Demystifying Art Styles
It's amazing!! And very insightful as well…It's just like discovering your own senses for the first time
Am I the only one seeing Impressionism put under the Realism name?
This was a great explanation of Art Styles Jill…
It is important to have an idea of what we have in front of us when we see a Painting to enjoy it even more.
I'd like to add too, as a "parenthesis", that I loved the fact that you presented a Roberto Matta to show what Surrealism was and still is. His work was far less flamboyant than others, but more profound… at least for me.
Thanks for your invaluable contribution on the appreciation and understanding of Art.
But where is Salvador Dali in surrealism
More than perfect explanation and examples of genres! Thank you so much!
I'm not really happy with this breakdown. For some of the styles it refers to methods of applying the pain, while others are defined by their subject. This seems rather inconsistent for me, since i'm really trying hard to differentiate between the styles based on a common variable.
Van Gogh and Gauguin are post-impressionists, not expressionists.
A criticism I hear of photorealistic painting is 'why endeavour to paint something that doesn't convey anything that a photograph doesn't convey?'. It's a fair argument and not easy to explain. I've never achieved photorealism myself but I can't say I haven't tried. The challenge is one reason but I find that I prefer to look at a perfect photorealistic painting than a photograph. Although it's sometimes almost impossible to tell the difference, I do get something from looking at photorealistic paintings.
A painting can make us see and appreciate things we take for granted when looking at the scene in real life (or, indeed, at a photograph). Things we see every day and only notice when somebody paints them. Superficially, it's wonder at the artist's skill. But, the more realistic, the harder we have to look for clues that it was painted by hand… and the harder we look, the more we see. That is the viewer's reward: to see.
A camera records whatever it's pointed at and even the photographer may not have noticed every detail that the camera has recorded. Not so with the painter. Everything the viewer sees has been observed, analysed and painstakingly reproduced by the artist. The joy of producing a realistic painting is the joy of seeing… and that joy is passed on to the viewer. It makes the mundane become magic.
That's my take on it anyway.
Hey Jill, I ama fan! Took one of your watercolor classes in Udemy. Awesome!
Thank you for speaking slowly and clearly. I'm showing this video in a class for English learners.
Wonderful videos on YOUTUBE and Great courses on UDEMY ! So happy to have discovered you! Thank you from Jeanne
Fantastic, great for explaining to my Grade 5 kids
Thank you. I didn't quite know where to start in exposing my son to art styles. He was asked to find his favourite art style and write why he likes it for his grade 7 art class. It's not like I can go into the city and take him to a museum during this pandemic!
The Mona Lisa is realism, no?
So could you tell me what type of art style I convey? I think it's surrealism but I'm not exactly sure. Here's where you can view my gallery. https://deviantart.com/decaxavaded

no se ingles
Amazing video, thanks a lot for making it.
I'm not an atrist, but I feel like abstract art is largely far too simply and easy to produce. To the point where I feel I could make a boatload of cool stuff after watching a 5 min video on you tube, or even without any instruction at all
this is amazing! thank you
A really informative video and also really relaxing with Jill's voice and the calm music. Thank you very much 🙂
I love the way you explain thing! you are the best!
What about comics, anime or cartoons? Would you call them art too? These days Im really confused on where to take my art career one part of me loves watercolor and a more impressionistic style even expresionist, another part of me loves animations with a more cartoony-anime style. I don't know where to focus, I find myself jumping from one style to another. I don't know if thats something bad. I was thinking to pursue a carreer on art for entertainment like concept art for games or animations which is mostly digital while keeping a more artististic style in traditional media as a hobby selling my paintings. In really really confused if this is a good idea or if I would be able to handle both at the same time, any advice? Sometimes I feel like Im splitting myself in two different persons.
Too many women of modern example vs. men of classic examples – All "Men's club" history and "Girl's club" contemporary-
This 8:23 minutes are far better than the hours of full access, tons of pouds and and unbeareble comptemt of matthew collings. This is modern art!
You misspelled the name Van Ruysdael wrong. What passes for expressionism is tachism.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍
Thanks. A good video.
Really cool video! thanks
