I stopped doing art after college because teachers in high schooled college said my art wasn't good. I always loved the classes because I felt free no matter how bad my paintings were...but Those critiques hurt terribly and I stopped doing it the I got out of college. I cried during this talk. I AM going back to doing art, because it's fun for me, to heck with what those who taught be said! And I am just 70!
i also just started doing art again, my parents said art dont feed me, so i have stopped doing it for a while. but this covid has really gave me time to start my art again. Go Chris, do what u feel is fun for u=)
I'm 66 and decided to set my art spirit free last year. I cleared out a spare room which is now a room of chaos of art supplies including rocks I gather on the beach and twigs I gather on my walks. I go in, close the door, turn up my favorite music, and see what emerges ... I now have walls covered in all sorts of drawings, paintings, mixed media. I look at my walls and think, "Wow. Where has that been hiding all these years?" I've been introducing my 5 year old grandson to getting messy with art and we hang every one of his paintings too! I love Charlie's message of, "It's fine to make a mess and a very brave thing to do."
When I came home w my first painting, at 10, of a church, in acrylic, my first art class, my dad said “it doesn’t matter that the lines were crooked, it’s art class”. His saying that told me that it did matter. I hadn’t noticed they were crooked. I was so proud to have a painting on canvas first it was charcoal drawing. My mom said, you can still see the charcoal but maybe you’re not finished yet. I was finished. It took me until menopause to paint again. Parents can be joy killers even if their intention is to instruct. Allow joy!
it’s amazing how the idea of the mess really shines through him. Like - he came in late, unprepared and just said what he had to say - a very simple thought but he was wandering his own thoughts during the talk, telling some stories, bringing the dogs, I’ve never seen a ted talk like this before. the talk was an actual mess, and that’s what he came to say and I LOVE that. Also if you haven’t read his book I really really recommend it. It’s healing, kind and heartwarming and truly makes you feel worth something.
I listened to this Ted talk with interest, I already really liked his work and hearing him speak made sense of how he is able to pack so much emotion into his drawings. I loved the connection with messiness and creativity, also the importance of keeping imagination alive, it can have so many helpful uses for our wellbeing, and facilitate creative thinking in other areas of life.
Aaron Rodgers sent me to Charlie's book, and he is truly an inspiration. Takes 5-10 mins to read Charlie's book. This Ted talk is 15 mins. I haven't cried so much in 20 minutes since my Grandma died. Such a beautiful human
I have never cried so much from a Ted talk. It made me realized that we all repress that inner mess. Instead of embracing it like the child crying out for its mother. May I embrace the mess of a self. May I love the mud because without mud there is no lotus.
This inspired me to think about everything I delayed, gave up or cancelled out without even trying once, just because I was afraid of being judged. It feels like a big loss somehow. But there are still enough years left before I have to go. Thank you, Charlie. You are an angel for me.
I never gave up. People didn’t quite like that about me. But that’s what we all go through. Not everyone will support you. Some will say mean things sometimes. When you succeed you must be grateful for what they taught you. I’m a esthetician and massage therapist and double caregiver to my mom and son and convinced my partner we should buy my parents house. He had a warm home to be when he battled cancer and beat it. Winter time by a warm fire and health was a blessing. My son has autism and was third time on the honor roll!
What a beautiful old soul. He has ascended and understands the absolute need for love, forgiveness, hope and compassion. He has lived many times and he has reached the higher realms of our loving God, Source, and the Christ. His messages in his movie and book show how far for the Heart ❤️ he has achieved. He is “Epic In Humanity”
Just saw Mr. Mackesy accept a Bafta Award today for his animated film, The Boy the Mole the Fox and the Horse. He gave his acceptance speech & I just said, What a lovely man. I see I was right.
I absolutely LOVE everything about this man!!! His book, his art style, the movie, his talks. A genuine loving human being with a heart and soul of gold♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️❤️
Yes. We go crazy trying to build symmetries, intricacies, and ideals into things, and messiness always works its way in. Not to say we shouldn't keep trying, but to a point we also need to embrace the symmetries, intricacies, and ideals that work their way into every mess, even if it's only our personal perception that puts them there--if we can just show that, we can convey quite a bit.
You know what. I am going to buy some drawing journals, draw and write a story and post them on the Tube. I mean, why NOT? It's a creative outlet, and this guy inspired me to. Thank you.
I think I have just fallen in love with Charlie... what a beautiful heart and mind. I have been trying to write my life story with a 'twist'... thank you Charlie for renewing my 'courage' with HOPE... I will just keep trying, even if it's 'messy'....blessings, Liz
Me too, I just bought the book, and then today have now discovered his talk. Literally adore what he says and how he says it. Cleverness, humility, gentleness and generosity shines through.
I absolutely love Charlie's talk and in my opinion as a not-very-prolific artist who struggles all the time he has 'nailed' it when he says 'Just make a mess!' (Jane Tredinnick)
I teach Christian iconography and tell those in our workshops all the time that there are no mistakes. Icons are prayers and everyone's comes out different - that's where the Divine shows up. A member of our painting community sent this to me and he's right on! A wonderful testimony to shutting up that inner critic. We need more mess making in our hurting world.
I love this talk!! I teach kindergarden and the kids are constantly saying "mine is better than yours." Wow, 5 and 6 years old... already afraid to enjoy marking on paper. I remember a time when I loved drawing so much, it was my existance. Ive feel lost, lately. I want to keep doing this thing I loved so much... I used to draw horses all day, every day. I have a young family now and my spark has been misplaced in all the busy, rushing around. Ill find it again. Its a transition. Just ordered charlies book. Cant wait to read it!
