This whole fantastic series is what I expected from an abstract class I’m taking. I can tell you honestly that your lessons are so much more helpful than the expensive class. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Also, I’ve been working in my watercolor journal with acrylic paint and I think it’s soaking up a lot of paint. Would mixed media paper be a better choice?
@FrankCurkovic15 күн бұрын
You're very welcome! I've used acrylic on watercolor paper with no issues, but would probably lean towards mixed media paper.

In elementary school I was, along with a few other students,one of the best artists in my whole class.I would stay in indoors for recess some times just so I could work on a project.When the other kids would come back to class they would gather around my desk to see what I was doing.I got a lot of oohs and ahhs from the students. 'how do you that, it's amazing? I would say "I don't know, I just do, it's a natural talent, I guess.'

Downvoted because of the music. Tutorials are enough on their own with the voiceover. The music alienates a lot of people. There are many who will be triggered by sensory overload from the visual, voice and music. It's such a shame because it's an interesting video. If I, or someone else doesn't mention it, then video creators aren't aware of the problem and can't do something to help in future videos.

To each their own I guess. Some tend to think the low background music is is necessary. Thanks for the comment.

I hadn't heard of Hi-Fructose and just subscribed! I randomly came across a documentary of Robert Williams a few years ago and have been a huge fan of Juxtapose ever since. You did an excellent job of weaving together the styles and artists and presented it clearly. That's not easy.

Honestly, I would compare pop surrealism with the devil trying to draw cartoons. Most artworks done by these artists are just _wrong_ and feel vulgar and just not cool. They don't pass the vibe check. Take Mark Ryden for example, who consistently paints literal naked children in his paintings. Nobody ever talks about that ever or criticizes it. Pop surrealism is perverted, misguided, and low moral, and it's a shame, because as a cubist who uses expressionism, I see the charm that could've been being constantly tarnished by artists whose inappropriate fetishes manifested into their art.
@FrankCurkovic2 ай бұрын
Hmm...I'm not sure what the "vibe check" means and haven't really considered your thoughts before. I get, understand your views and opinions and welcome them. Why not? To each their own. However, the term low-brow did refer to fringe art, hence the title. One essay by Carlo McCormick has a quote that sums of Ryden pretty well: "Mark Ryden does not celebrate evil, even it's its most campy denatured form. Quite to the contrary, his art-making can be seen as an elaborate charade of avoidance towards life's grimmer realities. His is an utterly pure infantilistic escapism." (source: www.markryden.com/at-play-in-the-slaughterhouse-of-american-pop#:~:text=Mark%20Ryden%20does%20not%20celebrate,an%20utterly%20pure%20infantilistic%20escapism.) I do like your line "the devil trying to draw cartoons." Thanks for sharing your thoughts and taking the time to comment.

Couldn't you just start with a pencil drawing directly on the lino and then ink it over once perfect? Why bother with the previous 3 or 4 steps? Thanks for the video. Getting into printmaking recently.

Some harder lino will hold pencil marks, but at times they are sometimes hard to erase. I used a softer type of lino and drawing on it is a little harder.

Thank you for taking the time to create this video, it is very informative. My question: what kind of marker do you use to go over the pencil marks on the lino that will not wash away when you wash off each printing ink? Does it interfere with the printing ink at all?

Hi, the marker should be a permanent marker like a Sharpie, not a water based one. The marker will not affect the print. Good luck!
