As someone who is studying art in school right now, I deeply appreciate your videos on the art world. I'm learning a lot in my studies, but am sometimes unsettled by art culture. There are many people like you who approach the whole thing with a more compassionate and humble perspective, but there are so many others that take a few classes on modernism and assume an almost empirical view of what's good and bad. Thanks for keeping my head in check when those jokers start passing their judgements
The problem is, that he doesn't talk about (fine) art, he talks about his personal taste. Often saying that things are pretty or cool or making him happy. That's not what fine art is about. Fine art isn't entertainment or aims to give people something pretty to look at. Design and illustration are about being pretty and cool. Fine art, on the other hand, was, beginning with the modern area, often hated, seen as the ugliest thing out there and not appreciated much outside the art world. Fine art is about context and artistic discourse and relations of the work to other works. So when he says "after the artist puts it out there, you can think it means what ever you want" that couldn't be further from the concept of fine art. It's ok if he thinks like that about his own works, but not about works of other artists that clearly had a very strong sense of what they put in their works. His approach is more Bob Ross kind of approach towards pretty art - which is also out there, but fine art is something different. Maybe he should have shown pretty art instead.
@@OlivioSarikas Indeed, and that is why a lot of people began to reject the idea of purist fine art in which the artist controls it's value and meaning. There is no confusion about what fine art is attempting to do, which is to standardize beauty as it has done for thousands of years OUTSIDE of the minds of the average viewer, and in the context of art movements, reactions to other movements, the artists intentions, etc.. I can't speak for peter, but the reason a large majority of artists are now REJECTING that idea in the face of post-postmodernism, (and lets not forget that these movements are subject to change based on these rejections, they are not static within the art world but are dictated by movements just as anything else) is simply because it's an outmoded concept. I encourage you to read more about it, as there is abundant literature out there on why the meaning of art can shift. It is by no means a sophomoric or naive idea to reject the artist's interpretation of a work, and to say that it's meaning is intrinsically tied to the artist themselves. In other words, that the feelings which the artist gets from their artwork is by nature UNREPLICATABLE in their viewers. I think you'll find that most working fine artists today encourage such behavior as a sign of a healthy fine art community. I think implying these ideas as being a set of some lower form of artistic philosophy akin to Bob Ross doesn't really represent how the majority of contemporary artists see things.
I'm thinking the same thing. I just recently found Peter and have been bingeing on his videos, but in a random order. It's interesting to go from long hair to short hair, back to long, then somewhere in between. Love his videos though. Almost in a Bob Ross kind of way.

Themselves some crazy curls Peter but you rock it in style as always. This was an epic upload. I’ve seen less professional and informative mini documentaries on mainstream TV. Quality work Dr Draws.
Peter, thanks so much for this video! I loved learning about female artists I hadn't heard of before. I think I agree with you that Agnes Martin is a very relatable artist, and I definitely agree that sometimes the content of a piece is more intriguing than the execution of it. Thanks so much for this awesome addition to your series!
Awesome, my favorite series. I'd have to agree with you on most of these. Portraits in particular are especially boring to me. I mean, I do appreciate the time, effort and skill they took to make them (I certainly can't make one), but they just aren't for me. I gravitate more towards the whimsical pieces as I appreciate the creativity of them more often than I do the skillfullness it took to make the art. Not that I can place any of those of any kind of hierarchical scale though.
It can sometimes help to understand the story behind a particular portrait. For example, American Gothic features his sister and dentist posing in front of a real home you can visit, as stand-ins for a Stern rural American vision. Most people know this, but what people don't know is that Wood previously almost exclusively painted portraits of his mother to the point where she forbad him do so again. His sister is meant to represent his mother, and his dentist his father (whom emotionally abused Wood). Interestingly, in the background of the portrait you can see potted plants that belonged to Wood's mother and appear in an earlier portrait of her. It seems like one of the most bland portraits ever, but the context and meaning of individual parts of the piece are what bring depth to it. Also the house is visitable, and is actually a super small one story building. And that concludes today's lecture.
actually, it's much easier to do whimsical creative nonsense than paint a good portrait. to be able to draw a portrait/ full figure one needs not only skill, but aslso pretty good knowledge of anatomy and physics (yes- optics! when rendering light and shade). don't get me wrong, i loooooooove drawing whimsical lines and shapes, but it's never as satisfying + frustrating as drawing a human figure- capturing the proportions, the light, the shape of the eyes, etc.... of course, it's always a matter of taste.
