  • From the Early Renaissance to the end of the 19th Century, elements of Art developed in a way that is visible if you pay close attention. If you are a visual artist, learning to recognize these elements will help your work.
    Thank You San Diego Museum of Art!!!!!

    Cesar, maestro, this is brilliant - even more so than your other usual super brilliant vlogs. Please let's keep trying to make the modern Realists conceive of their ideas visually, rather than (mistakenly) thinking that the simple Narrative statement is enough. Paintings are made of coloured shapes (coloured shapes are their basic vocabulary), and today's Realists have to realise that their job is to manipulate, group and design these shapes into a pattern that pushes the Narrative into the viewer's consciousness. This is called Pictorial Composition and is only taught, these days, at the Angel Academy of Art, Florence.
    Bravo, caro mio!! Sei un grande davvero!

  • @rodline9027
    @rodline9027 Před 6 lety +55

    Listening to you talk about art is incredibly inspiring.
    You really need to do a book for artists on how to look at art and the ask the important questions one should be considering when viewing a piece.
    In this video you are giving me questions I might never have thought to ask about a piece.

    • @rodline9027
      @rodline9027 Před 6 lety +3

      david bryan I agree. I also think there is a academic,theoretical way to approach looking at art. It's different, more through a learning lens... if that makes sense.
      Thanks for replying

  • @robhaidheuch
    @robhaidheuch Před 4 lety +1

    Thanks for confirming I have been on the right track as I continue on my journey of understanding how to approach my own painting. I only disovered the existence of the Angel School in Florence today. I failed to be accepted as a student at Glasgow School of Art back in the 1970s, but I'm glad now I was rejected as I suspect my love of classical Art would have been crushed by the school. I had assumed , in my naivety, that access to that school would have trained me in the methods of the Old Masters.

    I love how you make complex theories easy to understand. I bought your portrait painting video and I love it. Afterwards I found your CZcams channel and it feels like bonus material. If anyone out there is contemplating buying his painting video and is scared by the price. Do it! You will not be disappointed. He explains painting portraits in the same easy to understand way as all of these CZcams videos. Cesar I love your CZcams channel. I am so glad I bought your painting video, I have learned so much. Keep it up please.

Now i'm gonna rap this comment up, now I know the lines I need to create the right illusion, how to balance light and color to create an even distribution.
