First to reply, nice

Wow, you really want to make that ARTY word a thing.

[@SleepyDragonArts]

Hi

[@lisallama4103]

[@MangoJet408]

When you try to do abstract art, it's not that it is bad, you just don't have much variety. You always tend to go the same direction, try going all sorts of directions and bring in even more textures and movement by using different types of brushes and spatulas. Even scraping away some of the paint that you already put down can leave an interesting effect, especially if you're using a thicker medium. You know how to use negative and positive space, that is something that also can really work well in your favor. These are tips that my college professor gave me when I was dealing with the same kind of problem. My favorite is abstract expressionism, if you look at it, there is so much depth to all the movement within the painting. If you see this then I hope it helps.

[@king_kyojuro651]

Said like a poet.

[@ciaociara]

Thanks for the tips!

[@Simos719]

Yeah, I agree, (also a look to modernism[history of Art, even suprematism, and constructivism ] will help to understand what are the basic of abstract art, and make it more clear and easy to understand)

[@KiX-K4T13]

You're awesome, Kaylea! Thank you so much for recognizing what seemed amiss and for providing a solution to that minor problem as well. I literally just learned that abstract expressionism is literally what I do for warm ups before I start painting and drawing.

[@Ixarus6713]

I think a big issue is Jazza wants a subject, but abstract art generally has no subject, the art itself is the subject. Aka, using it to build backgrounds and subjects works, but a lot of abstract art is directionless or disturbed formations, not a cool background with a subject in the foreground like he seems to prefer.

[@madkarma2248]

I had a class where we talked Michelangelo and how he had to paint the Sistine chapel ceiling on his back. For my assignment in that class we taped a paper to the bottom of our desks and had to draw. It was really hard and it would be a fun video idea to see you do something like that. Like try painting upside down to get the real Michelangelo experience.

[@kalinaszek]

He could paint ceiling of one of rooms

[@m105chelle]

Cool idea!

[@Benji-il7wv]

[@SamanthaAndersonArtist]

I've seen people put super thick paint in piping bags and use frosting tips to create an array of flowers, let them dry (for like, a week) and then put it all together to create a 3D Bouquet or other paintings. Would LOVE to see you try that!

[@BelindaShort]

I wish that he would just watch some tutorials for things and give other artists that he gets these ideas from a little credit. He sees this stuff being made elsewhere and then he decides he wants to figure it out, not learning about it first, and playing around, which is valid, but also I wish he'd learn a bit from others and then share what he learned and credit them. This particular style isn't as big of a deal but sometimes he's working with really complicated stuff that others have spent years perfecting.

[@GenesisMoodie]

That seems pretty cool!

[@moonbeamstry5321]

Fantastic idea!! Heck, has Jazza ever tried decorating a cake? I'd love to see him do something more traditional and a hyper realistic cake.

[@fromash5289]

@@BelindaShort What credit is there to give exactly? The first impasto painters of the 1400's? It's ridiculous to think you have to credit someone jumping in on (or even starting a trend) a style that's been around for centuries, which spoiler alert, is most of art. As for him actually educating himself a bit before making a practice session into a full on video, I actually dislike most of his content lately for the sake of the craft. Most of it has been looking incredibly rushed and sloppy as of late, but I also understand that the video production is his business. Dude's got his family and his employees families to worry about. Expecting him to spend weeks or simply even days off camera learning a new technique is incredibly unrealistic.

I think the middle one worked because you weren't trying to draw a picture as such, both the first and last one had an object that could have been easily replaced with normal paint and look just as good (if not better). Would be great to see you go really abstract and embrace some elements of your mop and drip paintings!

[@adamgtrap]

I'm not an artist and also have no idea what you're doing. But I really liked the modelling paste version, looks like icing. My limited "art experience" is simple doodles with lines, knitting, or cake decorating (which I've had the most fun with but don't have an oven in my current home).

[@katnance6155]

You can always buy a premade cake and decorate it yourself? Or muffins, and ice them?

@frootie love your comment, someone at work asked if I’m an artist just because I love to be able to spread happiness to my clients at work because I can feel they love art but I got stopped because an actual art instructor will be joining us soon so I being not an actual certified “artist” asked to step aside even before my program gets to start since then I have been wondering if only people who studied arts in schools are artists or anyone who create anything = artists too

[@cordoesart]

The red-to-yellow canvas makes me think of dragon scales, which is what makes it my favorite. That, and the colors being great. Honestly surprised you didn't draw a dragon, as cool as the medium was.

[@lazyfoxplays8503]

Abstract art is all about one big thing: Capturing an emotion or feeling. Doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you look at the piece and feel a complete or specific feeling, then you nailed it!

[@kirbthebean]

Perfectly said

[@NiKKey411]

The orange ombre is my fave because it reminds me of that cool lazy hack animation style to fill in background charaters like a baseball statium.. I love that because of how simple it is it leaves so much to the imagination, I imagine all the faces, expressions what they are eating, if they have hair, no hair or hats...i could go on and on I just *LOVE* it

[@Luminty99]

It's mind blowing to me how you can mix so much white into a little bit of paint and it still keeps its color. How

[@BillCiphersArtist]

Since white is a tint it can only lighten something wrather then over take it like other colors xan because other colors have shade in it which is why mixing just a little black will darken something extremely and can overtake the color

[@laurfincher8137]

the reason professional paints are expensive is because they have more pigment in them. Lots of pigment is key and that is why the professionals use high quality paints.

[@TAmberTaylorStudio]

It also depends on how opaque your white paint is.