When you were looking at the ten feet tall abstract, made me want to just slam that painting into my vein like the Golden Arm. Considering I could not think of a way to crawl inside the painting. Love it. I love those blues as well! Some of my favorite blue colors. ❤️ 🎨 Annie
Papa draw is my favourite and this is also one of my favourite series. Every time someone peter uploads these, plant reviews, and cooking tutorials....my life is complete
Wow Peter you seemed to take this one somewhat seriously. I think very realistic painting was most useful before cameras. It's still a legitimate art for, just not as interesting as the more abstract forms. Abstract art really only came about after the invention of the camera, which is something to think about.
Not entirely accurate, look at hironemous Bosch. It may not be explicitly non representational like minimalism, but it was graphic and abstract paintings of what was at the time disturbing Catholic imagery. Look possibly at the garden of earthly delights, especially the panel of hell for some freaky animal hybrids and flying ears all over the place torturing new souls.
I think abstract art is also a nice way for people to express themselves but do not have full control over their skill. Hyperrealism demands way more skill than anything abstract.
@@Pituzer See that is the age old debate. Does it take more skill to replicate reality with intricate precision? Or, to make something formless truly powerful, beautiful, and interesting? Plenty of abstract artists started in realism, then progressed.
@@gregorysgarrison that's not a question of "what takes more skill", because the answer is obviously that they both require an entirely different type of skill. They can not directly be compared, but one thing is for sure: skill in painting realism can not be faked, and you can't accidentally paint a very good hyperrealistic painting.
We have such similar taste in artists. Agnes Martin paintings in museums always stop me and I get fixated by the spirit of these pieces. And your descriptions are just wonderful. Thank you.
its pretty cool to just listen to these art reviews, without looking at the picture and just build it in your head, while you talk about it, feels good to compare it with the actual piece of art.
I love O'Keeffe's paintings! And that Frida Kahlo painting-I like the face in the cloud...it took me a while to see it because I was so focused on the center of the painting, but it's cool that you mention yin-yang as that's everywhere in painting-cool. Love this video Peter!
Hi, Peter. I really enjoyed this video. You should incorporate this type of video into your UA-cam channel. I LOVE learning about different artist. I watch documentaries on various artist and their painting styles quite often. Anywho, keep up the excellent work your doing in both art and comedy. You're awesome.
I had to take a hiatus from UA-cam for a long while, so I haven't been able to watch your videos in almost a year! I'm so happy to be back watching your videos, Peter!
Honestly, I really think differently on "A Warning To Mother" (28:24) I really love the eery and sinister, or a bit sad, vibe I personally get from it. And in an odd way I can relate to said feeling. I also adore the the style! It was my favorite piece out of the others in this whole video.
14:37 Whenever I see transparent fabric in paintings I get super impressed .. it is quite an achievement to make it look SO realistic.. As well as fabric folds, hair .. skin .. yeah.. I am impressed with this painting ..
Another little-know fact about Agnes Martin was her intense love for for cats. She was purported to have owned at least 33 cats at one time and there is always some subtle hint of feline influence in her art work, which is especially evident in this particular piece of hers entitled Morning. Thank you for including this sublimely beautiful work of art in your presentation. LOVE HER WORK - TRULY GENIUS!
I completely agree with you 100%, either I like it or I don't like it! I draw all the time, and if someone doesn't like it, that's fine! I draw to get things out, or just let my mind wander, and sometimes, it runs off and doesn't come back for a few days, but I have a great piece to look at! :) Thank you for this video, I love your discussions on the side as well about art schools TELLING you to look a this or that, or that you have to appreciate it because of this or that... not my style either. Keep on drawing!
I like that even though you day to just agreed with you, you don't ever come off pretentious. You're very down-to-earth and open-minded! Plus your voice is very soothing 😌This was very interesting, and I'm good I found your videos!
