Old Masters Academy

Realize your passion, and make it happen!

Realize your passion, and make it happen!

Story by Elizabeth

To tell you about myself, and my love of art, would take a lifetime. However, I shall try and give you a brief synopsis. My love for art started very young. Even at a young age, I wanted to learn how to draw and paint, just like the old masters. I would try to learn all I could about the old masters, not only their life but how they painted and why. I would spent hours trying to find out anything that I could, to help me learn. But, my yearning was never to be fulfilled. For the family I was born into, wasn’t a happy one. On the outside, people assumed we were happy and had a loving, caring family. But behind closed doors it was quite the opposite. I tell you this, not for pity, but to help you understand just where art takes place in my life.

Realize your passion, and make it happen!

I may not be educated in fine art, but even in the darkest hours of my life. Art has always been there. Helping keep me calm or sane in the turbulent storm that seemed to never end, in my childhood. That love and appreciation for art, and the yearning to learn is still present, and very strong. Art means so much to me, that I simply cannot express it in words. It (art) is my friend, its where I go to relax, to remind myself that there are people in the world who care, that not everything is dark or dreary. It remind me, day after day, that even though I can not see the silver lining, its there. Patiently waiting, to be revealed at the opportune time and place.

I will not and can not say, that I won’t be challenged. For, I know that art will challenge me. But in what ways? I do not know. As far as, what I want to learn, in art; that would be a list of the ages. I want to learn all I can. I want to delve deep into the ocean that is fine art, and never come out. I can’t really say what I want to learn specifically, for fine art exists not only in drawing and painting. But in sculpture, music, dance, theatre, photography, and yes even literature. But for now, I will just start where I can, and go from there.

In all honesty, I cannot tell you (in words) why I want to win the web art academy course. But, I do know, that even if I do not win, my love and yearning won’t just blow away like a tumbleweed. I will be successful one day, and get this course, either by winning or paying for it. And finally, truth be told, I have no idea why people should vote for me. I have no art lessons, or works. I am just your “average joe”. With a love for fine art.
