I always thought the best strategy to earn money with abstract art is to make a few pieces, pay some ppl a bunch of money that they buy it from you for 500k - 2mil and then try to sell some pics for real.
Here's a real tip for ya. "People believe in their eyes" Supermarkets don't buy organic cucumbers that may look deformed because people believe they suck, however a manufactured chemically changed cucumber that has a great green color and has the perfect shape will always sell first off the shelves
Always has been. Look at Kanye and his clothing line. Look at the Met Gala. The ugliest shit ever, but because there's a certain name attached to it, "oh it's gorgeous." Full of shit
@@cloudshifterbut even or conception on what a “good cucumber” looks like comes from what we were taught; We didn’t intrinsically look at a deformed cucumber and go “nope, not green enough. Needs more chemicals”. Thats learned behavior from multiple decades/centuries of social engineering. We don’t believe the chemical-filled cucumber to be better because we “just trust our eyes”, we believe it to be better because we were told it WAS better so many times that now we innately believe it
@@shantakidd6230 yea ik, proving my point exactly, he trying to sell it as a challenge. it isn’t a challenge if he’s posting it on yt, ofc it’s gonna sell 💀
Good intentions but im pretty sure thats not the best thing he can do with that money, im not saying that he doesn't has to donate it but, really is way more efficient invest it and make more, when that 100 becomes 1000 then he can donate those 100 or even more if he wants to.
As someone who actually learned about how abstract art is made, yes it is hard to sell. A lot of people who made abstract art had to become famous through regular art first. An example of an artist who made abstract art that criticized this was Marcel Duchamp. His abstract art was famous but when he pretended to be someone else and presented his new work as that fake person, the media hated it until he published a letter that prasied the work. Abstract art also needs to have different factors like a focal point (negative space aint a focal point), balance, unity, space, movement, etc. It's called the principles of elements and design and that shit was hard to figure out when we had to make abstract art for class. So many students cried 😭
There are parallels with Duchamp’s story and how this video played out. It wouldn’t have sold if he didn’t post about it from a platform where he already had a following. Absolutely no interest until his own letter was published… But Duchamp’s actually starts an interesting conversation and this guy is just sacrificing the integrity of his video.
You can talk it fancy all you want. At the end of the day you and all your friends know that youre just doing it to scam rich people. You know that your art isnt anything special and has no meaning, but you still pretend like it does.
@@askatuproductions yes but my point is I am not convinced the purchaser thought the painting was worth a $100 because the poster painted it.

The thing people like him don't get is that art has intent. If your intent is 'I wanted to see if it sells well' and doesn't go any further than that, it's nor gonna be good art, no matter how much skill you have. You can express very powerful ideas through simple means and still make good art. If you just splatter paint on a canvas and that it's no different to what artists do that take their craft seriously, then you just admit you're not willing to engage with it on a honest, intellectual level

It's actually not a bad piece. It's balanced, it has a certain energy and enthusiasm. Try it again, but DON'T take that guys advice, except about color. I would say do one stroke, let it sit for a day, then do another stroke of paint etc. Stop before you feel you are done and don't fill up the canvas.
Honestly this IS art, you had such a whimsical childlike wonder and joy creating it that the piece holds meaning, cause you had a good time making it :]
Art is all about expressing yourself and the act of creating, and as corny as it sounds, about having fun and enjoying what you do. Modern art is a valid form of art. The only problem I have with modern art is what it sells for compared to other much more skillful and delibarate art.
