In this video, we explore the difference between an artist's voice and style, and how understanding these two concepts can help you develop your painting. Also to better appreciate and analyze works of art. We start by defining what is meant by an artist's voice, which encompasses their unique perspective, personal experiences, and artistic intentions. We then distinguish this from an artist's style, which refers to their technique, approach to composition, and the visual elements they use in their work.
?Your Artist's Voice: https://amzn.to/3M7r4vo
Using examples of artists like Monet and Van Gogh, we examine how their distinct voices and styles are reflected in their paintings. We see how Monet's voice was characterized by his deep love of nature and his fascination with light and color, while Van Gogh's voice was defined by his emotional intensity and use of vibrant, expressive color.
Finally, we discuss how an artist's success and recognition are not the only measures of their artistic worth, and how focusing too much on external validation can distract from the development of one's own voice. Instead, we encourage artists to focus on their personal growth and development, seeking inspiration from their own

What can we learn from leaders of the past about coping with stress? Winston Churchill discovered painting during times of personal crisis. It changed his life so much for the better that he fell in love with painting. This pastime stayed with him for the rest of his life. He even wrote a short book about painting called Painting as a Pastime.
In this episode I take a look at interesting discussions raised in this book and how we can adopt the lessons learned by Winston Churchill too. It is an illuminating book and I am fascinated by the common spirit we all share as artists. The Art Spirit.
