As discussed in KGT (pp. 80-81):

   What the Federation would classify as a painting--that is, a {nagh
   beQ} featuring an image not carved into it but painted onto it--is
   made by applying {rItlh} ["pigment"] ... The verb {ngoH}, meaning
  "smear" in other contexts, is used for "paint using fingers."