@matthewmaldonado9698 I agree. Art has been commodified in recent times to an honestly disgusting degree, with ai art and people thinking all modern art or art in galleries holds no meaning because of the reputation it has for only being made to be sold, not to express any personal feelings or hold any emotional significance to the artists experiences, or the experiences of the viewer. Art can be about lots of things, enjoying the experience and making something that you think is pretty or fun or interesting to look at, making a piece that hold great emotional value or significance to a potential viewer and the artist, sharing experience and empathizing with others through creation. I wish people could at least take meaning from examining the meaning of art in galleries, even if the meaning they glean from it doesn't resonate with them, it's still meaningful to try and understand the complicated emotions of others through what they create. And it's meaningful that every viewer will have a different experience viewing the piece, art is thought provoking by nature, and it sucks that alot of people assume most modern art is so shallow :[
I think the main criticism of modern art shouldn’t be that it’s “pointless” or “an effortless mess” (although in some cases it’s arguable), the issue is that auctions and other ways of commodifying essentially make it a matter of who has more prestige or essentially just a luck draw on who can make money from it
@douglaspantz read my reply to the other person who replied to me!!! I agree that modern art isn't all effortless or meaningless, it's mostly the publics perception of what constitutes as 'real art' But alot of people choose not to try to understand the process behind art or the possible interpretations or meaning of any given piece because of how art has become a commodity, I see lots of people making modern art out to be simple or easy to make without really considering why it was made in the first place, it discredits art as a whole to think that art is worthless or has no point if it's objectively simpler to make

@@ByteMe908no it isn’t, the intention and meaning were there from the start, what really matters is who made it and how much money people can launder by buying the piece lol
@@melonytoni9016 It jumped in price because he made a community post on youtube asking his 1 million subscriber audiance to check it out and apparently someone there had $100 to throw away.
I hope you had fun! I don't get why art like that gets so famous, but part of what makes art fun is how easy it is to make something you can be proud of :]
Art isn’t just about how it looks, it can be about expression! And that expression doesn’t have to translate to the piece, it can just be the fun you had in making it ☺️ I think a lot of people don’t understand that
u can make art for urself and have it be meant to be shared with the world but to say art isnt supposed to be expressive and is meant to make other ppl feel stuff is insane, mf i make art for myself
Thats so cap lmao, art is about translating your feelings to the viewer, both process and result matters, my guy u never had any art education or mentor did u? Your view of art is so childish. What u talking about is called doodling, not "Creating art".
People forgetting the point of painting is to express emotions thought unconventional works, every art trend being made to diss the old art trend, that’s how art works
As an art student, I think it looks pretty good. If someone wants to buy it, it means they view it as art even if you dont. He seems like he had fun, and that's all that matters sometimes.
Genuinely asking, why are you an art student? Like, I understand that you may enjoy painting or drawing or w/e, but 9/10 you ain't paying the bills with it, most aren't becoming a picasso or an van gogh.
There are many ways to make money, not just through freelance work. More specifically, I want to be a graphic designer, someone who works as an artist for a company to loam out to bigger corporations. Like an art hitman. For example, the person who made the Nike logo is still probably living off the money he got from that, if not still getting money. Art is my passion, and I won't lie, I'm pretty good at it, so why wouldn't I become an artist!?
Keep in mind abstract doesn't always mean it's not made with intention, when most artists do abstract they already have an idea of the composition, colors, textures among others, even then it doesn't guarantee it's gonna get sold
Wrong. It's bullshit. You can look at a trash bin and enjoy its composition for free if you really like that. Everyone knows expensive art is just money laundering and tax evasion and asset transfer.
@@unheilbarabstract is a big umbrella term, you've got those rich schmucks who get away with selling garbage, or picasso (a person who could have easily done realism, you can see his other paintings) who actually knew what he was doing
My mom dose this as her way of therapy to help her relax in the house. And when i be looking at all of the canvases, they look like something from a museum. And all she dose is just splatter em on. I love it!
I have to say, I really like thefinished painting. the stickigure looks so happy and content. I see a woman in a blue dress with purple hair dancing. I really don't like modern art but this one... somehow it makes me feeling things
Yea but this guy just kinda made with the idea “oh this is easy, it doesn’t even have to look good, it’s abstract” but that’s not what it’s about 😭 I hate it when ppl say “oh I could’ve made that” cus the beauty of abstract art is in the expression of the concept, not the technical execution
Make a good draeing Dragging cup with gray colour, Make inside the circle 75% gray, other things that are like ----• like the fire use orange/purple/yellow/red or smth, Make black holes with a cent then full it with black colour in the meteor, stars, if u have black/dark blue or like black, dark blue then purple and loop then thats even better but yes u will have good art
I think most forms of art people critique for being "easy" or "stupid" dont realise that it actually is a skill. You need to have good control of your movement in order to create appealing patterns, you need to understand what colours look nice with eachother, etc. It takes time and effort - and of course, passion. The more excited and invested you are, the more that will shine through & give the art life. It doesn't have to be "good" to be appreciable.
