My short summary for this video:
1) Work Hard: Don't try to work on getting a style, just work on being better and let your style come to you.
2) Follow The Thread: Take an idea and stick with it. If it doesn't work, then change it until you are satisfied with it. It's better to try something, than not try.
3) Enjoy Yourself: What's the point of doing art if you're not enjoying it? Do art because you want to personally.
4) It Is Important To Feel: Art is how you express yourself and it would be counter-productive for an artist to conceal emotions when doing art. Take what you feel and channel that into your work.
5) Don't Force Symbols: Art first, symbolism second. Let your feelings guide your art and let the art speak for itself, symbolically.
awesome summary!
I find that when true artists speak truly...their advice crosses over all the other arts and over life itself
You never find your style; it finds you.
love it, just gotta make some noise so it can locate you! S.O.
Finally, some advice that doesn’t sound pretentious
DaShon Aubrey thanks for your comment, I agree Brian is very down to earth and welcoming to listen to. Steve TTF
I noticed that he has a very staggered way of speaking and starts a sentence and bombs it midway through. It’s comforting to know that I’m not the only one who does that.
I do that too.What causes that?

I have a LOT of respect for anyone who has the drive to try to make an honest living off of their Art...
Best advice in a long time
And in the perfect moment!
Specially the first and the last.
Really appreciate your words
Thank you
Very true,I've been painting for so long I almost gave up,I really wanted to establish my style, finally just this year it began to emerge and I'm very happy about it. Everything he said I can relate with.
"The Thread" explained: Its true, you need to follow the thread. As you draw, paint, or create, you will slightly notice a pattern emerge through your work. This pattern is what comes out of you naturally. It's when you automatically follow the path of least resistance, your authentic path. As you continue down this path you find out more and more about yourself and you make permanent any new discoveries along the way, the things that work well for you. Following the thread leads to the evolution of your craft.
Hey Steve, I come back to this video so many times. I watched it when it first came out and I’m watching it again today. Thank you for making this video.
Its kind of cool to see that ALL great modern and contemporary art lately is going back to representational instead of purely abstract or expressionistic. Not that those are bad but 70 years of just the same regurgitated squares and rectangles and spalshes of random paint. It was a little telling that the figure and the real world was completely kept out of all establishment art. Nice to see the establishment cave and realize young people want a little more of the real material world in their art.
I got it, your zoom camera works. good for you.
HaHa I do love a mess zoomy video, thanks for watching. SO
Yes it was a little jarring, distracts from the subject and artist imo. But still I learned a lot.
Not the most succinct advice I've ever been given but very much appreciated. :) I find your paintings very pleasing. They seem personal to you but not so much as to make me feel outside of them. Thank you!
How and what would you paint if there was no one else on earth to see what you produce?
Amazing Artist and Amazing Human beeing. Thank You for sharing!
Very good advice - I especially vibrate with 1) work a lot 2 ) follow your intuition and heart = do what matters to you 3) dont be afraid - be present with the creative processe - be open -
A great lesson at the perfect time. Just last night I made a list of possible symbols for my work that would likely 'fit' & I felt like I had just ruined my art & my excitement totally deflated. This was such a relieving idea to hear- to let your symbols emerge. I've experienced this. I've come up with awesome, even fun, hysterical symbols that feel right, to a message & contemporary, while in the middle of developing a painting, as I struggled through it. That was a much superior route & authentic, & great to see it emerge. So I can see this. Some great things to think about- true expression; what are we giving to humanity?

Author Bridget Chase but that's True!!!!)
Great advice....it made me realize it will be OK to paint another floral abstraction!
Brilliant advice thank you x
Love this. Thank you for some sound advice. Enjoy your work very much.
I was really drawn to Brian's paintings in the background; they are so full of life and enjoyment. Everything he said made a whole lot of sense. I'm older and can tell there is wisdom in what he has to say.
HI Clarice, Thanks for the comment. I find his to be very soothing and they make me feel good. Be sure to check the film called "Joe and Brian" I think you will love that too.
Cheers,
Steve
@@thetalkingfly I will, Steve. Thanks. :)
I needed this advice thanks a lot!
Thank you for your wisdom and sharing it !
This is great. Thanks for the tips.
Fantastic advice! I will save this to go back to once in awhile
thanks for a great video. I happen to agree with Brian on every point he makes and I shared this video with my students to reinforce what I've been telling them.
Very cool - glad you liked it - Brian is a great artist and a wonderful soul!
I'm impressed with this work.

this was a good reminder. thank you
UA-cam just showed this to me. Great wisdom from Brian.
Hi George, Love his words and his art even more! A Utah treasure. Cheers, SO, TTF
Have fun...lots of small expt and keep a logbook...brainstorm with materials, methods, concepts, percepts, thoughts, feelings...dont separate these...look at the work of 10,000 other artists and see that you are NOT brilliant__everything is a variation of a theme__get over that, then continue ploughing in...and...you WILL find something that feels good, looks good, thinks good...TO YOU...follow that...YOU CAN'T BE WRONG when you cook up your own art stew__over time. cheers all and keep on keeping on, now...pull your finger out.

