I choose to paint beauty. (Igor Babailov)

Realist artists should join together in a worldwide effort... Sharing it with each other and teaching it - that is the key to the success and never-ending beauty and harmony of Realism. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Copying category:
Perhaps one of the most essential exercises in learning to paint is the copying of master works in the museums. (Igor Babailov)

The ability to draw from life determines the artist's skill. This is why live drawing classes have always been at the top of the curriculum for properly structured academic workshops. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Drawing category:
Even when you paint, you never stop drawing. (Igor Babailov)

Igor Babailov - From the Knowledge category:
In visual art it's better once to see, than one hundred times to hear. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Masters category:

Igor Babailov - From the Models category:
-on sketching Pope Benedict...
It's a luxury to have so much time, especially with someone so important and busy. You have to get a feel for the person. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Painting category:
Painting should educate and enrich. Modern painting merely offers a split-second emotion: You see it, you have an instant reaction and move on. Instead, real painting can be looked at over and over again and each time it has something new. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Patriotism category:
Even though these are different times, right now we are particularly thinking about what is leadership, and Washington's qualities are as needed today as they were at the founding of this great nation. (Igor Babailov)

Painting requires skill. Photography is created by the camera, and one cannot fully control what the camera sees. So people take many photographs because several must always be discarded. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Portraiture category:
Artists with the lack of proper education and experience of working from life will copy whatever is visible on the photograph, without knowing what's underneath. As a result, instead of creating the in-depth and full of character portrait, they draw a mask with no soul. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Realism category:
It is far easier to debate about realistic painting than to paint one. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Religion category:
We're all God's children. We are all special people, and the Pope is no different. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Teaching category:
Different instructors' approaches may "clash" with each other and result in confusion and unclear direction for the students. It's like attempting to learn how to write using both hands at the same time. How far would you go? (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Tradition category:
As the spiral of modern art history continues to wind down, we can see the increasing demand for tradition in the visual arts. (Igor Babailov)
Igor Babailov - From the Uniqueness category:
If you have ambitions to go beyond your dreams, you should not seek to copy others' styles, but rather aim to acquire the fundamentals of the timeless principles of academic school, which is a prerequisite for the development of your Uniqueness as an Artist. (Igor Babailov)
