    as an artist myself, I really enjoyed watching you in action. You layed that paint on like Michelangelo! I don"t do lettering very often, and was very impressed!!

    When you over commit to a flourish. Amazing work!

    I have been to several painting seminars in my area for the last 3 years at Fenders custom colours from a guy that says you and another guy Bill Ridell are the best at this technique. And he says he worked at Knott's berry farm with Ed Roth the rat fink guy. I never knew he had a normal job. He says he noticed your work back when he painted race cars. He told us the east coast guys came over and showed us what color was and how to use it a bit differently. So he shows us the west coast style and east coast style. He uses you for his east coast style on lettering and a few others. But I remember you the most. In a few if his seminars he used you as a reference for Airbrush work and lettering. That why I remember your name the most. Every now and then I watch just to refresh my memory.

    All absolutely perfect! (except RIIIIGHT at the end with the spiral making those circles, just a tad much because it went over everything else he'd just done)

    Beautiful! The tail piece on the g was to demonstrate the versatility of the brush to show that it's not only capable of the script but also scroll work.

    • @Druffmaul

      Ah. I was afraid he was having a stroke.

  • @gullreefclub
    @gullreefclub 8 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I have to laugh at everybody hating on the G when I bet nobody who commented would be worthy of cleaning this man's paint brush. Besides the point of the tail on the G was to show you a technique. Wake Up smell the coffee or in this case the paint thinner and awaken your inner artist.

    When I was a bit younger I had a flow like that with my hands. It always felt great to be able to have a steady hand like that. Amazing work... I think he went just a little overboard on the loops at the end, but still amazing.

    Amazing. I said to my wife tonight, "Is it wrong for a man to love another man?"... she said, no.... I've been a lettering freak all my life. I made a video called, ' The Fundamental Rules of Lettering". It's pretty basic, compared to what you're doing, but it shows the basics. Thank you for this. it's amazing.

    I think you do beautiful work, and I’m very glad that
    I found you here. I see that this is an old post, but
    once you learn this Art, you never really stop. I do
    appreciate this whole process since I took Calligraphy,
    and creative Lettering through high school in the good
    ol days. Still use it almost daily! Thank you for sharing
    your gift!

      +David Doyle see, when you get food from a restaurant you can complain, even if you can't do better, but that's why you're there right? Because they can cook (or so, they should be able to). I think that if you comment that you don't like it or they messed up, you shouldn't use that against them. I mean, the dude made a video about calligraphy and 'messed up'.

    No shit though, when you look at the finished product..if you saw a sign with those letters on it, you'd assume they were printed by a computer unless you looked a bit closer. I agree that the G is weird, but he's a veteran of a time when sign painters and the like knew a thousand beautiful letter styles like this one and could finish them off with whatever flourish they chose

  • @jubelet

    Outstanding but overworked that g. His first 3 passes were perfect if he trailed off from there. Perhaps he is showing us how these circular movements flow in movement.

    • @levmyshkin8366
      @levmyshkin8366 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      +Stunami I think the main point was to show that in diluting your ink for flourishing, you can maintain a long thin line and flair it at the end with one stroke.

    • @curiousdilettante396
      @curiousdilettante396 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Yes, because even if one couldn't make calligraphy as good as this
      artist, that by itself doesn't preclude him/her from giving an honest
      opinion about it. You can't play basketball as well as Kobe Bryant;
      should that stop you from laughing at one of his boneheaded moves? Art
      is made for the appreciation of the audience, not the artist himself.
      Otherwise why hold art exhibits? Overly long and non-too-inspiring
      flourishes like that on the "g" ruin the overall coherence of the
      characters.

      Have you tried upstroke instead of downstroke? All lines are pulled bottom to top, easier!
      Lefties should develop their own system and stroke order, it'll take some time but results will be quicker and cleaner than trying to emulate right handed style. Only time right-hand top to bottom lettering works for (also a southpaw) is in reverse glass painting.