[@tymondabrowski12]

That's why there are usually two kinds of white for all or almost all artist professional paints: one is Zinc white, more transparent, and tge other is Titanium White, which us more opaque. It's the pigment being more opaque, not just the end product. The Zinc white is often called "mixing white" because it's more useful in mixing. I would assume the impasto medium is relatively transparent on its own.

[@janemorrow6672]

What I really like about your approach is that you use a Play-Experiment-Create approach when you are trying new things. A lot of people confuse the play and experiment bits of the process and they are actually very different.

[@swing9799]

I love the orange-yellow one The texture, the simplicity, the wabi-sabi…

[@thehint1954]

I thought it looked like a crowd of people

[@thenatashadoran]

I would love to see you experiment with art in the style of Eric Carle! Painting textures on tissue paper and cutting those into shapes to make the final artwork.

[@KelseyDrummer]

I did that as a kid and loved it.

[@tasneemrossenkhan8941]

One helpful way to practice impasto is to do some warm ups before you create (take the tool you are using and swatch some textures and and stokes before you do the final piece) I find that, like with drawing, if you warm up your hand and wrist beforehand it makes it easier to do impasto. Tip #2 if you are working with chunkier or more detailed pieces let it dry a bit then add make more strokes the paint paste will hold its shape better. Tip #3 if you have the problem with the cheap paints (lightening of the pigment) I know some artists that paint on top of the paste after its dry then you get a richer colour on a budget.. Try them out and hopefully they will be helpful to those who want to try

[@user-xc3ql7rj7z]

You can also paint on the impasto in its original form and paint over it with your paints after! havn't finished the vid yet so maybe you did but if not, that's my preferred way of using it :)

new idea: try scultured florals with icing bags (like for confectioner purposes) The artist abstracts by adrienne does beautiful floral bouquet with really heavy heavy acrylics.

[@kobrazzz]

Hey Jazza! There is another really cool way to paint. Try these things called paint pours. Mix acrylic paint with glue( eyeball it) and add a little water and a few drops of silicon. Then pour onto the canvas and let it dry for a long time. Pouring with the canvas flat is the best way. It comes out really cool!

[@PKMNmastercass]

You can use impasto in oil paint with icing bags and cake piping tips to get some cool effects

[@ashleyadams3088]

Thank you for being the first comment to actual spell out the word 'impasto" so I could be certain of what he was saying.

[@miriamkatz925]

the portrait you made looks awesome!! I'm more into surrealism rather than abstract myself, but I have a friend who creates really magnificent abstract art. And I think she would agree that you nailed that warrior portrait!

[@bludaizee24]

I like the orange painting best with light on top. It looks like kinda like feathers. A big impasto rising Phoenix would be awesome!💛🧡❤

[@austino2763]

I loved each one for different reasons, The persona of what you described as a soldier was very edgy, serious, moody, and delivers a clear emotion along with a satisfying texture and color palette. As a fan of art and a creator of art who doesnt love a good gradient? the Texture and matte finish it had with those THICC gloops looked great. Lastly the Abstract bird, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and my favorite way to observe art is to see it next to the artists other paintings, it gives perspective into the person who created the pieces and allows for better appreciation of all the pieces. Loved it. Thanks for always giving your all Jazza & thank you to all the team members that make the videos happen :)

[@thecasualgoth6666]

This looks so fun! I think it would be cool for you to go bigger and thicker (excuse the innuendo) I’ve seen people make paintings that are pretty much 3d sculptures

This is great! As epic and awesome as the recent videos have been, I've missed just seeing Jazza talking to the camera and being there with him as he "mucks around" with stuff and tries new things - being there with him at the table for the process. Love it! Thanks, Jazza! Also- I love the warrior in the fire. It prompts me to want to write about him. What's his story? What has brought him to this moment? Is this a moment of defeat or just after a hard-won and costly victory? So good!

[@thisisnotthechannelyourelo407]

Haha, this was great. I appreciate that you share something despite not knowing what you're really doing, but trying to have fun with it and learn something new at the same time. I learned something new, that I can make my own impasto paints with simple ingredients. Thanks Jazza!

I would really like to see you do a huge painting, something really abstract and borderline “dumb” but then take it to a legit art show or auction house and see how much money you could sell it for!

[@tillystreet4657]

I love how your immediate inclination is to "go bigger". Love it mate

[@AlucardRawks]

So I think that maybe you're being too tight and refined. Impasto is more of a suggestion of subject and overworking is so easy to do. Maybe try giving yourself an extremely limited time to do a canvas, like a minute or two to force yourself to only do the most basic shapes and rely on texture, hue, and tone to convey the subject and to limit dangers of overworking as you can't work on one area for long.

[@fobo3361]

Instead of bigger...maybe just...more? Practice y'know

[@vampyrboyfriend5133]

I've seen a trend on TikTok where artists mix very fine sand in with their paints. It gives an impasto and grainy texture that they use to make really cool artwork. It would be cool to see you try that out, if you want.

One thing that helps me with abstract concepts is to picture the final image/work in front of a massive, plain wall. How is it going to look in a blank space (light or dark)? Or how would it look in a crowded room? On a crowded wall. The work itself may be great, or bad, but the context of its placement might strengthen it after or influence the ideas before, when conceptualizing it.

I read something bout modeling paste that they are not to be mixed with paints but rather are applied directly in a gessoed canvas, shape em by the texture you want to achieve, let it dry, and sand it after if necessary. After all of it, you can lay your paints there. Modeling paste truly lightens your paint if you mix em.
