It's interesting, a lot of Hopper's paintings don't evoke isolation and loneliness in me. I think it's more like what you were talking about with airports and the like - those silences that are okay between people, or the moments to yourself when you're just .... there. Maybe you're thinking about something, but maybe you're just in that comfortable state where there is no demand on you, nothing is preoccupying you, you can just sit and breathe. I definitely got the same vibe from your figure in the doorway, I enjoyed the lack of detail so that the viewer will probably fill in a book or a phone or nothing at all based on their own tendencies. I found this video very inspiring, thank you. I'm going to go draw now. :)

The more lonely you are in life, the more you start to see Edward Hopper's works as normal living.

I don’t paint. But now I feel like I want to. I recently found a box of Crayola’s “Coulours of the World” on sale in the half-off bargain bin at my local grocery store. Something about a box full of nothing but possibe skin tones intrigued me…so I bought a full box of the other 64 colors to go with it, and I found a skein of expensive watercolour paper in the donation bin at the food pantry I work at, so I’m thinking of getting a nice black ink pen and seeing what happens. I’m a musician mostly, but we’ll see.

Wow, Sam! I absolutely loved this video essay! I do, however, think that you do yourself a disservice when you call these works studies. I feel they're works in and of themselves.... They're simply works in a particular style that you possibly wouldn't have considered for what you would have called a more finished piece in the past. As a series, I think they're marvelous, to be honest....

Thanks for the feedback! Perhaps you're right, it's hard to know what's appropriate when presenting my own work alongside someone like Hopper. Thanks for the support
@Day245 жыл бұрын
@@samhamper You say alongside.... I say that you made a beautiful video essay showing what your inspiration was for the works you show. Not once did I think you were comparing yourself with another artist. And you have no need to, you're a good artist in your own right, on your own artistic journey. Please keep sharing your journey with us!

What if his paintings have no message or intentional depiction of loneliness? What if they are just paintings and they are pulling out the loneliness that exists within yourself.

Sam, Edward Hopper was on the autism spectrum. He had what, until recently, was referred to as Asperger's. I figured it out by seeing how the people in his works do not make eye contact with each other, and by the sense of isolation.
