Quarter horses are a breed, where Overo is a pattern, similar to Tobiano. "Paint" horses are considered their own breeds too. Try looking into this horse's genetics to find out more about it's blood lines. Certainly a Quarter Horse may have an Overo pattern, but so can a Paint horse.

When did people first breed the paint horse?

The American Paint horse was originally part of the Quarter Horse breed. However horses with pinto markings became undesirable and were not allowed to be registered as Quarter horses. The American Paint Horse Association (APHA) was founded in 1965 to register pinto marked horses with Quarter horse ancestry. The APHA absorbed both the American Paint Quarter Horse Association (APQHA) and the American Paint Stock Horse Association (APSHA.) Both of those registries were around before the APHA. The APHA also allowed in Thoroughbreds with Overo markings.If by chance you mean a pinto horse they have been around for tens of thousands of years, if not more.

What horse is bettter for beginner a quarter horse or a paint horse?

The breed matters little. The horse is what really matters. Whether it is a Shire or a Shetland, a paint or a quarter horse, you want an older, calm, well trained horse that has plenty of experience in the disipline you want to try. The breed or size doesn't matter- it's the heart and willingness of the horse to partner with you and keep you safe and allow you to learn and improve. Also, a Paint horse is likely to be genetically very similar to a Quarter Horse, since the Paint breed is a color breed that was derived from the Quarter Horse.
