@@ark5037 I don’t like it when they do it just for the money. If there’s emotion behind it, I can accept that as art because there’s something that the artist wanted to express.
If you’re going to be selling these paintings especially for that high of an amount make sure you use paint that has a high light fastness so that way the customer’s painting won’t fade over time. Also seal the canvass when done.

Exactly. And I'm sorry to say, at least the example of the ebay listing "vortex" had some decent composition and actually looked good.The ones he posted *show* that he didn't put any forethought into them and just splatter paint with no thought to color, saturation, composition, and tone.
I'm sorry, no offense but hasn't art always been taken lightly? It literally is just anyone randomly making something and giving it life through their description or the audience interpretation. 🤷♀️
@@steph6337 nope, even Jackson Pollock, the guy who made this artstyle famous, gave serious consideration to the depth and dimension of his pieces. Why do you think art history or entire art degrees exist? Putting brush to canvas isn't easy, there are things to consider. And, no, art has never been taken as easy except by people who haven't studied it. Picasso had to train for years to develop his now famous art style. In fact go read through Polluck's Wikipedia page, see how his style was formed, how art critics themselves don't agree on the art. Pollock's pieces (cause it's hard to tell from an image) had LAYERS of paint. To the point you could actually see the thickness of the paint on the canvas if you saw it in person.
Honestly on tiktok when this became a trend, this was actually ruining some peoples income by having a LOT more on eBay where people solely depend on eBay and other auction websites for their income and this trend made it harder to sell their art.
@@no_namegkjhfkashfkdshflkjdashf you can assume it is. Art and abstract “art” have two different purchase communities, one is for money laundering and one is for either money laundering or to look nice

