I want to learn how to paint what I see
Artwork by Marcelo
… I want to learn how to paint what I see but also to paint some ideas, I have wrote several poems that I wish I can paint, those images does not exist in reality but I want them to become real.

… I think Old Masters Academy is a great place to learn, the intro videos and thematic lists suggests so, also there are hundreds of online reviews recommending this amazing course.
I want to be able to paint daily
Artwork by Dona
I have painted my whole life whenever I could between raising my son and work. Recently, I have been able to do painting again but I still want to be able to paint daily. I dream of painting for a living and get to a place where I can sell paintings in a gallery. …
… Artistically I want to learn classical painting like the old masters and get faster. I do tend to be more realistic in my approach which is why I am looking into the Old Masters Academy. Where I live doesn’t allow me to find any teachers nearby that I can learn from on a regular schedule.
I know I will get solid training with your Academy. I don’t have many years left to paint so this would be wonderful.

I would like to explore various topics: for example what colors the masters of the past used, what kind of preparation they did on their canvases and so on. I am an artist for the most part self-taught, I have always tried to know all the secrets of painting but I have also attended courses with some English and other Russian masters and also an Italian, but each of them has his own technique suitable for the type of painting they do. …
I returned to drawing and painting
Artwork by Crystaline Randazzo
… I’ve been following the Old Master Academy videos and newsletters and I’m fascinated by the idea of applying old techniques to new materials and very inspired by the level skill executed in these works.
In addition, Old Master Academy offers me the opportunity to learn art anywhere while my ex-pat lifestyle means that I have to move every few years. Life abroad means constant change and transition and I rarely have the opportunity to have a consistent art teacher in many of the places I live. This is a win-win for me! …
You’re never too old to start paint!
Artwork by Mike Strickland
You don’t know anyone who is happier to be retired than I am!
When I retired in 2013, I was trying to decide on what to do with my time. My wife suggested that I should pursue my art! So I jumped in with both (size 14) feet!…
