Thank you, while making the video I learned so much. I knew of the Seven, but I have a new appreciation for the movement. I truly enjoy doing the research and studying the art. If you have any other ideas please share. Hope you found some new information too.
@@sundaypainters I was going to say, I learned some new facts from this video! You did a great job. Off the top of my head; Georgia O'Keeffe or Emily Carr, two women painters who had interesting lives. A Salvador Dali video could be fascinating as well. Thanks again!
Wow, Thanks, I do have a Dali and O'keeffe when you click on the video link just below the top banner. I'll look into Emily Carr. Thanks for the suggestions.
Really nice video, thanks for making. I like Harris best, always found “abstract landscape “ quintessentially 20th century Canadian. I wonder whether you know alex janvier? An amazing indigenous artist here, still going in his 80’s. He was associated with the “native Group of Seven.”
Hey Man! I am back and I cant believe its been over a year since you made this video! I've been painting so much and travelling to several different locations around the country. Hope you are doing well. Thanks and take care
Time does fly. You would have fit in with the Seven. I was looking at your work, but my absolute favorite is Alberta Sunrise. I think it the movement of tone. Like to see some video of your thought process and your work. You are very good my friend.
Love your videos! How about John Henry Twatchman. He was an American painter and, I think, part of a "group of ten "(?) One of my favorite paintings is his bridge painting... Would love to hear your thoughts on him and his group of painters...
I can do like Twachtman and can make a video this week. I think he made a couple of versions of the "White Bridge" or Little Bridge. Is that the painting you're thinking about? Don't forget the little bell so you know when I post this Jane. Thank you for the kind comment.
While Tom Thomson informed the Group of 7 and painted with them. he died before the G of 7 was formed. Had that not happened, he most certainly would have been a member.
Never liked their work. It's just mediocre in comparison to other schools of landscape art. It's just lifted from the post impressionists of Europe, nothing distinctively Canadian about it. It's all based on European trends that were already 20-30 years in the past. William Bradford's arctic paintings are superior in every way compared with all of these.
Like other art its not for everyone but you'll need to explain yourself. If it was mediocre, why would generations of artists look to emulate the go7 and their art? If you ever have the chance to travel to Ontario or any remote place in Canada you'll see the rugged wilderness they were painting. Maybe then it will click for you. If you do already live in Canada then please have a beer for me and sorry about the trouble.
Recently fell in love with this group after being awed by their work in Ottawa, thanks for the informative video 🙏🙏

Yes, great information for the Sunday painters. Thanks for the comment.
Auto-generated voice narration = is what you are saying have any credibility?

Tom wasn’t in the group but influenced them.