Art is what others see in whatever is put onto a canvas, board, rock, wall and so on. If a person has done 100's or 1000's of works but have never been seen by others are they good, great or exceptional artists? Then on the other hand someone who produced 10 pieces and all of them were purchased or acquired by someone who was so enamored with the artist and promotes them to the highest level......is that artists work better than the unseen artist's work? We would never know and that is why art is truly only what it means to the eyes of the beholder. Style, technique, color, size, subject and so on have different effects on what is liked by every individual and that is the beginning of an artists rise or fall in the eyes of the world. All it really takes is either age, provenance, subject or how much it was sold for to bring an artist higher up the ladder of success. So with all that being said, this relates directly to me and a neighbor of mine. He is in his 70's and a survivor of cancer after serving in the Navy and sent to Viet Nam and exposed to agent orange and radiation. So his story is good and as an eternal bachelor he has not had a muse to affect his art. But he is an incredible artist and very few have seen his works and I suppose they won't be seen until his death and then the potential for greatness is better because he will be a new found master after his death. So I believe we should like what we like and dislike what we don't and should never be challenged because of our individual likes or dislikes. But no matter what I wrote above, I enjoy Peter and his wide and eclectic view and honesty in his art and way he expresses his thoughts on all artists. Honesty is always best!
Aaaah the art of woman........... To me, being a woman is like a daily art peace, Day in..... Day Out...... Thanks for this Peter. You speak so wel, you should go on tour with this!
I got the incredible opportunity to see several large collections of Renaissance and Baroque art in the flesh, and while all paintings were impressive I did feel that they all started to blend together. However, I saw Judith Slaying Holofernes(another piece by Artemisia Gentileschi) at one of the museums, and I do have to say that for me it stood out among all the other pieces! It's a very intimate experience to be so close to it, Artemisia was really good at filling the whole canvas with emotion. Sorry to sound like the kind of person who spends every summer in France. I was just excited when I recognized the artist and we're all just here to say stuff.
I wish that I had an art teacher like you. I think I would have been more open to creating my own art and not feel so pressured to fit myself into this or that category. Thanks, Peter :)
Great video, my second favorite of the series, #1 is still my top. Just a tiny bit disappointed the green screen didn't make it's appearance, but loved the transitions.
When I need a second opinion I watch your video twice.
This comment made me laugh out loud. Thanks.

Does he ever change his mind?

He is in his 70's and a survivor of cancer after serving in the Navy and sent to Viet Nam and exposed to agent orange and radiation. So his story is good and as an eternal bachelor he has not had a muse to affect his art. But he is an incredible artist and very few have seen his works and I suppose they won't be seen until his death and then the potential for greatness is better because he will be a new found master after his death. So I believe we should like what we like and dislike what we don't and should never be challenged because of our individual likes or dislikes. But no matter what I wrote above, I enjoy Peter and his wide and eclectic view and honesty in his art and way he expresses his thoughts on all artists. Honesty is always best!
Aaaah the art of woman........... To me, being a woman is like a daily art peace, Day in..... Day Out...... Thanks for this Peter. You speak so wel, you should go on tour with this!
“I like her... empty excel spreadsheets.” That made me chuckle.
‘Beating around the bush’ - had me giggling for awhile 🤣
Looking good Peter! Loving these videos.
Joan Mitchell's painting was really beautiful. It reminded me of an outlet glacier.
Absolutely love you channel Peter:)!
Your hair is art too Peter. The movie Frida (2002) is very cool and touching, I recommend it since it's one of my favourites.
This is so good! Been lurking around for quite a while now and PeterDraws really grew on me : - ) Keep up the good work man!
“Beating around the bush” hahah good one Peter.
Dude, I was thinking....I haven't seen that Peter Draws in a bit and then BAM you're in my suggestions! Wooooow
I got the incredible opportunity to see several large collections of Renaissance and Baroque art in the flesh, and while all paintings were impressive I did feel that they all started to blend together. However, I saw Judith Slaying Holofernes(another piece by Artemisia Gentileschi) at one of the museums, and I do have to say that for me it stood out among all the other pieces! It's a very intimate experience to be so close to it, Artemisia was really good at filling the whole canvas with emotion. Sorry to sound like the kind of person who spends every summer in France. I was just excited when I recognized the artist and we're all just here to say stuff.
I wish that I had an art teacher like you. I think I would have been more open to creating my own art and not feel so pressured to fit myself into this or that category. Thanks, Peter :)
Oh my gosh you have grown up so much since we started watching years ago!
Yoo, you're Canadian too!? That makes me happy to know you're a part of the Country! You've got a cool mind, and we need more people like ya!
Thanks man, I really enjoyed that. Nice to have art analysis stripped of its pretention.
Thank you for showing the female artists all in one episode. I like the last artist.
Great video, my second favorite of the series, #1 is still my top. Just a tiny bit disappointed the green screen didn't make it's appearance, but loved the transitions.
