To me your voice seems to be imbued with so much reverence and passion it makes me admire you equally
MY EYES HAVE BEEN CLEANED WITH AMAZING ART.
James Jean is one of my favorite artist, i own 4 of his art books they are all beautiful
So you’re telling me he colored his drawings with acrylics he found on a dumpster on his neighborhood??!!! Omfg one day i will be able to coax any media given at hand, this is gonna be my ultimate goal in art starting from today.
I like this relatively unknown art of his much more then the things he's known for.
I love his early drawings in the book . Amazing
Someone gave me the Illustrated life. That was before I was sketching. They gave it to me as an exercise for scrapbooking. So amazing you are the author.
I've only comes across James Jean for the first time in the last year or so. It's really wonderful to see his earlier work and his sketchbooks. Wonderfully presented--thank you!
Wonderful installment. I love the length, content, and commentary.
Amazing drawing! I agree that I prefer these to his actual work and even to his paintings. Thanks for sharing
His work just blows me away! This man is god
Thanks for showing those, I've been a fan of James Jean, long time. Nicely done.
I first became aware of his work with the Fables covers. Amazing work.
Nancy Palmer he made those? Im gonna sub. Thats one of my favorite game series
IDK if you still dont know but wrong Fable, he meant the comic book series one, the only Fable game thats based on the comic i know is Telltales' Wolf Among Us.
james jean also inspired me to pursue illustration/fine art like man these are crazy my dude has a great eye and artistic sense
Thanks so much for showing the hand drawn early work of James Jean, the ones that are published and so rare to find now. James Jean has such fine skill with the figure and make narrative art, art that tells multi-layers of subjective stories.
Thanks for sharing this experience - enjoyed it immensely 👌
Soo rich and full, love his work!
Really clear video and audio, this is a great channel :)
Incredible :))) thank you sooo much for showing ♡
Only 2 words ...
THANK YOU...
I had been watching the odd sketchbook video here and there, then came across this video, I recognized the name. Turns out I have your book An Illustrated Life sat on my bedside table as we speak!
This channel is great, it compounds everything I'm looking for. great production and presentation.
Thanks for sharing! I have your book An Illustrated Life and James Jean's Rebus. I love them both!
absolute fantastic detail at 11:11, just amazing
i love how the most detail/ shading is focussed around faces, whereas clothes and buildings are simpler - really gives a clear focal point
💯!
James jeans art actually brought me to Kim jung hi who became my top influence
That was a wonderful walk through and introduction to a fabulous artist. I also found your insights and observations interesting. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing (I will be getting his books). My good friend attended SVA and he also became a famous artist. The highlight of the dot.com era assisted great illustrators such as Frenchman, Pete Lardy among others (also studied at SVA). I had the pleasure to hang with these individuals due my close friend who was well known in the industry. I attended SVA night classes but at last, I was no where near the talent of those great individuals.
he is Always creating Interesting pieces, the amount of detail in his work can be daunting for most artists
He's new to me. Amazing!
happy to find this amazing artist because of his "the shape of water" poster
amazing artist!
Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Inspiration!
An amazing talent. Much of his line work looks like he was heavily influenced by Bob Zeiring. But then, there aren't many of us illustrators who aren't.
I took up your suggestion to draw in my sketchbook with a pen only since they my sketchbook has exploded with both imaginative and real life drawings.
I thought I overheard but the artist's name actually IS James Jean. I mean. With that name, you gotta be good :D
Almost a responsibility.
I always wanted to have a copy of this book process recess but never got one, thanks for showing it in your video !!!!
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing!
Amazing works! Reminds me a lot of Kim Jung Gi.
Thanks for making this! I love these kind of videos!
I'm pretty shure he uses gouache instead of inks for those portraits.
Just in case someones wondering.. :)
Great vid, lovely artist!
HE IS THE BEST.
WOW....such talent!

You spelled hard working and skillful wrong
Amazing artist
Truly inspirational
execelente Comentario. Demuestras mucha pasión en tu trabajo como curador, y comunicando en tu canal de youtube. Gracias por compartir tus libros de James Jean. SIn duda es un autor del que se puede aprender mucho.
Saludos
Thank you
Inspirational series
gosh, fantastic
Fantastic works. Is there any mention of his influences because I am seeing Hieronymus Bosch and some figments from The Garden of Earthly Delights particularly? Loving the reviews btw, especially as I am trying to get back to my drawing after years of concentrating on home educating my son(s).
Thanks
Wow you're very talented.
James rockz
I’m curious to know what the lines and chunks of text/script say in the drawings?
It's probably just some notes, description of the object you want to draw. I've seen many people doing this before, Cesar Santos for example. You can check the interview with Cesar Santos on Proko's channel. He explained what's the purpose of the writings in his sketchbooks.
What kind of Sketchbooks are these and what kind of paper surface is it.? I know something was said but I couldn’t understand it.
Thank you!:)
Would you be kind enough to list the art supplies. If anything post. Photo of them. I’d really appreciate your help. Great content and def need his book. Hopefully one day.
kim jung gi is another amazing artist
Nice intro and monologue
i love it so so
How can you tell James Jean is sketching fast?
loose lines
His line work shows it,
cool vid thanks
I hate having low self esteem, I want to draw in my sketchbook whenever I want but I get too self conscious of my stupid self
I've asked this question many times for these kind of ink and pen work. How the hell do they have it come out so clean, confident and gestural, all at the same time? I can do direct pen on paper, but it never is this clean, or it becomes too rigid. I feel so frustrated.
Do they start with one part of the body, say the torso, and then compare that to another part and then draw that? Because when I do these kind of drawings I like to capture the gesture first, then the masses, then likeness. But with direct pen and paper, this way of doing it ends up messy.
What am I doing wrong?
i know this is old comment but, i believe if one ain't got the talent, then at least one could gamble on hard work, studying & practicing hours per day
You kinda answered your own question when you said confidence. You have to practice to the point where you know anatomy backwards and forwards. You can get to a point where you are confident enough of your knowledge on anatomy that your drawing doesn't look muddied.
However, I will say, I am familiar with the type of ballpoint pen he uses, they are called SKB ballpoints (just google it). They have the finest point I have ever used on a ballpoint. You can achieve a really light line if you use light pressure on the pen. I highly recommend.
I started drawing directly on pen 2 years ago. My line quality has improved a lot and I’m more confident, but it’s still not the best.
Art takes a long time to master. Pages and pages of book need to he filled.
Beautyfull
I'm going to search his name and see what else I can find about him. . .
master
I love his early drawings in the book . Amazing
