Discover the secrets to crafting an iconic art style! 🎨 In this eye-opening video, we delve deep into the reality of artistic talent and mastery. Picasso wasn't born a genius; he developed his skills over time. We explore his journey from early, less-known works to his globally acclaimed masterpieces like the Guernica, revealing how he, and other master artists, utilized foundational art principles borrowed from ancient traditions and African art.
Uncover why the so-called genius and talent often attributed to young artists can be misleading. Art historians and critics often promote myths that overlook the hard work and development behind an artist's evolution. We challenge these myths by showcasing how understanding and applying these 'building blocks of beauty' can transform anyone into a creator of beautiful, impactful art, regardless of their starting skill level.
Why aren't these building blocks taught in art schools? The answer might surprise you. Art schools often focus more on theoretical knowledge rather than practical skills that empower artists. This video isn't just a critique; it offers a practical, four-step process that guides you on how to identify, understand, and utilize these building blocks to develop your unique art style.
If you're tired of conventional art education and hungry for real, actionable knowledge that transcends traditional learning, this video is your gateway to becoming the artist you've always aspired to be. Remember, it's not about innate talent; it's about understanding and applying the core elements of art that have been used by the masters.

What …?you could be a genius and not have any …friends lol..creating something doesn’t depend on the average of your friends opinion ,,,or the whole world for that matter ..what if all your friends only like rainbow dots …and you want to express the value of pi….would Vincent have left any paintings if it were up to people other than his brother ?
@@waen606 Even in your answer, you show you have been conditioned to believe in the lonely artist starving in his attic. Vincent Van Gogh had a large support group, but part of his decline later in life was the waning of it. Apart from his brother Theo, he had a fellow artist and friend, Emile Bernard shared ideas and exchanged letters with Van Gogh. Their discussions on art and technique were influential, and Bernard admired Vincent's work. Anton Mauve was a Dutch realist painter and Van Gogh's cousin by marriage. He introduced Van Gogh to painting in oils and provided early mentorship, although their relationship later became strained.
Paul Gauguin and Van Gogh developed a friendship and even lived together for a time in Arles, France. Although their relationship was tumultuous, Gauguin's influence and their artistic exchanges were significant in Van Gogh's development as an artist. Anthon Van Rappard corresponded with Van Gogh and visited him several times. Their discussions and mutual critiques helped shape Van Gogh's approach to art. Then there was John Peter Russell:. An Australian artist who had befriended Van Gogh in Paris. Russell admired Van Gogh's work, and they exchanged ideas and techniques, influencing each other's styles.
Those who would control you, want to separate you from others who share your beliefs and your spirituality.
❤DOES MY PET TIGER COUNT❤
When it comes to artists feeling like they have no time to be artists or that it is too late... Famous American Architect Frank Lloyd Wright's career didn't take off until he was in his 60s. Grandma Moses didn't start painting until she was in her 80s (after raising 10 children). So long as you can still breathe, you have time to be a great artist.
This is so encouraging. Thank you for sharing 🩵
Thank you so much for this! 🙏
I have another one to add to the list: legendary impressionist Claude Monet was in his late 70s when he painted his first canvas. Just a few short years before his first cataract surgery.
Beautifully said!

Picasso crafted an iconic art style by studying African sculptures and then pretending that wasn't his influence.
I wanna donate $2 for you to get a haircut & another $1 if you quit using hair ties . This is the 1st steps & building blocks to beauty. .
10 minutes of my life ill never get back. Thanks for nothing
Should've stopped at the 2 minute mark then.
I have an art style. I have sold dozens of paintings. I don't have a problem selling what I create. I want to sell it for the price my idea, formed into a painting, presented in the most elegant way deserves. I am a huge fan of beauty. As an art collector, I seek beauty the same way I like to create it when I am painting. Selling has never been a problem for me. Selling it for a few thousand more is where I am at. It will happen - give or take ten years.
how did u sell ur art . and where ? pls ansering me thx . a lot
@@frank-f7r3t Authenticity is the word that takes courage and a commitment to be truthful. Presenting your case as an artist - whatever that may be without the FEAR of it not being accepted by people. If you cannot take that leap of faith, by creating something that is true to your values, beliefs, personality, then your art will not sell. Putting it on the platform and social media with a price tag that you feel comfortable to let go. People want art that they can enjoy and pass on to their children once they are gone. So finding a recognizable style is a must. Exhibiting your art is the second step. Putting a price that you are comfortable letting a piece go is the third. For more information, you can read it in the book "A Strategic Painter - Mastermind Your Craft".
Sell for thousands in 10 years? Good luck with that. Some very well known artists of yesteryear cannot be sold at all these days. Artists, like art, go in and out of fashion.
“Stealing” implies someone owns it. The ancients didn’t own the golden ratio. He “uses” the same methods as ancients. So Picasso didn’t “steal”. All artist are influenced by other artist. All of them. Also you say “building blocks” a lot, like almost too much. But good video.
True. The building blocks of composition aren’t ‘stolen’. They are learned and used. Btw - more than one artist is “artists”.
The ancients going all the way back to the Greeks understood these building blocks. The golden ratio. They studied nature to find the essence of aesthetic beauty. What is asthetically pleasing to the eye. The proportions that are repeated over and over in nature. It's like understanding the fingerprints of God, the Creator, or as the Greeks said the Great Mover. It was a well kept secret among tradesmen, these proportions that were passed down from the master to the apprentice which is reflected in architecture and even cabinet making.
absolutely! Nice link to god, the creator. I like it.
I paint in 5 styles under five pseudonyms . Its brilliant.
