Art is part of my life since my childhood

Artwork by Ildikó Karsay

… I was working as a graphic designer for 15 years, I have 3 chidren and when we lost our job I returned to art seriously. I always loved to paint together with my and other children. As they are now teenagers I have more time to dive deep into art.

I love to paint with aquarelle, acryl and silk I started oil with ‘alla-prima’ a few years ago.
Oil is different and love at first sight.
I would like to improve in oil and create beautiful portraits like old masters and find my own style with the help of professionals. …

I am a self-taught painter

Artwork by Jorge Quiros

I am Jorge Quiros, visual artist and self-taught painter, I am an art teacher and businessman trying to undertake, I am Brazilian and I live in São Paulo, I was born in 1989.

Art is my vocation, and what frees me from my own existential yearnings is, in a way, the engine of my existence; painting emancipates me and I always feel very good after painting, with a finished job, I feel that the time I spend with art is time spent for something truly important.

I always seek to express the best possible of what my intimate asks for, my best being what I most sincerely do, I seek that sincerity in painting, but combined with academic beauty, this beauty is something charming. …

I may begin to consider a career in Fine Art

Artwork by Jeff Dewine

As a kid I spent a lot of time learning art and drawing. After high school, I shifted from Fine Art and would follow up with a 24 year Career in Music. As my projects found their completions, my artistic skills returned designing Album Art, Handbills, Show Posters, Backstage passes.

Once I found the Old Masters Academy Course online….I started taking notes. I was moved by Pieter Bruegel the Elders, “Christ & The Woman Taken in Adultery.”
My first Glazing/oil painting is a copy of this painting, on a wood panel, with an acrylic matte molding medium and some burnt umber, sienna, crimson and black paint. Unfortunately my entry is my underpainting done in black watercolor . I would not have been able to finish a traditional glazing technique as I began this painting a few weeks ago…. and I need to learn how. LOL …

Drawing is my passion specialization in painting how-to-draw-paint

Drawing is my passion, but my specialization in painting has been a challenge in my life

Artwork by Ana

Since my childhood, I have felt a deep admiration for Michelangelo’s frescoes, the beauty of his designs can move even the imagination of a four-year-old, and perhaps less so.

Drawing is my passion, but my specialization in painting has been a challenge in my life. Some people think that being an artist is a waste of time or a simple hobby. Or that being a painter, does not have the same merit as a doctor, a lawyer or a high official. To banish these prejudices, it is necessary for the viewer to be captivated by the beauty of an image. And this can only be achieved, in my opinion, by imitating the ideal of the great masters. A Raphael’s Madonna, a Michelangelo’s ignudi, Titian’s landscapes, the mysterious halo of Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Botticelli’s delicate deities, communicate an idea of the grandiose, of the transcendent. …

I crave and wish to paint like the old masters

Artwork by Henry Ikiseh

My name is Henry Ikiseh, a drawing academy student, a visual artist by profession. I engage myself in drawing and painting almost every day. This is the life I have chosen and love every bit of it.

While growing up as a child I was discouraged from studying art by my dad and the society around me but due to the strong passion I have for art I never gave up my dream to become a professional fine artist. I sorted many artists as a child to teach me how to draw and paint, I felt drawing and painting is a quest I needed to fulfill in life. I would buy many comic books and copy drawings from there to make my comics, which I would sell to my friends and comic lovers for a stipend.

Art takes the first position in my life. To take away art from me is to take away my existence. I am so enmeshed in the art that my whole intellect revolves around it. …
