Paint like Jules Olitski - Do not go for perfect

[@kathycarlson7947]

I liked both of them, but the print makes me smile more. Love this way of working.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Kathy, the print was fun to do. Albert

[@rchommel]

Great lesson, as always. And at the end, definitely the dog playing with a ball on the right ~!~

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Rich, always fun to hear. Albert

[@daniellovett4687]

@ 7:58 - This was transformational for me. I love Jules' and his circle/cell period but I had no idea he 'poured" paint directly onto canvas. Spot on.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Daniel, I liked him, an interesting artist. Lots to learn from his way of working. Happy painting, Albert

[@francavan1295]

Play time, ice cream, printmaking? Say no more, I’m in heaven! Thank you Albert for this dynamic and fun video

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Franca, thanks. As you could I had a blast making it. Bye, albert

[@dawnmillett4875]

Thank you! Your videos are very motivating to me😊

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Dawn, thanks, enjoy. Albert

Your Olitski style prints remind me of using a gel plate to make cool prints. The gel plates you can buy are smallish, but some people make their own plates in big trays like cookie sheets.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Barbh1. Oh, I keep forgetting to buy gelplates, I would love to play with them. I would go for a bigger one as well. Albert

[@paneko1]

What the great vid! I like both, neat and interesting :)) and maybe more the base in the end.. 'accidents' are always very exciting. Thanks for this beautiful inspiration!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Paneko1, indeed accidents in your painting are nice. Albert

[@ritabykhovsky4175]

Extremely interesting and enjoyable. Thank you, Albert

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Rita, thank you for your kind words. Albert

I like Jules art work, although I was unfamiliar with him, very colorful, and it makes me want to try some of that pouring technique. There are a lot pouring examples on YT, and a lot of artist use a pin to help pop the bubbles. Olitski's art reminds me a bit of Yui Kugimiya in that they were both abstract, colorful, and deal with shape. Do I like neat or interesting artwork? Well, it all depends. I tended to like Olitski's smoother work, but I like both, neat & interesting. Thanks Albert.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Culture Fan, thanks. Oh yes, it always depends about smooth or interesting or messy. Just as with all other options like medium or raw for your steak. That's also the beauty of an artist like Olitski, he made both. I will look into the artist you named, thanks. Bye, Albert

[@sdouba]

Thanks Albert for this as-usual-educational fun to watch, learn from and inspiring video. Cheers!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Salim, thanks. It was fun to as well. Thanks for dropping a line. Bye, Albert

[@enricakita1]

Love love these

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Enrica. It looks like you're having a blast binge watching. Enjoy. And paint, of course. Albert

[@brucewayne5488]

Really fun video, thank you!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Buce, thanks, was fun to make. Now it's your turn painting. Bye, Albert

[@ericespinosa3143]

Hey Albert! Im loving these "Paint like 'X-Artist' Videos! I would really love a video en Ellsworth Kelly :)

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Eric, thanks. Yes, Ellsworth Kelly, he is on my list for the near future. Thanks for the suggestion. Albert

[@ericespinosa3143]

@@ImperfectPaintings Amazing!

[@heartofhope77]

Albert, I love your classes, I don't suppose you can be convinced to make a video on how to paint like Schiele or Klimt please :) ???? Thank you for sharing the feeling we can try and be brave in our art.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Lulu, thanks. Schiele and Klimt are great but also quite complex. I look for ways to simplify it al and still experience the idea of the artists. I will put them on my list and see if i now can find my way . Albert

[@estee-mariearts4548]

Interesting!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Grammy, thanks. Do you have a preference for what makes a painting interesting? Bye, Albert

[@junconorton]

Your videos are always educational and fun! …and also you have introduced me to many painters whose works I was not aware of. I wonder if you could make a video on Mark English, American painter?

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Junco, thanks, nice to hear. Mark English's artwork looks very interesting. I will put him on my list of ideas to look into. Thanks for pointing me in his direction. Bye, Albert

[@j.vansanten112]

Amazing how you do it again and again😀🙀 i get it and understand wat you mean by paint.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi J, thanks. This one was fun to make. Better paint gives a better result, I believe you also told me about your cheap paint 😉 Bye, Albert

[@j.vansanten112]

Yes Albert thats right, in the mean time a have better paint, small ones to try😬

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Good to hear. Bye, Albert

[@enricakita1]

The one on the left Both neatly and non neatly So alive

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Enrica. I watched my own video, fun, and I liked both and all, actually. It's not a question of which one. They all are good, for different reasons. And as I often mention, only by do, do, doing you can find out. Albert

[@allbushnocraft3031]

mate I love your videos

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Moonie, thanks. More are coming in a few weeks. Albert

[@peteregan1169]

Great as usual!! Can you explain how you mount your paintings and frame them? Or do you use narrow canvas panels? I like your video’s very much. They give some inspiration during the lockdown!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Peter, thanks. I have one empty frame with a foam board mounted in it. I use pieces of masking tape to temporarily (only for the photograph) mount the sheet with the painting on it. Take picture and go over to the next one. If I don't forget it, I will show it in a behind the scenes video in the coming weeks. Hops this helps. Bye, Albert P.S. stay safe

[@kitkatbellamourxx934]

Hey Albert! Can you do a lesson on Romero Britto? Thanks xx

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Brixi, thanks. His art looks like fun, summertime and playful. I'll put him on my list. But it can take several weeks because I will take a break uploading in 2 weeks. We will start redoing the ground floor of our home, I hope it will be ready after two weeks 😁 Bye, Albert

[@kitkatbellamourxx934]

Imperfect Paintings good luck!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks for the good luck, we need it. Were in the middle of if right now 😁

[@sharongrinspan2076]

Interesting

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Sharon. Bye, Albert

[@sharongrinspan2076]

Imperfect Paintings Miss you today.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Sharon, it feels strange not to upload a video. But I did get your comment, thanks. See you next week. Albert

[@sharongrinspan2076]

Imperfect Paintings Good. Many of us get a lot out of your lessons. You give us great food for thought.

[@Gizmo2261]

Interesting 🤔

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Gizmo, thanks. Very interesting artist. Albert

[@judithreich3813]

What kind of paper do you use?

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Judith, thanks for asking. It's a 200 grams multipurpose paper. Maybe this one can answer some other questions as well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmPZoYanq7p4ick Just enjoy making whatever you make. Albert

[@jeanhurst4]

not neat, please!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Jean. Just as I like it. Albert
