Huihan is such a wonderful artist and human. I’ve been a big admirer of his work and teaching the last several years and I’m grateful to be joining him this fall in Utah.
Outstanding art and very interesting personal history. Thank you, gentlemen. Sketching every minute while shopping or pre-plein air etc. Catching figures on the fly is a grand challenge so my book goes in my hip pocket. Nice sketch invention Jeff.
I just got home from a NH to OR camping and painting, 8 week trip. Exhausting. Oddly, I found that the high stress of it depressed my ability to paint. In the evenings, I watched all your episodes that I downloaded (usually I had no service). I learned a lot. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for doing these videos. I realized I was not taught how to paint, though I have a BS in art and an MFA. Self taught, means holes in one’s education. I mean to close them.
Pardon my english but Chinese artist always have such a solid understanding of value and form in their painting especially the ones that studied art in china and it makes their paintings looks a bit simillar (Mian situ, zhaoming wu, Jove wang) but the quality is incoparable to other artists outside of china
1:10 - state select you , they want you to be one of them , pay for your school, and the number is limited because all those students are needed for the communist party to paint their depictions their propaganda, their portraying of successful life. You are not a free artist to paint what you want.
hey Jeff , can you invite Liu and do more episodes just focus on the skill perspective and showcase of unpublished artworks like those color sketches , shed some light on this master

Thank you for such an in-depth interview with this wonderful and inspirational artist.
I honestly think he’s the best living artist. Thanks Jeff. I hope to see one of his paintings in person.
He’s certainly one of them.

Absolutely loved this!!
this was proper, this guy is a titan.
Yes he is
I use spiralbound, sketchbooks ..you can tear out of the sheet quite easily. They have a perforation..
it works well for me.❤
But you can’t use lots of papers 😊😉

Just amazing color and value control. I would have loved to hear some tip on how he achieves that.
I’ll have to get him back someday.
Just started this uhh brings memories of a painful system I grew up same as he is describing
Cultural revolution ??? Isnt that communist revolution ?

Yikes. I’m sorry.

Can we get Huihan on Joe Rogen or Andrew Huberman or something to talk about his health habits because looking that fresh at 72 is astonishing.
