Since you are still active on here; question: Did you ever use a pipettes (plastic droppers) to paint Pollock style paintings to get smooth lines? Michael's Art Stores has them in stock. I plan on trying some out today. Using BEHR PREMIUM Urethane Alkyd Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior/Exterior Paint works great for Pollock style painting, without having to add any water to it to get smooth, straight lines. It dries fairly quickly too (overnight). I can understand why you gave up, based upon this video. I personally just give away my paintings to friends and family to see their faces light up! No, we will never make any money with our paintings. Everyone these days is an artist! Suggestion: Read Andy Weir's novels. Using his style of humor, with Science Fiction, with correct Space details, and "real" stories to be told about Space, would be a good direction to go into. A second movie of Weir's is in production now (Project: Hail Mary). If he can do it, then so can you!

My sister has that

dear Coty, I hope you start painting again ;I wish you all the best for the future

I loved watching you creating art in the style of ............ I want you to show us you at your work, Do it with love, forget the money, that will come

I really liked your paintings and watching your process videos. Would love to see more of that. Please keep painting.

Well made video. I resonated with your thougths a lot. I came to a lot of the same conclusions in fitness. Doing things our own unique way is what helps us enjoy it and make it feel more personal. You are not just training, you are training your own way, with your own goals and motivations, with your own ammount of effort, technique, frequency and variation of exercises. That's what gives it value at the end of the day, that it's your own thing, your own style, your own journey. It's about finding yourself in the process. When you do things your own way, the problem of comparing yourself to others almost disappears, because you are not doing the same thing. I like looking at other fitness youtubers or athletes that are symphatetic to me and taking from them things that intrigued me and then I do them my own way. The pursue of maximum efficiency always seemed toxic, it takes the joy out of things.

Thank you

Always

Just found you and subscribed. Hope you are painting. I didn't see any recent comments. It's December of 2024. Thank you.

I love this! Nice job!

Thanks a lot for your effort. It was me who had asked for it. Now I realize that it is useful only in special cases. I write from beat to beat and happy with prorucing 500 to 800 words everyday. So I do exactly what you say - pull in the codex name in the description to generate prose. But yeah thanks a lot. Hope to see more videos from you. Are there any prompts that you use which you have designed yourself?

I bought one at a garage sale and burned it

You are too much,love your énergie,go on

Animals should never be mocked.

i'm taking this as an example for when i'll get the same treatment from people when i'll be transitioning from being the photographer to the painter :))

Your videos are very useful. I'm new to NovelCrafter but there's just one thing I wish I knew how to do. Let's say I give novelcrafter a scene beat. "Write x scene." Then, for whatever reason, part of the scene beat is nonsensical and doesn't take into account some context. If I were on Claude or ChatGPT, I'd say "Hey, for this scene, you wrote X, but that doesnt make sense because ABC. Can you rewrite taking that into account." I don't know how to do that on Novelcrafter without either asking for an entirely new scene beat or using the Chat function, but it never outputs what I'm trying to get.

It seems like my comments keep getting held. I don't know what settings you're placing but I'm not writing anything that should trigger a filter afaik. Whatever it is, thank you for the video.

Thanks. I never used nesting, but I'm also pretty new to novelcrafter. Heard about it, but never understood the appeal. I would probably only use nesting on novels that I am using cheap to free models with. If I just want to see my idea in words, I'd write up my full outline, chapter and scene beats, and then just let a free/cheap AI go through it. For <$5 I can see my story as it unfolds based with my vision, then do revision until I was satisfied with the idea, plot/subplot/twists/characters, and for that I would create hundreds of codex entries. Then once it's refined enough I'd probably either write the next draft 1.0 by myself or with 20-30% Claude Sonnet.

Wow, thank you so much. This is amazing. Just what I was looking for. I definitely should check out the nerdy novelist too, but I like your approach, and the way you show how you build it up. Question about what you did in ChatGPT: Couldn't you just do that in the Chat tab within NovelCrafter? Is there a benefit of leaving the system? Very grateful that you followed up on my comment, just what I needed. I agree that there's no right and wrong with (AI) writing, but if you want a good novel it should probably be yours first and AI just to polish or unstuck what you need. You said that you use $10-15 dollars every few weeks in OpenRouter, how many words input/output tokens are you doing in that period of time, and is Haiku worth it, or can you only get good/decent-enough prose with the more expensive models?

Looking forward for more. Specially nesting etc. Looks like you have good experience. 👍

I tried using ChatGPT to flesh out ideas I had and it hasn't been very helpful to me. I do write mostly Fantasy/Sci-Fi and I find it keeps trying to move my story to a more generic direction, while I have an idea that is mine and not that. Dictation doesn't work for me, because unlike you I actually see the scene I'm trying to convey but struggle explaining it, and when I leave out a few obvious (to my mind) details about it, the prose comes out terrible. Even when I try to get AI to help with that, it sees something completely different than what I'm seeing (trying to steer it to a conclusion/wrap-up is also a major issue with AI). The only time I find AI helpful is when I write down the chapter myself and then take a paragraph for it to analyze and possibly expand without changing context. That's why I think the codex and series/world in novelcrafter can be a great tool. Keep up the amazing work, and like I said previously, would love to see how you work within novelcrafter, possibly a breakdown of what you would do if you had a new idea and know what you want, and building that codex so that it works.

Loved this video. I myself am thinking about using novelcrafter. I've seen many videos about it, but your story really encouraged me. I understand why you couldn't show how you use it, because of family etc. but it would be great if you can find a time to share yourself using novelcrafter (on a new book, not on the 200k-300k novel). As someone who has ideas and also have a few partial novels that aren't finished, and struggle keeping things in order, this should be a gamechanger. Love your journey and will love to watch more of your writing journey.

What if glue canvas on watercolour paper

Right, because the yesso is also"wet,,"... Shrinking with No paint yet,!!!! Thanks.

Nice!

❤❤

Crazy story. support from a fellow creator

Pollock painted on unstretched canvas

I-sell-worth

I don't get why that painting is so famous. There are so many other painting that are so incredible. If you ever have a chance to go to the museum in NYC the figures in those painting look alive.

Second like, 38th view

Me encanta

Is the liquitex acrylic diluted to make it "drip" better?

😮😮😮

No mention of the likely cracking that will occur later hen you stretch a heavily painted, impasto canvas.

Such helpful tips thankyou, love the technique!

Hi. You have answered the question of the type of paint being gloss enamel. But is it oil based, or water based enamel. In California, most oil based paints have been banned. Thanks.

Interesting I'm a Jackson Pollock fan i applaud your effort.

Bạn đang bôi bẩn đó thôi, không ra cái gì cả! Nghệ sỹ phải có phương thức riêng có hiệu quả _ rất hiếm người đạt được. Bạn chưa biết mình đang làm gì nữa kia, chỉ là trò nghịch ngợm!

I like it very much .your channel is new to me .

Keep up the good work hope for more drawing video

Good jab man

You are a good and kind-hearted person. I wish you success. I have not drawn for more than ten years, but when I watched the video, I decided to return. Continue, my brother, and do a good job. I live in Egypt.

Luv the title, Mini Rothko. I like it 👏🏾

But I assume it has to be left in place after you've painted it to dry before moving? I feel like if you took it down from the wall or moved it before it would dry it could change the painting?

Nice I just did my first Jackson p artpiece and I love the technique

What happens when it gets stretched?! Does is also crack the paint?
