You should try to do nail art that would be funny to watch
He’d have to borrow someone else’s nails! (Love you, Jazza!)
@@MissCathexis or just apply fake nails
@@MissCathexis Lmao yesssssss!
Or even better... makeup!
@@panicatmybrain5933 He already did that
the self portrait was mad good
Tom Reichardt ikr
Yeah it also looked like logan paul (NO HATE)🤣
Tom Reichardt no it was happy good
I’m sorry.
Androoo ikr😂
Androoo it really did 😂 but I don’t really like him
what do you get when you screw up abstract art?
answer: modern art
Lisa Edwards modern art is just a dot or scribbles or stripes
Lisa Edwards there won’t be any realistic paintings for years thanks to that
@@CherriNGT And it sells for milions of dollars -_-
that‘s what people say who have no idea about art
@@lukaswadlinger6357 It was a joke...
I made abstract art on my dinner plate. I call it "leftovers".
Think I've found the best comment to date.
BAA-HAHAHAHAH! This is awesome. Made me LOL for real.
😂 😂
you're both wrong and right :D
This comment was so good and underrated that I subscribed to you
"Screw It Up" Only Happy Little Accidents Here folks
*Sobs* BOBBB ROSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( He watches over this video from heaven
I love that you gave this a legit, respectful attempt. I like your self-portrait, too!
This guy should try spray paint art
Wha
@@fruitygreenmedia he did
@@fruitygreenmedia i think he did it in vr, i dont know if hes don it irl but please correct me if im wrong
Edit wait i checked, hes done it irl and i forgot about it, however id love to see it on a bigger scale
I dont know why but the portrait reminded my of Logan Paul 😂
I like the golden sun one with the leaves. good stuff on all.
I'd buy the self portrait it looks cool
I'd buy the cat painting.
It looks like logan paul 😂 the self portrait
@@ShikyouAmanojaku oh shit... I can't unseen it
I really like the one with the gold and the dots. It makes me think of autumn leaves twirling in the wind, right before twilight when the light of the sun is bright and golden. It's peaceful and joyous.
Renske Dunnewold I like that one. It is my favorite one.
It looks like logan Paul
Renske Dunnewold that one made me think of marigold petals and día de los muertos
that's also my favorite, it reminds me of a sunset.
That's the beauty of abstract art. It made me feel happy and almost had a religious like sense to me.
I actually really like the gold-leafed one because it reminds me of sunflowers in the spring for some reason. Also, the self portrait one was pretty cool too.
Dastiny Farmer, those were my two favorite as well ^_^
Him:Diving straight in and into the deep end!
Me: If you dove into the shallow end head first I feel like that would be more dangerous
Miss Mistique
Lol true
Taking it literally I see
i think that too
Wow I never thought about that
I'm one of those people who, while I don't really understand the deeper meaning of abstract art, can really enjoy the colors and shapes. It's just visual appeal. I think that the majority of these hit that mark. It kinda makes me want to try.
I think the meaning in most art is made up. A good abstract should just look cool, be pretty or edgy and be a good decoration for a wall. A great abstract can make the room and can invoke feelings. I'm an artist and the message I am sending with my art is usually " I'm pretty to look at and you need to buy me because you've never seen any art more beautiful. It's one of a kind you must have it!" I'm not sending a political statement or have some deep meaning behind it. I saw something that inspired me and I painted it. You are not the only one that doesn't get the meaning. Likely there was never a meaning to get. Some people would like you to feel dumb for not seeing the meaning. It just makes them feel smart. Ignore that stuff.
Go ahead and try. It's finished when it looks good. Otherwise keep going. Mix colors first. Color right out of the tube can be less interesting unless you are going for those really bright vivid. It might help to look at things you think are pretty and use those colors together that you already know you like together. Some colors just don't look great side by side. That should help you succeed. You can so do this. Abstract can be just playing with paint until a happy accident makes it look good. Having a plan helps. You can take a photo and enhance it in photo shop until it doesn't look like anything anymore and try to paint it if it looks cool. That's my advice and yes anyone who cares enough to put in the time can make art. Have fun!
when i look at abstract art i just wanna slap them on the floor cuz they have pretty patterns
Every time I watch someone do "abstract art" I go...
"This looks like crap."
