I love your art videos so much!!!! You blew me away with these paintings. I love the way you explain the artist and painting and what you choose. Amazing! Thank you!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Thank you so much! 😀

[@karyn8186]

I would not say I have ever be shocked by art but I took an art history class in college (because I had to) and that really changed my thinking about art. My eyes were opened to whole new world that I found exciting and after the class, I was able to identify all sorts of artwork in films and TV. My husband and I also fit in a museum or two when we travel internationally, which I never would have wanted to do before I took the class. Thank you for showing us a full spectrum of artwork from around the globe!

[@catherinewalesiuk]

When I was younger and livingwith my parents near Paris, I went to the Louvre a few times. I was amazed by all the huge paintings and all the details. You can stay in front of one painting for hours.

[@debbiewilliams9983]

I enjoy walking through a museum and admiring the art. I have watched many coloring videos, watercolor, etc. attempting to dabble in art. The diamond painting has opened an opportunity to acquire some beautiful art pieces in a different format. Many of us now have more art than we can possible hang up with the diamond paintings. 😉. Thank you, Jessica, for making these videos sharing these old art pieces.

[@jjthetm]

When I lived in Germany I became almost obsessed with seeing as many outdoor sculptures as possible. Every town had so many unique pieces scattered about

[@marroomydesigns]

Since this is your last video for the event I first want to thank you for all the hard work. This event is both fun and educational and I hope it comes back again next year. Now on a time when I was moved by the painting. I have to say my very first visit to national gallery of art . Just to see all the beauty and mastery all at once in one building was overwhelming. These where paintings I’ve seen photos of for years. But to see them in person was something else. This was just a few weeks after my first visit to the US (18 years ago) tucked in a corner of one of the galleries, on its own, was a Van Gogh. It was one of his field paintings. It moved me. I could see how 3D it looked in person. I don’t know if it was long hours of walking and the whole day’s experience but I swear I could almost hear the wind running through the field.

[@Queen_of_Diamonds_4]

I have been changed the Summer with the Masters event. I had never see art from these amazing artists. I have fallen in love with Soul of the Rose and the Mermaid by Waterhouse.

[@jessdiamondpaints]

I was just shocked by that judgement painting! Loving the snake biting the dude’s junk. LOL

[@diamonds-n-dogs]

I've always loved art but my trip to Paris and my encounters with Monet and many other old masters deepened my appreciation and awe at their stories and talent.

[@carlasilva8155]

Sending you the best wishes for your new work! New chapters can be so exciting! 👏👏👏

[@tijuanacrafter]

A time I was changed by art was the first time i went to the Museum and saw art in real life not on tv and feel in love with the masters.

[@dawnyoung627]

OMG... I LOVED THIS VIDEO.... Art I never have seen or heard of... all so beautiful, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all. Has to write down a couple to research and maybe get customs done of... I would love to have Allogory of Human LIfe hanging on my wall... Thank YOU !!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is awesome! If you do, I would LOVE to see!

[@denisemom3780]

I love all the painting you shared. I not sure what was my first art that impacted me. I love most art. Thank you for all your hard work on this event.

[@pattiy8240]

Thank you for showing these pieces of art. Many I've never seen before and are beautiful. Years ago when I was in Vegas I attended an art show. I had never been to an art gallery before and seeing these actual paintings moved me to tears. I hope you have an awesome week! 💃🍷🏖

[@pattikrauss2382]

One of the things that most impressed me was the lovely works of art found in churches in Florence, Italy. I loved the beautiful art in Santa Croce and was so surprised to see the extravagant tombs there.

[@helenclemens729]

Last year's Summer with the Masters changed my life. I was an art lover in college and for a few years after. Then 6 kids came along and I was too busy. Last year's event reminded me of my love for art and I hope I never put it on the back burner again!

[@DznyKyd]

Wonderful examples for this subject! I’m going to go research the artists, such lovely, thoughtful works!

[@teresa62ish]

I have never really been shocked by any art. I thank you for all your art knowledge!!

[@jennifernesci]

I was shocked by Goya's "Saturn Devouring His Son" in Spanish class in high school. I later had the opportunity to visit the Louvre and there were more Goya paintings on display. I was amazed at how striking the paintings were, even the ones without such dark subject matter. Thank you for another great video! I love learning about all these different artists!

