Also, take into consideration Chuck Close did portraits of many people who ultimately became famous like Francesco Clemente and Elizabeth Murray (shown at the beginning of your vid). He had dealers and knew the right people (like you have said). He has the "stuff"; he focused, and overcame multiple disabilities too! Art business success can be very complicated!
Thanks Rodney for the advice. Focus is the key. You can have pseudonyms like some Japanese artists (I'm not sure which ones though). Chuck Close is great!
Chuck close is my favorite artist....I enjoyed your vid discussing him. I only wished to see more of his work. I wish someone would post a vid strickly visuals of his paintings.
Lots of great information, lots of "ums" and "uhhhs" rambling, almost hard to watch but good honest info by an ardent man. But needs better prep could cut a 10 min video to 3
Nice presentation. Im currently studying on a fine art degree and i also love close's images. Most of my art is close inspired and also the 60s and 70s american realist movement as a whole. Your presentation has actually helped me, in focussing in on my desired subject, "the cropped face". anyway thanks alot for this video it was really well done.
The new art channel of yours is absolutly great Rodney, u really are talented in ur field of work and giving lectures! You should be an Art teacher you know! Cant wait for the next installment good luck with it all anyway...
Awesome, thank you for this! Yeah, "sleeping on it" (being a dreamer, too) seems to be a great idea. And I looooove Chuck Close, I did some experiments in his style a few years ago; I really want to mess around with that style again one of these days. :) I agree about the business end of things; and coming from a family of entrepreneurs, yeah, a business sense is definitely crucial, or at least knowing someone who can help with that end of things. Take care!
Thanks, This actually helps alot :) I should also mension that although i do fashion, paintings my real passion, so using that as an example helped. I also saw Chucks work in person while it was passing through the high museum of art in atlanta one time, so i thought that was pretty cool. Great video.
What could I do to make art more a part of peoples everyday lives?
