Learn to Draw & Paint - How & Where to Study to Be an Artist
If you go to the web and Google (search) "learn to draw" you get to choose from 4,880,000 web sites (at least that's what I found while writing this article). By the time you try it, there will likely be more.
If you do a web search using Google for the term "learn to paint" Google showed 854,000 web sites in the light blue bar at the top of the page under the "Google" logo.
There are degree granting and non-degree granting art schools, art schools with classrooms and online art courses. Some non-degree art courses give "Certificates of Completion."
Finding an art school course to learn to draw and paint that suits your personal needs, budget and available time is a challenge.
Here is a list of some of the options:
Option 1: A way to learn drawing and painting is to go to an art school, college or university like Pratt Institute (campuses in Brooklyn and Manhattan in New York City, USA where I graduated and later taught). Two issues for many people are the time and money needed. The Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree I took at Pratt now costs over $100,000.00 USD for the four year degree program. Of course, this web article is viewed by a worldwide audience. To see the great art schools around the world, there is a very good listing of them on the Saatchi Gallery web site page titled: "Art Colleges around the World: Universities, Visual Arts, Fashion and Design Institutions." The Saatchi Gallery Art Colleges page web site address is listed on the links page in the resource box at the bottom of this article.
The Saatchi Gallery list includes the college I graduated from (Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York City, USA) and art schools in many countries all across the world. The Saatchi Gallery art school listings had 57 pages with thousands of art schools listed when this article was written.
Option 2: Take a local art course either at a private art school, a local high school, secondary school or college. Of course, some localities don't offer that option and the skills of the teachers are important, so you need to get recommendations and check these teachers out before you enroll. You can Google these choices, ask neighbors, friends and teachers in schools near you. You might also get recommendations from art clubs if you have them in your locality. Some artists give private art classes to individuals or groups. I used to give private group lessons in the basement of my home.
Option 3: Just pick up a pencil or oil paints and start drawing and painting. This works for some people like Grandma Moses (Anna Mary Robertson) who taught herself how to paint starting at age 81. See the article about her on Wikipedia (address of Grandma Moses article on Wikipedia is listed on the links page in the box at the bottom of this article). Grandma Moses had no art training and her paintings, originally priced at $5.00 to $10.00 USD, now sell in the $10,000.00 to $60,000.00 USD range and her annual income was said to be $500,000.00 USD in the late 1950s. Grandma Moses died in 1961 at the age of 101.
Option 4: Buy some art books and/or video tapes on how to draw and how to paint at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble online or at your local book store and learn to be an artist. I once had a teacher who said take a few weeks in art school learning the basics (which end of the brush to use, etc.) and paint 200 pictures and you'll be an artist. This works for some people.
Option 5: Online distance learning art courses are for students unable to attend on-campus classes. Online art courses provide flexibility as to when students study and practice and when they complete lessons. Some offer degrees and some hobby courses issue certificates of completion. Some consist of totally online step-by-step how-to lessons the student follows to teach themselves. Others send the students art textbooks, art supplies and lesson plans. The student reads the art textbooks and follows the recommended drawing and painting practice sessions. Next, the distance student completes and mails their assigned drawing or painting to their school. An instructor at the school draws or paints a critique with comments of each of the student's assigned picture and mails the student's work and critique to the student.
Option 6: There is a new kind of art school using the web to interactively teach drawing and painting.
A digital camera is included in each student's sign up kit along with art textbooks and art supplies. Students who have their own digital camera deduct the cost of the digital camera, usually supplied with the course, from the tuition cost. The kit is mailed to the newly enrolled student. The student works at home, reading the art textbooks, practicing, and then doing the assigned lesson artwork from the assignments they get in their personal web folder on the school web site.
The student takes digital photos of their completed lesson artwork for each lesson and then sends those photos as email attachments to the school.
The art teacher at the online art school draws or paints a critique of the emailed student's lesson artwork with comments on how the student might have better understood the lessons taught in the art textbooks and supplemental on line mini-lessons. That painted or drawn critique of each student's submitted artwork is posted to the school website, a personalized how-to-do-It-better critique for the student to see 24/7/365. The student's submitted drawings or paintings and the teacher's critiques are shown on in the student's personal web folder at the school's web site.
Subjects covered are drawing, form, composition, color theory, perspective, still life, landscape drawing and painting as well as drawing and painting the figure.
This school offers a "Certificate of Completion" and a CD with all of the student's submitted work, all of the critiques by the teacher and suggestions for continued growth as an artist on completion of the full art course.
The author has painted and taught for 50 years and has had over 30 art exhibits of his paintings. My USA based online art school has students in 19 countries. I have taught art classes at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and Manhattan, USA, Fairfield University in Fairfield, Connecticut, Famous Artists Schools in Westport, Connecticut, USA. I have also lectured on various art subjects all over the USA and in Holland, Belgium, France, South Africa and Australia.

