people commenting here are saying he overcomplicate simple things, but as an artist, i think he is a genius. he explains the art through geometry that no one like you (simple minded and settle for lesser things) would appreciate. it improves your visualization and perspective on an object.

Absolutely. I am sitting here stunned, as a self taught art-er (not really an artist). Eating up his videos but slowly, so they actually land. It's like a horizon suddenly opening with light. His teaching itself is a craft, and what he is offering is the actual technical details of how to create .. literally anything. It almost brought a tear to my eye, the moment I comprehended what a master this man is, and what I can learn from him.

I’m a contemporary art school student. None of my tutors can draw or paint, but they know absolutely all modern and contemporary artists that have ever existed and always tell us: look this artist up, look that artist up. That’s how we are taught. This video is not about overcomplicating simple things, it teaches you how to see things as an artist, I would give my left pinkie to have a teacher like that who can explain how to analyze, how to break down, how to approach. This is fundamental.

It was a bit high level approach.

It's not about drawing a bottle. It's about measuring and analysis. When you want to do a piece of art, you don't use ALL the guidelines unless you're a hell of a perfectionist. You just use a few or non at all. But because you know how to do deep analysis, you visualise those relationships in your mind and measure with your eyes, Internalizing it. It becomes second nature. It's a method of training, not a guide to make cute drawings. The art piece should be the organic result of all that mechanical training.

If you’re coming into this having no clue what he’s talking about then it definitely will confuse you and seem overwhelming. But the jokes and cracks in this thread are annoying. Keep it real. You haven’t taken many art classes or studied far into techniques. So you don’t understand. That’s fine. Many amazing and talented creative artists that learned their techniques on their own. But this lesson is useful. In art, in drawing, a useful trick is finding shapes in the objects you’re studying to draw. Sometimes people separate the object with circles/ovals that complete the object entirely. Those diagrams he used on the board are real diagrams used for the exact lesson he’s explaining. I can’t even attempt to go into it. I’ll confuse you more than he ever could. But if you’re here then you clearly have an interest in the lessons behind drawing. Why not find a more beginner friendly introduction to this chapter? It truly is amazing at helping you see objects/people in a different light when it comes to drawing.

I’m a fan of this man and my comment was in response to all the negativity on this videos commentary thread criticizing him for “over explaining” and being a “bad teacher”. My point was to let everyone insulting his skills know that they’re obviously ignorant to art in general as this lesson he’s conducting is a common one and anyone who’s taken an art class should know it, so those complaining are complaining because they’re completely clueless. It would be like watching a video on trigonometry and complaining because the teacher doesn’t make sense meanwhile the people complaining can’t even multiply. I hope you actually understand my comment this time as I’m not a fan of having to explain myself to some rude and ignorant person who calls me a bitch for absolutely no reason and doesn’t bother actually reading my comment, but instead jumps at the chance to insult me.
