"The Widow" painting, inspired by Yoko Ono?
I got in mind the image of a women, who was seemingly going through much pain emotionally. While I was painting this I had no particular person in mind of whom this painting would be in likeness to, nor did I wish this painting to resemble any other person in any way, shape, or form. How ever, while I was painting this picture, I came to the realization that this painting may have been unconsciously inspired by Yoko Ono.. There I was, painting this women who was grieving, and there to my left was my John Lennon painting staring me in the eyes as the oil dried a few feet away from me. I was somewhat troubled by this, it was not my intention to portray any likeness to Yoko Ono, and I stopped the painting, leaving it "uncompleted"; but in my mind I had already decided that the painting was already as complete as it was ever going to be.
It is possible that while I was painting this painting I was unconsciously inspired by Yoko Ono, this is an embarrassing story for me to tell, to be honest; and others may not see any relations between the painting and Yoko Ono. It was after my discovery of this unintentional likeness to the singer, that I decided to name this painting "The Widow". At the end of the day I am pleased with the out come of this painting, if you would like to purchase this painting then please visit my website here http://furuart.wix.com/furuarts and if you have any question you can contact me via the Contact page on my website.

I would like to one day be remembered for my paintings, the same way that John Lennon is remembered for his music, or the way that the great Lincoln is for his courage, and so on..

The Birth of Impressionism.

For all of the 1860's the new style of painting currently known as "impressionism" was nameless, that is until the early 1870's when Louis Leroy criticised one of Monet's paintings name "Impression, Sunrise". Leroy claimed that the painting was not an actual painting, but rather , as the name implies it was simply an 'impression' of a painting. So it was intended as an insult when Leroy name this style of painting in particular as "impressionism". Despite this insult to Claude Monet and his newly developed painting style , Monet and others like him propelled impressionism to amazing heights. Since it's creation in France during the 1860's, impressionism has spread all throughout the world and many painters both old and young are using this style of painting today.

How to start painting in 3 easy steps!

One: You will need a canvas, you can make your own canvas if you have the materials and the know how, you can also buy one online or at your local Arts and Craft store. If you have any particular make of material that you'd like to paint on, but don't know where to find it, then online will be the best place to turn.
Two: Before starting your painting it is very important that you prime your canvas first. Buy primer from your local art store, you will paint multiple layers of primer over the canvas. Priming the canvas is very important because painting on a raw canvas with oil paint will ruin the canvas, and as a result the painting will be ruined as well. It is ok to paint on a raw canvas with acrylic paint, but keep in mind that the canvas may be rough to the touch when raw, and as a result you will find it hard to paint small details.
Three: This is the easiest step of all. After you've primed your canvas properly you're ready to paint! Make sure you have a large variety of brushes on hand and at least 6 different color bottles of paint, all of which will be your primary colors, Yellow, Blue, Red, Green, Black, and White. Mix these colors to achieve your desired shade. If mixing colors isn't you thing then you can always buy more colors to support your need ;)
Now, keep in mind that while the preparation may be relatively easy, painting is not. So be prepared to work hard and try your best! I'm sure the end result will be a great piece.

Traditional Art-VS-Digital Art

Cost: Digital media is great, but it isn't cheap, you will need a fast computer, graphics software (such as photoshop) and a graphics tablet. However, there are ways to save money when becoming a digital artist.
You will need a type of computer graphics program and photoshop may be the best out there but, it isnt for everyone due to its price. As a result, many people have instead downloaded a program called GIMP. GIMP is very similar to photoshop and is about just as good (with the exception of no animation capabilities) and the best thing about GIMP is that is completely FREE! ..And then there's the problem of getting a graphics tablet, which can range anywhere from $50.00 all the way to $1,500.00. But if youre just starting out then it may be best to go with something cheaper, like a Wacom Bamboo tablet which usually cost $99.99 at Best Buy.
Resources: Once you've got your Computer and tablet all set up then you're ready to go. If you're doing traditional style painting then you'll be making frequent run's to your local art supplies store. Many artist

All jokes aside, the woman in the painting doesnt look upset at all really, which is because you usually can't tell how upset someone is just by looking at them.
