People who don’t have either the time or money (or neither) to take live art classes sometimes consider painting lessons on DVD as an alternative.

But sometimes people are skeptical of how effective a pre-recorded painting lesson for the masses might be.

They worry about wasting their money on something that’s not going to work—something that will be watched once and then left to collect dust for years to come. So the real question is, do they actually work?

First, consider for a moment a workout DVD and its effectiveness. If someone is looking to lose weight, of course sweating along to a workout DVD is going to work, because it’s getting them off the couch and moving. But the effectiveness of that session is going to depend a lot upon how the person uses it.

If they do the same DVD every Sunday for six and a half years, it’s going to lose effectiveness very quickly. In order for it truly to be effective, they’ll need to go above and beyond just that.

The DVD is simply a guide—something to use sometimes along with other forms of exercise. If the person really wants to lose weight, they’ll have to do more than just follow a DVD and never exercise past the point when the DVD player is stopped.

The same is true for painting DVDs. Painting lessons on DVD will show you the proper form and give you tips, just as an exercise DVD might. But you need to go beyond that lesson and practice, practice, practice to become a talented painter.

Making one painting along with a lesson is a great start, but to truly learn you’ll need to experiment. Just as a live lesson would, a DVD will give you the guidance you need to start creating work on your own, but real painting comes from you—not an instructor.

If you truly want to learn oil painting, you’re just going to need to paint! But beginners will find a lot of value in the basic instruction that comes from beginning painting DVDs. They are worth it in that case.

Additionally, you need to decide if you’re the type of person who can learn in such a method. If you like to ask a lot of questions and receive a lot of guidance for other things in your life, you may get a bit frustrated when it comes to the painting DVD. You may have a question that goes unanswered and be unable to more forward freely without a proper answer.

If you want to learn from a DVD, you have to be willing to make mistakes and experiment or do your own research to find the answers. You have to be self-motivated and not in need of a lot of feedback. A painting DVD won’t make you a great artist, but it will give you the foundation you need to become one through your own efforts.

In the end, beginners to painting will probably find that painting lessons on DVD are a good investment. There’s a wealth of information in books and on the internet, but things become easier when you’re actually watching someone do it in front of you. Lessons on DVD will give you a good foundation and guidance for painting, and that may be the push you need to start developing into a truly talented painter.
