Jannik Hösel on How He Taught Himself to Paint and His Take on the Role of Symbols in Storytelling

- Jannik Hösel is a German classical painter currently studying with Odd Nerdrum.
Growing up in an environment that offered no possibilities to be formally trained in the craft, he chose to go down the autodidactic road, and sits down in the Cave to share his knowledge on self-learning, which ranges from suggested exercises and how to think as you study - to basic awareness of painting materials.
Hösel is also concerned with the psychological faithfulness of motifs. He warns against becoming too "symbolic" or "deep", and how you can attain the middle road of storytelling.

Without doubts CZcams has been, for me, the main source of knowledge and learning about Art in general, figurative arts and anything about oil painting. The huge amount of great quality channels on CZcams is an incredible gift for those - like me - didn’t have the opportunity to go to art school or pursue “normal” ways to learn how to paint. And I did learn! Am I a good painter? No, but I’m vastly better than the day I started painting, and this is thanks to the many great CZcams art channels that helped me.
Can you recommend me some CZcams channel
I'm self-taught. Many historical artists are self-taught. If I could afford to go to an artist's Atelier I would but I don't have the time or money so I have to learn on my own. That's one of the reasons why I want your videos and follow artists like odd nerdrum
Me the same.I mainly draw for some years, refused colors and paint until now and in me live parts from each of them . A new body of emotion wich I consider even not belonging to me .Let them know how much we ow to each kind soul , and now I have discovered this cave, this precious well of spirit here.
Excellent interview
Dude looks like a Renaissance painting
"Timeless Art" love that as an ideal for anypainter. The time is not right just now for valueing timeless art. We live in a disposable consciousness where things are made by robots,cheap products with no heart or soul.Modern Art is a reflection of where society is at ---for now---nothing art . Times will change and those working to higher ideals with their art will one day come to be rediscovered and connect with people seeking more out of the meaning of life
Where is your light shining?
Very inspiring. I need to take his advice to heart since I struggle with a number of hangups being very much a beginner at painting.

Hi, great video. What’s the music in the intro? Thanks!
Ultimately, at the end of the day, the only real thing you get from a university or art school is guidance. But, the artist will have to put in the time. I went to a university for figurative work and received no real guidance or training compared to an Atelier. I didn’t even know such schools and training existed until after I had my degree. Me attending a university wasn’t all for nothing, as I received time to experiment and hold myself accountable. None the less, CZcams is helpful when navigating the type of work one wants to create. Lastly, I know I am not alone when I believe that artists are on a never ending journey.
Velazquez is my teacher now.... and probably forever. As good as Rembrandt is... I think Velazquez is the best.
Really?…
Why do you think Velazquez is the best?
(In particular, why better than rembrandt?)
Thank you for your opinion
@@erxfav3197 Mainly because Velazquez captured the spirit of his subjects whereas Rembrandt's portraits look posed, statuesque and do not move me in the least. Velazquez portraits seem to breath while Rembrandt's sitters look like they are holding their breath. Velazquez portraits of dwarves or his assistant Juan de Pereja are very moving and I don't think Rembrandt has comparable pieces. Also, Velazquez economy of brush strokes appeal to me more than Rembrandts overworked surface. Of course, this is only my personal opinion.... one could easily make an argument for Rembrandt. I also think Velazquez was better at anatomy... much of Rembrandt's work looks awkward. I do like Rembrandts lighting very much. Velazquez understates and Rembrandt overstates. I would rather study late Titian than Rembrandt. Much more I could say but my opinion matters not.... what does your heart tell you? That's what counts.
40:04 Amen to that. Beaux-arts are dead. I also didn't attend. Every fine art school in Europe is more concerned about teaching Marxism instead of actual painting.
I suggest Jannik switch the baby and the staff, in that, I suspect the woman should be holding the staff in her right hand and the baby should be held in her left arm (and the baby would be facing their future self).
