In my drawings and paintings I am influenced by the old masters

Artwork by Marianna Nagy Lantos

It is my old desire to learn the techniques of the old masters.

After the birth of my children, I looked for the opportunity for home training, which I was able to do comfortably with the young children. When I saw my first Old Masters Academy training, I applied immediately and gladly. I loved the understandable, simple guidelines that made it easy to achieve spectacular success. During my studies, I liked the plant parts of the paintings, so I began to delve deeper into the world of plants and developed in that direction. Although I am currently painting with watercolor paint, I would later like to mix this knowledge Witteg oil painting and learn as much as I can. I love mineral historical pigments whenever I can, I paint with this type of paint. …

Art is the only reason for living for me

Artwork by Maria Wegorzewski Grotek

My life is ART. I have been drawing since 6 and using paint when I was 10 I was asked to paint posters and class mural painting for special events with a couple of other students. I continued my art through high school won a province wide competition to enter Ontario Art College on scholarship in Grade 12 unfortunately my parents were poor and there was no money to buy supplies for the course. I was also told by my mother I did not need an education because my career would be to marry and have children not to fill my head with learning that would only make trouble. …

I design experience to tell fantastic story

Artwork by Daigo

“Any attempt to express the unknown will utterly fail. How can one express something beyond expressions? BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS. May be a failed attempt, it is a beautiful one. That’s the beauty of living, the essence of the superconsciousness flowing through stream of consciousness. Why not express that even sky is not the limit? Spread to the every corners of possibilities this body is capable of.” Says Daigo.

how-to-paint-learning oil painting techniques

A great passion for learning oil painting techniques and everything related to it

Artwork by María Villa

… In my opinion studying the Old Masters is essential for this task. As far as I Know, precisely the arrival of the Oil Painting Medium enabled to paint the human flesh in the more realistic way, never seen before (grisaille and glazes of Primitive Flemish Masters of 15th century) With the ages, other contributions were made (sfumato of LEONARDO DA VINCI in 15th and 16th centuries, scumbling and impasto of TITIAN in the 16th, which was carried to their greatest expressions in REMBRANDT Works in the Baroque period and chiaroscuro style… What I find amazing is how despite all this different techniques and ways of painting, the resulting portraits can be so realistic.
After this, I find it would be very interesting to learn how to paint in “Alla prima” and in the Impressionist and Postimpressionist way of Direct Method, and so on. …
