Taken collectively, this series on impressionist art by Waldemar is a true masterpiece. The way in which he brings these artists and that time period and their art to life is truly a joy to behold. Anyone remotely interested in art and more specifically impressionist art needs to check this out. So well done.
@studio107bgallery49 ай бұрын
Totally the best and the way he leads up to a particular fact like why is he out there digging with a shovel in the forest? Oh, it’s because they wanted to lower their canvases into the ground, to a height that they could paint. What?!?! Why didn’t they use the ladder?

I love you Waldemar, so good at explaining, and perspective with a bit of cheeky humor. So smart without sounding preachy. One of my absolute favorite lines of his, out of thousands (and I've watched almost all. ) Was his line about the goths, not the historical goths but the sad imos, the ones dressed in all black, and usually covered in tattoos, he said something like, I think they just need a hug. 🤗🤗. I feel the same about allot of the people in the world today. And especially those who do the body art tattoos etc..(cut and paste pop culture (imo) on the skin for some kind of self expressing need for self esteem, trying so hard to be cool and unique but really just following a trend) .....more hugs more art, more intelligent and cheeky perspectives and please more Waldemar!