FIRST OF ALL BEFORE ANY OF YALL COMMENT ANYTHING: I’m glad he had fun! I’m super glad he made money, I’m super glad he got to try a hand at art :). This is art. I’m an artist, and though it’s not my field, I’m gonna have to step in for defense of abstract art. Yes, I agree that some of it is straight bootycheeks and I feel myself die a little every time I’m reminded about those TikTok swirly paintings that get thousands of dollars (I’m doing art for the passion, but DAYUM.), but abstract art IMO (if you’re really trying) is one of the hardest painting mediums. Abstract means ya take away almost everything except the basic elements of art but still have to portray something/give meaning (at least the ones I found interesting). One buddy of mine did a piece on colonization (he’s Zapotec) using patterns and different colors, and just,,, EUGH so good. Abstract art somehow gets to this primal feeling that you can’t quite portray in regular illustration.
@@Sure_You_Betcha Sure bro, can I see your degree in arts? You know, abstract art is totally not simplyfying something as much as possible, totally not...
@Omega754CZ degree in arts... 🤣 Ah, I see the problem... You have a degree useless people get. And you're right. There is an argument that "abstract art" can be good (see Van Gogh), it's a different take on reality. How modern absract art, where it's just blobs, or splattering where it relies on the "emotions of the artists while creating it" isn't art. It's a tax write-off with no real monetary or social value. The average absract art, especially modern absract art, is the attempt of an artist who has either run out of ideas or is talentless to be deep and philosophical... That or it's a tax write-off so they can make oodles of money for flinging paint like a toddler or painting a few shapes on a canvas.
@@Sure_You_Betcha You are out of your mind bro. First, I don't have a degree in arts, I'm working on my degree in IT. Second, search "Cow going abstract" by Roy Lichtenstein. That sums the whole point of abstract art. Random line on paper is not abstract art unless something led to it.
Yes it is. I’m in this exact situation except I actually think about colors and textures. I hate when I paint trash and it sales before my best creations!!!😠😠😠😠. For some reason that really pisses me off.
If anything, this proves him right…. It’s not good and the fact that nobody had any interest in it until they knew a youtuber was attached to it is kinda living proof of that. Nobody bought it because they liked the painting. They bought it because they like the person who made it.
@@yeahallthat Well yeah. The skill of understanding culture, society and life as a whole to be able to cut into it and produce art that meaningfully comments on it, or anything else for that matter.
in my personal opinion i think that the painting genuinely had a lot of potential! i personally feel it could have benefitted from a coloured background, maybe a very rich very dark blue? i feel it would have made the other colours pop more and added a bit more of a finished feeling to the piece, but thats just my own personal feelings/opinion! :)

I would say do one stroke, let it sit for a day, then do another stroke of paint etc. Stop before you feel you are done and don't fill up the canvas.
Honestly this IS art, you had such a whimsical childlike wonder and joy creating it that the piece holds meaning, cause you had a good time making it :]
Art is all about expressing yourself and the act of creating, and as corny as it sounds, about having fun and enjoying what you do. Modern art is a valid form of art. The only problem I have with modern art is what it sells for compared to other much more skillful and delibarate art.
@matthewmaldonado9698 I agree. Art has been commodified in recent times to an honestly disgusting degree, with ai art and people thinking all modern art or art in galleries holds no meaning because of the reputation it has for only being made to be sold, not to express any personal feelings or hold any emotional significance to the artists experiences, or the experiences of the viewer.
