A refreshing break from all the unadventurous photorealism and photocopying that you usually see on YT videos of artists today. His work is vigorous and exciting, revealing in the formal elements of art in a way reminiscent of Cubism and other Modernist methods. There was a sense then of getting something besides just the pure physical form of a thing, something other than pure materialism.
This is a personal journal documenting my studies in art - mainly just a place to keep notes and to organize my thoughts better than I could in a handwritten journal (you can't do a search in a paper journal, or post live links). My ultimate goal is oil painting, but I want to start with developing my grasp of the basics in drawing.
