I would like to impress people with my art

I live in Croatia where is very bad art education. In Croatia, there is only one academy of art and four art schools. I have been surrounded by art all my life and art made a lot of influence on me.

My dad has when he was younger painted some paintings and made some wooden sculptures what were in the time displayed in the school, my mother has been fascinated by photography.

My challenge is to paint or draw something that I like and stop painting paintings that would people with some knowledge of art call pure ugliness. I would love to learn the techniques of the old masters and how to properly use art materials.

I would also like to impress people with my art. …
