the carvagio comment is wrong - its not a mistake but do to the tools he used to paint such as a camera obscura (which warped and distorted the image, you can see the hand is also fuzzy which would only happen through a lens )as well as focusing on the individual parts of the human such as the feet that hands the face individually and not being super focused on perfect anatomy.

Thanks goodness for all the masters, the greatest, the great and the not so much. I feel relieved and thankful. Let's keep the good intentions going on.
Beautiful film, thank you so much for giving me the chance of seeing it. I am a beginner and Dianne's quick tips (which I practice) have helped me more than any teacher or RUclips teacher. And then I get sent this wonderful film. I will not give up so easily now. Also, it will make seeing great art work more interesting.
This was so very helpful. It reminded me to be patient, stop before I REALLY lose focus , leave the painting and come back in awhile, maybe days and take a new look. I also refer to my original thumbnail or notan and find clues to a clean finish. What fun we have figuring this out. B
I remember visiting the Egyptology section of Bristol museum (UK). I was looking at a funereal canoe decorated with hieroglyphics. I noticed a section where the horizontal line had gone off course. The painter had presumably licked his thumb to wipe off the wayward section and picked the line up. The previous line had not been completely obliterated and even left a thumb print where he had lifted his thumb after the erasure. I suddenly felt a connection with the artist who had painted it 4000 years previously. It's something I have done many times. We had something in common. We shared what we had intended to be a secret. I was young and more inclined to embarrassment than I would be today as I tried to hide the flood of tears I couldn't understand. I understand now, of course.
@@JillPoyerdFineArt As much as I admire a flawless work of art, it's the imperfections and treatment of errors that make a connection with every artist.
Thank you so much for your videos. You inspired me to pick up my brushes again and get back to work on a painting I've been working on for 20 years, and it's now turning out to be beautiful. Thank you. :D
Every time I hear your voice explaining details, it is so soothing. It is quite meditative and your ability to teach is quite evident. Years of teaching experience is visible and we are lucky to be able to listen to you for free. Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing. This topic is a little heavier than those before. Mistakes in Master's hands tell us that they can be like ordinaries, only not easy to approach as the ordinaries. "Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes, and art is knowing which ones to keep." Wonderful quote.
@@JillPoyerdFineArt Somehow I understand the reason of frustration that PAUL abandon his art piece. This kind of feeling is actually mutually shared as a so-so artist, or even worse. But We all have time to heal any bad feelings about creativity, or we may also change the design in a much natural way. Human nature, even though blended in with betrayal or treachery, but such behavior would greatly lowed the quality of human relationship, create more distrust and more betrayal in life or relationship. These event always related in higher power system, or with strong support in certain community. An isolated artist is only to accept the reality in a volunteering way to work things out.
You always speak with such a calm maternal voice, wisely explaining things from a perspective of love for your subject. Thank you. I learn a lot from you.
I just did a bad drawing today and now I feel better. Thank you Jill for all your fine videos. And thank you Diane Mize for referring me to this video.
You're very welcome, Lisa. I was hoping it would encourage people. As I believe I say in the video, every time I see something that looks "off" in a masterpiece, I feel a little more encouraged.
Absolutely wonderful and powerful video, thank you so much for this, Jill! I've missed your videos! As artists we're always striving for perfection. When I look to the masters, I always assume that every inch of every piece was perfected and intentional. This will help me embrace the mistakes I make and focus on the piece as a whole, rather than perfection.
Thank you very much Jill for sharing with us this special documentary. It brings so much encouragement to us as humans who strive to be perfect, excellent and many times trying to win recognition. It encourages me to be just as I am as fallible as I am as a human in my work and passion but not letting down to always be better in whatever I am learning & doing. Thank you once again.
I just discovered your channel recently and it's amazing! It may be the best channel about art on RUclips, but I can't understand why it's not more popular? You definitely deserve more views!
Another treasure of art and learning beautifully composed. Kintsugi means a lot to my partner and I, we say we are each other's kintsugi. We have had a lot of trauma healed by being together. At the bottom of the beautiful garden he created is a little Summrhouse he built for me, a peaceful, accessible haven (I am now disabled), over the door he put a little brass plaque 'Kintsugi'.
This presentation is a masterpiece. A beautiful piece of real constructive criticism. I feel sure, most of these artists would really appreciate. I thank you.
Jill, as always, you are a very special child of God who can fill the minds with so much great information on the Arts. Thank you so much for creating this. Now I can go back and erase all those wrong pencil marks and not feel bad.