Bulgaria Under Byzantine Rule
Ivan Vladislav was a nephew of Tsar Samuil and the only one who survived after Samuil ordered to execute his brother Aron together with his entire family. Ivan Vladislav was saved by his cousin Gavril Radomir, son of Samuil. Later Ivan Vladislav murdered his cousin during a hunt and became Tsar of Bulgaria in 1015. Some historical sources claim that he murdered also Gavril Radomir’s wife and blinded his son but there are no clear evidences for that. But he murdered the Serbian Knyaz Ivan Vladimir, Samuil’s son in law, who was married to Samuil’s daughter Theodora Kossara. In the battle of Setina the Bulgarian army was defeated by Byzantine. Later the Bulgarians attack the port of Drach but Ivan Vladislav died under the walls of the city and in the same year (1018) the First Bulgarian Kingdom was annexed by the Byzantine Empire. Bulgaria was under Byzantine rule.
The first uprising against the rule of Byzantine in 1040 was led by Petar Delyan who claimed to be Gavril Radomir’s son and grandson of Tsar Samuil. The uprising did not succeed and the leader was blinded.
The second uprising took place in 1071 and was organized by Georgi Voytech, a Bulgarian nobleman who came from a family of kavkhans. But according to the Bulgarian traditions, only a direct descendant could be elected as king. Since Voytech wasn’t one, the plotters asked the Knyaz of Zeta, Michail to send one of his sons in order to become Bulgarian Tsar. In 1072 Konstantin Bodin was proclaimed Tsar by Bulgarian Boyars but his army was defeated by Byzantine army and that was the end of the uprising. Georgi Voytech was put to torture and died on his way to Constantinople.
In the spring of 1185 two brothers named Assen and Petar decided to organize another uprising. Petar (his first name was Theodor but after the coronation he took the name of Petar), the elder brother was proclaimed Tsar. In 1190 the Emperor of Byzantine, Isaac II Angel besieged the new Bulgarin capital – Turnovo. The Byzantine army was defeated several times by Assen and the Emperor himself ran for safety. After this victory Petar ceded the throne to Assen since he understood that Assen has extraordinary military skills. After his return, the Byzantine Emperor Isaac II Angel was dethroned and blinded by his own brother Aleksiy III Angel. In 1196 Tsar Ivan Assen I defeated the army of sebastocrator Isaac. Soon after that Assen (Ivan Assen I) was killed by his own cousin Ivanko (known as the killer of Assen). With the reign of Ivan Assen and Peter began the history of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom (1185-1396). After Tsar Assen’s murder, Ivanko asked help from the Emperor of Byzantine Aleksiy III Angel. But the two brothers of Assen – Petar and Kaloyan led the army to the capital Turnovo and Ivanko escaped to Byzantine. The eldest brother Petar became Petar IV, the Tsar of Bulgaria but not for long – he reigned for about a year and then he was killed by plotters.

Factors to Consider before Buying Fine Art Prints on Canvas
You can source your favorite art work from diverse places. All you need to know are the right places to look for them. When it is about fine art prints on canvas, you need to get the canvas printers right in order to get a picture that retains its perfection even after it has been printed on such a huge scale. You can even place your order for such prints on canvas online. There are a few things that you should keep in mind before ordering for such prints.
The Use of Inks:
It is necessary that you ensure that the online printing uses quality inks. The use of superior quality archival inks ensure that the prints would survive for long and are thus much better than the regular ink-jet printer inks.
The Choice of Canvas:
Canvas made of different materials is used for the purpose but you need to make sure that they are made of durable materials. Cotton and linen are the most favored materials when it comes to generating art print on canvas. You can conduct a check about the price of these materials before buying any one of them. An inexpensive canvas may not last longer than the art prints.
The Different Art Prints Available:
There are varied art prints available in the market. If you want a particular type of art print, then you can design and customize the look of the same and order for the same.
The Price Aspect:
The price aspect is certainly a point to be considered, if not one of the most important things to be considered. There are certain websites that impose hidden charges thus shooting up the bill amount by a huge margin. Hidden charges may be applied in case of gallery wrapping, rush orders, shipping and canvas treatments. You should be clear about the exact charges before you finally place your order.
Delivery of the Art Prints:
Read through the shipping details of the product when you order for fine art prints on canvas. The art prints should be delivered safely to your place without the former sustaining any kind of damage.

Paint Your Abode With Perfection
Paint colors are very influential in not only changing the look of the house but also the mood of the people living in the house. It might be very easy to say "Paint my house red or yellow or blue". But the point is that even the simplest of shade like a white comes in a range of choices. Once you are acquainted with the language of color, choosing one for your house become all the easier.
Red, yellow and blue are the three primary colors that merge to give you the color you look for. Value is the amount of white, black or grey that is added to the primary color like a "Bright" yellow. Intensity is the method to measure the amount of brightness in a color. Low intensity colors are the main color used in a room and high intensity colors form the accents. Cool blue or warm yellow is what defines the temperature of the color.
If you are looking for all the above mentioned perfection in your house paint, hiring a professional house painter is a must. A thorough research on house painters can be done by consulting a friend who has hired one in the past and has had a good experience. Ensure that he has a contractor license, find out about the amount of time he has spent in the business. It is always advisable to get quotes from two or three house painters to ensure that they are not ripping you off..Before finalizing on one house painter, cross check with various authorities who have worked with that house painter in the past and check whether they have faced any difficulties or not. Check the earlier works of the painter and most importantly find out if he is a painter who specializes in home painting or commercial works.