[@angelaspeiler6032]

I've loved art for as long as I can remember. I used to draw when I was younger but didn't pursue it. When I was in high school I loved going to The Getty and even did a report on the museum. I haven't ever really been into "shocking" art but I can appreciate it anyway.

[@Wildcat1146]

I was lucky enough to live in Paris and visited the Louvre and Musée D’Orsay many times. I became obsessed with the Impressionists but never been enjoyed nude sculptures. Thank you for another great video! I will be sad when Summer With Masters is over. Looking forward to next year’s event!

[@barbarag3239]

Congratulations to the winners! Thank you to the sponsors! I have been changed by art through this event in 2021. I knew absolutely nothing until I watched the videos of yours and Katies..Thanks to SWTM2022 I'm still learning!! Thanks so much.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That's so awesome, Barbara!!

[@katarinafernbrant3159]

I also feel that last year of summer with the masters was when I realised how much I enjoy art. I have been to a couple of museums but now I really feel like planning trips just to see 🖼!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is awesome!! ❤

[@greetje4553]

Hi Jessica, thank you so much for yet another interesting video! As a child I remember being shocked by "The anatomy lesson by Dr. Nicolaes Tulp", painted by Rembrandt van Rijn. Now as an adult I am not so easily shocked anymore😉

[@deborahmurray1779]

SWTM is what changed my view of this type of art. I've seen a couple of paintings from this time period but never paid any attention to how beautiful and filled full of emotion this art was. Then when I entered SWTM 2022 and started looking for a painting to do that's when I realized how beautiful these paintings are. The colors the emotion and the detail are awesome so much so that I ended up buying 4 Diamond Paintings lol...Thank you SWTM for opening my eyes up to such beautiful art wrk.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is so cool! ❤

[@Melbell76]

When i started following your channel and you talked about Summer with the Masters 2021 and you showed a couple of black Artist before 1927 I went looking and researching and was in awe because honestly I only knew about those after that time.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is so cool, Melissa! It still grieves me that I can't share dozens of famous black artists from this time period. How much genius was lost? Mind boggling really. 😥

[@jessruss7709]

This event has changed my way of thinking about art in general. I have always admired the beauty on the surface, but now I want to know the deeper meaning of what the artist is trying to say. I keep coming back to Isabelle and the Pot of Basil in my mind. The picture is stunning, but, if you know the story behind it, it takes on a darker macabre tone. Thank you and Katie for bringing this genre into the world of diamond painting and for hosting this fun event,

[@JustSheilz]

I had never been interested in art (except music) until my daughter started being intereested in it. She had done clay and oil painting and earned herself a free summer art camp during middle school. It was during this time I was introduced to the works of Klimt. I Was actually shocked by his story most of all.

[@aaoen]

I have loved all types of art for as long as I can remember, never been shocked by it, except seeing the painting you showed with the "junk being bitten" Yikes! LMAO This event has been so much fun, thank you for your time in hosting :)

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Mission accomplished! Bwahahaha! 🤣

[@Melbell76]

And yeah that art was provocative but I liked it.

[@Bethany.Kristen]

I’m a day late but I did want to say that this is was a wonderful video. I really enjoyed seeing the artwork from a new style that I haven’t looked much into before. Thank you.

[@katieparpart1365]

Okay so I have been thinking about this during my parenting taxi service to and from activities.... No for a long time nudity made me inner squirmy s a bit but Luke y mentioned at the end of your video art us meant to push us out of a comfort zone. I try to look at art from multiple viewpoint now, would live to revisit some art museums I saw as a kid and see what my brain thinks now. I'm still in awe and shock over artist in any Era can make paint or draw and make it look like a photograph, that just blows my mind....the shading, the textures etc to make thar art medium look that way is amazing. Thank u for yet another great video!!!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

I totally identify with this!

[@tinabean216]

Fifteen or so years ago, there was an exhibition of bronze sculptures by Edgar Degas that spent some time at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Having always loved Dega's paintings of the dancers, I figured why not take my Mom and go have a look-see, after all how often do works from Degas roll through WI! The sculpture "Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen" was one of the pieces on exhibit, and it was absolutely breathtaking. Just being able to stand there and take it all in was almost a humbling experience. A very special day.

