    • @billrazor6591
      @billrazor6591 8 месяцев назад +24

      @@Birdhouseart That's the same thing. Studying an artist is "copying to learn". The important part is to learn, and not just copy, of course 🙂
      When you do an artist study, you try to copy their process, make an art piece in their style and take something from this experience for yourself. But I get where you coming from, people will get triggered by the "copying" term, ignoring "to learn" part. With that in mind, maybe it will be more fitting to use "studying" instead. But it's just semantics, essentially.

    • @sael5084
      @sael5084 8 месяцев назад +2

      ​@billrazor6591 why does copying references not help when it helps posing and constructing shapes etc. Since most artists these days won't be drawing from their imagination only but copy references

    • @billrazor6591
      @billrazor6591 8 месяцев назад +11

      @@sael5084 I never said anything about using references, i don't know where are you getting that from. Artists of all skill levels use references in their work, there's nothing wrong with that. My original reply was about that "studying" an artist and "copying to learn" from an artist's work are essentially the same thing.

    As much as I come to watch the skills and technique based videos, these artist and style breakdown videos are a fascinating and useful addition. Not replacement, but addition. You always preach the importance of observation, but as someone still at an early stage, it's hard to look at things from multiple perspectives. Having these breakdowns helps build up a more integrated view of how the artist's skills and decisions blend together to form their style and images.

    I don't have any idea about color theory but then I saw Mai's works and was mesmerized by it at an instant. I was wondering how she does this and makes it perfect all the time. But now I do know about how she does this thanks to you Marc. Hope I can imply these tips to my future works 😅😅

  • @jikannomajo
    @jikannomajo 8 месяцев назад +18

    Mai is my personal end game when it comes to art. I always loved their flowy dreamy and yes, their color correction does wonders to paint this cohesiveness that magically appears during their art process. Their artwork gives off that "being in the moment" which I love about art itself.

  • @3up3rn0va

    Shignori Soejima. Love that dude. He’s the main lead artist for Atlus games and he’s so good! I love his nior style especially in the Persona games. This is a cool series idea! I should study other artists and see how they paint because I may be confident in drawing but not painting 😬

    This series you're doing right now touches on that EXACTLY, and you're better at explaining the details and nuance that comes with this process so it's incredibly helpful.
    Funny enough Yoneyama was also on my list of people I've been really inspired to study but haven't gotten to it yet so when I saw that you studied her work on my IG feed, I instantly had to come back to CLASS.

    I rarely write comments, but I want to say Thank you. Thank you Marc for everything you are doing. For knowledge, for positivity, for motivation. You are not just a great artist but also an amazing person to who I listen with pleasure and gratitude. You keep new artists motivated, you show them that anything is possible, and when I feel down and want to screw it all I come back to you, happens all the time. There are thousands of people who think like that and we all are gratefull ♥

    Wow. VERY impressive, and very well-executed idea for a series (digging into the elements of these artists' style.) I feel kind of spoiled this is free. Thanks.

    Class made of awesome! Many of these tips will be useful even if someone doesn't want to study this particular style. But the brush update is even more awesome because I was looking for one like this for months now. It's perfect, thank you!

    I definitely didn't get half of that, but I saw the changes with my own eyes, saw things I wanted to try out, definitely a great series
