My husband and I always have intriguing conversations after viewing your videos. We recently saw a Picasso exhibit and talked about your suggestions to look at art. I love how you said to observe and question. Reminds me of how I told my 5th graders to think about what they read.

Don’t say it “sucks” at a concert or other art related venue, either, since some of us so rarely get to go to things and don’t want them ruined! Experiences with rude audiences have made going places very unpleasant several times in my life, and people just keep getting more rude! Thanks for your tips on appreciating art!

The Art Doctor: VERY IMPORTANT video!

Loved this....thank you! 👍👍

This was really good! Thank you!

This has helped me immensely in my Public History research, thank you

Well done!

It's really simple: just stand in front of a piece for 5-10 minutes and just look. Look, look around, and slowly "immerse" into it and you'll intuitively develop a subconscious analysis then judgement and finally some enlightenment.

You are adorable. Thank you for this video

This is going to help my content. Thank you!

Madam, your video is brilliant. An English language trainer based in France. Andre BERENYI

Thank you for this clip, Art Doctor! I've graduated Directing for Animation Masters degree, but simple advices like these that you are giving in the clip, make it for me!

Smart as always, and your hair looks GREAT!

Well done on this one! Strikes me that the same tips (well, maybe minus taking photographs) apply to other encounters, like, say, with Scripture...

Yes, it's okay to not like a piece or even hate it. BUT, you might consider being able to articulate why. Am I right?

😅 this is wholesome.

I have a few image of corporating art on rocks that cannot recognize

Is there anyway you can help me doctor

Yes! NO Touchy

Does anyone else notice that some paintings look alive and some look dead? The difference is as dramatic as between real flowers and fake flowers. It doesn't seem to have any relationship to commercial success or popularity, either.

How I look at art.....I look at it and if it's good, I look at it longer. My grandmother was a well known Native artist, before she died, she was working on life sized statues of Natives, and French Fur Traders, trading Fox furs for native tools and what not. These sculptures were made with a bread clay recipe, that my family fought over after she passed, and was for the Smithsonian, to travel arpund the states. She made roughly 5 of these statues then died, and my family left them to rot. Anyways I don't prescribe to the standard art culture, and I don't enjoy the standard in art culture so much that it has left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't appreciate society ruining art culture with silly traditions. I don't like the fact that a really great artist can be ignored completely while someone who paints/creates absolutely mundane childish art get hoisted up driving the laundering through the roof. Humans only enjoy it because they want to be accepted by the critic community, they desire inclusion into the snob sector. Lol. So weird. I don't like when artist name their pieces as it gives a predisposition on what the art actually is. Or If it's a simple painting (little effort in actual work done) of a woman and a man, just standing together against a plain, or maybe an abstract background ,and the artist tries to create a shockingly cringe idea in the mind of the viewer so he drives their brains.....yeah, that is annoying. Or when art institutes try hard to make themselves so off the wall that you literally feel like you are inside a serial killers brain, everyone has to have the same diet, the same silly hats, scarfs and you name it, the accessory list islong.....that is weird. I have more critiques for the art community over art ingeneral . Art for me is an extra curricular activity. It's not like the past where art was the only way to capture a moment in time visually. Today A.I. is getting first place in art competitions while broke college kids are looking at a massive student loan payment and zero back up plan. The art community is so cut throat that it could be painted on a canvas and 150yrs from now the viewer would get extreme anxiety leading to PTSD. Maybe I'm this opinionated because I failed at art? Not in the sense that I'm not good at what I do, but because I was tricked into believing that it was an actual career, which in turn, made me hate the very subject all together. I can't visit an art museum, because my mouth, would get me ejected from the venue. I would probably say something snarky to some Joe sitting in a pondering stance for one half the hour.....thumb and fore finger resting upon their little chinny chinchin. Standard 50s style glass (no prescription) talking to themselves in third person while a bratty teen runs around licking toilet seats for clout on Tic Tok. I would request the sale tag be lowered by 2/3 to reflect my percentage of likeability to any piece I felt grotesquely overpriced/appraised. Art is and will always be subjective to which can not be priced and should not be priced. At least not over a specific amount for time consumed and materials used. That's how I price my art today. What we have here, Islong ingenreal Chinchins, In tents. They ravage the canvas with arrogant oils and A nasty little krill licks the brush just enough to make out a face in the color of the water. That's my opinion on how to view art and solo trek art museums. Hope it didn't "Offend"anyone"
