  • Paul Klee is one of my favorite artists because of his playful looking art. This time I show you a number of his drawing and paintings that are interesting to paint yourself. The art element line doesn’t look that difficult but it can be used in different ways. I show you a number of ways and techniques to make your own Paul Klee style inspired paintings in this Paul Klee art lesson.

    I got into art as a way of translating my thinking into something visual, so I could actually *see* what my ideas were supposed to be, express myself better to other people, and also feel productive in a certain way.
    Well, a primal need of perfecting my art started to take over my head as the years have passed since my childhood. Studying art is great, I like it, I love to see my skills getting better and better with the passing of time. In the other hand, though, this frustrates me and makes me feel insatisfied, empty, incomplete in a certain way.
    Playful art is what saves me from this feelings. I doodle a lot, and often play with different artstyles that aren't really my kind of art. It makes me happy, and takes me out of the "draw > paint > feel insatisfied > destroy your art" cycle.
    Most of the people around me have a very closed mindset about what they consider art. For them, when art stops being realistic and becomes cartoony, geometrical, abstract and playful, it is just something made without any effort, and something even a child could do. Being playful in art when you have such a perfectionist workflow actually takes a LOT of effort. I think the point of playful art is freeing yourself from a serious, perfectionist and mature mindset, and letting yourself have lots of fun and stretching the legs of your bottled creativity!
    Been binging your older videos this weekend, Albert! Really impressive how you managed to keep such great content quality since years ago! I'm very glad I've found your channel. I've been looking for channels like yours for a good while. I think I should take a look at pottery channels too.

      Thanks Tekkno Pidgeon for your longread comment. I know exactly what you mean and know of quite a number who struggle like you, among the viewers here as well. Also painters who don't resonate with their peers on the 'playful' aspect, or abstract in general. It's a misunderstanding or narrow minded view that art is only art when realistic. It requires a playful or flexible mind to appreciate abstract for what it is. But I guess our current society could use some more flexible minds as well.
      I'm glad you found my channel, feel welcome to hang out here.

      Hi Kathe, thanks. I mainly work with acrylics, I'm used to them and not very familiar with watercolor. Although I love the way you can work with it. I guess you can do most of what I do also with watercolor or pencils. At the moment I have an open invitation to paint: ua-cam.com/video/joV5r4KG0GM/v-deo.html. This can be done very well with your art supplies and in any size that fits for you. I already have 1 or 2 watercolor works received and also 1 with pencils. I can't teach you watercolor techniques but creatively I guess you can find a lot to keep you busy. The coming video is about drawing but in a different way. What a coincidence. 😁 Happy (watercolor) painting, Albert
