To me it was the opposite. I find Python a easy language to learn and write. The first project I had with python was to create a browser turn based game like Ogame and it was so easy to do it on Python thanks to the verbose of the language. When I pick Ruby a bit messy, but that is just my opinion :)
Functional prog. deals a lot with abstraction recursion etc... so I guess you don't have to move to functional programming, there are cases that OOP is better there are others that FP is better. The ideal thing would be a languages that is in the middle of OOP and PF until we get there I guess that all depends on the project. Have a look at this video where Simon Peyton talks about functional programming and Haskell on specific. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSmkqocn0oQ
Because believe it or not, this is a valid function in Haskell: Function languages are awesome but the problem is that they are very different from OOP languages, and people have a hard time going from a language like C, Ruby or Python to a functional one.
I like to learn as I go solving problems. Try to solve problems from https://www.hackerrank.com/ using Python. HackerRank follows a step by step hands on approach to teach you programming. There is also a cool GitHub project that proposes to teach you Python in on picture. http://git.io/Py-pic
I think the best way would be to use the HTML5 API and then using the HTMLCanvasElement.toDataURL() function to convert the canvas to a image. http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_canvas.asp https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLCanvasElement/toDataURL In this link you can see how select a font family, size and color and add it to a canvas. - http://www.w3schools.com/canvas/canvas_text.asp Here is a quick example in JsFiddle of what you want https://jsfiddle.net/17ut2kzm/
Check out this link at GitHub (https://github.com/vhf/free-programming-books) where you can find several programming books in different languages.