[@kerry4421]

Jessica your videos for SWTM are always so interesting and your so knowledgeable. I love going to art galleries and one of my favourite artists is John Waterhouse. Great event this year, take care.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Thank you!!

[@susanh9950]

The first kit I did for SWTM2022 (L’Ermitage by Paul Berthon) came to my attention when I was a teenager (I’m in my 60s now). I bought a poster of it from a clearance bin at a store in Southern California. I’ve always loved it and, from my teenage bedroom, to my first apartment, then my first house it has always had a place of prominence. It was not until I found it in a diamond painting kit that I researched it further and learned so much about art nouveau. I’m grateful to you and Katie for this fun and educational event!

[@mialuc]

When I was in middle school, The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali definitely made me think of the inexplicable perception/social construct/relativity of "time"....very surreal and eye-opening!

[@letrule7277]

The one time I was at the Vatican, I was amazed by the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

[@claraarellano1867]

The time I was shocked was when my hubby and I were watching the History channel and it showed art work I believe done by DaVinci showing a saint in a dark cave. It just made me see the artist in a different light because he put secrets in his paintings. It was not something I wanted to know about the artist. It said he did this in a lot of his paintings and I was not liking it at all. Usually I cannot figure out what an artist is stating by his paintings. I’ve obviously have a lot to learn about art. Thanks for all the info you share with us! I can’t believe we have two weeks more and that’s it. Well hopefully I will finish my Zodiac by Mucha soon and it’s been great being a part of this event.

[@alenasmith2846]

I think the first time I was really shocked by art was when I discovered Caravagio...up until then it was all cherubs and angels. His artwork is some of the darkest I've seen and as a lifelong horror fan, I loved it. I think my favorite is "Judith Beheading Holofernes" which is exactly what it sounds like

[@tarasalad]

Wow - thank you for the suggestion! I've never seen this artist before.

[@rubyrunner4509]

I like googling the artist you talk about in your videos. Something I probably wouldn't do without summers with the masters event.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That makes me so happy! ❤

[@ginnytrioli3429]

Thanks so much for a great video Jessica. I always learn when I watch your videos. Keep them coming. I can't say I've ever been shocked in the way I think you mean but maybe stunned or taken aback would be better descriptions. The very first time I saw, in person and up close, Starry Night by Van Gogh I was mesmerized and I couldn't get over how beautiful the actual artwork was. I had seen a lot of prints and knock off pieces and the real live in person art took .g breath away. Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks for an awesome event. I really appreciate all that you and Katie put into this.

[@cynthiabujak2368]

Hey Jessica 😁 Thanks for the interesting video! I love watching your channel because one, I always learn something, and two, I love your warm, calming voice, even when showing your enthusiasm! When I discovered Josephine Wall, I was immediately struck with her art because of the symbolism contained within her images, both the overt things, and the more hidden things if you look closely enough! Have a wonderful day! 🥰🥰 xx Cynthia

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Aw, that's so sweet! Thank you!!

[@kcfield601]

I have always enjoyed the old art pieces. Frankly it doesn't shock me. Art is definitely "eye of the beholder". Just as music, if you don't like it, don't listen/look at it. I hate censorship. My biggest question in my 61 years is how much art did we lose during WW2. Art that is never to be seen again because an individual found it offensive. Sadly, our society is repeating that ideology. It literally scares me. You do beautiful work. Your teaching videos have helped me tremendously. So a very big thank you.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Yes, yes, yes to all! (And thank you!)

[@stickingwithdiamonds9529]

Thanks for such an interesting video!! As an adult, I'm not easily shocked but, I remember as a child being startled when I first saw an image of Michelangelo's "David" 🤭

[@girl_diamondz2132]

I’m working on Miranda the tempest by John William Waterhouse I’m more than 3/4 of the way through (I have run out of one colour drill so will contact the company when I come to the end for replacement) I was changed by art when I was a child and visited an art gallery with my grandmother I was inspired to paint… then again when I was a teenager my cousin studied art at university and as part of that she did a large portfolio of photographic art which my father helped her create frames for which inspired me in photography. Thank you for a wonderful video 💕

[@cepelovakatka]

Another amazingly interesting video,thank you so much. For a shocking art/artist I would go with Jan Saudek,he is Czech photographer and painter. He shows nudity in his work,but every piece has deeper meaning,some are political. Shocking but interesting art.

