artists. In painting, artists need to know how different paints convey messages and how to blend different paints to convey the desired artistic message. Panting involves varying visual elements and techniques. Paints are of two categories: mineral spirit and water paints. Artists use different painting techniques to express desired messages, they include oil, watercolor, wall painting, and acrylic painting. Oil painting is a common technique by artists. It gives several color preferences mostly mixed with drying oil. The Number of oil pigments used by artists depends on the desired effects to be expressed by the painting. Oils never easily wear out, and they give the artist enough time for reworking. The watercolor painting uses water as the thinner. Overlapping of colors in this technique is impossible. In addition, it limits the artist to apply the technique on some surfaces that do not easily dry. Unlike water painting, acrylic painting gives artists opportunities to choose different colors. Its rate of drying is faster as compared to oil painting and it maintains color pigments, unlike oil painting where the paint may turn yellow as it dries. Lastly, in fresco (wall painting), pigments used are suspended in water. It is the most difficult painting technique because it is not reversible. Once used artist cannot modify the painting (Book rags, 2006, Para. 1-2). For paintings to maintain their subject matter, painters must include features that make the painting unique and pleasing. These elements are texture, arrangement of lines, tones, shapes, and colors. Painters use lines to show ends where planes intersect. They help to create movement and texture. Tonal variations create varying moods and emphasis specific emotions. In addition, artists use visual styles (texture) to give paintings appealing diverse looks (Oopt, 2006, Para. 1-16). Music Music is an art that performs a verbal part of performing arts using sound as the main medium of conveying messages. Musicality determines how well music content expresses varying emotions. It should have ideas that are self-sustaining for it to convey messages and emotions correctly. The common music elements are pitch (controls melody and organization), dynamics, rhythm (made of pulse and accents), and helps to create musical patterns. On the other hand, harmonies in music give music continuous tones of sound hence, an interesting flow. The importance of music depends on the culture and social groupings. Commonly used music techniques are the motet, cantata, opera, and oratorio. Artists express Cantata using movements; hence, it is mainly choral with a single or many soloists, accompanied by an instrumental ensemble. A motet is a music technique that uses Latin manuscripts; it is choral but polyphonic with a chorus, orchestra, and a vocal soloist. Oratorios are in form of narrative t
