When I first began painting some 10 years ago, I remember my first trip to my local art supply store. I recall my feeling of utter confusion as I perused the aisles. This particular art store had every tube of paint, brush, medium and canvas known to man, far too many choices for a confused beginner. After several moments, a sales person came by and began to assist me in finding the supplies I needed. To make a long story short, I left the store 30 minutes later with a box full of supplies, half of which I had absolutely no idea what to do with. I wish I knew then what I know now. I could have saved myself a lot of money. |

Once you have selected your canvas or panel and set your palette, you have only to pick up some color on your brush or knife and begin to paint. It's as simple as that. Of course, how you hold your brush or knife and the manner in which you apply paint to canvas can make a very great difference in the kind of picture you will paint. But there is no one approved way and artists tend to be even more individual in their painting habits than in their handwriting. |

Do you know what kind of photos you will take? Are you going to a family meeting or gathering? Do you want to see some wildlife going out for a hike? When it comes to photography there are many questions. To provide the best photograph, you will want to have a basis of photography techniques and once you are ready with basis of photography the subject will be left to you. The majority of the photographers whether they are professional or part-time will have medium to work with. It applies the same with other artists; such as painters, sculptors, sketch artists, & more. Photography is an art & hence requires an eye for the correct or exact photograph. |

Oil paint is an amazing versatile medium. It can be applied in a thick buttery fashion or thinned down to a watery consistency. This versatility opens the door to a number of different painting techniques. |