[@cedrinasdiamonds8785]

I was changed by art when I started opening my search for hobbies my husband works a lot and I knew I had to find something that peaked my interest so I did not feel so alone in my bordem lol but when I found diamond painting and all the beautiful woman and the beautiful people and Chanel’s I came across my world changed my thoughts and everything around art all the beautiful pieces I have come across finished or ddnt finish lol and all the remarkable events I have been following just like #summerwiththemasters2022# have really changed my thoughts on all art not just a specific type but all types I love it all so much and I couldn’t imagine my life any other way I see art for what it is and the beauty of it not just wow that’s pretty but wow look at the details I like to research on the artists if I can it’s just amazing and I love it so very much ❤️❤️

[@juliethomas6883]

Congrats on your new job!! I hope when things settle that you will be back in force with videos. Will miss you for Drills and Chills but totally understand needing a break.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

I hope so too! 😁 I definitely won't be going away, but things may be a bit sporadic for a while.

[@KK-er1vv]

What an excellent video, thank you! I've never participated in Summer with the Masters because, in general, I'm not a fan of the art from that time. I'm someone who loves dark art, and so I don't gravitate towards the Old Masters. That said, some of the art shown in this video is totally up my alley and I adore it. I'd love to do one of these in diamond art form and so perhaps I can have a custom canvass made for next year's event using one of these art pieces. Thanks for opening my eyes to this art.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is so awesome! Thanks for that feedback! ❤ There are definitely some boundary pushing old masters art out there.

[@tarasalad]

Not really sure if this fits, since I don't know if it's art and it wasn't shock as much as horror - but one specific thing came to mind. The shoes in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. For most museums I'm fascinated by the history but detached. When I got to those shoes, I stood there and just.broke.down. I've never had such a visceral reaction to seeing an exhibit before. Art or not, that exhibit reminded me history is real people. Hope all is well and you're enjoying the new job!

[@maperrin0214]

I love your segments!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Thanks so much!

[@anxietygirl74]

I always liked art but the 1st one who really struck a chord was M.C. Escher in my teens.

[@julie.sincitydiamondpainter]

Great video. Speaking of provocative art and a shock, it has to be the Shunga, a type of Japanese erotic art. Shunga is done in a style of Ukiyo-E (genre of Japanese art). Shunga were produced by ukiyo-e artists between 16th and 19th centuries.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

OMG - I actually contemplated putting some of these pieces in this video (Dream of the Fisherman's Wife anyone? 😳) along with The Origin of the World by Courbet, but I decided that might be a bridge too far for some of my viewers. 🤣

[@jleelee71]

Congrats on new job

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Thank you!

[@bumblebee9335]

For the super detailed DP, do you prefer square or round?

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

For very detailed canvases, definitely square. :)

[@debbiewilliams9983]

Yeah! I completed “The Swans” by Sir Frank Williams Brangwyn today! Approximately four to five weeks. It was a round kit so went a bit quicker than squares. Purchased this from Distracted by Diamonds. I realize I am not replying to question. It’s always a good feeling of accomplishment when a kit is completed. 😉 I do not do Facebook nor instagram, etc. so cannot post completed canvas.

[@tarasalad]

Congratulations on the completion! It must be absolutely beautiful!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Congratulations! I LOVE that canvas!!

[@deborahmt57]

Firstly, thank you for these thoughtful essays on art. I’m sorry the event is over soon, I’ll miss it. Secondly, I won the paddy wax kit! Whoo hoo! More scents for my collection. THANK YOU!!! Finally, I think I have a blind spot with provocative art. I don’t consume art that is violent, creepy, cruel etc… I don’t care that it’s out there, and I appreciate that art like this can be an agent for change, it’s just not for me. Here is an example, I don’t like landscapes that celebrate “the hunt”. I like dogs, horses and foxes but I’d rather have them depicted in Narnia than in this awful “sport”. Enjoy you new job!!!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

My pleasure! So excited for you!

