Wonderful! Slide show is genius. Thank you Amy!
Love her and her work
I like drawing, its a very special way of being present, sensing whatever is attractive you, and I love the methaphore that drawing is more like a beaver nibbling while they go, and I totally agree that drawing has a weird power and very often feels like magic as looking into unknown dimensions of experience as a synkinaesthetic action - thank you for putting light on drawing - and drawing is also a kind of feeling-caressing 🎶🖤🎵
And I loved to watch all the drawings 😃
I loved this drawing lecture. Thanks for posting. Cheers from São Paulo, Brazil.
There is art in everyone, drawing is making.
And thank you for the theory of drawing where I especially am attracted to the idea of quality as being able to find the breath and expressing the aliveness 🎶🖤🎵
" Painting, what do you need to regain your light?" I love this lecture- brilliant! Thank you
Lagii mo alu ad pe teutoe alu ad moe hoaa
I can draw from the heart and it’s a great release. I can construct images and that had its charm. Then there is the nervous muddling about and subconscious gestural stuff that gives me a stomach ulcer. Respect Amy 👍🏻
I need subtitle ...... please ..

Amy's drawings are free from intentional arrangement and elaboration. She creates her works from her own heart and unconsciousness and does not consider the audience at all. Such works are, in her own words, debatable; on the one hand, because the creator is always true to her own heart, such works often have great energy and unfettered creativity; at the same time, because the audience is not considered at all, the readability of such works is often a great obstacle to their acceptance by the world.
I personally believe that, in the conceptual stage, the author should leave behind the limitations of painting techniques and media and stay creative. When he starts drawing, he should apply his painting skills to make his ideas readable. Because for me, painting is a language, and the language is created to make our communication easier.
Amy's drawings and theories are still experimental. Her art language is trying to tell us something really creative and powerful, but now it’s just somehow not easy for us to understand it without her explanation. I hope that when her theories eventually mature, they will be seen and recognized by more people.

Paper is also already a thing.
Man a lot of these artworks were disturbing.
Huh???? Explain plz.
Sorry but the work is really mediocre.
😅😂😂😂
Why would she be making up fictions about her classmates (dinner mates)...better yet, why are we supposed to be interested in this neurotic stuff going on in her head? ? Artists talk talk talk theses days... way too many verbs.