Art can be about lots of things, enjoying the experience and making something that you think is pretty or fun or interesting to look at, making a piece that hold great emotional value or significance to a potential viewer and the artist, sharing experience and empathizing with others through creation. I wish people could at least take meaning from examining the meaning of art in galleries, even if the meaning they glean from it doesn't resonate with them, it's still meaningful to try and understand the complicated emotions of others through what they create. And it's meaningful that every viewer will have a different experience viewing the piece, art is thought provoking by nature, and it sucks that alot of people assume most modern art is so shallow :[
Nah
I think the main criticism of modern art shouldn’t be that it’s “pointless” or “an effortless mess” (although in some cases it’s arguable), the issue is that auctions and other ways of commodifying essentially make it a matter of who has more prestige or essentially just a luck draw on who can make money from it
@douglaspantz read my reply to the other person who replied to me!!! I agree that modern art isn't all effortless or meaningless, it's mostly the publics perception of what constitutes as 'real art'
But alot of people choose not to try to understand the process behind art or the possible interpretations or meaning of any given piece because of how art has become a commodity, I see lots of people making modern art out to be simple or easy to make without really considering why it was made in the first place, it discredits art as a whole to think that art is worthless or has no point if it's objectively simpler to make
people call abstract art talentless but they just witnessed a man literally just being creative and having fun with it
If he keeps putting no part 2 and just 100% all in the first video I will sub
This man just proved that it's not the work that sells but how much clout the artist has
Here's the difference - he has a TH-cam channel, and that's where his audience comes from. Where do you think professional artists garner an audience from?
@@becausesakamoto5938It depends a lot, some of them did “traditional” art before and got famous this way, but many were just born in the right family or had the right connections, the art field is not one of meritocracy at all….
@@becausesakamoto5938museums they donate to to get tax breaks...
No cap I actually like it. It looks like a happy person with open arms it's like the fun he had while painting got on the painting itself. I would put it in my office if I was a dentist or something.
You would shit in your office too
Basically shows exactly how modern art is, didn’t get any sales until everyone saw the big name attached and suddenly it’s fine art
Wow it’s almost like it’s the intention and meaning that matters 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔💀💀💀
For me it was good
@@ByteMe908no it isn’t, the intention and meaning were there from the start, what really matters is who made it and how much money people can launder by buying the piece lol
@@ByteMe908 The meaning is "I splattered some paint to blank canvas to see for how much can I sell it."
Almost sounds like a grift, almost.
as an artist my self, these kind of arts are the worst for me, no high efforts yet gets solled for millons..
Step 1: have a million subscribers
Lol yeah,
Step 1: be popular
Step 2: make painting
Step 3: sell it anonymously as experiment
Step 4: give up and ask your audience to buy it
@@Khaisz. did he make it public in the end? Weird it suddenly jumped in price
@@melonytoni9016 It jumped in price because he made a community post on youtube asking his 1 million subscriber audiance to check it out and apparently someone there had $100 to throw away.
I hope you had fun! I don't get why art like that gets so famous, but part of what makes art fun is how easy it is to make something you can be proud of :]
Art isn’t just about how it looks, it can be about expression! And that expression doesn’t have to translate to the piece, it can just be the fun you had in making it ☺️ I think a lot of people don’t understand that
@dilorenzo2797 L take
art is about whatever the fuck you want
@dilorenzo2797L take. You don't need to make art for other people, it's also art if you made it for yourself
@dilorenzo2797that means ur making art for other ppl not urself, ur not a artist u produce goods
u can make art for urself and have it be meant to be shared with the world but to say art isnt supposed to be expressive and is meant to make other ppl feel stuff is insane, mf i make art for myself
Thats so cap lmao, art is about translating your feelings to the viewer, both process and result matters, my guy u never had any art education or mentor did u? Your view of art is so childish. What u talking about is called doodling, not "Creating art".
People forgetting the point of painting is to express emotions thought unconventional works, every art trend being made to diss the old art trend, that’s how art works
Now, it's more just to hold up mediocrity and say look great it is... and get insane tax write-offs with minimal work.
