Күн бұрынJames Gurney is our podcast guest this week! He’s the creator behind Dinotopia and the author of “Color and Light” and “Imaginative Realism”. James talks with us about how he was able to succeed with his own art education and how it deviated from traditional art schools. We also take a look at popular art books that you can study from, try to imagine what the future of art education looks like, and talk about the struggles of using animals as live models.

I fit firmly into the second group James brought up in the intro. I drew daily all through my childhood and into my teens and was quite good for my age. I pretty much stopped in my mid teens when starting to look at A levels and Uni courses, with encouragement in other directions from my parents. And now, here I am at 30 as a software developer trying to make up for lost time. I’ve got a lot of work to do, and I really appreciate all the great advice that comes from this podcast. Thanks to Marshall and Stan for the hours and hours of great content, and to James for his thoughtful advice as always.

I have followed and LOVE James Gurney for years now. Such a knowledgable, gentle, kind, intelligent, talented man. One of my favorites. I am so happy you all had him on this interview. I'm a little behind on watching it =). I have to say I love to TOUCH animals. I don't feel augmentation is the same. Animals are as different as people with personalities that they bring to the table. This is something to be captured. I do like the idea of the schools going online and I feel that could eliminate a lot of school shootings, attitudes, etc. Something together such as families who currently homeschool their kids is all needed. Thank you for sharing this, and having such an icon such as James as a guest.

I just love what he says about emulating your favorite artists until you end up developing your own style. I've arleady been thinking that is such a great idea and it's what I want to do since obviously we're drawn to different artists that we like for a reason. Artists have always done master studies of other artists' work. But on the internet it feels like everyone is always screaming at you to never do that and it's like, wow, how can you not? I'm not saying post something influenced by someone else and take credit - we shouldn't take credit, and we don't have to even post the studies we paint. But it got to a point where I was paranoid about even copying other artists' work in my private sketchbook for practice. So now I just want to do that, and learn from that.

What a great interview. I have had a great experience both with his books but also on a somewhat personal level. I was around 11 or 12 when I became obsessed with dinosaurs again, first because of Jurassic Park, but then because I found Dinotopia at the book store and asked for it for Christmas. In my 20s I let my art skills stagnate somewhat, and then around 2010 began taking an interest with learning all the stuff I neglected growing up. It didn't take long for Google to introduce me to Gurney Journey, and I immediately recognized the art style and was so tickled to learn it was "the guy who made Dinotopia" AND illustrated so many of the Nat Geo magazines that I read as a kid. I sent him an email to express how much I loved Dinotopia as a kid and how I was so happy I had found Gurney Journey, never expecting any sort of reply. And yet a day later, I had a nice reply from him, thanking me for the nice email and wishing me well. It might not seem like much, but that email helped me realize that my favorite artists were "real people" just like me, and that maybe one day, even as a late artistic bloomer, that I could actually make art for a living. Thanks James! And thank you Stan and Marshall as well, of course!

I know this is a kinda old episode but I'm just going through draftsmen now, and hearing James Gurney talk about being super invested in something for a week or so and then moving on, it really connected to me on a deep level. I've always been so worried that my type of impulsive learning would lead me astray, and that I had to pick one thing and focus on that one thing forever. I've always been a jack of all (creative) trades, but a master of none. This episode was so reassuring. Over the years I'll go from writing to character design, to sewing, to plush making to sculpting all in a matter of months, and its hard to work at one thing continuously, I've never abandoned any of these, but I tend to leave it and come back later. I grew up home-schooled, and my parents have always been very supportive or my creative drive, but I can't afford collage, and even then, the idea of being stuck in one specific category for years learning what everyone else is, feels so limiting.

Right when I started college, I had been drawing a lot as a kid, and was shooting for Pixar, but then I got back advice and didn't pursue drawing anymore. From doing signs, graphic design, to marketing, now back full circle, I'm realizing that I should've been drawing more this whole time. But I think there could be a lot of people in my position, and this video has a ton of key values. Learning Principles and fundamentals is core, and technique and style birth from practicing those components. And my big take away from this video is, you should draw all the time, and stop worrying about your style or being "cool". And then rewatch this video!

I really love James Gurney. I've never thought I could learn art from a book because I have reading issues, so I went from teacher to teacher trying to explain what I aim "drawing something realistically, but this something doesn't exist, on another planet or something", no one got me, then I stumbled upon his book "Imaginative Realism" and that's it, that's what I wanted!!! Right from the title!!! I bought his second book too, "Color and Light", and after reading it - I felt like the world around me changed. And when I need to explain something in art to a kid - there is always a good explanation in those books - with a picture!

In the rrecent documentary about Andrew Wyeth ("Wyeth", 2018 - a must watch in my opinion) it was laid out how his father and master illustrator N.C. Wyeth, basically trained his son Andrew rigorously in the disciplines of drawing, painting and illustration etc. fom an early age much like how a sports coach would train a future olympic athlete. While he certainly found independence from his father's way of making art, I don't think it would be fair to call him self-taught. Otherwise, superb episode.

“MOOCs” - massive open online courses have a huge rate of attrition so the people element is important if you’re not a “lone wolf”. If you are, you still require interaction with others even if it’s only like James in the Natural History Museum and gaining access to the back room. Interaction with people is a huge motivator for all human endeavors.

I mean back when we had to know how to use t-squares and slide rules, and ellipse templates, shading films, actual graphite pencils, 'n stuff. And just for the record here my mom was a Southern California telephone company switchboard operator in the mid-late 1940s, and again into the mid 1970s at St. Luke's Hospital in Pasadena, CA. Always fun listening to today's kids trying to understand stuff that was from the world as it existed before their time.

Thank you so much for doing this. Dinotopia was a favorite of mine growing up, and holds a special place in my heart. Having my own struggles in my art journey, this really helps motivate and inspire me.

I think the best artists (even those that go to art school) are very self directed - and the best teachers drop gems of wisdom that speak to their students for a lifetime. Inspiration is everywhere. I remember Georgia O’Keefe saying that even after her training she had to teach herself a new language because there was no point in doing things other people were doing so well. Such an interesting and inspiring conversation! Thank you! ✨🖌️💖

I agree the old school guys have a way of talking about art that makes me want to listen for hours.
