I ve only recently found your presentations about art. I m getting a lot out of this. I m old and uneducated but have always appreciated nature and art. Thank you for sharing all these aspects of what we are trying to do.
The art/music analogy is also interesting because musicians compose with a language independent of the outside world. The musician composes with a a system that is so well understood that it is produced directly from the artists heart to their instrument. How can visual art be any different? In order to compose “correctly” the artist must handcuff himself/herself to nature? This doesn’t translate to any other art form…. Where the artist is such a master of their language they can create with only a pencil and paper and nothing else. Otherwise we can only be as creative as what is presented on the model stand?
No one limits our form either way but for some reason there seems be a necessary attachment to the 'earth' perhaps as exemplified by the Antaeus tale referred to my Millet. Long thoughts.
Fascinating discussions as usual! In your DVD you mentioned the possibility of future installments demonstrating your approach with either a pastel or full painting. Is this something that is still in the works? Thanks again Paul!
You asked about how painting is like music. Color and sound occupy different sections of the frequency spectrum. Sound waves are much coarser, meaning the distance from wave peak to wave peak is much larger than light waves. Sound waves are so coarse that you can physically feel them. They cause actual physical vibrations in your ear drums. How harmonious two notes are to each other is the result of the ratio or comparison on one wavelength to another. Some sound waves clash with one another and others are compatible or harmonious. The same is true of light waves with the reds having the lowest frequency and violet the highest frequency in the light wave spectrum. Sound and color are literally different sections of the same physical phenomenon of waves. It is the same physical mechanism that produces them both. They are just in different ranges of the wave frequency spectrum.
waves and particles, you mean, especially with light. That has been demonstrated since the early twenties. Sound is slower than light, yes, but I don't think Mr. Ingbretson is talking literally, but poetically.
In discussion you mention the center of interest and to always keep that ahead of the rest of picture making. So what is the center of interest ? And thank you for sharing these videos ! -H-

Wonderful!
Me too.
I envision the final piece I'm working on every time I srart a painting, but getting to that image in my minds ey is always elusive!
agree on the thing about having to have some imagination when preparing and to imagine what it will look like "inside" my head :)
Although I find it a mental thing held in the mind by feeling. Curious combination.

HI Art, I plan to address this again soon, couple ofd weeks out I think.
Hit that Bell to subscribe! Thanks you for the lesson.