As an art student, I think it looks pretty good. If someone wants to buy it, it means they view it as art even if you dont. He seems like he had fun, and that's all that matters sometimes.
they don’t see it as art lol, he literally announced it on youtube, one of his subscribers bought it because it was made by a creator they like
@idrumsometimes still though, I along with a couple of people would consider this nice to look at and art. Again, personal preferences.
Genuinely asking, why are you an art student? Like, I understand that you may enjoy painting or drawing or w/e, but 9/10 you ain't paying the bills with it, most aren't becoming a picasso or an van gogh.
There are many ways to make money, not just through freelance work. More specifically, I want to be a graphic designer, someone who works as an artist for a company to loam out to bigger corporations. Like an art hitman. For example, the person who made the Nike logo is still probably living off the money he got from that, if not still getting money. Art is my passion, and I won't lie, I'm pretty good at it, so why wouldn't I become an artist!?
Keep in mind abstract doesn't always mean it's not made with intention, when most artists do abstract they already have an idea of the composition, colors, textures among others, even then it doesn't guarantee it's gonna get sold
Wrong. It's bullshit. You can look at a trash bin and enjoy its composition for free if you really like that. Everyone knows expensive art is just money laundering and tax evasion and asset transfer.
🤓☝️
haha, sure they do
@@unheilbarabstract is a big umbrella term, you've got those rich schmucks who get away with selling garbage, or picasso (a person who could have easily done realism, you can see his other paintings) who actually knew what he was doing
Thank you 🙌🙌

So nice of you to donate to charity

My mom dose this as her way of therapy to help her relax in the house. And when i be looking at all of the canvases, they look like something from a museum. And all she dose is just splatter em on. I love it!
you're equating difficulty with value but it looks like you had fun making it so thats the first step to understanding art
My ass. The first is not create shit and that's all he did
That an incredibly infantile way to look at it.
@@AkudamaDriver1 how so?
Art is more about the intent and emotions behind it rather than the skill or effort required

Bro should’ve stopped at step 1 and I would’ve bought it fr 😭!! It looks like a half-assed heart ❤
I actually really like how that first line turned out. Something about it is just really pleasing
The only way abstract art sells is if the painter is already famous
Yea cause it’s a money laundering scheme

Did anyone else see a woman in the painting
Same, a girl with purple hair smiling
I have to say, I really like thefinished painting. the stickigure looks so happy and content. I see a woman in a blue dress with purple hair dancing. I really don't like modern art but this one... somehow it makes me feeling things
:D
I think Im the only who see that woman in a purple dress jajajaja, even whit a great big smile c:
They should put this art in a museum but…
Those two cup foot prints and the line in the middle looks straight up just like a pe-
Protip: For a better end result, put a layer of white paint before panting on it. Wet, dry, it makes for a better result.

@@smilezzelims5129 “wet or dry” is that a super mario reference?
Ah yes I told my preexisting following about my art and it immediately sold! What a fuuuuuccccccking surprise
Abstract art is usually made as an expression of emotions the artist is feeling.
A 3 years old can make abstract art for free
@@mudkip9105 Only if the abstract art is made out of free materials
Yea but this guy just kinda made with the idea “oh this is easy, it doesn’t even have to look good, it’s abstract” but that’s not what it’s about 😭 I hate it when ppl say “oh I could’ve made that” cus the beauty of abstract art is in the expression of the concept, not the technical execution
Nobody actually uses abstract art to express themselves now, there's rare few tho and it's nice@@oliverriezebos
Not always. It can also be an exploration of new ideas or experimentation
Make a good draeing
Dragging cup with gray colour,
Make inside the circle 75% gray,
other things that are like ----• like the fire use orange/purple/yellow/red or smth,
Make black holes with a cent then full it with black colour in the meteor, stars, if u have black/dark blue or like black, dark blue then purple and loop then thats even better but yes u will have good art
The "laughing in artist" was way to relatable. Everything you say is so accurate though, keep creating content❤
-a fellow artist
Abstract art like this, imo, takes every art lesson thats been drilled into your head in school and shits on it.
