No. It has nothing to do with your idea. It's just a collage. Pure and simple.

In elementary school I was, along with a few other students,one of the best artists in my whole class.I would stay in indoors for recess some times just so I could work on a project.When the other kids would come back to class they would gather around my desk to see what I was doing.I got a lot of oohs and ahhs from the students. 'how do you that, it's amazing? I would say "I don't know, I just do, it's a natural talent, I guess.'

Downvoted because of the music. Tutorials are enough on their own with the voiceover. The music alienates a lot of people. There are many who will be triggered by sensory overload from the visual, voice and music. It's such a shame because it's an interesting video. If I, or someone else doesn't mention it, then video creators aren't aware of the problem and can't do something to help in future videos.
@FrankCurkovicАй бұрын
To each their own I guess. Some tend to think the low background music is is necessary. Thanks for the comment.

I hadn't heard of Hi-Fructose and just subscribed! I randomly came across a documentary of Robert Williams a few years ago and have been a huge fan of Juxtapose ever since. You did an excellent job of weaving together the styles and artists and presented it clearly. That's not easy.

Honestly, I would compare pop surrealism with the devil trying to draw cartoons. Most artworks done by these artists are just _wrong_ and feel vulgar and just not cool. They don't pass the vibe check. Take Mark Ryden for example, who consistently paints literal naked children in his paintings. Nobody ever talks about that ever or criticizes it. Pop surrealism is perverted, misguided, and low moral, and it's a shame, because as a cubist who uses expressionism, I see the charm that could've been being constantly tarnished by artists whose inappropriate fetishes manifested into their art.
@FrankCurkovicАй бұрын
Hmm...I'm not sure what the "vibe check" means and haven't really considered your thoughts before. I get, understand your views and opinions and welcome them. Why not? To each their own. However, the term low-brow did refer to fringe art, hence the title. One essay by Carlo McCormick has a quote that sums of Ryden pretty well: "Mark Ryden does not celebrate evil, even it's its most campy denatured form. Quite to the contrary, his art-making can be seen as an elaborate charade of avoidance towards life's grimmer realities. His is an utterly pure infantilistic escapism." (source: www.markryden.com/at-play-in-the-slaughterhouse-of-american-pop#:~:text=Mark%20Ryden%20does%20not%20celebrate,an%20utterly%20pure%20infantilistic%20escapism.) I do like your line "the devil trying to draw cartoons." Thanks for sharing your thoughts and taking the time to comment.

Couldn't you just start with a pencil drawing directly on the lino and then ink it over once perfect? Why bother with the previous 3 or 4 steps? Thanks for the video. Getting into printmaking recently.
@FrankCurkovic3 ай бұрын
Some harder lino will hold pencil marks, but at times they are sometimes hard to erase. I used a softer type of lino and drawing on it is a little harder.

Thank you for taking the time to create this video, it is very informative. My question: what kind of marker do you use to go over the pencil marks on the lino that will not wash away when you wash off each printing ink? Does it interfere with the printing ink at all?
@FrankCurkovic3 ай бұрын
Hi, the marker should be a permanent marker like a Sharpie, not a water based one. The marker will not affect the print. Good luck!

Dear Mr. Frank, thank you for the post How to improve in drawing. I am an amateur, I draw and paint for pleasure and relaxation. I started a few years ago with Zentagle drawing and right hemisphere drawing. Subsequently, I discovered courses for adults, where I attended for watercolor and still attend for oil painting. I tried collage, graphic printing, gel plate printing, figure sketching. Now I am very interested in linocut. I am currently in a crisis phase where I would like to move from drawing and painting based on photographs to my own subjects, but somehow I can't think of topics. Maybe that's why I enjoy finding different methods of creative activity. That's why I'm also looking for different videos and that's how I came to your KZfaq channel. Maybe it looks like I'm "jumping from one to the other", but I really enjoy it :-). Watching your video stroked my soul very much and spoke to me. I realized that my wayfinding and trying different methods was actually okay, and that maybe it was more important than the goal itself. Thank you for the opportunity to watch your videos, which I am really looking forward to and I believe I will get a lot out of them. I wish you much success in your work. Marta
