I am finally able to paint what I have envisioned

Artwork by Robin Oliver

… I am certified in Scientific Illustration and have recently completed an Associates degree in Graphic Design, though these are merely tools and methods, they will not take me where I need to go without the soul power found in the depth, elegance and lavish detail utilized by the Renaissance masters. …

… The knowledge that you offer in your Old Masters Academy course would allow me to endow my paintings with a more robust sense of realism, to create a visual space which the viewer could almost enter and also act as a door way through which I can finally pass and find myself in the long awaited companionship of the of the blue moon.

I have never had any painting classes before this course

I have never had any painting classes before this course

Artworks and story from Alexandra Martins

Hello Natalie! 

It has been a while since I started this online oil painting course, but my job (I’m a military) has taken a turn and I haven’t been able to paint much. Anyway, I’ll return home soon, I hope, and I’m already pulling my sleeves up to continue this course, can’t wait to be able to do that!

I have never had any painting classes before this course and I’ve already learned a lot from it.

I have decided to send you my artworks for critique.

Painting by Trix Render

Without art, life is hell

I am self taught and started painting in 1999. Recently, after a visit to Vienna, I became intrigued and a bit obsessed by skin tone… and realised that it was the art of glazing that captured my imagination.
The Old Masters captured this so well and are a constant inspiration.

So, for a couple of years, this is what I have been doing, or shall I say attempting to do..art is my therapy, my best friend, my only..every day.

I want to be able to paint well, not for an audience, bur for myself..I have learned quite a bit from the academy and hope to use it for the rest of my life. …

Oil Painting by Teresa Regil

From pediatric dentist to artist

Painting is life to me.
I retired from dentistry to take care of my husband.
To manage stress I discovered I was able to paint.

I took the web art academy classes for oil portrait and loved it. …
