Omg omg! I remember in my UCF drawing classes used string and plumb lines, conte and charcoal to draw and measure! Very helpful! I only recently found out that the string/ plumb line method was an old method.

GREAT VIDEO! I always watch your videos as soon as I get the notification, you are skilled, funny, and great at getting information and tips across. I've learned many neat things from your videos, and I really enjoy learning more about the history of art and its masters. The way that you can bring forward alternate mindsets in order to humanize the greats, or inspire and motivate the upcoming is amazing. I really do love your work!

what book is referenced at 7:09?

Legendary filming ✅ Legendary artists ✅ Legendary editing✅ Legendary thumbnail ✅

I love Sargent and Draw Rings.

Too cringe for me but good luck spreading facts 🫶

What is the advantage of a plumb line versus a ruler?

that thumbnail had no reason to go that hard

If anything, the plumb-line gives you a fun toy to play with. I just hit myself in the hex-nuts with it!

when im doing gesture drawing i imagine them on a stripper pole to balance the poses haha

I need one of these artist's storage carts. Merry Christmas Jake! I never got to use the plumb line in school but we did learn the academic method in college as a study in Anatomical Life Drawing at FIT from 2007-2011 using a copy of the Charles Bargue drawing course book from the 19th century and the sight and see method that Sargent and the rest of the artist used to draw and paint from life.

Love your vids dude 😎 I'm tryin to start a painting project and this helped a lot

That white unicorn with blue hairs from a movie called The last unicorn 1982

Anyone else stuck on how he says “draw-er-ing”? 😅

You think a plumb line is useful? Then remember to hold your hat when you discover THE GRID. (Durer, etc)

11:26 Things not to do in a room with no ventilation. YA-

The plumb-line, the key to assessing the weight of a subject, and knowing the absolute verticals of a subject.

Love your channel! ❤ what was your process for learning the techniques youve acquired? Id love to get started but I dont know where to go first or how I could create a regimen for myself to study these skills bc there are so many options. Its overwhelming 😭

That Morrowin Soundtrack.

as parisian I wonder where it all went down in term of art education here. It is surprisingly hard to find any formal art education that could ressemble the old beaux-arts way of teaching

O' Plumb line, My Plumb line! You who leveled Rome's bridges The line that built the Tomb of Ramses And now will help us To git gud.

Absolutely hypnotic video. Subbed for more art history stuff.

Great video. Cool sponsor to

I had to sit through a lot of bullshit before you got to the point (5min) but that is the best drawing advice since my granny taught me to use a stick to transfer what I see to the page.

Have you given up on the dark fantasy painting?

I absolutely love how your newer videos are edited to be more like a documentary I love watching these

Morrowing, Castlevania, Zelda OoT... very nice subtle audio references!

Your Meeden cart looks more like cherry than walnut in the video. Did Meeden label it as walnut?

my art class was never this entertained

Great video, what paper are you doing your oil sketch on?

I’ve been reading Harold Speed’s painting book lately, and he talks a lot in it about how you should interpret the form instead of being a photographic painter. Such an important and difficult lesson to learn. Also the talk of how those guys were so good reminded me of the latest Defunctland video about animatronics, “You will never do anything better than an 18th-century monk when you have a TV in your house.”

I studied art in college, even got a Bachelors in Studio Art. When I was determining going to art school as a Highschool student I imagined that art colleges would have been like the French academies I saw in the history books, in my experience it wasn’t. Your average art student is fed post modernism and taught to scoff at academic drawing and painting in pursuit of “their creative voice”. It didn’t pay off for my classmates and it didn’t pay off for me; I’m a janitor.

de ahora en adelante me llevare un hilo amarrado a un peso para pintar del natural. Gracias por compartirnos tus investigaciones sobre los grandes maestros!

Youu got me into art as a hobby

drarring

Jake going from a random snaplock bag to a full on portable deluxe painters drawer might be the greatest glow up of 2024 🥹💀

JACK HOLD ON im gonna get a job and give you all my money as a symbol of my gratitude for you great videos and art advice.

Castlevania SOTN OST spotted ⚠️⚠️

:3

Book names you mentioned in this video?

As a 3d animator its funny to see your process mirrors my process in some ways. If you lose yourself in the details without having a strong foundation you end up having a "finished" work that feels off. The details are distracting and prevent you from seeing the issues with the foundation. Sometimes the only way to learn from it is to start over. In a way it also mirrors what I have learned from competitive games like overwatch. Every loss is a chance to learn something, as long as you live there will always be a chance to improve. There are no mistakes, only happy accidents. But if you don't learn from those happy accidents, you are going to make the some happy accidents over and over again. That might make you unhappy.

That cart is over $400 my gosh that is pretty high, you can get something like this at IKEA or Hobby Lobby for around $60 then grab a piece of cheap furniture off marketplace with glass top and use that.

Naturally talented people is not nonsense and school is absolutely not required to be a great painter.

Almost as good as John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt, they are often confused.

Colour theory video please. Why are people making it so complicated? It's just paint. Mix some sh....t together and see what happens. Add red, blue, yellow, white, or black depending on how it looks and what one needs. Maybe try thinking of black and white as colours instead of value adjustments.