I am an artist, and have struggled with "mistakes" of many years. Some of the accidents are problems, but some turn out to look good, so I leave them in. Thanks for your good video, Jill. Appreciated.
Definitely an eye opener. I try to SEE by walking away, but sometimes I have to wait a few days to have something jump out at me as a problem. Thanks for this!
It would definitily help me to concentrate on my paintings rather than getting worried about lill mistakes sometimes I made..thanks for sharing...with such a positive attitude ...
Hey Jill! I’m going through all the people I subscribe to and saw you.. stopping in just to say how much I love you and your work. Listening is a meditation. There’s so many things that I don’t know I don’t have access to. The brushstrokes of masters was one. It’s helped me and honestly I’m so grateful that a shmuck like me somehow received such gold. I can’t Thankyou enough.
While I agree with all that you stated, most don’t see these “ mistakes” or changes. Sadly, the average person has little experience viewing these works, and would never even look for them. I love your videos. Keep it up and thank you. Being an artist and art history appreciator, while in museums, I too, look for these ‘ changes’. The pentimento as it were.
Actually, one of my hopes is that my work can help change that...even a little. I love it when viewers let me know that watching my videos has enhanced their museum experiences.
I'm so glad it was helpful, Lisa. Yes, we are often so hard on ourselves. It's a common thing with artists, which is one of the reasons I wanted to make this one.
absolutely fantastic video as usual , thank you Jill , very informative and professional video , you made the learning process more fun , please we want more
@@JillPoyerdFineArt I have an artist friend back in my mother country IRAQ told me they're using your RUclips videos as a learning materials for art students, he said they trust you as a source for information
@@a-free4909 I am so honored to hear that, A-free. Wow! Thank you so much for letting me know. I do try so hard to research in-depth and present solid but interesting information.
I have thoroughly enjoyed every single one of your videos. This one in particular. I'm a painter and I understand each artist has their A, B, and trash work. I rarely show anyone my paintings because I can spot all the areas that I consider mistakes. Many of the mistakes you've pointed out... are the same mistakes I wrestle with each time I want to call a painting Finished.
Very enjoyable and educational. I've seen that Ingres painting at the Frick and been so impressed with the overall effect that I did not notice the right arm. Thanks Jill, that was fun.
I'm glad that you are showing us artist's mistakes. Artists make mistakes and they have their weaknesses too. As I do. Art schools have us convinced all art is good art. That's good for them to earn money, that was good for my clinical OCD. But it never helped my art career. I had to put in professional effort for that and make actual mistakes.
I really like how you put that, Shreyas. Yes, you have to be willing to accept some mistakes in order to grow and to produce good art. It can be painful, but it's part of the path.
Excellent video Jill. I've been learning watercolor lately - aided in part by your courses in Udemy - and I am learning to embrace my mistakes (which in watercolor can mean disaster), by changing my inner dialog when a "mistake" happens, from "On no, those paints will run together!" to "It's ok if they run together, they will blend together nicely." It really helps with not being frustrated and makes the painting experience much less stressful
That's fantastic, Tony. That is a key to be able to succeed in my opinion. That easing up within yourself and learning to work with the times things go their own way. So true in watercolor. Of course, there are also times you CAN fix something, but overall it really eases stress...I agree.
> I am learning to embrace my mistakes Would you embrace mistakes from a doctor, lawyer, businessmen, the mechanic who maintains your car's brakes, a commander who was leading you into military combat? I suppose that if your moral ideal is the crucified Jesus, mans life is irrelevant.
Exactly so Ron , well put. Its a balance between a sans soucie attitude and good drawing for me. After that experience will guide that never ending journey.
Even a photograph is loaded with choices by the person taking the picture; Framing a scene and EXcluding, as well as, INcluding is a personal decision.
There's a quote attributed to DaVinci, which I find somewhat comforting: "Art is never finished, only abandoned." We do the very best job that we can, with the knowledge, skills, and materials we have, in the time that we have. Then we let go of the piece, so it stands on its own, with whatever strengths and flaws. It's fortunate when the imperfections make the art even more intriguing and relatable.
My dear you are so right! Many times we miss those mistakes because we take for granted that they were "the Masters" therefore we don't look closely at these paintings when we go to the museums. Thanks for opening our eyes.

It’s amazing how much I focus on my own mistakes, while not even noticing the ones that others make. Interesting video.
I loved learning about the great master’s mistakes because you showed them more human, more like us all.
Exactly, Liliana. It's something that always impacts me when I visit a museum so I was looking forward to sharing it with you all.
