    You broke my favorite saying.
    "Those who can do, those who can't teach." You obviously do it *all* very well. I never had someone explain practical perspective this clearly.

    This is actually kind of genius! I never thought about it this way! :D I've also never seen anyone describe it this way. This really helps you understand how big to make your object! Definitely going to check out the longer version.

    My God...this is the landscape perspective lesson I've been needing for forever...and ots so nice to FINALLY have someone actually explain how to properly space things that shrink into the vanishing point. I can't say how much I appreciate this. Thank you SO much!!!

    Joe I've clicked on one of your videos in my endeavors to learn the tricks and trades of acrylic painting and I've been hooked ever since! I'm not even sure if you're even using acrylic paint but I'm so pleased to watch and listen to you as you create and explain. My wife isn't even an artist but she has expressed appreciation for your humble and sincere spirit which is equal to or not more beautiful than the paintings you create. I don't mean to weird you out but for me art becomes more engrossing when the creator is as inviting as the work created plus it's pretty dope you give glory to God in your comments. I'm truly fan and I do hope and pray you continue painting and sharing.

    Joe, I find your videos a pleasure to watch visually but I have learned a ton that I did not learn in two years at a graphic arts school. Thanks for sharing all this amazing content with us.

    Though I have taken courses in perspective drawing I have been struggling with this concept for so long in my paintings. This makes things so much clearer. So glad you are here.

    I had noticed this rule in a couple images in perspective, but I didn't realized it could be applied to everything. Great video

    You are SO great! This was so informative and a big reason I couldn't transpose my pencil sketches into a painted picture. It just kind of came naturally in a sketch, but I didn't know why or what I was doing so I couldn't work it out in a painting. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I think everyone here loves you....I hope you feel it! Onto the next video. I just want to gobble them up so I don't forget anything. Instead, I'm taking notes. ;-)

    wow Joe... this video is Amazing! the way You analyze everything makes me so much more comfortable in my journey painting. I am (sometimes paralyzingly) left-brained which for me at least, does not bode well for creativity, but,.. this kind of thought process helps to at least mask that deficiency.. thank You again! btw.. what school did You go to? or does pretty much any art school teach this kind of thought process?

    • @-zephyressence-2018
      @-zephyressence-2018 6 років тому +2

      Mary S Maybe it just has to do with how a person learns and takes in information...everyone has a different way of interpreting things and lessons. For me this was a revolutionary video on perspective that helped a lot. Really helped me understand how to distance things better. But then again there are some other teachers/videos I don't understand as well, yet other people say things like "this is exactly what I've been looking for, so helpful!" Even though it doesn't make sense to me at all because again, lessons will be viewed and understood differently based on how a person learns and digests information. You could just need a different teaching style on perspective.