"Happy little accidents"
Thanks for referencing Bob Ross.
I think most forms of art people critique for being "easy" or "stupid" dont realise that it actually is a skill. You need to have good control of your movement in order to create appealing patterns, you need to understand what colours look nice with eachother, etc. It takes time and effort - and of course, passion. The more excited and invested you are, the more that will shine through & give the art life. It doesn't have to be "good" to be appreciable.
ya but this only works if ur a popular enough youtuber to promote it so that it could get sold :/
FIRST OF ALL BEFORE ANY OF YALL COMMENT ANYTHING: I’m glad he had fun! I’m super glad he made money, I’m super glad he got to try a hand at art :). This is art.
I’m an artist, and though it’s not my field, I’m gonna have to step in for defense of abstract art. Yes, I agree that some of it is straight bootycheeks and I feel myself die a little every time I’m reminded about those TikTok swirly paintings that get thousands of dollars (I’m doing art for the passion, but DAYUM.), but abstract art IMO (if you’re really trying) is one of the hardest painting mediums. Abstract means ya take away almost everything except the basic elements of art but still have to portray something/give meaning (at least the ones I found interesting). One buddy of mine did a piece on colonization (he’s Zapotec) using patterns and different colors, and just,,, EUGH so good. Abstract art somehow gets to this primal feeling that you can’t quite portray in regular illustration.
Finally somehone who understands how abstract art is made! Bless you bro!
@@Omega754CZabstract art is made by flinging pant like a toddler... its worthless.
@@Sure_You_Betcha Sure bro, can I see your degree in arts? You know, abstract art is totally not simplyfying something as much as possible, totally not...
@Omega754CZ degree in arts... 🤣 Ah, I see the problem... You have a degree useless people get. And you're right. There is an argument that "abstract art" can be good (see Van Gogh), it's a different take on reality. How modern absract art, where it's just blobs, or splattering where it relies on the "emotions of the artists while creating it" isn't art. It's a tax write-off with no real monetary or social value. The average absract art, especially modern absract art, is the attempt of an artist who has either run out of ideas or is talentless to be deep and philosophical... That or it's a tax write-off so they can make oodles of money for flinging paint like a toddler or painting a few shapes on a canvas.
@@Sure_You_Betcha You are out of your mind bro. First, I don't have a degree in arts, I'm working on my degree in IT. Second, search "Cow going abstract" by Roy Lichtenstein. That sums the whole point of abstract art. Random line on paper is not abstract art unless something led to it.
It looks like a jawbreaker as an art piece and I like it
It's eye candy, but literally 👌✨
He looks like if the phrase "bundle of joy" was a human.
Yes it is. I’m in this exact situation except I actually think about colors and textures. I hate when I paint trash and it sales before my best creations!!!😠😠😠😠. For some reason that really pisses me off.
my dad says modern art takes a lot of time and skill. Thanks for proving him wrong
Good modern art does, that was pretty terrible.
If anything, this proves him right…. It’s not good and the fact that nobody had any interest in it until they knew a youtuber was attached to it is kinda living proof of that. Nobody bought it because they liked the painting. They bought it because they like the person who made it.
@@Chloeprettyoccasionallycause taping a banana to a fuckin wall takes skill💀
@@yeahallthat Well yeah. The skill of understanding culture, society and life as a whole to be able to cut into it and produce art that meaningfully comments on it, or anything else for that matter.

it seemed like you had a lot of fun making this! makes me understand this type of are a little more.
actually what i loved more is that you had lots of fun during the process and that is also part of art 😊
The end result is also imp so he had fun and created shit
This man just confirmed you don't need an art degree. All you need is a few paint brushes and a backyard
And a large pre-existing audience.
in my personal opinion i think that the painting genuinely had a lot of potential! i personally feel it could have benefitted from a coloured background, maybe a very rich very dark blue? i feel it would have made the other colours pop more and added a bit more of a finished feeling to the piece, but thats just my own personal feelings/opinion! :)
in my personal opinion, up until the cups and paint roller, i loved it