As an artist, the way he painted the background hurt me 😩 Edit: jeeze I didn’t mean to cause a whole argument it’s not that big a deal. I’m not being mean, and he probably isn’t offended anyway because art is not his profession. It’s a joke people!!
This “art” looks like garbage sitting at the bottom of my sink after dinner. Come back when you can draw something similar to Mona Lisa or Pablo Picasso.
@@KhanMann66 garbage for you cause you didn't study history of art. But honestly, like someone who study history of art, his art is garbage 🤣 cause there is no meaning behind it
People don't seem to understand that you still have to be good at art to make abstract art- it's still a skill to know where shapes should go and how to add colors to depict depth
There is no skill. I put painting on ebay of a canvas I splattered with purple paint, called it the price of royalty, and it sold for 5k. No art experience. Stop lying yo.
The problem is that abstract painters usually have a foundation in painting and understand composition. If you want to make abstract paintings go for it but like genuinely learn about the really interesting history
Actually also throwing paint on canvas is art, and the more time you spend on details in abstract art the less it will look like abstract and what people don't understand is, as fast as you can see some figures or shapes in an "abstract" art, it is not abstract anymore. And yes, the foundations and meaning is very important but many abstract artists had no artistic schools and actually just did art because it made them feel good and also because they just didn't know how to draw well otherwise. Yes I also studied art and abstract art is a very interesting thing mostly when it came out it was more like an experiment with paint, how the canvas can behave with color and no big meaning at all.
@@noname-vd9rc doesn’t make it good art. Sure you can just throw paint on a canvas and call it a day and be satisfied with it but if you intend to sell it as fine art you need to actually take some time to put thought into your art. Anyone can make art but not everyone can make good art worth selling.
There is actually really nice abstract art, and if you compare it with people who are just doing random stuff, you can tell the difference (although it depends on the artist's style as well)
The CEO's wife at a company I once worked for did "abstract art" that was somewhat short of hideous, but far from engaging or pleasant to look at. They kept it upstairs, in the management areas, so customers wouldn't insult her canvases with honest opinions. I learned to walk past without looking at them. I'm an artist, and save abstract for filling my backgrounds, as I don't feel confident in balancing a work without a subject. And haven't been exposed to enough good abstract to find pursuing it appealing, as a rule. I have been learning some cool effects with alcohol inks and resin that are abstract and nifty, and it's a lot of fun to explore!
When your an actual professional artist that has spent your life painting and drawing to have this trend completely uproot the small business community and make it even harder to price our works. I've had someone fight with me saying because someone else did this to them and upcharged an expensive piece to give them a random abstract that was made by an impassionate person. They didn't trust me and said I was going to do the same untill I sent them a video of a walkthrough of my canvas pieces to show I did infact paint how I said I did and was not just trying to get as much money out of them as possible. These joke trends actually mess up people's lives, but it's worth it for the click huh?
Anything for clicks and views. Societies and civilizations collapse all the time. It’s just our turn and we’re watching it all unfold before our very eyes. 😵💫
Art is subjective. If someone likes a random persons art more than yours. Than what difference does it make that you went to school for it or are a “professional” Jimi Hendrix couldn’t read or write music. Didn’t stop him from being the best guitar player of all time.
as an artist myself, this is just sad. art isn’t about making money it’s about putting your voice and views out into the world. so for you to just think you can make whatever with ZERO passion for art itself is a jab to all artists.
If it sells, it sells 🤷♂️. If people actually buy this, it kinda shows how dumb abstract art has become to the point where randos can make and sell art pieces.
@@JADBeats The thing is the people buying it probably just think "oh, abstract and expensive? Must be good" rather than actually appreciating the painting. Because let's be real, there's nothing remotely aesthetically pleasing about the painting in the video.
Why is society like this why would people prefer random paint rather than an insanely realistic portrait. My guess is it makes people feel special because they can tell people what they think it is and it makes them look smart it’s pretty dumb tbh
If you have a name that is recognizable, yes. I highly doubt that people are really selling these with a nobody name. Lol probably had their friends bid and buy.
People: thinks selling simple art for an unreasonable price is dum. Also people: still do it Tiktokers: do it and think they are genuinely making a change for the better
While not for me, (artist myself and just as a viewer) there's big differences in multiple things here vs 'professional' abstract. (Now I don't know or follow this person so I don't know if it's really meant as serious content or satire, but I'm going off assumption of serious content) He at least got the initial idea right with abstract- until the "making it look like stars thing". Abstract is changing the form so it's barely if at all recognizable as an object/the same object. (In this case the huge rubberband ball) Non-objective is the 'throw paint on canvas' type paintings that tend to get lumped in with abstract (they're meant to hold no visible connection to the original object, if there's an original object at all). The 'professional' types tend to seem more professional or at least visually appealing because they're paying attention to a bunch of concepts (color schemes, values and tones, forms and lines, etc) while also (sometimes) throwing paint on a canvas, and making necessary adjustments as needed. Just tossing paint on layer after layer just because causes the messy (in an unappealing way) look that artists trying the style for the first time/those who don't know what to pay attention to. Same idea behind asking athletes to try different sports they don't usually do- might have the same core abilities (strength, endurance, etc) but completely different skills. Personally why I don't do much of any kind of abstraction type works (cubism and the others included) I'm much more interested and invested in realism type pieces (unless they're like concept works for movies or projects)
These abstract paintings are great for adding a splash of color that compliments your room's color scheme. I don't think they're worth hundreds of dollars, but artists who can add strong, contrasting colors on a subtle setting are worth the price in my opinion
@@theroidragedtrex7908 really? Spreading random shit on a canvas is precise? So you're telling me this shit is more precise than people who carefully make clean lines and shade while paying attention to the lighting?
@@unseentable5217 dude this dude is not an artist and is making fun of people actually making abstract art. Abstract is very tough to make and is nowhere near "random lines"
The difference between abstract paintings made by an artist vs someone who is just doing for fun is usually technique. Color palettes usually vibe better and there’s usually some kind of different in texture. I dont like abstract paintings much but they do take more effort than people think
I follow a lot of artists with varying styles. And all of them downright refuse to make NFTs or "abstract" art despite how much money they could make if they did.
Abstract painters are thiefs. They are one of the most biggest rip off I have ever seen. They are con artist. On the other hand, we have dumb people buying them, thinking they know what they're buying. I paint hyperrealism with oil paint. A good large size painting will take me from 300 to 400 hours. I could easily make an abstract painting that would take me 5 minutes and just bullshittin about it and sell it, but that's not art. Stop stop fooling people with this bullshit. I don't know when this trend will end?
I tried abstract before because I love it. It's really hard to make, hats off to abstract painters honestly I prefer to focus on anatomy, it's easier and more satisfying for me to make realistic stuff tbh. As a result though when I try to include abstract elements in my paitings, it looks pretty bad. I should take classes lol
This isn't "abstract," it's just trying to get bank off of fake art. I know this video was obviously a joke, but stuff like this covers up smaller artists who really are trying to put themselves out there more than most people realize.
@@user-Prometheus hurts me when you see art like this getting hundred or thousands sometimes but actual effort into a piece Doesn’t get much often. I get that people have different tastes but your paying hundreds or thousands for something you could do very quickly. So I hope art with a lot more effort in gets noticed
I'm very happy you can find yourself a passion here, but abstract painting isn't easy, I al someone who loves abstract but having tried it, I find it extremely hard to pull it off nicely. Keep up working and improving, but please don't let it be at the expense of abstract artists :P
Bro try some color relationship theory and some gestalt laws and get your abstract paintings looking more professional. Yeah abstract painters don't always study that but most of them apply them subconsciously
If you want others to have feeling about your painting, you have to start with putting emotions and feelings with the painting, you have to make a point with what you draw.❤
Remember when art used to be actual scenes or items that resonate with the viewers (such as van Gogh's Starry Night) or had a deeper meaning (such as The Creation of David) and not just some spastic going haywire with the brush?
@@controversial-being hey mate, I actually don't mind the booldthirst part of it, so do you mind giving me a quick bite? I really want to live an extended lifetime. :)
I love how this basically shows the ridiculousness in putting extremely high values on paintings-- it's only if the artist is famous, but then how do you become a famous artist..?
Nah abstract is priming the canvas, paint mixing, colour theory, structure, composition skill, and individuality, that’s why a real abstract piece looks interesting while his looks like a child made it
I judged the deeper meaning of abstract art by how fun the painting process is and more importantly how appealing it is to me anything else is hogwash.
0:41 it dosen't make sense the circle is an shape reprezenting infinity but not the background (the past is technically finite cause its the future that has already happend, or something like that)