[@Sonic.and.Tails.2013]

In HS in the 90s I came across an image of Jesus holding up a man. It is called Forgiven 2 by Thomas blacksheer. It is still my favorite

[@michelledecker1452]

Not really the answer you are intending I think, but one of the ways I've been shocked by art is size. When you see pictures, often you get little to no sense of scale. If you have the opportunity to see pieces in person, it can be surprising how large or small the piece actually is.

[@BeYOUtifulButterflies]

What an extremely interesting video. My earliest introduction of art was through the Greek Orthodox Church. Our churches are filled with hand painted icons of different Saints. Also the 12 Stations of Jesus life. They have a very distinctive style, rich colors usually painted on wood and with liberal use of gold leaf. About over a decade ago on one of trips to Greece I commissioned a handful of icons. One was in the very traditional style of Greek icons. The othered were in very beautiful rich colors on beautiful wood . All signed by the artists.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Ooh, I love Orthodox iconography! My family is Orthodox as well (Russian Orthodox), and I have wonderful memories of this kind of art.

[@BeYOUtifulButterflies]

@@tinyworldsofwonder I actually got to see the artist in action it was amazing. The brushes were micro brushes some only consisted of several hairs.

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

@@BeYOUtifulButterflies Whoa - that is incredible! That would be so fun to see!

[@daydreamsanddiamondart]

The first time I was shocked by art was the first time I saw an art exhibit at a museum. Looking at photos of paintings just does not do justice to how it feels to see paintings in person.

[@valeriemartin3506]

When I was first introduced to Leonardo Da Vinci, I was changed by 2 of his paintings. 1. The Last Super 2. The Mona Lisa The last Super brought a tangible "idea/reality" of who Jesus was for me. It brought my faith to a while new level as I felt the gravity of His love and what is sacrifice meant to me. The Mona Lisa change me and my ideas of beauty. I questioned whether the model knew that her likeness would be gazed and admired my millions of people spanning multiple generations.

[@noctoi]

Witches going to their Sabbath was one that shocked me in a GOOD way. The first time I saw it was in art history class in my 20's, and it was the first time I'd seen older people, fat people, men and women all depicted together in a level playing field. I'd never seen myself (a fat person) in art before unless it was staunchly making fun of or cautioning against... well... being me! I also grew up in a strict christian cult, and seeing something so counter to what I was brought up with was incredibly liberating. I love Zahrtmann's Loki. The artist no doubt had some problematic views on women, but I DO wonder how much of that was a combination of "protesting too much" and a symptom of being queer in a time where queerness could put him in real danger. Either way, he had a way with whimsically disdainful figures!

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

Absolutely YES to all! ❤

[@MsNinmah]

I think my first experience being shocked by art was back in middle school when I was in a catholic school and being surprised by the nudity and violence being depicted in some of the religious paintings. Particularly the ones that depicted hell. I was surprised by the detail these paintings would go into and that they were embraced by the religion.

[@mimifs22]

Thanks for this great video. Can you talk all your round about art? I love it, never tought this dp advernture would let to this, i had some art history for school. So i am really enjoying this. The artwork which i dont know what to think of are te sculptures of Ron Meuck, not al old master. His work is so real and big that i dont know if i loved id for the detail of it, of i dont like because it is so big, that is gives my the creaps

[@tinyworldsofwonder]

That is so kind! I would love to continue videos like this when time allows! ❤

[@TSLDame-Crafts]

I can't think of any time I was shocked or changed by art other than my favorite color is blue. *shrug Sorry.

[@grandprixlight]

I grew up in a very strict Catholic family and nudity was not something we ever heard of or talked about as children. The first time I saw an image of Michaelangelo's David statue I was shocked that something so risque existed. How things have changed. lol

[@Mayra---]

First I was surprised at a young age that not all art were realistic paintings like portraits, still lifes and such. Second i found out about anti-art that mocked the line of what art is. Such as the famous urinal and bike wheel on a stool. Like art was a joke of society. Never liked that since my studies were at an art school and it is important to me. Also, never in my studies i found out about the artist waterhouse, this event introduced me to more new artists!

[@tarasalad]

Not really sure if this fits, since I don't know if it's art and it wasn't shock as much as horror - but one specific thing came to mind. The shoes in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
