Thursday Night Live with Melody Lane

I want to have a chat about how to start a painting. And, a lot of art instructors, a lot of artists make a big deal about starting paintings a particular way because it is going to guide you through the painting process. And although there is some truth to that, I think the bigger, important picture is lost.

Prints on canvas are usually made use of to recreate some of the famous artist’s work of art. The famous paintings were affordable only for the rich and wealthy few years back. Most of these were either in the museums or in the living room or drawing rooms of rich people.

No artist has bridged the gap between photography and painting quite like John Baldessari. For over 40 years, he’s given the world art that truly blurs the line between the two, normally thought of as separate arts. And for the most part, John Baldessari prints and his works have been well received by many critics and fans of all ages.

The art of Richard Serra has inspired multiple generations, and caused collectors to see the value of Richard Serra prints and original works. But why exactly is his work so well received?

Brushes vary by so many things – size, use, tip, spring, surface, medium, etc. When looking at a painting, a person may or may not notice the brushwork. This will depend on how much art knowledge he or she has. However, if a painting is completed with the wrong brushes, it will not look good, and this will definitely be noticed.