I'm not saying it's not art... I just don't get it.
He's not saying he's gonna be Picasso. He's trying a trend and he's having fun. What's wrong with that? And the type of art he's making is abstract art. He wasn't trying to draw a actual portrait of the ball. You said you spent time making smooth lines and gradients. That's not abstract art though.

Exactly. And I'm sorry to say, at least the example of the ebay listing "vortex" had some decent composition and actually looked good.The ones he posted *show* that he didn't put any forethought into them and just splatter paint with no thought to color, saturation, composition, and tone.
@@kabutower7334 lol, it's funny how artist who draw very realistic stuff that made for hours at the end get called printed
I'm sorry, no offense but hasn't art always been taken lightly? It literally is just anyone randomly making something and giving it life through their description or the audience interpretation. 🤷♀️
@@steph6337 nope, even Jackson Pollock, the guy who made this artstyle famous, gave serious consideration to the depth and dimension of his pieces. Why do you think art history or entire art degrees exist? Putting brush to canvas isn't easy, there are things to consider. And, no, art has never been taken as easy except by people who haven't studied it. Picasso had to train for years to develop his now famous art style. In fact go read through Polluck's Wikipedia page, see how his style was formed, how art critics themselves don't agree on the art. Pollock's pieces (cause it's hard to tell from an image) had LAYERS of paint. To the point you could actually see the thickness of the paint on the canvas if you saw it in person.
Honestly on tiktok when this became a trend, this was actually ruining some peoples income by having a LOT more on eBay where people solely depend on eBay and other auction websites for their income and this trend made it harder to sell their art.
They’re supposed to make real art, your not intelligent if you try to make money off of abstract art
@@your_-_mom They never said these artists were making abstract art.

People don't seem to understand that you still have to be good at art to make abstract art- it's still a skill to know where shapes should go and how to add colors to depict depth
There is no skill. I put painting on ebay of a canvas I splattered with purple paint, called it the price of royalty, and it sold for 5k. No art experience. Stop lying yo.

That actually looks good ngl… as someone who did Art
The problem is that abstract painters usually have a foundation in painting and understand composition. If you want to make abstract paintings go for it but like genuinely learn about the really interesting history
Actually also throwing paint on canvas is art, and the more time you spend on details in abstract art the less it will look like abstract and what people don't understand is, as fast as you can see some figures or shapes in an "abstract" art, it is not abstract anymore. And yes, the foundations and meaning is very important but many abstract artists had no artistic schools and actually just did art because it made them feel good and also because they just didn't know how to draw well otherwise. Yes I also studied art and abstract art is a very interesting thing mostly when it came out it was more like an experiment with paint, how the canvas can behave with color and no big meaning at all.
@@noname-vd9rc doesn’t make it good art. Sure you can just throw paint on a canvas and call it a day and be satisfied with it but if you intend to sell it as fine art you need to actually take some time to put thought into your art. Anyone can make art but not everyone can make good art worth selling.
@@noname-vd9rc no, its not. Is washing your ass the same as brushing your teeth?

