win a mentorship of Old Masters Academy-self-taught-artist

Help me win a mentorship of Old Masters Academy

Artwork by Lidija

… My biggest artistic challenge is to create what I feel, the drawing itself, the realism is so new and did realize I need good foundations, to be able to create the good quality art.

I want to learn the new skills of realism, because I would like to combine that with my abstraction work. I’m exited to get to see the art history again…. Do you imagine how amazing it must be to get involved into discovery how Old Masters did paint with light? Absolutely amazing. I would love to be a part of this.

Old Masters Academy™ is a life time chance to get a mentor and a good quality program curriculum. …

I used to draw all the time

Artwork by Lalo Celi

I have always loved art. When I was a kid I used to draw all the time, but never worked with paintings until one of my daughters asked me to paint something for her. …

… I am self-taught, but I do understand that I need to learn from people who know and can teach the techniques that I admire from the masters, I need to learn from the best.

I want to learn the techniques of the masters, glazing, imprimatura. I have always admired artists like Rembrandt, Peter Paul Rubens, and many other from that era.

I have seen the results from many of the Old Masters Academy students, and the evolution of their technique is amazing, it is what I want.

how-to-paint-become painter like Leonardo da Vinci

My dream was to become a painter like Leonardo da Vinci

Artwork by Valentina Minniti

Long story short, since early infancy I had been dedicating to drawing. For the little girl I was at the time, copying what I could see around me was a silent yet invigorating activity, and as time went by I started to flicker with the idea of studying figurative art. My dream was to become a painter like Leonardo da Vinci.

However, for a 13-year-old girl family’s support is very important and I was talked out of such prospects since “drawing is just a hobby!”, “it is so silly”, “you’d better grow up!” and so on. So I dropped drawing and dedicated to completely different studies and interests. …

… I am constantly struggling with such issues, but I know now I want to be a figurative painter and drawer, and am currently learning about old techniques and materials, with a special insight on Leonardo and Jan Van Eyck’s oil painting techniques. …

Pain in the Arts

Artwork by Andrew Gruffudd

I am an artist, actor, artists’ model, composer, singer and writer basically trying to be the best that I can possibly be. Artistic expression, in all its forms is therefore, as you can see, at the core of my being. My mother, before me, was an artist and still paints to this day, ‘though her impressionist style is not where I want to lay my beret. …
