What’s wrong with the way your painting now? It possesses expressive strokes, a plethora of personal choices with color. Not to mention a conceptual touch which is far unreachable by many artists who are really trying for that.Your painting makes me feel free and refreshed; the aroma of the flowers is very engaging and familiar. This painting arouses senses of a simpler time; one that I think many of us can connect with even if we have never experienced it in this lifetime.Many people disagree with me but art is not about how well you paint or draw, or even write. It’s about how you express yourself with what you have available to you. From that skill begets skill and your art evolves with your growth and experiences.Which brings me to my point. Art is not just an object it’s an experience. It’s the experience of the artist made tangible and shared with the world. You are taking something very personal that lives within you and then giving it away to the world. There is nothing more beautiful and amazing than giving part of ourselves to the whole. There are no insignificant contributions.Your only limitation in your art and skills are those you are placing on it. And there is nothing, not a single thing in this world that is more important than how you feel. And how you feel is not always a truth, sometimes it’s a lie. For example the way you feel about your art. That’s a lie your telling yourself because you don’t feel like you, or your art compares to the rest of worlds standards and performance.It’s a lie. Stop telling yourself lies. Your art is beautiful, but I can tell you that until I’m blue in the face. This journey is your’s to take, not mine. I’m already walking that path and I’m learning that I don’t need to be on it anymore.Until then, appreciate your art. Love it and express yourself however you feel you want too. There’s no laws or any given prescription as to how to express ourselves. May your art always be as unique as you are; anything less and your selling yourself and the rest of us short.
I'm a beginning artist who seeks to develop an art style. How should I do so?Like someone already mentioned, your artistic style does not develop in a vacuum. Your style develops through the art you like and study. It develops through the artists you try to mimic. It develops through being a fan first and a creator next.Even knowing all this, it still amazes me when I hear other artists talk about developing their own styles. Hank Azaria, the Swiss Army knife of voice acting, creates characters by trying to mimic the way other actors and characters sound. In an interview with GQ, Hank talked about how he developed some of the characters he voices in the Simpsons. In many cases, all he was trying to do was mimic another actor's voice, but instead, they end up sounding like a unique character.Another wonderful example of this is Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino is a master of taking influences from other films using them within his own movies. Vulture created a syllabus of references Tarantino has used from Resevoir Dogs to Django Unchained. From the looks of it there are hundreds of instances where he borrowed ideas from other films. But in the end, this mixing of influences doesn't make his films unoriginal, they make his films stronger. It goes back to that old adage "Why reinvent the wheel?"The point is, you should study from the masters, mimic work you like, and evolve your style over time. Just because you start with a single style doesn't mean it can't evolve.Look at Pablo Picasso as an example. He didn't continue creating in a single style because it was successful. He experimented with his style and evolved over time.Start by mimicking styles from different artists you admire and respect. No matter how hard you try, your art will not look exactly like theirs. It will take on a form of its own. It will naturally evolve over time. Your influences will heavily affect your style. Let them.The joy in creating comes from doing things that make you happy. Don't let other people dictate what you do with your art. Follow your instincts and become your own artist through experimentation, repetition, and evolution.
What is the most intresting fact ever about artist Paul Cezanne ?
Everyone claims that islam is a discriminate religion. And they are right. Have you ever visited Mosques? the mosques are segregated, they had White man mosques, Black Man mosques, Meccan mosques, Orthodox mosques etc.. ul never c black and white musims praying together. and they have other castes as well. This is because mohamamad himself caused the divide Arab Superiority Arabs are the most noble people in lineage, the most prominent, and the best in deeds. Tabari IX 69 Inter-Arab Racism Superiority of One Tribe Over Another Narrated Jabir bin Samura: I heard the Prophet saying, "There will be twelve Muslim rulers (who will rule all the Islamic world)." He then said a sentence which I did not hear. My father said, "All of them (those rulers) will be from Quraish." Sahih Bukhari 9:89:329 Racism Against Infidel Arab Tribes The Arabs of the desert are the worst in Unbelief and hypocrisy, and most fitted to be in ignorance of the command which Allah hath sent down to His Messenger: But Allah is All-knowing, All-Wise. Qur'an 9:97 Racism Against Black People Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle said, "You should listen to and obey, your ruler even if he was an Ethiopian (black) slave whose head looks like a raisin."Sahih Bukhari 9:89:256 I heard the Apostle say: ‘Whoever wants to see Satan should look at Nabtal!' He was a black man with long flowing hair, inflamed eyes, and dark ruddy cheeks…. Allah sent down concerning him: ‘To those who annoy the Prophet there is a painful doom." [9:61] "Gabriel came to Muhammad and said, ‘If a black man comes to you his heart is more gross than a donkey's.' Ishaq 243 It is your folly to fight the Apostle, for Allah’s army is bound to disgrace you. We brought them to the pit. Hell was their meeting place. We collected them there, black slaves, men of no descent. Ishaq 450 There is so much of racism that the blacks have their own quran and the Arabs (the whites) have theirs. The following verses differ between the Warsh version (popular in Africa) and the Hafs versions (popular in Middle East) of the Quran: 7:57, 9:37, 2:259, 3:81, 6:96, 1:4, 2:140, 2:125, 3:146, 2:132, 91:15, 2:132, 3:133, 5:45, 2:139, 3:81, 2:259, 2:214, 2:9, 2:184 & 28:48. "No doubt islam shows the best examples of equality." If that is so then the quran is lying. But I think the asker is.
