    Great video, particularly understanding that the essence of impressionism is suggestion. I'd add that impressionism came into its own when painters like Monet started painting outdoors, where you find subjects (like dense foliage and water) that can't be rendered convincingly in any other way.

    For me, what I really am drawn to is "where does the light take my eyes". The painting of the ladies in white gowns walking on the beach bathed in the focused light just made my heart skip a beat. That is what I strive for. Until now, I had not been able to explain it. Thank you.

    I definitely think you can define Impressionism. After some historical research I did it myself. They are a group of artist that formed out of several reasons, both philosophical and political. On the philosophical side, the artist of the day was beginning to see mechanical devices begin to aid artist, like the camera obscura, and the first hints of photography were emerging. Through these things artists saw light in a new way, and began to paint light as a subject, seeing the forms as light defined them into shape, color and not as stylized ideas of the form, or overtly defined representations of the forms, and not only that, but the subject matter of these artist began to change as well, and the schools of the time rejected these trends to paint in this manner, shunned the ideas. This leads us to the political part of Impressionist, who had to go so far as to rent their own spaces to sell their work as other galleries' would not hang their work, and formed a sort of "guild" to survive ostracization. This lead to further distancing themselves from the established tropes of the day, to paint traditional subject, still life's and references. They painted the mundane, the simple, and the poor most of all, elevating common life before that of the aristocracy. This came as a shock to many of the day. With all the industrial revolution brought into modern life at that time, one was the processing of paint in a larger capacity than ever before, allowing more artist to play with larger amounts of pigment than any previously had to work with. We see this manifest in Monet and Renoir, suggestive details hinted at through the texture and not the painted detail of a stroke. When you look at an Impressionist, you will see some interpretation of light, shapes and suggested details, not a depiction of the idea for which light is hitting. The Impressionists strove to paint life, no matter the form, as light defined it, not the brain. This was the major leap forward, and it came at just the right time in history.

    Great video... yet again! I always thought Velazquez (sorry, can't do accents on this keyboard) was the grandfather of Impressionism. And I also think that the variations of Impressionism all work because they treat light (and, therefore, colour and tone) in a realistic fashion. As such, they are easily relatable to everyone. What a wonderful thing that you can have so many variations, yet they all work because of the same core truth.

    There are far better hyper realism then what you showed here. It is really like photo realistic.
    But... What's the point of doing that if we already have photographs?.
    Sometimes the point it is show skills and patience. And there are artist doing photo realism without a reference, that's impressive, but you can't deduce that by just watching the painting.
    I prefer something more loose and impressionistic, or colorful...more fun.
    That's my humble opinion.
    Great video as always, thank you.

      he does a wet into wet style of painting. you can use acrylics but its not wet into wet - as it dries faster but you can get an acrylic paint retarder that slows the drying time. mark's paints use no solvents - order a tube and play with it to see for yourself

    Has Mark done any videos on pallet knife painting and what style of painting is pallet knife painting? is it abstract ? is it impressionist? etc. I would love to hear his point of view. I have seen some knife paintings that have left me breathless. They have always been around, but I just never paid much attention. Mark always refers to the importance of values in a painting. I see this in great pallet knife work. I'm going to have to give it a try.
    Please keep up the great videos.

      I would say palette knife is impressionist or abstract. but-- some people use a pallet knife and can be pretty tight and more realistic. I do not recall any pallet knife videos by mark. HIs paint is not conducive for that type of work

  • @cindyoverall8139

    I so wish that art history could be rewritten. To this day, Janson and K. Clarke are still regarded as the authorities. They chose mainly European men from the 1200s until 1900 with the American abstract painters.
    The label, Impressionism came from the French Salon who daubed them as making only impressions of scenes which is why they were not accepted there.
    Personally, which doesn’t really matter, I find the Impressionists to be weak and insipid feather painters. Renoir, being the worst.
    There were so many greater schools of painters that are ignored by history.
    French Naturalism, The Barbizon, The American Tonalists, The English Newlyn School, The Dutch Hague School, the Glasgow Boys, and the really extremely great painters of Russia.
    Anton Mauve had the unfortunate period with his wife’s cousin, V Van Gogh whom he taught. Mauve finally evicted him for sanity reasons. Mauve was much the finer painter.
    George Inness and Isaak Levitan were painting at the same time continents apart. They both were geniuses in their abilities in painting their surroundings.
    To this day, unfortunately if you ask John Doe about artists, he will probably cite Van Gogh and Monet, ad nauseum.
    We, as artists need to look so much further at the great gifts from history’s truly heartened painters.
    My whole point being is that it would be refreshing to introduce other painters than the usual and the banal.

    Impressionism always seems at first glance the artist is suffering from Hyperopia and is painting what he is really seeing, but it does little to help the observer understand the artist's intent, the observer has to feel the effect emotionally to be able to perceive the artist's purpose. Van Gogh's paintings are good examples of this response.
