As a college student at an art school right now can I just say THANK YOU FOR LITERALLY SAYING WHAT'S BEEN ON MY MIND EVER SINCE I STARTED STUDYING ART!! I think it's RIDICULOUS the amount of money you have to pay for paintings that look like it could take you 10 seconds to make. Sure sure, there could be a "deeper meaning" or whatever, but paying MILLIONS for that is so stupid to me. This literally made my day, thank you for this haha.

[@desireeroseta1421]

I do not agree honestly!! Because it made you angry!!! And that is what art is meant to do (make you feel feelings) so the more you feel for it, the more it’s worth in my eyes!! :) also art is so personal!

[@triaconstantlycreatink]

ummm, im with you when it comes to the money, but art- is not appriciated due to the time it takes to be created or how 'perfect' it is. Ok, learn how to draw perfectly that doesnt make you an artist. Kris is not an aritst and she doesnt have knowledge of why and when these were created. again im not saying all of them are good. But ,please, art is not all renaissance art and art is not only paintings. People should start educating themselves on art and history- theory of it.

[@clairegolder3683]

@@desireeroseta1421another argument with your point is the whole “I could do that”, yeah, but you didn’t! Maybe it’s more touchy for me since I have a degree in art history, but the points of most of these pieces was question the status quo of what was considered “art”, and some even to give off an “aura” or vibe based on carefully chosen colors (aka the Rothko)

[@bugapanda5743]

when i was in high school i spent 8 hours on an anime sketch with a full scenery and watercolor background and my art teacher said it was real art and the same week we had a lesson on renaissance art vs modern art and had shown a canvas with one...

When people need shaming tactics to justify their creation, they are probably not good people. And the creation probably isn't that great.

[@DragonCTR]

I had an art teacher that said, "It's not necessarily what you put on the canvas, it's the emotions you put into it. If you feel chaotic, sad, angry, or creative, you can make a splatter look like a masterpiece." And someone did just that. They got an A

[@WilhelmEley]

@@DragonCTR Yeah, and that's precisely bullshit. What actually happened historically: Art/Trade/Craft were essentially interchangeable, with the industrial revolution and modern technologies such as photography, on the one hand, and a new epoch in art/architecture (Bauhaus), both the union of artist and producer of goods, and the union of art and product dissociated. Now we are stuck in a time where goods being genuinely a work of art is defamed as "Kitsch" even when it is good. And a time where people have split art from craftmanship. E.g. Stuccoworkers/Plasterers don't learn anymore how to make beautiful stuccos, as a requirement to become master craftsmen in their trade. On the other side people can get an art degree without even being good on the technique. They went to such an extreme now, that you hear shit like what your teacher said. Your teacher subscribes to a very intellectualized and abstracted approach, that doesn't come from artists with a soul, but from academia, it is sickening to be honest. Truly great artis doing it all, it is a masterwork in terms of craftmanship, it is extremely aesthetic and deeply meaningful. And if you go to the pre-industrial age levels, ideally you even go beyond that, and make it a technological masterpiece with utility, then you are a true master artist. Your teacher is a clown.

Fun fact, with the pop art looking piece (10:23), that is not actually pointillism. it is a style developed in the 1950's for comic books called Ben-day dots. It is supposed to make colors pop and make it easier to create vibrant panels that don't take too much ink to print out. the style was wildly popular from the 50's and 60's and was used in a lot of pop art pieces as a way of creating new, eye-catching pieces that stood out amongst traditional and post-modern art.

Artists usually get paid very little, and someone else profits from selling their work. It doesn’t matter if it’s fine art or graphic art or cartoons or what have you. Then later, usually after they’re dead, it ends up in a museum.

[@jordanwendell2972]

Hello! I actually just learned about Mark Rhothko in my art class and everyone is totally entitled to their opinion but theres actually more to his work. His solid color artwork was made when himself as an artist felt as if his artwork wasnt significant in the slightest after coming out of the second world war, and the cold war. In fact a lot of artists went through that feeling of uselessness at that time. So he decided that he would create an experience over something to gawk at. That painting that kris looked at in reality is insainely huge. Like im talking 10 by 8 feet. (Im not 100 percent sure about the dimensions of that specific painting but just imagine big.) Rhothko wanted his art to be viewed extreamly up close and personal. His paintings are intended to be veiwed at five inches away from the face so your vision is completely enveloped in the color he painted. On a day to day basis that experience is very rare and out of the ordinary for you to experience. Im gonna be honest i thought his paintings were really pretentious at first but after learning about him ive gained a new appreciation for his work. Im not telling anyone how to feel either i just thought id shed some light into something people might not know a lot about. :)

As someone who has a degree in Fine Art, I absolutely agree with you, Kris. These paintings are for sheep who want to look intellectual by ‘loving’ a piece because the art world tells them they should. Serious artists who create beautiful pieces or pieces that communicate social commentary can’t make a living because people fall all over themselves to buy this Pollack-esque garbage. Chuck Close’s hyper realism isn’t exactly the most beautiful work in the world, but I admire it for its technical mastery. And yet, you never hear about him anymore.