"Oh that's nice."
"Oh no he's ruining it! I like it like this! No! Staaahp!"
"Oh... Hm. Hmmmm."
"Oh that looks great. I knew he could do it. I had absolute trust in him all along!"
"Oh what's he doing now...? Oh... Oh, this looks like trash..."
Repeat.
WHEN DOES IT END IVE BEEN READING IT FOR 3 HOURS NOW AHH
Same.

Every negative comment on the abstract art is you forgetting it’s meant to be abstract.
@@milster08 this is not a negative comment, every abstract art relates to everyone in different ways, and maybe, watching it's process of being created just relates to us in a way in the middle and then it lost the meaning in the end, that's our feelings answering the art live, as it's being created. Some might like, some might not, some might like it in the middle and don't at the end, that's what's this comment was about or just how I felt about this. Like, in the black and white one that jazza made, i didn't like that green part. It was so good to me before the green part... Anyways that's it
I really liked cat, and the self-portrait. The more generic pieces I do have difficulty connecting with, but the ones that have a subject at the center of them I like a bit better. Really liked seeing you attempt this. I'd love to see you try the paint pouring art. I think that would really be a step outside your comfort zone, since it's almost impossible to control what the end result might be.
Hell yea, he should try something like Jackson Pollock did back then, would be lovely to see Jazza just running around the canvas and doing the best he can
I actually like the opposite, it's cool to see how different people like different styles!
(The self portrait was amazing and I loved that as well)
I read your comment as soon as he said cat
The self portrait looked great!!! I honestly thought Of human torch or something when I saw it.
I like the cat also
You should team up with Christine from Simply Nailogical, an amazing comedy "nail art" youtuber. Your sense of humor would play off each other amazingly. She could talk you through doing some nail art.
@Goat Child I think she has done at least one 'nail art' this year..maybe?
*Cristine
Omg yes. That would be absolutely hilarious. Throw in Beyyyn and we are golden
@@khoo7732 on Halo Taco 😂😂
Problem is they’re kinda like Canada-Australia apart😅
I really like your portrait, and the most abstract pieces honestly do give me a sense of emotion. I don't always get abstract art.. like the cat mask - I'm sorry Jazza, i didn't like Cat 2: The cattening
Astip id be okay with the Cattening if it didn’t look like blood dripping from the cats throat 🤢
@@katelillo1932 What?!! The dripping blood IS what makes it good.
I like it because it makes me think of masquerade balls and murder mystery stories like that. Not an actual cat
I have a complaint
It's too good I feel like it's harassing my art abilities
I have a question what happens if u mess up crapstract art?
Michelle Critser
Then you get something worse then crapstract
Simple....
I have a complaint too:
It's bad, but it's also good. It's too good to be bad and too bad to be good. It's so amazing, it sucks. I hate it so much that I wanna buy it and display it. My feeling are too *abstract (😉)* for this reality that I might as well sink into the abyss of this excitingly boring reality of lively inexistent full of normally strange oxymorons. Or can I can just call it crap and move on.
But what is it called when u mess up crapstract art?
@@michellecritser4327 crapstract crap
I like the warm colours and foil one. I can’t really explain why, but the range of textures, shapes and tones in that composition are just appealing to me
Me too!
Same! I imagined the circle at the top to be the sun in a desert, and the circles at the bottom to be a close up version of sand. I could also imagine them as flowers in a field. Either way it’s very pretty.
It's also one of my favorites, ironically enough, considering that it's basically the complete opposite of my most favorite, Cat # 1. I mostly see a sunrise or sunset.
When he first started drawing it I thought he was trolling and drawing Jake Paul
I like that one too!
as an abstract artist (though im trying to branch out), i love how abstract art is pure emotional expression for me. i suffer from major depressive disorder and painting really helped me get away from my darker emotions, and in turn, created some of my best, most raw work
That green piece is actually pretty good. I like the concept of abstract art as a design feature.
Try to follow a Bob Ross painting but in photoshop!