True. They don't just make stuff up 😅
There is actually really nice abstract art, and if you compare it with people who are just doing random stuff, you can tell the difference (although it depends on the artist's style as well)
Absolutely
I hate that people think all abstract art is trash and random lines
The CEO's wife at a company I once worked for did "abstract art" that was somewhat short of hideous, but far from engaging or pleasant to look at. They kept it upstairs, in the management areas, so customers wouldn't insult her canvases with honest opinions. I learned to walk past without looking at them.
I'm an artist, and save abstract for filling my backgrounds, as I don't feel confident in balancing a work without a subject. And haven't been exposed to enough good abstract to find pursuing it appealing, as a rule.
I have been learning some cool effects with alcohol inks and resin that are abstract and nifty, and it's a lot of fun to explore!
@@sulfurical7439 because that's all it is. Stop living in denial.
@@sulfurical7439 99.9% of it is
this just proves that abstract paintings aren't just random lines, strokes, or dots
Now this has to be the best nfts
When your an actual professional artist that has spent your life painting and drawing to have this trend completely uproot the small business community and make it even harder to price our works. I've had someone fight with me saying because someone else did this to them and upcharged an expensive piece to give them a random abstract that was made by an impassionate person. They didn't trust me and said I was going to do the same untill I sent them a video of a walkthrough of my canvas pieces to show I did infact paint how I said I did and was not just trying to get as much money out of them as possible. These joke trends actually mess up people's lives, but it's worth it for the click huh?
Anything for clicks and views. Societies and civilizations collapse all the time. It’s just our turn and we’re watching it all unfold before our very eyes. 😵💫

Well painting is a joke so yea
@@anthonyrhodes2141 you're a joke
Art is subjective. If someone likes a random persons art more than yours. Than what difference does it make that you went to school for it or are a “professional”
Jimi Hendrix couldn’t read or write music. Didn’t stop him from being the best guitar player of all time.
Outside of the art tips, this trend flooded the market which was another reason amateurs weren't selling the way they thought they would
as an artist myself, this is just sad. art isn’t about making money it’s about putting your voice and views out into the world. so for you to just think you can make whatever with ZERO passion for art itself is a jab to all artists.
Thank you👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯
If it sells, it sells 🤷♂️. If people actually buy this, it kinda shows how dumb abstract art has become to the point where randos can make and sell art pieces.
Shut up
Abstract art itself is degrading to art and has been dumbed down so much. This is what it's like so don't get so butthurt over it.
@@JADBeats The thing is the people buying it probably just think "oh, abstract and expensive? Must be good" rather than actually appreciating the painting. Because let's be real, there's nothing remotely aesthetically pleasing about the painting in the video.
"How to get into the money laundering racket." Lol
A painter is a man who paints what he sells. An artist, on the other hand, is a man who sells what he paints
-Pablo piscasso
I've heard many bad things about Pablo.
Gotta be honest I love this. It reminds me of star gazing on a clear night.
This just proves that modern art does take a lot of skill.
Why is society like this why would people prefer random paint rather than an insanely realistic portrait. My guess is it makes people feel special because they can tell people what they think it is and it makes them look smart it’s pretty dumb tbh
Sure
See you can just close your eyes swing your arm around and create “art” that’s worth more than most households monthly income
Then do it
@@lolbro8701 too much money for paint
If you have a name that is recognizable, yes. I highly doubt that people are really selling these with a nobody name. Lol probably had their friends bid and buy.
Only rich people that do money laundering buy the abstact art

