Saul Leiter's photography sometimes look more like AbEx paintings than photography. In this video we explore his famous colour photographs and compare them to the paintings of Rothko, Clyfford Still, Robert Motherwell, Sam Francis, Joan Mitchell and more. Were they inspired by each other? Or do they just follow very similar aesthetic ideas? At the end of the video we extract a number of lessons we can apply to our own development as artists or photographers. Including how to learn to see like Saul Leiter.This content is primarily created to act as inspiration and education for creative souls who want to study, research and learn from iconic creative works and their creators.

Why are there so few, if any, iconic or standout watercolour artworks in the history of art? Or am I wrong? As I hunt for the 3 most significant and impactful watercolour paintings of all time, I find the answer. And it turns out I'm wrong. Wrong in my assumption that perhaps watercolours sometimes are seen as a bit of the 'underdog' of the fine art mediums. In fact what I DO find, will delight you if you're a fan of watercolour painting. Join me as I unravel the historic status of watercolour and arrive at the answer as to why the 3 artists featured, used watercolours to find their art sweet spot. #creativeprocess #artistdevelopment #artinspiration #watercolour #artmethod This content is primarily created to act as inspiration and education for creative souls who want to study, research and learn from iconic creative works and their creators.

At first glance it might look like the New York school masters of the big, bold, abstract thick black line, Robert Motherwell and Franz Kline, were painting in exactly the same way. It turns out that instead of being similar, they are in fact, complete opposites. In this video we reveal their opposing methods and figure out how totally different methods, can arrive at something visually quite similar. Main music theme by Lester Barnes.

In a world of Ai gloss and perfection, 2026 needs to re-learnFrom Robert Rauschenberg and his Monogram.Rauschenberg placed a rubber tire around a taxidermy goat’s midsection to shatter the boundary between canvas and life. Let’s examine this defiant "Monogram" to prove that true innovation requires trashing the rulebook and ignoring the established artworld. By merging junk with high art, Rauschenberg validated his messy, rebellious instinct to prioritise authenticity over traditional ‘perfection.’ Let’s learn why perfection, logic and painting INSIDE the box is boring.

'My child could've painted that!' is a phrase you hear from time to time in regards to art that at first glance seem too simple or too weird. But don't dismiss Cy Twombly too quickly. In my view he's an incredibly inspiring artist. One that takes time to understand perhaps but once you do, you'll love. Or at least this video will help you understand how Twombly, but just changing his visual language ever so slightly, managed to turn himself from New York art -world outsider, to celebrated superstar artist. With his art shifting from not selling at all, to selling for tens of millions of dollars.

Basquiat is an iconic artist for a number of reasons. But one of the most intriguing is his varied and often complex visual language. In this video I take a deep dent dive into that visual language and explore the meaning behind the many symbols Jean-Michel Basquiat used repeatedly. What do they mean? Why did he paint them? And why does the Basquiat crown stand head and shoulders above the other symbols? One thing’s for sure, the Basquiat crown certainly isn’t about royalty. Which is why it’s an iconic symbol that played a major role in redefining who matters in the established art world.This content is primarily created to act as inspiration and education for creative souls who want to study, research and learn from iconic creative works and their creators.

While Frida Kahlo’s self-portrait ‘The 2 Fridas’ is arguably her most famous, ‘Self-portrait with Thorn Necklace’ is certainly her most intriguing. The symbolism she uses in this work of art is more difficult to decipher and offers several ways to interpret. Making this, potentially, Frida Kahlo’s most iconic self-portrait. Explore with me the emotional and historical backdrop to why Frida chose to use these specific symbols and what various different ways we can choose to interpret them. Let’s peel away the many hidden layers of these symbols and arrive, as close as we can, to the truth of what Frida herself actually felt as she created this visual icon.This content is primarily created to act as inspiration and education for creative souls who want to study, research and learn from iconic creative works and their creators.

Keith Haring was an American artist who invented his own graffiti-style using chalk, before developing his own line-based visual language on canvas and in sculpture. He grew from street artist to major artist during the 1980s New York city. Today, he's as much known for being an activist as an artist. In this video I'll explore deeper what few others here have done. His perhaps most famous figure.
