Each of us wishes to purchase art and display in our homes as this has become a status symbol. Easy availability of artworks and reasonable prices have made art affordable and it can be bought by even the middle class. Art prints are much cheaper than the original art works and look the same as the originals when framed. The most difficult question is how to select art? we all have certain tastes and likes and dislikes. Some prefer cool colour scheme and others like reds and oranges to spice up their energy levels. The area available int he home or where the artwork is to be displayed is most important factor in selecting art. A large wall can accommodate large artworks but a small wall a big painting will be a totally misfit. Also consider the total decor of the room and the colours on the walls. Then select paintings either to go in harmony with these colours or contrast to create a focal point in the living room. It is also advisable to consider our personal choices and likes. Most...

What is an Artist's Block? it is the feeling when however much you sit to make a painting you are not able to do it.Either the motivation level is low or the environment is very busy and other demands for the mind are more hence the artist is unable to focus on work and thus faced with a mental block. You sit for hours and think with the colours spread out and many images for ideas and a blank canvas but you don't get any ideas. Tip one RELAX you are not out to win a race.

Cleaning of brushes has created a lot of problems for me. I have lost many good brushes due to not being able to clean them properly. After lots of trial and error methods and sacrificing a good number of beautiful brushes I have come up with some important tips for cleaning and maintenance of brushes. 1)Very very important always keep brushes for oil paints and water colour separate. Never use them alternatively as oil paint brushes have to be cleaned using turpentine or other solvent whereas water colours can be washed with plain water.

Keeping the end part down in a box or container that is tall enough for the sizes of brushes you use takes care of the hair as well as it is easy to take out whichever brush is required. 3) Always wash brushes thoroughly after every use to remove all residues of colour. When colours remain on the brushes, whichever type of co...

Every artist develops their own style of painting. I am more comfortable to work with oil paints on canvas. Though whenever there is crunch for art materials I go in for works on paper. Sometimes I have also used water colours and crayons. There are many types and techniques artists use for producing master pieces. Even at home you can easily make a piece of art by using different techniques of painting. Brush and paint style is the most universally accepted and usually all artists have works using paints and brushes. Strokes may vary and shapes of strokes may vary as well as layering of colours may also bring different results. The tip of the brush that is the other end is also very useful to produce art. Sponge pieces, cutouts of vegetables and stencils can also be used to produce attractive art works. Textured paintings are also  hot selling in the art world. Any artist must try different mediums and techniques in their early years of painting. This will help them to open up ...

Painting since year 2000 the journey not so easy by more of an inner self discovery one, I am sharing here in this post how to begin an art career. The new upcoming artist are fresh from the college of arts or self taught artists who have not exhibited their works in a gallery. Painting takes its own course and the artist struggles to prove their identity by expressing themselves with colour. Art materials and resources are costly and sometimes the new artist struggles with giving more works and the materials available. The cost of art resources and no exposure may lead the artist to become demoralized as it is very difficult to enter into the art industry. Technical know how and expenditure incurred in putting up an exhibition is not easy and the artist is already in the process of establishing a style of painting and does not be able to focus on the marketing or selling aspect. Here small works on paper come handy. People around you, your friends and relatives who are also y...