I tried that - but with Sketchbook by Autodesk, not Photoshop (well its still digital art but I felt like clearing that up)... I mean it sort of worked? Tho I'm really a begginer, so I think someone like Jazza would be 1000x more successful XD
no
follow a Bob Ross painting but in Ms Paint :)

i like the one with the gold background and white sun a lot. the colours are nice
My mum made an abstract painting when the black Saturday bushfires where happening and everything was terrifying, and it has always been my favourite painting she has ever done because when I look at it I can see the distress and the heat and the fear and also the beauty of her interpretation. When I moved out she gave it to me and it now hangs on my fiancé and I’s lounge room wall.
I would love to see this piece x
He “experimented” and started on a full on canvas 😂
Hey can you do a huge art project with tooth picks
Good one
Ooh, yeah, that sounds really cool!
Yeees
Why do you nail every challenge Jazza? You make it seem so easy.
Time. If you cash it in the video, he said it took him around six hours to be comfortable with doing a self portrait
... *flashback to soap challenge*
it's cuz of time and experience
Etch a Sketch

Abstract is such a large spectrum that I don't think it's fair to say "I do not like abstract art"
I don't like most abstract paintings, and I don't really like abstract sculptures, but at the same time I've seen some fucking amazing abstract art (Peter Draws for example)
It's hard to lump everything abstract into one category, even though it is all abstract...
People tend to be referring to incomprehensible images of random shapes, splats, and scribbles; in which case it is completely fair to say they don't like it. They could use more words to specify what they mean, but in the end we know exactly what they mean without doing that. So I disagree.
I'll just say that I have yet to see a piece of abstract art that I liked but I won't rule out the possibility that there might be some out there.
@@joan1609 That's totally fair, I understand what you mean.
I usually just say that I don't like abstract art, but at the end of the day there are some types of abstract art I like, just not the smeared paint kind.
What jazza did was actually kinda cool besides the cat mask lol but its because there is still clearly thought in his process and he admits to it. When someone shits on a canvas and plays twister in it, it goes on the fridge where all childish garbage belongs
I like abstract art but I hate the type which is a dot in the middle or a blank sheet mainly modern art
you should try candle making!!!
My favourite branch of abstract art is abstracted art, studying an object, scene or a person and emphasizing specific shapes or colours, it would be interesting to see you create abstract shapes from sculptures or paintings you've done before, like an in-between your normal style and abstract or even a series/progress from your normal style to abstract
I really liked the self portrait one I’m a real sucker for good shading
You explained abstract art better than my first art teacher in college. Thank you!!!!! I struggled with this for awhile because he made us focus on non-representational art and made our final a representational piece........ it took me two days to realize that I could use a figure of some sort!
Thanks again for explaining it so thoroughly. I really like watching your videos when I'm trying to relax.
My teacher made us do abstract without explaning its concept pretty much at all
This video would have been really useful then
@@emvuosku4219 Oh man that sucks!! At least you had the option to use a figure though.
I watch Jazza too when I'm trying to relax or get my mind off of something. I literally just clicked away from an ASMR video to watch this. It's so much more relaxing. I actually didn't really like abstract before but now I started to like it.
@@cabbagetruck123 Yeah. abstract art is one of those things that needs to be explained on a very certain way for a person to grasp the idea behind it. Jazza does it very nicely.
I also don't care for ASMR videos. The cooking o e are I'm fine with. It's the ones where people are eating or making sounds with their mouths that I don't get.
Jazza: "I've never tried this before, I know nothing about it!"
1hour later
*Jazza has created beautiful art work, system overload, self destruction starts 3..2....1..*
I never really understood abstract or modern art until I heard "4'33" by John Cage performed live. The piece is literally 4 minutes and 33 seconds of complete silence, with the performer(s) sitting there the entire time, but when you experience 2000 people sitting in a completely silent room for that long, it's amazing how powerful that amount of silence becomes.
I don’t know if you will see this but I think you should try a skillshare course on how to draw something but only listen to it. I think this would be interesting!
I agree, this would be super interesting to see Jazza do!!! This reminds me of the popular challenge going around in the makeup community where they have someone else pick a tutorial and they listen to only the audio and try to replicate the look. I think Jazza would do great with something like this.

Can you try paint pouring?