This reminds me of how as a Creative Writing major, I was annoyed by pretentious classes/professors going on about specific significance in poems, biographical interpretations, and so on. So I wrote a piece of poetry SPECIFICALLY meant to confound and confuse people using those kinds of interpretive techniques, and lead them to entirely wrong conclusions about me and my life. 5 years later, I gave that poem to another creative writer as a "see how clever I am" jest, and not only did she pull it apart, but she pointed out how every element of the poem WAS, in fact, ACCURATELY describing me.

[@LaynieFingers]

When I was in art school back in the middle ages, we were given an assignment: make a collage from magazines, then paint a picture of the collage we made. I had so much fun making a stupid collage- a dead goldfish belly up in a fish bowl, with other stuff... I wasn't going for a message, it was just fun colorful images. My professor went on and on in the critique- clearly it referenced this painter and that one, and was a commentary on blah de blah. Then she looked at me and said, "That's right, isn't it?" Being young and stupid, I replied, "Ummm...it's a dead fish." Professor wasn't amused. Class was.

I edit books for a living. My favorite thing is when people pull apart the meaning of books online but when I ask the author if that's why they wrote it, they always say, "Nope. I wrote it because it was a good story."

[@LaynieFingers]

@@noteworthyinsignificance In my opinion, that's the beauty of art. Once I've made something, I'm done with it, and moving on to something new. The different interpretations are fine, and valid- whatever you feel is valid whether I intended it or not. The problem I have is when someone says the artist CLEARLY intended this, because only the artist knows what they intended. Sometimes a dead fish can be a statement about society. Sometimes, though, it's just a dead fish.

[@InspectahReese]

I took a very advanced art class in college cause I needed more credits before the end of the year so I was completely out of my depth the entire class but somehow passed at the end cause of an abstract painting i quickly threw together, like I literally put paint on a canvas then chucked it into a field of wet grass and when I gave it to my pretentious art teacher he started crying because he thought i was a savant or something

[@Merbuggy1610]

I just finished a senior seminar project that was 81 pages. I’m only writing about myself and my life. It’s nothing special. Anyone could write that much about their own life, but in it I mention art like this. The genius behind art like this is yeah you could do it. You could make these paintings and sell them, but you didn’t. You don’t. You didn’t take the same path to reach that idea and outcome as the artist did. Art embraces originality even when it’s just a greenish blue line on a blue background, because someone did that before anyone else thought to. I see beauty in that, personally.

[@realizedemoneyes]

in the mark Rothko painting there is actually a lot of technic which is hard to see in a picture but irl they are actually really pretty because he layers his paints super thinly on top of eachother which makes them really dynamic

[@PatternRecognitionMusic]

Came to the comments looking for this. I've been to the Rothko Chapel several times, each time is like a new experience. Standing in front of the canvases and taking in all of the subtlety of the brush strokes and shades that reveal themselves was like an awakening - Rothko's paintings and Alessandro Cortini's Forse trilogy were probably the two biggest inspirations for me as I began to explore minimalism in my own creative endeavors.

[@meganzeliadt]

I personally really enjoy Mark Rothko's work, when it comes to abstract it tends to get a bad wrap because it can be super easy to make but it tends to be more about the idea than the product. Such as Rothko, he is known for the color block work and what you're suppose to do is just look at the piece and absorb the colors and how they make you feel emotionally. Interesting fact is his earlier work is much more colorful and towards the end of his life they get darker, really playing in on the emotions he was feeling as he had unfortunately unalived himself. Completely understand bashing on the rich using art for the wrong reasons but the artist may have more intentions behind their art that what is shown on canvas. Abstract art was once a new, crazy idea.

I think that a major part of artworks is not really being an amazing painter or “one of the greats” but more so being able to think of something new and original which in my opinion is a lot harder to do (and this is also why “the greats” are so famous because they where able to make something so original for their time)

[@realizedemoneyes]

Nailed it!

[@seraagius2450]

Her compliments cure my body dysmorphia 😭❤️

[@AMN_7]

Kris is so naturally creative and talented! I think the painting came out great. I just love Kris’ imagination through the painting!