I actually liked the way it turned out. Looks like something from outer space
That looks like the portal Rick and morty go through -
People: thinks selling simple art for an unreasonable price is dum.
Also people: still do it
Tiktokers: do it and think they are genuinely making a change for the better
While not for me, (artist myself and just as a viewer) there's big differences in multiple things here vs 'professional' abstract. (Now I don't know or follow this person so I don't know if it's really meant as serious content or satire, but I'm going off assumption of serious content)
He at least got the initial idea right with abstract- until the "making it look like stars thing". Abstract is changing the form so it's barely if at all recognizable as an object/the same object. (In this case the huge rubberband ball) Non-objective is the 'throw paint on canvas' type paintings that tend to get lumped in with abstract (they're meant to hold no visible connection to the original object, if there's an original object at all).
The 'professional' types tend to seem more professional or at least visually appealing because they're paying attention to a bunch of concepts (color schemes, values and tones, forms and lines, etc) while also (sometimes) throwing paint on a canvas, and making necessary adjustments as needed.
Just tossing paint on layer after layer just because causes the messy (in an unappealing way) look that artists trying the style for the first time/those who don't know what to pay attention to.
Same idea behind asking athletes to try different sports they don't usually do- might have the same core abilities (strength, endurance, etc) but completely different skills. Personally why I don't do much of any kind of abstraction type works (cubism and the others included) I'm much more interested and invested in realism type pieces (unless they're like concept works for movies or projects)
These abstract paintings are great for adding a splash of color that compliments your room's color scheme. I don't think they're worth hundreds of dollars, but artists who can add strong, contrasting colors on a subtle setting are worth the price in my opinion
Bro literally made a Rick and Morty portal
This is pretty cool. Makes me want to try abstract.

I knew this was gonna be one of those shorts that gives me absolutely zero closure.

Meanwhile people actually trying to make good art: "Am I a joke to you?"
You have no idea how precise that is.
@@theroidragedtrex7908 really? Spreading random shit on a canvas is precise? So you're telling me this shit is more precise than people who carefully make clean lines and shade while paying attention to the lighting?

@@unseentable5217 dude this dude is not an artist and is making fun of people actually making abstract art. Abstract is very tough to make and is nowhere near "random lines"
@@unseentable5217 I draw realism fool

that mix of the fresh out the tube blue and yellow and ghastly green is so juvenile. like a child painted a birdhouse they made in summercamp woodshop
The difference between abstract paintings made by an artist vs someone who is just doing for fun is usually technique. Color palettes usually vibe better and there’s usually some kind of different in texture. I dont like abstract paintings much but they do take more effort than people think
I follow a lot of artists with varying styles. And all of them downright refuse to make NFTs or "abstract" art despite how much money they could make if they did.
NFT? Never heard that term. What does it mean, please?
Honestly this is just scamming people telling them your art is worth a lot when it’s not.
Abstract painters are thiefs. They are one of the most biggest rip off I have ever seen. They are con artist. On the other hand, we have dumb people buying them, thinking they know what they're buying. I paint hyperrealism with oil paint. A good large size painting will take me from 300 to 400 hours. I could easily make an abstract painting that would take me 5 minutes and just bullshittin about it and sell it, but that's not art. Stop stop fooling people with this bullshit. I don't know when this trend will end?
I tried abstract before because I love it. It's really hard to make, hats off to abstract painters honestly
I prefer to focus on anatomy, it's easier and more satisfying for me to make realistic stuff tbh. As a result though when I try to include abstract elements in my paitings, it looks pretty bad. I should take classes lol

@@user-Prometheus hurts me when you see art like this getting hundred or thousands sometimes but actual effort into a piece Doesn’t get much often. I get that people have different tastes but your paying hundreds or thousands for something you could do very quickly. So I hope art with a lot more effort in gets noticed
It looks like every abstract art piece I've seen in
Modern art is as bullshit as the things op did
"I decided to model it after my giant rubber band ball"
"And gave it a really abstract bizzare meaning"
I'm very happy you can find yourself a passion here, but abstract painting isn't easy, I al someone who loves abstract but having tried it, I find it extremely hard to pull it off nicely. Keep up working and improving, but please don't let it be at the expense of abstract artists :P
Its literally just shit and calling it art
Oh my god all that paint wasted like that😭 my artist heart is cringing.
Bro try some color relationship theory and some gestalt laws and get your abstract paintings looking more professional. Yeah abstract painters don't always study that but most of them apply them subconsciously
Art is the concreatization of an abstract ideal. This is decoration.
If you want others to have feeling about your painting, you have to start with putting emotions and feelings with the painting, you have to make a point with what you draw.❤
Art nowadays : just spitting chunks of paint on random spots

This is why artists are so competitive
Remember when art used to be actual scenes or items that resonate with the viewers (such as van Gogh's Starry Night) or had a deeper meaning (such as The Creation of David) and not just some spastic going haywire with the brush?
