What Old Masters Academy students are saying

Old Masters Academy is a great place to learn how to paint in oils the professional way.

Our students notably improve their art skills after watching the video lessons and doing assignments under personal guidance of the academy tutors. In this course, students learn traditional oil painting techniques that are no longer taught in contemporary art colleges. They discover time-proven methods of oil painting that were developed by the old masters and learn how to use those methods and techniques when painting with modern materials. These new skills help our students to create better paintings, attract more commissions and become professional artists.

Old Masters Academy review by Lucas

… I often catch in myself a strange feeling of anger and irritation when I go to the openings. I ask myself why someone less talented is doing exhibitions, and I do not. The truth is that I can’t quit my job and start painting full time. There’s no guarantee I could earn enough money to cover my mortgage and life expenses. …

… How to apply glazes and what underpainting should be prepared beforehand turned out to be a big revelation for me. Before the Old Masters Academy course, I had no idea that to paint a naturalistic skin, I have to juxtapose various glazings of various transparency. Instead, I tried to mix the right color on a palette and then blend accurately one tone into another directly on the canvas. …

… I do not want to make any guesses what will come to me in my near future. Will I find the courage to change something in my life or not? Who knows? In that regard I’m a very cautious person. But ideas about changing my career path have visited me more and more often.

Amazing course! Old Masters Academy review by Pauline

Old Masters Academy course student

… A year ago I began studying this wonderful course. I read and listened over and over again all the art lessons and art history. I was overwhelmed by all the information and precision of the art lessons. So much to learn and practice. Let me tell you, I was pretty scared. I had a lot of work ahead of me, but I enjoyed it so much.

Even if I’m retired, I am a very busy lady. I took my time and went through nearly all of the lessons and did the exercises. My goal was to paint a portrait in the style of the 16th century. …

… A happy member and student of the Old Masters Academy.

It is never too late – Painting at the age of 71!

Ivo, the Old Masters Academy student

My name is Ivo Bulicic, age 71, now finally enjoying enough quality time to revert to my ever-lasting passion-painting. My carrier of Master of Electrical/Mechanical engineering, as it could be expected, has not been an inviting environment for practicing necessary techniques, nevertheless I’ve been striving as much as I could. I am now happy to be able to advance into more complex techniques and knowledge. …

Old Masters Academy review by V. Salonen

Artworks Before and After the Old Masters Academy course

Unfortunately, I do not have any “before” artworks to showcase as I just started on my artist’s way. I always thought that to draw you have to be an artist, and for me, as an IT support engineer, there is nothing to do with a pencil apart from making notes. I become an IT support engineer because it was my parents’ wish. I could not have my own opinion on this subject because as they put it, I was “too young to know for sure what is good for me and what is not.”…

My greatest hope is to become a self-sufficient artist. I’m twenty-eight right now, and I have calculated that I need at least three years of painting and preparing a strong portfolio of artworks to change my current profession for my dream occupation—to be an independent artist, specifically a portrait painter. …
