Practical Painting

This is an unpretentious little how-to artists magazine created by an individual artist (identified only as “Denise”). The site features compact, informative articles on art technique and tool basics such as choosing canvas, colors and brushes. Her “What Paint Colors do I Need” article, for example, is a quick introduction to choosing a split-primary color palette. The site also includes interviews with working artists and articles about Art Nouveau and the Pre-Raphaelites. There is also a good list of online museums.
