I love these videos and your undeniable and dear enthusiasm while talking about these works and these artists! Thank you so much for the consistently brilliant content
A lot of fun facts in this video, like Renoit's cat's hair being used to date his work. I would like to learn more about Leonor Fini, and Leonard Foujita. I've seen both of their works before, but haven't really delved in. Funny, in analog fine art parlance it's common to refer to an artist's "practice" as if they are a lawyer. I never use it, and it always sounded funny to me because, as an artist, it sounds like it's one of your "practice pieces" and not one where you are attempting something more serious. Meanwhile, in the NFT community, they never use the word "practice", but instead everything is a "project". I also never use this phrase, as it refers primarily to very large collections of digital images created by programs. I just use "art" and "artwork". I don't want art to be subordinated, as it so often is, to either whatever politics are the flavor of the day, or whatever brand of economics. That's just me, though.
Fair enough! I typically use it in an effort to avoid saying “art” and “artwork” too many times. Fini and Foujita are both fascinating characters, definitely worth looking into!
Meow very entertaining and thankyou! I have painted cats occasionally (thumbnail) but my black beasty hates me and I'm sure is plotting my demise, and yes I have "that" book confirming all the signs are there.
Purr-fectly fascinating anthology (though please leave the SC door ajar for Nicolas Bentley's illustrations to Old Possum's 1939 poetic tribute). Ta and may all enjoy another nine lives! mb
wait 22? that means there 42 from adding ur previous vid babe. (i can do math.) why artist love cat so much. cat feeling hurt brain man hurt sad need art
This writing is too much, lol, like a cross between Letterkenny and Dr. Seuss. I started watching the Zdzisław Beksiński video, but I wanted to see if there were some artists I liked more. Rather than than, I clicked on cats. Not even a cat person. Do not regret it at all.

I am so happy I discovered this channel
So are we!!
Awesome! I just finished watching the biopic about Louis Wain on Prime. He obviously wasn't the only one with a cat fixation!
2:30 "Floof spoofs" lmao
Amazing video! Can we please have a dog version? 😍
HI, EVERYBODY! MY ARTWORKS ARE FEATURED AT THE END OF THIS WONDERFUL VIDEO
Now you gotta do one for man’s best friend 💖
Hoping you include Aleksandra Waliszewska in your next one.

Ha! They certainly are delightfully devious little creatures 😼
😻👍
I was wondering why there's a surge of cat vids in my feed today. It's National Cat Day in Japan today.
Ah cool! We didn’t even know that, just a coincidence. Glad we could contribute to the celebrations! 😺
Right after talking about Sultan the cat in the painting, we see Sultan still going alive and well posed for this video :D
Maybe our little Jimmy is Sultan’s great great great great grandson 🤷🏻♀️
That's what i thought aswell! It's so crazy how alike they are😳
I think you missed cat daddy Klimt
And his famous cat, “Katze”!
Cat paintings freak meowt.
Touché!
Purr-fectly fascinating anthology (though please leave the SC door ajar for Nicolas Bentley's illustrations to Old Possum's 1939 poetic tribute). Ta and may all enjoy another nine lives! mb
Many thanks! We’ll have to keep them in mind for a future part 2 😺
Japanese cats often have short or even rabbit -like tails.
Cat paintings make catatonic.
I don't trust people that don't like cats😒😋