M H acrylic pour!
yes would like to see him do it
It's ridiculously hard to make a painting with paint pouring to look like some paint pouring or flowing
I think abstract might be my favorite type of medium. In high school my aunt tried to bring back my love for art, and she thinks that I work well with pastels, water colour, and abstract mediums but I stopped soon after starting because of my depression. It's still severely affecting me to this day, now in college, but your videos have helped me feel more motivated to get back to it. I hope I can get that willpower to do so soon but thank you for your work Jazza.
from ALL OF YOUR WORK I HAVE SEEN FROM YOU THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FREE AND ARTISTIC ARTWORK THAT YOU EVER DONE. GREAT JOB
Jazza will probably never read this but my teacher talks and looks exactly like Jazza!!!
I think...
o_o he is the teacher
Congrats he saw it
Maybe he is?????
Omg lucky
are we going to the same school
Jazza i think you should try paper sculpting like the things that expand when you bend them
Like this so jazza can see this please☺
jimmie doodge i hope u know, to make one full sculpture of that, takes months... like 5-8 months if he started now, we'd probably get a video of that by October, and i dont think he'd waste 5 months of his time when he could make other much more simpler videos, like those that last 1-3 days.
I loved the whole tone of this video and just watching jazza paint. I want to go to an exhibit and see all of these. I'm really impressed!
Jazza I love the self portrait! I’d buy a print or even a T-shirt with it on it ❤️
I personally loved the one with gold leaf and white spiral, and the bottom half being yellow, orange, red, and purple spots. It reminds me of a sunny field. And for me yellow represents hopefulness. I like the curves of it and it all seems to flow together. I also love the colour scheme, I like how the colours work together and I love the shine that the gold provided, for me it added to the piece and complimented all the other aspects of it.
I also feel like I should note, the grey and green piece that was an example of complimenting a room, I didn’t really like it, until it was in the room and it really did compliment the rest of the room and work well
Stupendous!
You just explained everything in my brain... better than my brain.👏👏👏
He has had previous experience...with Passpartout!
I love abstract art. I really liked the one created at 4:30, I also liked “cat”. The best one I think though was the self portrait. The mix between your style and the abstract feel really made the piece.
I love how by the end of the video, as you got more and more familiar with it, your paintings started to make sense
I love the idea of having abstract art in a home or office using the colours to help set a mood without being distracted by the image itself. Good work Jazza(as always) I like your self portrait the best 👍🏻
My favorite was the sunset? with the gold foil. You should try doing a video on making bubble art
Ha ha ha got you!!! That wasn't abstract because everyone who looks at that will see a sunset.
@@maggs131 but for everyone the setting will be different. personally I thought it was a sunrise on a field of flowers, yet my brother thought its was a sunset over the ocean
@@angiefirethunder2337 yeah I didn't see a sunset either, I saw a bunch of flowers with the sun rising over them
@@maggs131 Honestly I thought it was a huge pile of autumn leaves on a super sunny day. So yes, it's still very abstract as it can be interpreted in several different ways. I like my autumn day description of it personally as it reminds me of that time of year which has always made me feel joyful and warm. Although the Sunset description isn't wrong either, that's just how you saw it. Abstract art is complicated like that.
Same
The self portrait was so good I love it 😻
Absolutely loving the self-portrait!
I don’t know why I don’t like the cat mask one, but the other ones I really like. I guess it’s because I felt it turned out the laziest, while the other ones feel like they had more put into them. They’re still better than what I can do!
Abi ;)
help me for the love of shrek kermit t-posing
LMFAOOOOOOOOO
I can't be the only one that sort of understands the "Distance" one.
I *kinda * do, but not really, but yet I do. It's strange.
I think is that you can put yourself inside a part of the painting, and other person can see itself in other part and both will never be connected
Yes i totally feel that one, i feel like i even would have painted the word a similar way
I see it as a maze or something?
I see it as kinda like a video game maze where there are huge leaps and obstacles that the character has to take to reach the other side.... Distance... ok i dont quite know actually 😂
But i still kinda sorta get it. maybe.
I absolutely loooove the silver one with the lines its soooooo aesthetically plasing to me. And the self portrait is so badass
In my opinion, observing the process of Abstract art is more interesting than looking at the finished piece. It looks so relaxing.
Has Jazza ever actually 'failed' ????
Soap “pouring” lol

Using drone to create art video
His candy art video was hilarious
The drone video was... something😂

the self-portrait is just awesome!
i do love the heck out of it too!
hahaaha
I hate grammar qweens
Don’t *correct* my spelling
I literally came down to the comments to say the same thing....
