New Article on ARC

Published on March 28, 2019

ARC Associate Living Master™, Tina Garrett, has recently published an article on ARC titled "How I Started Teaching Workshops".

"In 2011 when the publishing house that was my mainstay client filed for bankruptcy, I was in the pits of despair. Everything I had trained for as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer, was evaporating. I could have never guessed that in just a few short years I would reinvent myself as a fine artist working in a new medium and create a new career for myself that would not only allow me to paint in a way I had only dared to dream of, but would also take me around the world teaching oil painting workshops and sharing my process and views on art with other artists..."

Article by Kara Ross in Outdoor Painter

Published on March 25, 2019

ARC Co-Chair and C.O.O Kara Lysandra Ross recently wrote an article in Outdoor Painter Magazine.

"At ARC we are doing our best to show the world that Realist Art is a movement, full and thriving. We are not one style and one train of thought. It is the diversity of style, technique, and subject matter that appear in the ARC Salon which proves to the world that the movement exists, that we are not just a handful of artists who all think and feel the same way about what art should be..."

5th International NTDTV Figure Painting Competition

Published on March 19, 2019

The 5th International Figure Painting Competition is now accepting entries.

This competition seeks figurative oil paintings that depict traditional moral values and that were created using realistic artistic techniques.

Traditional realistic techniques are fundamental to fine art. It is one of the most important cultural expressions of human civilization. However, techniques themselves are not the only elements required to create fine art. An artist differs from an artisan in that an artist can use their work to positively enlighten the minds and hearts of the viewers.

The work of an artist also belongs to the society it influences. Therefore, NDTV believes that a leading artist must be aware of their mission in reviving traditional fine art today.

The deadline for registration is July 15, 2019. Finalists are exhibited November 24-30, 2019 at the Salmagundi Club (47 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10003). A Gold Medal Prize of $10,000 is also offered in the competition.
