Learning how to paint … how to links

Here are some links I’ve found useful when trying to learn how to paint.

I should stress, what I’m looking for are practical techniques and artistic motivations: I’m not really looking for “inspiration” or “follow me” guides.

So, if there’s a tutorial, I’m expecting it to give reasons why and some examples of what the outcomes of different approaches might be. If an artist says why they are using paint for expression, as opposed to (say) drawing in pastels, then I’m interested.

Ok, so here’s some I found earlier (more when I come across them):

• www.artpapa.com – lesson in “classical” oil panting – a rose
• painting.about.com – hints & tips for good oil painting
• painting.about.com – pain like (a few of) the old & modern masters
