How to paint using one color, and more how to advice for artists

I’ve been working on drawing and painting again. During this work, I’ve collected a fair amount of good links on the subjects. Take a look:

• One way to ease into painting is to focus on one color. Here’s some good guides on monochrome painting: how to paint in monochrome, on monochrome watercolor painting techniques, more on monochrome painting, how to paint using one color here, and easy one color painting guide.
• Once you want to branch out from one color, consider this site: mixer.
• Here’s some easy watercolor art ideas.
• for acrylic fans: paint acrylic light to dark or dark to light.
• If you want to Bind a Book read this.
• A good piece on how Renaissance art used tracing cartoons. Relatedly, read this on stenciling with acrylic paint.
• Helpful advice on painting your first object.
• Read this if you like to draw with ink: how to draw a portrait with ink.
• Finally, here’s some good inspiration for older artists: a new start after 60 it took 70 years to find my inner artist at 82, and this: ” I don’t know if i like it”…artist finally shown at royal academy after 31 attempts and finally this, on David Hockney drawing from life.

Good luck to all who strive to create art!
