"To be focused and dedicated to doing one simple thing can perhaps be the most transformative thing. That as narrow as it is, it can be infinitely deep." -Louise Despont New in the ART21 "New York Close Up" series: Watch artist Louise Despont create intricate pencil-on-paper drawings using architectural stencils in her home and studio in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. #art #art21 #LouiseDespont #drawing
It's important to stay on one path. So many Art students want to jump into Every Medium. They waste years. It's like not knowing who you are or want. Very Pretty Art by Despont
Had to watch a video about her drawings for a college art discussion assignment. I am so glad I did. I love that she uses stencils. Her work makes me feel inspired.
Yeah, painting was (is still) more highly regarded than drawing. Drawing being more personal, more private, where you can see the mistakes, the searching, the exploration. I can relate to what she said about filling sketchbooks. They become your journals. Beautiful work and very engaging video. 👏
Not meant to come across as an insult, some of her work has the look of wallpaper designs. Others resemble mandalas; while. others are reminiscent of, or evoke Aborigine dreamtime art.
Assistants are so common...always were, even in the middle ages. Some contribute more then others of course, but co-artist. I dont know. Hope she gets paid well though.
How come she can draw so complicated figures yet they resonate some kind of peaceful harmony, amazing

This was really well done, and I was able to watch at just the right time for me. Thank you!

This is my favorite artvideo, which I have looked at many times by now.
I really enjoy to find gifted young people doing their own thing in life.
Fascinating work, so happy to see another artist enchanted with the old ledgers.
the thoughtfulness expressed and how it renders as art is really impressive.

Rule no.1 I was told on Art class is:you do NOT use rulers, stencils etc. when drawing.
Dude, an artist makes his/her own rules.
Not meant to come across as an insult, some of her work has the look of wallpaper designs. Others resemble mandalas; while. others are reminiscent of, or evoke Aborigine dreamtime art.
And here I thought using stencils was cheating.....and having an assistant? Should bump her up to co artist.
Assistants are so common...always were, even in the middle ages. Some contribute more then others of course, but co-artist. I dont know. Hope she gets paid well though.
same artist with her colonial gaze !
Sounds like you have a Cultural Marxist gaze.
Ridiculous
