Love painting, it’s takes a great part of my life. The learning process is long but amazing as I strive to always become better.
The old masters academy is an amazing course that would help me become better.
I started drawing to improve my technical design skills, but I had no idea I’d enjoy it this much!
Artwork by Alara Deniz
I’m currently working towards finishing my mechanical engineering masters degree while working part-time. I started drawing fairly recently in order to improve my technical design skills, but I had no idea I’d enjoy it this much! Drawing is a form of meditation for me. It doesn’t only make me a happier person, but it also makes me a better engineer by teaching me to be a better observer.
I’ve been drawing with ink and charcoal for the 14 months, and I’d been feeling a bit intimidated by the idea of painting until recently. I tried watercolor before. Although I appreciate it very much, I want to create more depth and texture, hence I want to learn oil painting. …
Art is my source of joy and hopefully my source of income
Artwork by Marco Cuenco
I am a young artist and I have just kick started my art career.
Modern art schools do not have proper techniques and I would love to learn the techniques in Old Masters Academy course. Art takes a serious place in my life, basically it is my everything.
My challenges are when people think that I am not a serious artist. I am also financially unstable and I cannot afford this course.
I struggle with proportion and anatomy. People enjoy my artworks but for me I am personally not happy with the outcome. I am simply having a hard time teaching myself. I want to learn the techniques of the Old Masters taught by Natalie Richy because I want to have a more expanded knowledge of art and I am a huge follower of Natalie. …
Painting from Anet Louw
To live a childhood dream
I am a South African self-taught artist, who since childhood dreamed of becoming an artist. I stopped working full-time in 2006 in order to pursue this dream.
Art is my joy and life, art is also the way I can glorify my God.
I do struggle with applying the right colours, when should it be cool and when should it be warm. I do not have the financial means to take art lessons and learn as much as I can from Library Books and free on-line lessons. …

Art, as much as every kind of knowledge, is an internal and eternal processing…
As far as I remember, I loved to paint. Figures and portraits mostly and sometimes landscapes. Art was not a way to earn a living according to my family though, so I followed totally different paths. I studied Education and Sociology, had a family, moved a lot through Greece.
9 years ago I settled down to a beautiful small town by the sea, at western Greece. Here I decided to start painting, since I never gave up my dream all these years. Having no teachers at all troubled me a lot. For example I didn’t know there was such a thing as “medium” to help me apply my thick Titanium white on canvas! …
Old Masters Academy review by Stephanie-Gabrielle Sneed
The methods demonstrated in this course will have direct and immediate impact on my work
Before taking the class, my art skill level is of great potential. I enrolled into this online Art Academy to learn museum quality painting techniques.
I learned so much from the Old Masters Academy — traditional methods like glazing, wet on wet, wet on dry, scumbling and application, plus much more! Also the mixes for flesh and tones will come in handy. …
