The key is to understand the basic fundamentals of painting: the materials, brushes, tools, types of painting, drawing, color theory, composition. To get inspired by other artists’ work is really important. Picking up a canvas and start painting is always something that pushes you forward. Painting for kids usually starts with giving them the freedom to try various colors and brushes before guiding them. For adults, a certain amount of practical skills in terms of contouring and drawing will be helpful before beginning to paint. It is advised to get guidance from teachers to shape your right painting path. A handy tip for beginner painters is to get sketch pens, a book and start painting from real life. You could also practice proportions to further hone your art skills.

Painting history includes the history of major painting styles and masters.
The most common types of painting styles are acrylic painting, oil painting, watercolor painting, pastel painting, and oil painting. In watercolor painting, water is added to the pigment and the strokes of color are applied using different sizes of brushes. In oil painting, drying oil is used as a binder to the pigment. Acrylic painting is the most common, where the colors are mixed with water initially and finally are waterproof once applied. Pastel colors are most popular among kids where the colors are available in sticks. There are other styles like charcoal painting, coffee painting etc which are equally good.
