Prepare your canvas:
You have to first prepare your canvas with some primer. Most of the times when you buy a canvas then it will come with primer on that but if you use that again then it will give you smoother surface to work on. If you are a complete beginner then you have to know that primer is used to smoothen out the surface of the canvas and all the pores will be filled so that when you paint on that canvas then it will soak lesser paint and you will get exact color which you wish to have on that.
Prepare yourself:
With preparation of a lot of other things like paint brushes, surface area and canvas, you also need to prepare yourself for painting because you will never learn any new thing unless your brain is prepared to learn about it. There should be no emotional or mental burden on you to learn this art because when you learn in burden then you will not go deep in that with all of your heart because you feel it like some enforced thing and it will restrict you from learning new things. You need to prepare physically too like you have to be active and there should be body aches otherwise you will get tired soon.
