Where can I learn drawing and painting?

Hi,

I'm in my 30's and want to take up a childhood dream. Can anyone have some idea where I can learn to draw and paint? I don't have too much experience, personally think I need to start from the very begining...

Thanks,

My first thought would be to see who teaches art in a local school and ask them if they would be willing to give you private lessons. Might be a thought that they had never entertained!

Secondly, The Art Institute of Vancouver | Art & Design School

Then I would try in a Google search the following:

Vancouver, British Columbia community college

Then I would try the same thing. While adding the words, art classes.

Here's a few other ideas:

Online Art School - Learn to Draw & Paint - 10 Free Lessons

I thought that the following site was pretty cool!

THE ORIGINAL ARTSCHOOL ONLINE

Others:

Art Activities, Art Projects & Games

Online Art Courses, Painting Lessons, Tutorials and Workshops

Painting instructions, Watercolour techniques, Design and colour
