Excellent video presentation! I posted on my Facebook and Twitter account.
Thanks !
An artist with his head screwed on right!
Pretty amazing, enjoyed this a lot and very informative on your process.
I thought u were going to do a mess than i saw i was wrong
this is a nice piece of artwork….kudos.
Abandoning it at 1:30…although I definitely want an airplane/hanger (or whatever the f* that is) apartment/studio.
deleting comments are we?
Wonderful stuff. Thanks for sharing..
If it is nothing planned, than you live for nothing. A painting must always have a concept, especially the abstract ones! Shame…!!!
awful
Garbage. Hired a crew to make a video about himself with shots of the video being made. Pretty nuts. Cool studio though.
Very cool art. Like when he says he scratches back into the paint to reveal the history. Unusual point of view.
Really nice to get inside the mind of an artist. Unlike the people who commented that he didn't have a plan, he obviously did as he kept sketching the positive/negative interactions and how best to bring them out with color. An artist need not necessarily have a 100% VISUAL plan when starting an art piece! I for one have partial vision when beginning a piece, but work on it and finish my work KINESTHETICALLY, which includes feeling and intuition.Everyone is different in our approach to creating! Thanks to William's hiring a crew to film his process, we can get a glimpse into the mind of this great artist! Excellent film!
Amazing how some one can have at their hands an amazing art studio and equipment and be able to turn out absolutely nothing but fucking shit
Little Marky Kelly; your eloquent and colorful colloquialisms and your astute use of the English language are a true testament to your superior intellect and good upbringing. It is apparent that your prepubescent-intellect far surpasses your understanding of all things artistic or your understanding of visual aesthetics. I thought about deleting your post, but I thought I should let remain as a testament to your understand, your kindness, and your knowledge of art. Nice that you appreciate the studio that I designed and build with my own two hands…and paid for through the sale of my artwork. Your remarks however about the aesthetes of the visual language that I am communicating in through my work, only serve to reveal your limited ability to comprehend the complexities and nuances of sophisticated art. It is my deepest regrets that you suffer from "little-man-syndrome" and are so jealous and angry at others that supersede your small mind, limited success, and your obvious immature understand of art. My art continues to be added to important private and museum collections around the world. I do not rely on little pats on my back from small minds like yours to validate my work. It is an embarrassment that your infantile brain fails to understand and recognize great work when it presents itself, and that you feel the juvenile need to lash out toward others as they succeed, where you so obviously fail.
Im done
that is my grandpa my name is aidynn rogers koszette barnhart
Amazing ?
3:34 what is being mixed with the paint?
Windsor Newton’s product called Liquin would be the same as what I am using here.
beautiful movie
and great insight into
your
process of painting.
I like the combination of abstract or formlesness out of which the form arises.
Great job and thanks for sharing William!

the film crew saw the place and was like, time to bust out the toys!
