Painting

I have 3 painting by an artist that signs his name as H. Schmid. The H stands for Hans. Two of the paintings were done in 1949 the third one doesn’t have a date. They are landscape paintings. How can I find out more on H. Schmid? I’ve gone to antique dealer and the artist is listed in some databases. He appears to have been born in 1903 in Germany. Some paintings have been sold at auction according to the antique dealer I went to, but without any dollar amounts listed. But there is no other information about the artist in the databases. The paintings were my grandparents, then my mothers, and now mine. I’ve done some research at my library and still can’t find out anything other than when he was born.

I understand warm and cool colors, complementary, primary, secondary, and teritiary colors, but what is the rule when painting? Does every color you use need to have the complementry? Does every color need to be in every tone and value?

my moms friend was painting my house wall and left the bucket of full water which was used to wash the paint brush roller. Now the bucket is full of dirty paint water with the brush (in my washroom!) and its NEAR my room. Im afriad it might cause health problems so i wanna ask if i should cover it up with a bag or something cause i told my mom to move it out of the washroom but she said her friends going to use it soon so dont touch it....... and got all mad. So yeah my question is should i cover the bucket and the brush loaded with dirty paint water with a bag? thx

Extra details: the probem is my mom is weird and doesnt want me to move the brush with the bucket of water in the garage because she said the brush roller needs to be in water 24/7 and wont let me touch it.

do you work intuitively allowing the painting to emerge and develope as you are working on it making discoveries along the way. Have you tried both? If so, which works best for you and why?

Most of the 'favorite' lists here are about old or dead artists.
I love some older works, but my main interest is in emerging or mid career artists who are producing good work right now.
Here are a few of my favorites:

Gerard Priault
Louise Dandurand
Catherine Perdreau
Tony Mascardelli
Roberto Bernardi
Ken Danby
Michael Pape
Qing Zhang

I usually have a hard time painting trees or shrubs in a landscape. It always turned out to be very bright green or green but does not show a realistic effect of trees or shrubs. I want to paint it in a realistic or even impressionistic style. I would like to know the pallete of colors I can use. Like yellow and black will make a green. Green plus blue plus black will show a color of a pine tree. Any answer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm doing an art project and I'm researching on something(s) / pictures and whatever you can think of that depicts emotional coldness. Try not to be too literal but thanks anyway. :)

I accidentally dropped a chinese guohua painting while I was hanging it, and now there are a lot of wrinkles I can't get out of the paper. How can I make the paper appear smooth without ironing or any techniques that will damage the painting?

I'm 16, and I require spray paint in order to complete an art project... no graffitti, honest! However, I need to know if I can actually buy cans of spray paint before I start so I'm wondering what the minimum age is, anyone know it? Thanks

My parents have given me an old oil painting on wood that they had in their attic. It is of a young serving girl in wooden clogs holding a jug and looks very old; similar to a 16th century Dutch artist. The signature looks like Ritter or Ritte but I cannot find anyone by that name. Has anyone heard of this name?

They're standing on grass with a look of anticipation or alert. I believe the artist's first name is Thomas? They are draped in linens and are barefoot.

Today I was exsaming the Mona Lisa portriat, I was browsing the net on who she might be. My theory is that she is Leonardo de Vinci`s grandmother. Her name was Monna Lucia. I belive that he drew her to where she looked younger. Any other theory`s???

I am sure this screen is either late seventeenth cent or early eighteenth. I sent photo to smithsonisn and they replied that it is probably l9th cent since most of them are, a simplistic approach at best. The last empress, the dowager grandmother is represented. It has a beautiful famille rose pallette, unusual. There seems to be so little actual scholarly information on this subject, one wonders why.

I was wondering if it is possible to paint over a pencil drawing with watercolor. I enjoy both mediums but am not sure what would happen if I combine them.
