Please be honest, I spend lots of time on my art, its very contemporary, do you think people will pay to have my original artwork such as this in their house?

I am currently working on a project with a friend and several contractors are wanting to know what I would charge. The biggest hurdle is how much. And does anyone have any suggestions of how to accomplish tall murals. I have airbrushed in the past so I am a little rusty. I am tittering on if I should use acrylics and hand paint them or airbrush the majority of the larger objects. For this I will need a little practice. Does anyone have any suggestions to share?

My bf started painting recently after haning around an art major all summer. He will spend hours on these paintings. Then when hes done he puts them in the closet. WHY? If I could paint that good I would show them off or sell them. He told me that painting relaxes him and gives him peace of mind. He said he doesnt do it to make money or show off to people. He did hang one up in his room but other than that nothing. He doesnt like to show other people either. Several times he spent like a week on a painting then after it was done he threw paint on it and started over! I was like why the hell did you do that? He said well I decided that I didnt like it. I could easily see all my mistakes. Why not just start a new one then? Why destroy something you spent so much time on? Can some one please explain all this to me?

I've been given oil and turpentine in order to dilute some oil paints. I've been told to mix the (linseed -- I think) oil with turpentine to the paints.

Why don't I just use only turpentine to dilute them?

Please help.

Hey guys i was going to use silkscreeningsupplies.com to pre photo emulsion 3 screens for me and then am going to print the shirts myself. Now my question is, is what types of inks should i be using, i hear that water based paint as opposed to plastisol paint is better because plastisol is very thick, but does water based paint fade? and the print would be on american apparel jersey t's.

I recently purchased an oil painting from Africa. I also purchased a frame from a major art/frame store. Should I display it without the glass or does it matter?

before you pain on the canvas, should you put a coat of something on the canvas before you paint directly on it? because i painted directly on the canvas and my paint didn't go on too smoothly! (i am used to water color and i am just now starting oils!)

I am doing a project on chuck close. Does anyone know specifically what people chuck close chose to paint? I read somewhere that he loved to paint his family members but i cant find it now. Did he have any criteria in who he chose to paint? I couldn't find something on google but i remember reading something about it.

Thanks very much for any information. I

Do you use a different blue to paint the sky or water, or do you use your favorite blue in general to paint everything?

Do you ever use two different blues on the same painting?

Rembrandt peint Bethsabée d'après un modèle vivant, sa compagne Hendrickje Stoffels, dont on reconnaît aisément le visage. L'ampleur monumentale de ce nu, à grandeur humaine, est exceptionnelle dans l'oeuvre du maître. Nudité d'un corps chéri, que le peintre se plaît à détailler dans les plis de cette chair triomphante, dont il relève l'érotisme par la légèreté transparente d'un voile et la délicatesse orfévrée des bijoux. Cette sensualité offerte à notre regard, cause du péché imminent, contraste avec l'air profondément triste de la jeune femme. La position de la tête, au profil idéalisé, a été savamment réfléchie. La radiographie du tableau nous apprend, en effet, que Rembrandt l'avait tout d'abord peinte levée vers le ciel, choix bien moins judicieux que cette douce inclinaison. Une grande part du charme du tableau réside d'ailleurs dans la tension du personnage de Bethsabée, soumise à sa destinée, et dont le regard résigné se perd douloureusement dans le vide.

My dream career is to be an art therapist, and a lot of schools which I'm applying to require portfolios. I recently had my school schedule changed to include an art class - I got "Painting I". I consider myself artistic, but painting is my weak point, especially watercolor. Does anyone have any suggestions for improving or for preparing for this class? I've already done basics with acrylic and watercolor in a multi-media art class, but nothing impressive.

This poster was popular in the 70's. A young woman with long red hair, with deep orange wrap/dress. If I remember, she is standing on a balcony with a garden in the background.
Very rich colours similar in style to Rosetti but pretty sure it's not him. Can you help please?
