I had no idea I would receive such an abundance of information, advice and encouragement! Thank you all! My quest now is to seek out all knowledge of art in the universe. HA! Starting with the fundamentals has always seemed such a bore. Yada, yada, yada. Well, not anymore! I used to think, why spend a full class time drawing spheres and cubes, then apples and oranges? Well now I see the light.
I've now begun asking myself, "Have you ever seen a perfectly drawn (or painted) orange? It's gorgeous"! Knowledge is always something we want "right now" but need to aquire over time.
I, too, am impatient and want to become a great painter NOW, but alas, will have to wait. My greatest desire is to create a great painting on purpose instead of feeling it was serendipity (or happy accident). Kudos to you all. I've seen the light!