[@unholysadboi2401]

Kris's intros got me pushing my hair behind my ear and going "oh stop" 🤣🤣🤣

[@user-Mr.Cookies]

Chris, your mini Pete is so adorable. I love it. Thank you for making it. It’s so cool.😊

[@aoifedeborha2420]

Me: Immediately searches it up on Etsy Also Kris if you see this, you’re an absolute legend and one of my favourite KZbinrs!!! Thank you so much for your positivity (((:

[@imjuliewaters]

I looked for it too, but couldn't find it. 😭

[@ChelseaRoeser]

Srsss!! Where is it?!

[@sarailopez3331]

Did you find it? I couldn’t!

[@ChelseaRoeser]

@@sarailopez3331 I didn't 😲😲

[@aoifedeborha2420]

To all of you guys asking, I couldn’t find it either 😭😭😭

[@sylvfallen]

As someone who love Kris but also studies the tragic story of Mark Rothko and his art….this one hurt. For anyone who want to learn a great intro is the play “Red” which covers his art pretty well.

[@chandrarye]

Nother Rothko fan here (who also watches Kris' content)! Tragic story indeed, tragic.

[@mxgeeTV]

that's so funny, I just commented about him before I went thru other comments. I don't know his story but his work resonates with me. my best friend is a fan and also a former museum nerd so she explains certain things to me to make them seem less "anybody could do this."

[@bistromathics6]

Saw the play, hated the play. Would never buy it, for this and other reasons. No matter what the price, it's hideous

[@sylvfallen]

⁠@@bistromathics6 that’s the fun thing with art. Each art piece isnt for everyone. It’s totally reasonable to experience a piece and determine it’s not for you. Everyone has things that resonate with them, if Rothko or Red weren’t for you that’s totally fair. I personally love to see more people’s perspectives and preferences- do you have a specific artist you do jibe with?

[@brendatomlinson]

@@sylvfallenThe artist I vibe with most, in recent years, is Paul Klee. It’s simple, child-like, and uplifting to me.

[@sincerelyhero]

As an artist this was SUCH a fun video to watch!! Love you're stuff girl!!

[@desireeroseta1421]

Art is meant to make you feel something. Whether it’s joy, sadness, disgust, or even just confusion. I believe the more it makes you feel, the more it’s worth! But I am also biased as an abstract artist ❤️ personally, my art saves my life and selling it hurts my heart so that may be why artists price the art so high because it’s personal. ❤️

[@giotrevi6651]

The first painting looks actually very pretty to me. The colors speak to me. But I agree that art can be quite weird.

[@b_man-25]

I think it should be noted most of these got expensive after the artist died. The artists aren't pricing them like this, it's just billionaire investors ripping off other billionaire investors and trying to get tax credits and/or stash assets

[@SpookyGhostBoOooO]

Omg your audio sounds so clear my ears haven't heard this clear of an audio in forever.

[@vbkenesha]

Girl your hair is soooo fluffy!!! I love it

[@DorkyWolf]

I love Kris's videos....and as someone who is an artist myself, I will say that usually the artists themselves aren't the ones putting the prices on the art pieces themselves, but the people who originally bought them from the artists (or the ones that got ahold of a deceased artists artwork)

[@onceuponamelody]

"It's all a LIE!" (hyperventilates into mic) 😂 Yeah, it is ridiculous... But this video was hilarious.

[@RollingDutchmann]

The painting actually turned out great

[@my-singing-Catalyst]

Looking absolutely AMAZING today Kris. Beautiful. Priceless!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@Alister_Amerilix]

Kris’s art is actually good though 14:59

[@ohnonotagain8935]

Would have been nice had she kept the painting in her etsy store longer than 24hrs of posting the video as even the store doesn't exist anymore. I think she posted the video after the fact thus advertising it's existence after the fact

[@motivationalspeaker7145]

Yeah I wonder who bought it

[@LeviosaLydia]

THE WAY JAY APOLOGIZED FOR NOT WRITING A SONG!!!!!!😂😂😂

[@slubberdagollian]

Cy Twombly's art looks exactly like the doodle's my mother would draw while listening to her legal clients talk about nothing. By the end of the month, her desk calendar was full of them.

[@midight_wolf64]

Your painting is so cool! I actually genuinely like it (not like with meaning or anything it's just pretty), unlike most of the expensive pieces

[@Destiny_Swiftie]

KRIS UPLOADED! GUYS QUEEN UPLOADED 🫶🏻

[@im-just-here._.]

I've always wanted to see a vidio of kris painting cause she's really good💕❤️

[@taisiamather4737]

I’m learning about Roy Lichtenstein in school so I thought it was funny Kris just hamming on his artwork Also we was one of the first artist to do pop art

[@Stefkovskaaa]

Kris makes my day everytime,she is a shooting STAR!!!Also your skill for art is a 20/10

[@Ilovepizza12]

Her intros are just perfection. Always managed to make them unique✨✨✨

[@zarahcuchara_mendoza]

00:08 This is the most supreme compliment one can ever receive.