I LOVE your self-portrait!!
i really love the one with the gold, yellows, oranges and red. I think it just looks amazing and i really love it
I love it but can I point out his final piece was the Jazza avatar, obnoxious but consistent.
I thought it was Jake Paul🤷🏽♀️😂😂
It's abstract it's not supposed to look like him
Ur dumb he said he was doing a self portrait
That is the message of the art.
i thought it looked like jake/logan paul
I swear to god, every single time i just hear *GET OUT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN*
I never understood what he says at every beginning x) Aah, the joy of not having English as native language ! x)
I hear” GOOD EYE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN”
He says good day
I hear yanny
Good’eh ladies and gentlemen
I LOVE the self portrait & the ones using Gold/SIlver leaf. They are GORGEOUS and i really enjoyed this video. Thank you for taking your time in making it ❤️
This is my favorite video you’ve made so far. So good! Not only was it educational but so interesting. I love seeing the different styles in people and seeing how a persons style can be transferred into a new medium or category. I personally love the piece inspired by distance, you’re dark painting using some orange and different palette knives, and the portrait. I also have to say that the sunny piece using gold paper and warm tone paint is amazing. It feels very much like autumn. After seeing you do this I’d love to see how you work with realism and maybe some oil paint.
HOW DO YOU ALWAYS BECOME SO GOOD AT THINGS?! EVEN IF YOU HAVE NEVER TRIED IT?!
Natural talent
But he did try it?
Because he has been practicing the fundamentals of art for years. It doesn't just come naturally.
GalaxyPawsYT I don’t get how this question comes up so many times no matter what he does the fundamentals are literally drilled into his very core at this point
Did you just read my mind?
Thing is...Art is abstract at it's core.
When you go to paint a tree or a house or a boat you usually start with a relatively abstract shape and then try to turn it into something comprehendable as the subject you are doing. Usually involving various abstract shapes that work together to create the illusion of a tree, or a house, or a boat...or at least with the intent.
From a design stand point, abstract can become even more important since it allows you to make something out of nothing and often times that something is something that is, in and of itself, uncomprehendable because it's something that doesn't exist. Or doesn't exist yet depending on what you are designing.
You could even take that a step farther and consider the nature of realism vs. representation. When you create art, no matter how "realistic" it is, it's still not real-you're still creating something representational. :) Jazza's painting of the abstract cat is just as real as a "photorealistic" painting of a cat, and just as much art.
@@QuetzalukiVery true. The real world as we see it is not what it appears to be as we only see our own perception of the world around us. And what we see is merely a set of abstract shapes and our brains have evolved to make sense of these shapes. Not much different than the pixels on the screen we are viewing right now.
...that’s deep
this is so calming, thank you, it helps a lot
Love the grey and green piece you did! Great work! Loved how open you were in exploring a new medium/technique.
Jazza: Today I'm gonna create abstract art and if I fail....
Me: Pauzes the video
Jazza...YOU NEVER FAIL!!!
His soap begs to differ
Australia Dingo I relate to this on a spiritual level
I still remember that mini etch a sketch.. XD
I honestly wasn’t feeling any of the pieces, but then the self portrait. Like damn I want one for my room.
That piece was a knock out.
I really adore the golden piece with the orange-red-purple dotts!
I absolutely love your self-portrait and a few of the others are wonderful. I love that you actually tried to do so well and you enjoyed it, as well. I'm an abstract artist, but I do a bit of realism as well. I love seeing you trying so many different things. It's always so cool to see what you can do.
I liked the one with the white swirl and red and orange bottom. Personally I really like all of them and I think you did a great job.
It made me think of sunset over fallen leaves on a fall evening
I guess my tastes still go toward something that makes a more coherent image...my eye was drawn more toward the cat (no. 1) and the self portrait...and even the more landscape one (the orange and red with the sun...i think). But understanding I guess is the start to appreciation!
Philbrush omg same
Jazzas term crapstract, is the best term for shitting on a canvas and everyone looking at it. I will never see a difference bentween a babies fingerpainting and billion dollar gallery garbage
I like the portrait one
I like the gold white swirl one the best ❤️
@@maggs131 neither can I. People get so upset when you say that though. They all says it about "everyone's different perspective" but...its still ugly and talentless
all of that is beautiful jazza!!!
