This is a fascinating concept. I tried analyzing some art that I like, and it mostly falls into the Soft and Confronting quadrant. Which, when I look at the art that I've been making recently, I'm finding that I'm really enjoying my work when I lean into that quadrant rather than trying to be in the Hard and Confronting one. Thanks for this!
it made me realize all the artists i follow has the sweet in common even thought some of them draw about death, its a beauty perspective of it and i discover i without notcing do the same hahaha so is soft sweet/ confronting sweet thanks for the video it made it a lot more clear for me!
I think this is one of my favourite of your videos, it was really interesting, simple enough for me to understand and see how it could be applied/expanded- and of course it introduced me to a bunch of new artists.
@@thedrDraw I think it works! Playing into your strengths and background in psychology as a means of breaking down why art is impactful and how to apply it in your own work is not something I've seen elsewhere at all. I think if you can keep highlighting the strengths of other artists, maybe extend the videos and go a bit more in depth - as well as highlighting your own work and how you have applied these principles, you got a recipe for a great channel.
A factor not addressed was "representational" versus "abstract." I think one factor that works for James Jean's style, is that we can identify the character (be it human or animal - hence, representational) while the other artist shown (the abstract piece) might work in a more interpretive way, or for people who think along those lines or appreciate abstract art. I think this also goes along with what Dr. Draw said about Comics being culturally appreciated.
That's a nice perspective! If we think hard enough we might even find more scales. I just hope we use more than 'good vs bad' or 'skilled vs unskilled'.
Also, he didn't cover any neutral art, only art with polar opposite emotional response. There are many realistic paintings that don't fake any extreme emotion, but rather show calm reality. I also thing detail is an important factor, how comlex the artwork is. Plus, what level of skill is shown, basic or advanced. Many assessments could determine style, but it surely isn't a childish divode like it was presented in the video. Dr Draw better start thinking rationally and not repeat some ВS he learned in kindergarten or some other immature place.
I produce work that falls into the hard, dark, and aggressive. Currently, I am learning color theory, and I find myself using sweet combinations. Thank you for the video!
What a Great video! for a long time i was working on my technical skills but still seem to see a huge gap from my heroes, recently i started to add color and themes around my artwork and saw a huge jump on the impact of my work. its really cool seeing how you breakdown this subject, you definitely helped me understand what are the underlying skills in order to make great art. thank you!
Yeah art is part technical but also about the impact you make. And that can be done regardless of skill. Great to hear it helps. But it also makes me curious: what part of the diagram is yours?
Your judgments are concatenations of the mind and your mid agrees with its (so rigid and narrow) categorizations, in an assertive, selfimportant pathos. Jean has humility and grace, that’s his force, his vibe, no matter what the content of his page or frame is.
I have several of his prints and one of his sculptures. If you like asian inpired art I highly recommend him. He keeps raising the prices on his pieces so jump in now. Glad I found out about him several years ago.
@@thedrDraw He's a rock star in the low brow art world. In the fine art world, he's barely noticed. As an investment, he's probably a poor choice. Buy his work if you like it, but don't expect it to rise in value long term.
I might have a preferred style that's soft and a little confronting. Leaking quite a bit into the sweet spectrum and into the hard spectrum. But I might be wrong, it might change overtime.
So, I don't fall into any of these categories (sweet, confronting, dar etc). I like detail, so I'm attracted to OCD type challenges. But it's neutral, doesn't have any specific feeling, except it's representative and complex. I think you need to consider other ways to classify style, because those two axes don't cover every art style (for example, photorealistic architecture and cityscapes). My question is if extreme emotion even necessary, or we could paint attractive painting in a neutral fashion? Is it too boring?
Nah it's not boring. Honestly this framework is just a way of looking at art but if it doesn't suit you, don't use it. If you like details and hatching for example you might like this channel: www.youtube.com/@KEEZOOsketch
Man, your quality of video is best among other art youtubers not gonna lie, and your teaching techniques is also great!❤. By the way, can you make a tutorial about how to draw people in perspective, i always struggling in that stuff😂
This is very interesting, I find myself just doing art for my course rather than creating so I’m unsure what my style would be, I do have artists that I like but I haven’t pinned down what I want to create for myself
Great video, it really got me thinking about what goes into style, tonally. But I feel like there might be more to the sweet-confronting spectrum than just subject matter; like, sex could be sweet too.
Good question. How is this for you? What is your art style determining the frame presented in this video? And what do you like? I think they can be different and the same. Depends on the person.
One of the best explained video on art style….
Thank you!

Nice, my girlfriend is also an artist and she likes the same region, soft and confronting. This spectrum has something poetic.
I rarely watch two videos in the row from the same channel but i think im goin on to the third one now ! Love them . Thank u
it made me realize all the artists i follow has the sweet in common even thought some of them draw about death, its a beauty perspective of it
and i discover i without notcing do the same hahaha
so is soft sweet/ confronting sweet
thanks for the video it made it a lot more
clear for me!

Oh really? I'm happy to read that. Yeah I'm trying out a new format going a bit more essay-like

Ah cool to hear, you work sound very interesting
I found this personal explication really helpfull. Never thought someone could resume such an important concept in a 8 minut video, thanks a lot 🤘🏼🎷🐛
Now I'm tempted to attempt combining soft, hard, sweet, and confronting all into one.
Oeh going for the middle spot, that's challenging!
I found a gem in this video, and started putting fantastic elements my work again like before when comics would inspire me.
Ah so cool, thanks for sharing!
What a Great video!

James is on another level
True story
now i need to draw more
haha yes! But first what do you think your art style is? sweet or confronting?
I have several of his prints and one of his sculptures. If you like asian inpired art I highly recommend him. He keeps raising the prices on his pieces so jump in now. Glad I found out about him several years ago.

That's interesting! I think when you get close to the border it becomes more interesting.

Even on the bunnies, the anatomy looks acceptable. Very interesting art study. Makes me wonder why style is a fuss among some artists.

Well take a look at some work and use this perspective. I'm curious what it'll bring you

Totally agreed, good observation!

Do you think that a persons taste in art is the opposite of his artstyle or that one likes art in his own style more?
Good question. How is this for you? What is your art style determining the frame presented in this video? And what do you like? I think they can be different and the same. Depends on the person.
