People tell me all the time that they wish they could do what I do -- paint. If you are serious about painting, it's never too late to start. You can learn about the principals of painting by listening to other artists, either by taking classes and by watching teaching DVDs and online videos. You can read books and magazines about the "how-to."
But to really learn to paint, you must put brush to canvas again, and again, and again. It's only when you have put miles on the brush that with trial and error, that you learn to paint. So go paint...and then paint some more!
