To paint like the old masters was always my aim since childhood-self-thaught-artist

To paint like the old masters was always my aim since childhood

Artwork by Harald Brumberg

I started to paint with oil colors when I was ten years old as an autodidact. I always liked the old masters like Rembrandt, Rubens and Dürer.

As a teenager I wanted to become a portrait-painter. After finishing school I went one year to Paris to study arts.
Quite often I was visiting the Louvre, fascinated by Mona Lisa.

Later I became an art therapist. Sketching and painting is something I do from time to time. I also like sketching caricatures.
Art is the ground of being free and to be a creator. To paint like the old masters was always my aim since childhood.
But I havn’t practise my skills very much. …

I am a boy with a hobby in drawing and sketching

Artwork by Mitchell

My name is Mitchell. I am a 20-year-old Australian boy with a hobby in drawing and sketching. Mundane as this description sounds, I like to keep things simple ( it’s what Leonardo solicits after all; “Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication”).

However, I should amend drawing and sketching isn’t an entirely appropriate way of describing the hobby. I am more in the habit of trying to cultivate skills to clearly express the unique ideas that cross my mind almost daily. …

I am passionate about painting

Artwork by Diana Licon

I have been painting for a number of years exploring a variety of mediums and styles. Art is healing for me through many instances in my life, including the drowning death of my only child. I do not have a child to leave behind, but can create artistic “children” that may last for hundreds of years.

I currently work in both oils and acrylic. I am exploring impasto techniques and have read that the old masters have explored and incorporated impasto in their work. I believe that Rembrandt, Titan and Rubens are a few who found value in this technique. I would like to learn more about this topic too. …

I want to paint like the Old Masters

Artwork by Nicolas Rodriguez

I’m a 28 years old painter from Santiago, Chile.

They say that to be a master at something the simple formula is: do what you love, and do it at the best of your abilities. Painting is my “what I love”.

When I see a painting by an Old Master, be it Rembrandt, Rubens, Titian, Hals, Degas, etc. something is stirred in me and the beauty and dedication of this masters to their works stirs something inside of me and makes me more noble.

I want to paint like the Old Masters. …