So much to say about all this. There's so much more to all of it. Sometimes a simplification can give the essence of a matter. While your ideas are helpful, I feel in part, you missed something important. Your idea could have potential to lead to ignorance of the whole history of art/ art world you want to be a part of, just creating some 'fake' style to get by... yet, the art world has its own dark holes that I believe can consume people. Picasso did not just copy some ancient/ African art. He trained as an artist from childhood. He developed great skills. Then, by his inner searching, art sense, he found what art appealed to him, that his soul was sparked to create. He was living an art career, not some sham formula to get by. .. he also went to France.. He looked at art the world over. He was influenced by early modern artists very much, like Matisse & Cezanne. The art he created is the art that resonated with him, & it was not some 'copy' a style. He found the African & ancient art to resonate with his Cubism experiements, messing with vision, with viewpoints & his experimentation after exposure to work of fellow contemporaries in France. He lived at a time where there was very much a focus on further developing 'theories' of art among artists in the art world. It is so much more than just go find traits of a style you like & make art like that. Think deeper about all this & evaluate, the same way you talk of thinking & styles. To me, there are pits you can fall in, outside the art world, as well as within it; such as if you are programmed to be 'acceptable' with 'topics of today,' instead of authentic.. Being authentic is not discussed in this video, as a big clue to my point. Blessings everyone. Peace. Love wins. Love in the art world to everyone.
SO WELL SAID.
Thank You.
I really enjoyed reading your perspective.
❤ first video I've seen of yours. And I thank you for your advice from the bottom of my heart..xx
You have to know the RULES in order to break them.
Q: What books would you recommend to start to understand the basic rules (building blocks) of Art, Design, & Beauty?
Good question. I feel like I should have an answer but I don't have one hahaha XD. I know a book for literature that is like this but for visual art. There is not really a book that is focused on this, or at least not that I know of. Perhaps someone from the comment section can give you a better answer.
Another non-answer answer. Bravo! Huckster.
As for reference books, go find them at used book stores, sometimes the older the better. Looks for simple basic books, read them, understand them, practice them, then find a more advanced book and repeat.
❤YOU ARE MADE OF THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF BEAUTY❤
Nice thinking Dries. I have a similar perspective on this after i graduated from art school with nothing to show for it. I'd like to connect on social media if you don't mind
Always good to see your vids Dries, honest and informative.
I appreciate that
Picasso is a freak. He was an artist and later became an creepy clown.
why creepy clown?
Love it Dries-all so true. Great video as always (Topsy) 😊
Thank you! 😁 This has been a long time. You keep on changing those handles but the pictures stays the same. Very recognizable sky.
The idea that getting in to a good circle of artists, itself sucks. As a young artist I had artist friends who dropped off when the jealousy set in. If Dries knows how to sell art in 5 minutes
why is he not doing this himself instead of making these videos with half researched ideas? If he thinks he can sell sand to a camel, make art that is very commercially appealing I am 100 per cent certain he would be doing that now. These videos reach out to young inexperienced youtubers who naively think there is a method of achieving success. Just do what is right for you and, hey! you might just get lucky.
I just found your straight, to the point videos. I laughed so much. Picasso went to Galicia and he drew everything he saw. What did he see? Galician Art.
I saw Andy Warhol's "paintings" prior to his pop art, that was so horrible LOL
Picasso wasn't "born with talent"?? 🤦🏻♂️ A true student would know his immensely talented & skilled paintings from his teens. One doesn't "steal" the Golden Ratio, it is a tool/theory used throughout history. Iconic art does not make an artist a genius. 🤦🏻♂️ Being an artist & being a student of Art History are not the same thing. So much drivel, he sure does like to hear himself talk.
I think this video more than interesting especially for who never went to art school...like me 🤣
Art school is overrated .
So true! Amazing how few art students are taught the basics of drawing before moving on to painting and sculpture is astounding.
also true
verbose.
Plot twist. I hypnotize the guys who keep trying to tell me it was all over in my 2020s, and then they think it was all over in THEIR 2020s. Problem solved.
Great advice. Thank you for the content you provide.
My pleasure!
Awesome video, never thought about art style this way!❤ one thing... I can't find the link to the pdf you mention (it should be in the description but I can't find it for some reason). Thanks again for all your videos😊
Yes that's because I didn't put it in description. Thanks for pointing it out. I've now changed the description and put the whole link thing there.
@@driesketels many thanks for your quick reply and for fixing it so fast. It shows how much you care about people. I really appreciate it 🙂
@@driesketelsI emailed a few questions about the Artists Residency, I hope the email went through properly. Thanks again!😊
It's a good day when Dries drops another video! Great advice!
With pleasure
The Building Blocks of Beauty. Thankyou for this enlightening speech!
you're welcome
Did anybody sign up for the paid thing? Is it legit? The claims look too good to be true?
Can you make a video about the relationships between artists and galleries and what would be a way to succeed without gallery representation? They clearly take advantage of artists and the sole purpose is monetary gain but somehow the artist always ends up losing.
That is such a great question. It's so good that I've made an entire channel around it. I've even made a whole program about it called the artist formula. I assume you are new here. Welcome to the channel. You'll love this. This whole channel is literally giving you the tools to succeeed without galleries.
@@driesketels thank you! Will do. Great videos!
@@driesketels I think you think you are on to something when I just hear you stating the obvious. I mean I get it but I want to hear something new.
I think you are wrong I believe Picasso was a genius
From day 1 or became genius after practice?
Dries, go look at his paintings/drawings from his teens. Even the elementary school work you referenced shows composition & color skill. What's your beef with acknowledging talent, even if it's from a misogynist marketing genius.
@@wilsonjpw Because he's selling something of course lol.
Your videos are always amazing!!!🤩
Glad you like them!
So true.
👏👏👏👏👏👌
whoooooo
true
Thanks!
Very informative
Glad you think so!
so true... love it...
nice
I love you man lol
hehe. Have a great week