I love abstract art...I normally do either really colorful or black and white abstract art, its very calming
I really liked "Cat", the self portrait, and the accent piece for your room.
I definitely more agree with the idea abstract art is useful for interior design, I just don't get the idea of random lines and squiggles representing emotions, though as you mentioned it's an umbrella term. I do like abstract art such as your self portrait or "Cat" that still look like something.
I’d say that abstract art is definitely a creativity thing. Creativity itself comes in so many shapes and sizes, and everyone is slightly different creatively. I myself understand the connection of abstract art and emotion and I’ve always had trouble drawing or painting objects/animals/people especially with confidence, while abstract doodles were therapeutic and carry meaning with me. It probably connects to my interest in poetry. And you know what? That’s okay! All types of art is awesome, including the art of people, animals, places, objects.. and the idea of being able to draw them well sounds amazing, I just don’t have the right creative mindset (I can do realistic drawings semi-okay if i have an hd reference that i’m copying but that’s different) and that’s perfectly fine! We’re all creative people and that itself is something to bond over.
I forgot I was watching you for a second that I spaced out. Guess your voice is calming then. I’ll rate it 8/10 socks.
I feel this way too
Oh ya! SOCKS!!!!!
Tbh. I'd listen to him as I do my own art, lol.
I love the self portrait the most, its so beautiful and oddly calming even though its made of warm colors more than cool colors
This actually looks great! I really like the interior design this you hung up on your wall. The gray and green really resonates with me, dunno why...
As someone who loves abstract art and values it quite highly I thought I'd throw in my two cents here. I am studying art in college and my painting teacher told us that abstract art is actually the most difficult to get "right". And I agree. The term abstraction itself goes into all art-making. In order to depict anything you are painting you have to begin to simplify it as you can not for example paint every single leaf on a tree. When people say abstract art what they generally mean is that something has been abstracted and simplified to the point of non recognizable forms. However just because this has happened it does not mean that the rules of form and composition are thrown out. The illusion of space can still be created and requires some skill to form. Balance, line, shape, texture they're all still important and if you cannot balance them within a piece that's when it looks "bad". Color theory is also another huge part of it and I feel where many people trip up. For the abstract art that I enjoy and gain great inspiration from they are not only emotional but also incredibly planned and filled with knowledge and skill. I really enjoyed you're pieces but for example the grey and green one you hung up- It is lovely but if you wanted more interest and depth I would've loved to see you add some cooler dark tones to the grey to help push it back in space and then mix in maybe some yellow into the green and layer it on top to pull it forward and create a greater play of tones within the piece. Glad to see you going out of your comfort zone! If you've reached the end of this rant thanks! I didn't plan for It to be so long!
As much as I would love to agree with you, things like that, overthinking a piece, and executing it "according to rules, and how it should be perceived" takes the joy out of creating art, art is emotion, a feeling. If you can't paint without that, a painting even abstract would mean nothing. :)
Elisa Metz very true. And I agree and I feel especially in the beginning it is good to learn but not get hung up on the "rules" (which I feel are more of a guide- one thing I love is when people can break those rules in a successful way, if everyone followed the rules we'd have no progression). I feel though that as you grow as an artist you Increase your skill and are able to combine that with the emotion- which is, I think, what I most admire. There's something so thrilling about seeing not only a piece filled with emotion and meaning but also a piece so fluidly and naturally balanced, with each color playing off of the other with perfect harmony- I feel that is the place that most artists desire to reach. Before going to art school I foolishly though that abstract was easy and tried it myself ending up with an unappealing mess that made me feel quite empty, but now I feel the things I have learned are not necessarily rules but just facts of art have made me more free and excited to create. I now know how to move the eye, how to make it pause and how to trick it into perceiving depth and motion etc and that's really fun. I hope that responded to your comment lol I realize I went off on a tangent again
@@Piggiemushroom It's cool, dw ;) - It's I guess how I feel at the moment, not being into art, because it was criticized most of the time, which kept me from creating art from heart, and trying to make it "perfect" so it would appeal to people (my parents in this case) so.. ye ^^
Elisa Metz I hope you continue to make art! I am actually studying to be an art therapist and as much as the technical nerdy side of art (the but I've been rambling about) excites me, what I am going to be doing in my practice is very much what you describe! Our ability to create- no matter in what form is so incredible and I feel all art has value no matter if it is highly informed by tons of rules or bursting with emotions. I hope I don't discourage anyone into thinking they have to know the ins and outs of what I was talking about to be an artist because as you said it is so much about your emotion too. This external depiction of internal processes. Keep creating and thanks for having this discussion with me!
