How to paint like the Old Masters using modern materials
… In the digital era the web offers and incredible platform for learning inexistent when I was at college and I’m sure even my instructors at the time didn’t have the skill base one encounters on the web.
Old Masters Academy course seams to offer exactly what I need to fill the gap where I lack knowledge and the prospect of entering the course is very rewarding. …
Hello I am an artist, I live in Naples and I am really interested in the old technique of the masters! that I already use for my paintings but if I win I will be really happy to know your techniques too !!
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’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! …

… Finally, there is time, so at 73 years old I am now pursuing a new, full-time career as an artist! …
“Since I was a child, drawing and painting has been a passion of mine, but life has only now presented me a change to embrace this passion. With some effort, I can now work and study at the same time, I admit that is very difficult in terms of time and expenses, but my heart smiles to me at the end of the day.
My name is Marianne Schilstra, 53 years of age, married with a farmer and I live in the northern part of The Netherlands. Since my childhood, I like drawing and painting. But due to life circumstances, there was not always time for it and I was’t allowed to join the Art Academy by my parents unfortunately.
I’d like to learn more skills like painting how the Old Masters did it.
I really love your painting and drawing academy and the way you teach art online. And who wouldn’t want to get a chance to win this wonderful Old Masters course. …
