Art apprentice online

We know what it's like when you start learning anything new, most of all learning to paint. Not understanding the language, the materials or tools, the type of paints and pigments, and most importantly where to start or what to paint can be very overwhelming for the new painter. We want to help artists like yourself, feel free to ask questions, be creative while improving your skills and have lots of fun while doing so. We are here to help you along this wonderful and exciting journey!

 

The Art Apprentice Online, fondly called the 'AAO' by our followers, is a leader in online art education for the artist seeking a more serious yet fun approach to learning from home. We offer an approachable way to learn to paint right from the comfort of your home. We want you to improve your skills, share your work and interact with the instructors and other like minded students in a casual classroom environment. Our goal is for you to learn and develop a passion for painting.

 

• First of all, the convenience of being able to sit at my computer, download all material and the added bonus of watching marvelous artists demonstrate what I am to do is just overwhelming. - Janice Montreuil - Canada
• What did I expect? I had no idea but knew it would be of the highest quality with exceptional attention to detail - it's the only way these ladies work. - Jodi Deering - BC - Canada
• The one thing that amazes me is the caliber of the projects. These are beautiful pieces of art! Even painted by someone who has picked up a brush for the very first time. They are simple enough for a beginner to paint but also sophisticated enough for the advanced artist to appreciate. And then there is all of the art knowledge, history , color theory and technique squeezed into the lesson too. What a deal! - Linda Hatfield, Muscatine, Iowa - USA
• The videos, as I already knew from taking AAO art school classes are phenomenal, written information complete, accurate and thorough and all of it constantly getting better when I think it can’t! - Doris Woodruff, Dallas, Texas - USA
• My two hands are clapping loud & loud! Thank you to the team at Traditions Art School for this amazing opportunity! I have thoroughly enjoyed being able to learn from the program. The ability to start and continue as one is able has meant it fits into a busy daily schedule. I have learnt a lot about the 'why' of the painting I am doing and that gives me the grounding to further push the boundaries with my art! The access to education is a precious gift!
  Thank you! - Leonie Brennan - Frenchs Forest, Australia
• I thought I would maybe be able to pick up a few new tricks for painting but had no idea of how extensive the classes would be. - Jeanne Widman
• Any segment that is confusing to me I can repeat it until I finally get it. If that doesn't work, I know that I can always get help from the great teachers. That is another thing....the teachers. I get a feeling of friends helping friends from the teachers. Teachers have always scared me.....like I am not smart enough to talk to them....not on the same level. I do not feel that with any of the teachers so far. - Jeanne Heinrichs
• Color theory, perspective, art history, values, pigments, and the Munsell chart. Oh my goodness I feel as though I was accidentally let into a college course in Fine Arts. Using the videos are very helpful, the lessons are reviewed periodically and the quizzes tell me what I have learned and what I need to improve in. The teachers are just about the best ever, friendly, caring, passionate, talented and professional. - Jen Rose - USA