I personally would have loved to see some purple in the gold foil picture cos purple and yellow are just my entire aesthetic lol 😁. But from what I can tell, abstract art is not about what other people think we should do, it is something that comes from your own imagination. I'd love to create one full of galaxy colours.. 😍
The one that Jazza made for the corner of his office space that had the green and gray represented pollution to me. The green represented nature and plants. The gray represented the pollution around the plants causing the plants to die and fade away.
CowCraft 72 Sometimes it be like that.
9:12 looks like Logan Paul 😂😂😂
Ry the Fry guy I am not the only person that saw that😂
Soooooooo who asked?
It represented just some colors to me, cause that's what they are
I love the self portrait you did! Actually I loved em all!
I really liked the “Distance” piece. (I guess that’s the name) Don’t know why but I resonate with it. And I also like your self-portrait, I mean not surprised I like portraits. I like the purple with the red looks nice together.
You should make art using gunpowder then burn it up
Nova Spadez or thermite
Nova Spadez then it would explode and kill someone
@@mememaster6928 gunpowder by itself isn't an explosive, it's only explosive when in a tightly enclosed space
That does exist but they put gunpowder on slabs of wood and burn it
Try painting something only using potatos as tools. You can cut/carve/etc. them, but it must be 100% potato. I would combine painting and printing to get some cool textures. Everybody has done a potato print picture in kindergarten, but I'm curious about what you can do with it.
I really like those! I like the gold leaf with white swirl and soft strokes! It's my favorite!
I like the distance one as it gives art deco vibes and I like that
I actually really didn't like cat 2, (mask) even before he said we should like it lol. the one with the colorful dots really stood out to me, it looked beautiful. It didn't look like anything, the color and shapes made me think of flowers and the sun and serenity.
That one really stood out to me too and I can see why you thought of flowers. Personally I saw a sun set over an ocean.
Personally I thought it was hierarchy and the dots are people looking up at a Religious figure, and the dots that are less drawn into the sun, the darker and more looked down on they are
shit I feel like a sage
@@markengamer5649 Deeper than the Pacific
@@markengamer5649 I thought a similar idea to you, I personally think the dots look kinda like peoples heads in a crowd if you look at it in a certain way.
Paper Ghost it is my favorite one.
I really like the cat1 and your self portrait
Those were my favorites too.
I am a sucker for abstract art and I LOVED the blue and green one in the beginning and the big silver and black one. I could easily hang them on my wall!
Jazza, these are amazing! Abstract art is my favourite style, and I am SO INTO how you ran with it!
He needs to carve Jello! Or at least those snack pack fake jellos. And then eat it...
JellY. As us Australians call it
@@slipperypaws9668 we call it that too. But we also say jello
Jelly is what we call it too, but Jello is a brand of jelly, usually spelled Jell-O
I really really want to see this happen omg
Omg yes
I love abstract art
ZHC BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Jk lol
wOw
She Zach hey
Oh no! It’s zhc!!!!!
I think abstract art is disrespectful to artists who put time and effort into their work, studying for years on end for them to do bullshit like throw paint on a canvas and get more recognition and money then artists who put time into their work. It may look appealing, and I would love hang some abstract art on my wall, but as an art piece it is not good whatsoever. This isn't very hard to do, for I have done things like this before, they are throwing stuff on the canvas randomly, saying that there is meaning behind what is their bullshit. I feel that people who paint realism aren't given enough credit anymore, people brush it off because it might look like another painting or be "boring", but in actuality the piece that you see before you has had days, maybe years, spent on it. (edit: I fixed a spelling mistake because I knew some jackass would say something about it)
The golden one with the yellow/orange/purple leaves is my absolute favorite! the self portrait at the end though had such a presence...
I do like your decorative charcoal and green piece! It fits the room well!