I learned that I can paint. This came as a surprise to both me and my wife. We had paintings in mind that we wanted to purchase (a Space Shuttle for our son's nursery and a painting of Peggy's Cove for the living room) but we couldn't find any paintings that we liked, so I figured I would try to paint them myself. Here are full resolution copies of the Peggy's Cove & Glider/Tow Plane paintings (Photographed with a DSLR). Feel free to download/print/share!Planes Only.pngPeggy's Cove.JPGUPDATE: It's been a year since I wrote this answer and I've been overwhelmed with the amazing feedback and daily encouragement in the comments. I thought I'd add some of my more recent paintings to let people know that I haven't given up!Here is a painting I did for my Mother. It's of our family homestead in Isaac's Harbour Nova Scotia. The village was a gold mining town, but now it's all but empty. My grandparents owned that red building that hangs over the water, it was the towns only store. The church in the painting was demolished last year.For my Father, I painted this scene from Prince Edward Island, where he grew up. I even painted Spacex's dragon spacecraft and started building my own frames.Thanks again to the wonderful people of Quora for all your encouragement. I'll be sure to share many of my paintings in the years to come.UPDATE #2Thanks again for all the encouraging comments, keep them coming!I thought about doing my own cover for a book I've spent the last two years writing, (UPDATE #2.5: the book is now published, and available on Amazon here: The Martian Conspiracy, John Read, Steven J Catizone, John Harten - Amazon.com).UPDATE #3Ok I've heard from many people that the spaceship looks like a penis.Thanks for the feedback, I've hired a professional artist to do the cover for the book:Update #4Ok, instead of a cover, I've decided to do some interior artwork instead. Here is a painting of an aircraft mentioned in the beginning of the book.

I need a laugh. Anything funny?
Well I have 2 jokes for ya. Enjoy! A mother is sitting in the living room reading a book when one of her children comes running down the stairs. The child goes to the mom and asks "Mom, Why did you name me Petal?" The mom replied, "When you were born, a flower petal fell on your head." And the child smiled and ran back upstairs. The second child runs down the stairs and ask "Mom, why did you name me Rose?" The mom replied, "When you were born, a rose fell on your head." And the child smiled and ran back upstairs. The third child came running down the stairs, screaming and waving his arms all around in front of the mom. The mother put her book down and angrily said, "SHH! Be quiet refrigerator!" Ha! I love this one! But here's one that's pretty dirty: A man is at a beach naked and a little girl comes running by him so he grabs a newspaper and covers up his crotch. The little girl sees this and asks the man curiously, "Sir, what is under that paper?" The man replied, "It's a bird and i don't want him to fly away." And the girl ran off. The man soon fell asleep and when he woke up, he was in a hospital and in terrible pain. An officer came in the room and asked the man if he knew what happened to him. He told him all he remembered was talking to a young girl and then falling asleep. The officer then went to the waiting room where the girl was and asked if she knew what had happened and the girl responded sadly: "Well i wanted to pet the bird but when i did, it spit at me! So i broke it's neck, broke it's two little eggs, and caught it's nest on fire!" Moral of the story? DON'T LIE TO LITTLE KIDS! Lol this was terrible but also very funny! Hope these made you laugh!
Creativity is something from inside a person improves itself in the field of creativity. Creativity is just a normal thing u can not make a painting more beautiful just by applying glass work. It might be liked by someone and may be not by some other people. Actually creativity lies in simplicity or just normally. According to Bill Gates if u ask creative people what have u done to make the thing outstanding they will not be able to answer you because they did nothing actually. They just make it normally which is normal according to them seems outstandings to others.That’s it.
Lack of a tablet shouldn’t be a deterrent to create. I have a Cintiq and that hasn’t stopped me from drawing using good old pen and paper — in fact when I’m just getting started creating something I prefer sticking to traditional tools; computers can be too distracting.Now, about transferring your analog work to computer — that usually means getting a scanner. Luckily there are many good printer/scanner combos in the market. For instance, I’ve just bought an Epson multifunctional device which scans up to a hardware resolution of 1200 dpi — more than enough considering 300–400 dpi is high end magazine print quality. Once you have your art digitized, you can tweak it at will using Photoshop, Affinity Photo or other similar software.Even so, if you are being serious about doing this on a long term basis, you should consider budgeting a graphics tablet; Wacom’s Intuos Draw is a good starter for about US$70–80. I started with its equivalent about 15 years ago and got a good run out of it.