I gave up drawing many years ago, even though it was the thing I loved best in the world, and it has been so hard to begin again for fear that I might not be able to do it after all. Listening to you describing drawing from the heart has mase me want to try afresh and I wanted to say thank you.
Gorgeous talk. How brave it is to make a mess - be fearless and daring in that - and of that will come yourself. Maybe even beauty and joy. Thank you, Charlie.
I am so moved by this man’s message! As a person who only ever wanted to be an artist and went through art school...always self-conscious in a perfectionist’s prison, I can be brave and make more messes now! I want to hug him❣️🤗
Love love loooooooooove his speaking voice. I listened to him narrating his book on the bbc sounds app and now that it’s no longer there, I am here to get more of his voice. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I hope that many of us get to hear and see more of you- you truly are a gift! Thank you for your inspiring words and message. Today I feel like a can start being my own inspiration. God bless you Charlie. ♥️
I opened a paint your own ceramic shop years ago. It was for all ages. It was the adults that got uptight. I remember one particular man, an attorney. He had come for a Christmas party given by his office, to paint ceramic ornaments. By accident he had held his ornament upside down and was absolutely devastated when he got it back after it was fired and realized his mistake. I think a lot of the adults have been told at some point that their art was no good. I’ve heard stories of teachers who absolutely leveled some students to the point where they were just stunted in this area.
I’m in awe...a genuinely lovely man with an amazing skill and such a great way of communicating. I’ve listened to this again and again...it’s fine to make mess.
Thank you. Your book has helped me begin to heal. I will endeavor to find my courage, and share what I may offer to help others as well. Thank you so much ✌️
Charlie is just a beautiful human being, I would like to learn and be more like him, that beautiful creative mind that we lose, but is so important….now where are my crayons 😁
The messages here are profound, and all the better for not being told in the usual TED formulaic style. Instead they are told from the heart, thank you @charliemackesy5342 As one who was told "art is not my thing" as a child, I look forward to finding time to make a mess. If not through art then in other exploratory ways; my work and research focusses on the Imposter Syndrome (technically a phenomenon) where there is a strong desire to be perfect, do our best and get things right first time. It can be hard to let go of a lifetime of operating one way, but it can also be liberating. Starting to embrace mistakes, learning (not failing), showing vulnerability and thereby creating connection is a very healthy way forward for 2023 and beyond. With thanks to Charlie ❤
I love to draw and I've been happy with some of my work. Although a day doesn't go by in which I don't think about drawing, I haven't drawn in years. In the past couple of weeks I have gotten an idea about some drawings that I must do and water color. Thank you for this.
I have aged but not grown up I cry in most happy or sad occasions/situations I color outside the lines I live inside my heart I make mistakes I give thanks and apologize I bathe in the creativity and freedom of the mud The world needs more of the likes of Charles Macksey In the most positive way I’ll end with a quote that has been of help for me, ‘It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society’.
@@charliemackesy5342 I’d like to reply to you, Charlie. I was given your book from my bestie a while ago. It has become the divine present I give,to others, no matter how young, no matter how aged. I should probably just keep a shelf of them at the ready. Everything about you and your writing appears charming and maybe, a little bit messy. I find it the most joyful, anyway. Thank you for your kind response. D
@@charliemackesy5342 so Charlie, I live in a place where the town motto was, ‘Bluffton a State of Mind’, just over the bridge inland from Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. It once was incredibly charming, unspoiled, haven for aquatic life along the May River, underdeveloped and peaceful. However, for those of us here long enough to remember those lazy days most are saddened by the short amount of time commerce and transplants all but bulldozed the area and it is all quite different now. So that’s my pity party. Onto the people. Charlie, probably no different than any other tourist spot with an eclectic mix of characters, some you wish to know, some you do not. The kind ones attract me as those I wish to know. We really need it now as the world’s seemingly gone mad and kindness has been of short supply. I’ll stop now. Oh, listened to the audio book today. It was pure oxygen. Thank you-D
I'd like to plug The Art of Doubt by Metric here. It's one of my favorite albums and its title is referring to the art of knowing when to proceed and when to second guess, very pertinent to this video's topic.
Charlie this is a beautiful speech. One very important factual correction: it’s not a Polish concentration camp. It’s a German concentration camp set up by Nazis in Poland, a country occupied by Germany at that time.

Mess is usually more authentic than perfection. 'Art IS therapy' is my mantra; it makes us whole by aknowledging the wonder of life from within.
Yes. We go crazy trying to build symmetries, intricacies, and ideals into things, and messiness always works its way in. Not to say we shouldn't keep trying, but to a point we also need to embrace the symmetries, intricacies, and ideals that work their way into every mess, even if it's only our personal perception that puts them there--if we can just show that, we can convey quite a bit.
I’m in love....I saw his work first and was already smitten. Then to hear him, so gentle and kind. Beautiful man, inside and out.
Wonderful speech with an important message for our times. His likability is off the charts!
He radiates sincerity and humanity .

As one who was told "art is not my thing" as a child, I look forward to finding time to make a mess.

Starting to embrace mistakes, learning (not failing), showing vulnerability and thereby creating connection is a very healthy way forward for 2023 and beyond.
