Description

What will you learn in this Art and Painting Training

Module 1

In this module, you will learn all about Painting 101. People have been expressing themselves through painting for thousands of years. Even the cavemen showed great hunts or other events with paints made from berries and plants. There just seems to be an innate need to show others our thoughts, feelings, and ideas through pictures. The phrase “ A picture is worth a thousand words” is so very true.

Module 2

This module will teach you about Understanding Paints. There are two types of paints which work well on canvas. One is oil and the other is acrylic. You need to choose which painting medium you will be using. Some people prefer the oils to the acrylics. There are several differences between the two paints. The oil can take days to dry completely.

Module 3

In this module, you will learn all about Choosing Your Brushes. The first thing you need to know is there are many different types of brushes. Each one is made from different materials for the bristles. You can order sable brushes or hog bristle. There are squirrel brushes. You can buy the synthetic bristle brushes also.

Module 4

This module will teach you about Choosing A Subject. For everything in this world, there is someone who has painted it. Whether it is a person, place, or thing somewhere someone has put it to paint. It does not matter what you choose as your subject, as long as you feel comfortable painting it.

Module 5

In this module, you will learn all about Setting Up Your Studio. There are certain things you will need for your studio. The first thing is a place to paint. Every beginning artist seems to think they can bring out everything and scatter it onto the kitchen table, set up an easel, and start painting. This is great for a day or two. If you want to continue pursuing an art career or hobby, you need a place to keep everything up and ready to go. This way, any time you feel inspired all you need to do is pick up a brush and start painting.

Module 6

This module will teach you about Art Supply Resources. There are many places you can find your painting supplies. Local craft stores and artist supply houses will have many of the supplies you are looking for. When you want it to come to you, there is always the Internet. You need to compare prices when shopping online for your paint supplies. Here is a list of some of the better websites that carry an excellent variety of artist’s tools.

Module 7

In this module, you will learn all about Pay Attention to Detail. The picture above is an actual print done by my mother. This piece was taken from an oil painting she had done. You can actually see the canvas marks when you look closely at it. Look closely at this piece. The name of the painting is “Seaside Greeter”.

Module 8

This module will teach you about Enjoy Your Subject. There is one thing any artist must do when first learning to paint on canvas. This is to choose subjects which interest him. In other words, when you are painting something you do not like, it will show.

Module 9

In this module, you will learn all about Art Schools. There are colleges everywhere that have an art program. Each one can offer great instruction. If you are planning to attend a school for their art program always determine what the curriculum is and what degree you can earn. Some only offer an associate’s degree while others can offer much more. You will have to make the choice as to what you want from the school. Here is a list of art schools to consider.

Module 10

This module will teach you about BRIEF HISTORY OF PENCIL DRAWING. Using a pencil has many advantages, one of which is that it is very easy to erase one’s mistakes. There are famous people in the world who preferred to use pencils.

Module 11

In this module, you will learn all about GETTING STARTED. The age-old debate about the artist’s skills’ versus high-quality materials is still applicable even until today. Quality of tools and materials used affects the artwork.

Module 12

This module will teach you about LEARNING THE BASICS OF DRAWING AND SKETCHING. The tripod grip is the most common way of holding a pen or a pencil. Although it might be the common way of holding a pencil, many people are not doing the tripod grip correctly. The correct way to make a tripod grip is to position the pencil applying equal pressure between the side of the middle finger, the tip of the index finger and the thumb.

Module 13

In this module, you will learn all about Start Your Own Art Business. Aspiring artists may find financial and personal reward from starting their own art business. Whether starting a business centered on your photography, graphic art or paintings, basic business necessities need attention. Meeting regulations and fulfilling responsibilities related to starting a business can help you fulfil your dream with less hassle.

Module 14

This module will teach you about Steps to Creating a Successful Business from Your Art. My personal philosophy for building a long-term, successful career as an artist combines three things—a little business planning, a whole lot of marketing, and most importantly, the ability to create work that resonates with people.

Module 15

In this module, you will learn all about How to Write an Artist Business Plan. When you create art to sell, you’re running a business. For most entrepreneurs, a business plan justifies their reason for being in business. For you, creativity is your justification for making art to sell. A business plan gives you credibility as a serious businessperson by offering production, marketing and financial goals to consider for your startup.

Module 16

This module will teach you about Incorporate Your Business. When you start your own business, it is a good idea to incorporate it as a separate entity. This way, your own personal assets are protected.

Module 17

In this module, you will learn all about Getting Insurance. As stated earlier, house painting is a profession that takes strength and also incurs the risk of injury.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
