For example, when one object in a drawing overlaps another, the back object remains intact. Paintings are made of many separate pixels. Shapes drawn in a painting lose their individual identity and become part of the collection of pixels. For example, when one image in a painting overlaps another, the back image is permanently replaced with the front image. In a drawing, changes affect the entire selected object In a painting, changes affect only selected pixels Painting basics A painting can be a document or a frame.