Excellent excellent advice
Love me some BK. Great stuff. Thanks.
Ethan Vincent ev bk is good- cheers so
You really are great. I've been struggling with finding my own style and dealers are wanting a consistent brand. Thanks for advice.
Julie Tugwell so now you can stop struggling and make hundreds of paintings. Your style will emerge. It cannot be invented of discovered by any other means.
Be careful the dealers do not discourage innovation and evolution as they may want more and more of the same if it sells.
This is great advice!
Great advice beautiful art
Great advice
I really like this! Thank you for sharing.
Chluffles thanks for watching chliffles (great name) and thanks for your comment. Steve TTF
HI Brian! (Please pass this on, Steve!) Im still impacted by the "Nativity Scene" I came to your studio and saw. I live full-time in Kenya now, painting like crazy...If you and your family ever find your self in Kenya, please look us up! (facebook) Thanks for the advice...Oh and this video just popped up, unprompted on my youtube page...take care...
Work hard and commit to the truth of who you are and what you feel. the art will shine thru the noise.
New subscriber - So glad I found you. Great words of wisdom 🙏 Hello from The Isle of Wight 👩🎨
Hi Amanda- Thanks for the nice comment!
We really can’t worry about money. Living on almost none definitely further exercises ones creativity, let me tell you, and that can only make you a better artist.
Great advice.
THANK YOU❤
Su Nchi haha yes thank you too!
I love that last point about allowing the symbolism to emerge themselves. I completely agree.

Great vid
Incredibly sound advice
I agree- thanks for you comment Melissa. Cheers, SO
💕💜beautiful
Thanks Friend!
Good stuff 👍
Good advice
That was very helpful my friend👍
Intuitivmedia Glad you liked it. Brian is great.
thanx
This all goes with what my teachers shared with me in school, all my experience in the decades afterwards, and with what I try to teach my students now. It is painful to watch students try to fit into a style that doesn't suit them, or try to make a career from art before they have developed their skills and artistic voice. I tried to force a message and symbols into my work for a grant I wanted to apply for, and they result made me feel gross and I don't like the resulting work. It did, however help me break out of my former routine and ultimately helped me to paint more freely.
I really, really enjoyed this. Is Brian now in a different studio space from the "Brian and Joe" film?
Andy Ross yeah andy he has 2 studios this one is in Provo, Utah.
🙏🙏👌
thx Friend!
I think back in the cave man days we would have been the ones that were drawing on the wall Thank you Alex
It looks easy to draw but cool style
Yes we'll said invent finding working hard on your work keep going keep going I think it can happen when a mistake has been made , well said Brian difficult depression

fatous matous thanks man! hope there will be more to come!

Advice for Camera men: "Hold steady!"
nah, experimenting with a wiggly camera, fun to shoot for me.
I actually quite like it. It's fun. "Steady" stuff gets boring sometimes. 🤷🏾♀️
Hello steve olpin...I am from India..I am also a creative person..I really liked your ideas..I want to ask you something about painting business...Can you reply on this?..I just want your suggestion..
dragon gavade hi dragon - sorry I can not be much help on Painting, I make a living as a filmmaking don’t know much about painting- best of luck, steve
I was hoping thiswas not stupid. It wasn't actually. It was pretty sharp.
Rout!He propably meant route.
He should do his own UA-cam vids
He looks like Ryan Reynolds
Style (the most misunderstood term in art) is really personality. If you try to copy someone else it isn't genuine and comes off as forced and fake.
My favorite is the pregnant Wynona Ryder. 😉
man
his wife or partner is so lucky...
you didn’t completely invent that style... you took inspiration from someone else and put your own touch to it. many painters have painted like you before your time. Amazing advice nonetheless....
I like the advice but I couldn’t really watch the video because the camera motion made me sick
angie wakamatsu maybe you can listen if the filmmaking is so troubling, Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Steve
thetalkingfly yes I had to just listen and not watch. I’m a fan of the artist I’ve seen some of his works here in Utah. I love getting advice from established artists and unfortunately I’m very sensitive to camera motion.
He looked like brother of Jordan Peterson...
Enough about threads
i like his paintings very much but he is kind of hard to listen too.
What do you mean by hard to listen to? Like difficult to understand?
He looks like Ian from Smosh, if he aged beautifully.
Wtf? I'm going to stop painting
