  An effective quark Lagrangian is derived from first principles through
bilocal gluon field correlators. It is used to write down equations for
baryons, containing both perturbative and nonperturbative fields. As a result
one obtains magnetic moments of octet and decuplet baryons without introduction
of constituent quark masses and using only string tension as an input. Magnetic
moments come out on average in reasonable agreement with experiment, except for
nucleons and $\Sigma^-$. The predictions for the proton and neutron are shown
to be in close agreement with the empirical values once we choose the string
tension such to yield the proper nucleon mass. Pionic corrections to the
nucleon magnetic moments have been estimated. In particular, the total result
of the two-body current contributions are found to be small. Inclusion of the
anomalous magnetic moment contributions from pion and kaon loops leads to an
improvement of the predictions.
