You were playing it silly, but the artistic journey you went on was kind of legit. You started out experimenting, found a theme to work on, then abandoned it when it was unpopular and decided to try to express a related theme in a different style. I occasionally felt you'd made a kind of cool image, then you'd way overdo it and make it less good, but you learned to scale it back over time. In a lot of ways, your art stayed consistent to the original theme of insignificance and alienation. It's kind of a legit journey.
It is. Actually that's one way to interpret it. To me, Art is everything. "Oh, what's this, i'm moving my leg? now i'm inspired by the wonder of how i can move my leg so i want to express it through a canvas." No seriously, how in piss do we know how to move our legs? its just the most natural thing in the world.
Here, i've translated everything into/from french, also i corrected the arrogant sun. 1: Le chat terrible. (the terrible cat) 2: Espérer. 3: Les visiteurs. 4: Délicat. 5: La signification du pain grillé. 6: Oeil du spectateur. 7: En dehors là. 8: Sous. 9: Toi. 10: Rien (nothing/none) 11: Déconstruction rurale. 12: La lune triste. (the sad moon) 13: Le soleil arrogant (the arrogant sun) 14: Arc-en-ciel déconstruit.
Should be Le terrible chat... also toast is accepted in French. Pain grillé is fine, but from where I’m from everybody says toast xD Rôties could be fine too :p
I put it to Jon that (should he in fact see this comment) he should watch just 3 episodes of Bob Ross and try to apply some of his painting techniques to this game if he's considering a second episode (A live stream for instance).
Jon cut out his eye for inspiration, but he forgot all the good artists and composers used an ear. Now he has his iconic -517 (and counting) perception.
PinayPencilArt Especially the, "Holy shit, that's a massive amount, what did I do?" and then trying out a bunch of stuff to match it and none of it works.
Yes. My passion is photorealistic pencil drawings. Some are commissioned, others are not. Often I find that the fun drawings sell for more than people are willing to pay to have a custom piece done. I'm still struggling though. Sometimes I sell several pieces a month, other times it might be 6 months between sales. I wouldn't change a thing though. I love what I do!
I wonder if the name Passpartout in this game has any kind of connection to Passepartout, the valet, in "Around the World in Eighty Days"? An interesting choice of names.....
Passport is passeport is French. Same pronounciation, but don’t pronounce the t. Passe-partout means a key that opens multiple locks, but it’s a word that is very rarely used. I’m from Québec and even if the last episode was 27 years ago, the word passe-partout is usually used to refer to the show Passe-Partout.
Every time Jon used the spray tool, I couldn’t help but realize that “impressionists” did the exact same thing! Jon is a real artist and he doesn’t even know it!
I can sense the sarcasm but then again... to art is to question. Which is why i question why whatsherface, that one Disney movie about a shitload of dogs (I don't remember the title) is so fascinated about a single black spot in a white canvas.
As someone who spent many hours playing in MS Paint in my youth, this appeals to me. I never got good at Paint, but that was never the true purpose really :)
I got this yesterday and I don't know how you do it Jon. I couldn't make a straight line to save my life, let alone any shapes. And my arm is killing me.
After your captain spirit video I just watched your playthrough of life is strange, now I feel very sad while also wanting to see life is strange 2 sooner rather than later

you're right. it's uncanny.
The art critic comes and picks the on piece of art no one wants. He then proceeds to call it a masterpiece. Sounds about right.
"I'm trying to create art paint"... I'm sure Michelangelo said the very same words before he started work in the Sistine Chapel.
I believe you mean the 'Sixteenth Chappel'
You're a top comment now...
I shall have a party to celebrate!
Art must be a perception based skill
Brendan Walsh One must see the art in their mind's eye... too bad Jon has an eyepatch over it.
It is. Actually that's one way to interpret it.
To me, Art is everything. "Oh, what's this, i'm moving my leg? now i'm inspired by the wonder of how i can move my leg so i want to express it through a canvas."

"I have experience drawing cats. Now what does a cat look like?" Jon 2018
Here, i've translated everything into/from french, also i corrected the arrogant sun.
1: Le chat terrible. (the terrible cat)
2: Espérer.
3: Les visiteurs.
4: Délicat.
5: La signification du pain grillé.
6: Oeil du spectateur.
7: En dehors là.
8: Sous.
9: Toi.
10: Rien (nothing/none)
11: Déconstruction rurale.
12: La lune triste. (the sad moon)
13: Le soleil arrogant (the arrogant sun)
14: Arc-en-ciel déconstruit.
Wisdom,Power,Donut wouldn’t espérance be more appropriate. Or perhaps espérez, like it’s telling you to hope or something.
Should be Le terrible chat... also toast is accepted in French. Pain grillé is fine, but from where I’m from everybody says toast xD Rôties could be fine too :p
To be fair though, this is Bob Ross levels of skill and chill.
No mistakes just happy accidents
I would love this as a live stream. It would be chill as heck.
I put it to Jon that (should he in fact see this comment) he should watch just 3 episodes of Bob Ross and try to apply some of his painting techniques to this game if he's considering a second episode (A live stream for instance).
There is no painting without pain.
Hence the bill for baguettes.
Kolkonut I'm sure @ClaireRousseau would appreciate the pun.
SearynSever Monsieur, il mérite une médaille.
SearynSever Probably the best pun I've heard all year.
Take away "pain", and you are left with "ting"
I have absolutely no idea what that might mean.
Jon, ignore them all - you know deep down that the tabby cake was glorious.
Also, a fox closer to a dog than a cat, so, y'know...
pain means bread jon. youve made an abstract bread painting
anarcho-communist bread
perhaps he meant his tragic baguette habit
I wonder then if Mattaphobia has both a pastry fetish and a BDSM one
TehWunTehOnly I'm glad I'm not the only one that saw that.
Well, given his wine and baguette habit, he does "knead the dough."
I shall get my beret...
I never thought an art game would go so well for you tbh. I'm down for more of this
Hope was pretty radical, considering you painted an Anarcho-Syndicalist flag... Accidentally political apparently...
"As it turns out... I am an artist!" ah.... and now you're an anarcho-syndicalist, great job Jon!
Triangular head? One eye? Is Tabby the Illuminati?
FunkyFyreMunky Cease your investigation.
Hmm.... somethings not right here but i can't put my gauntlet on it.
Prepare the inquisition...
(A very feint "Yes sir" and men marching)
This was way more fun to watch than I thought it would be. It was strangely interesting and nice to watch Jon figure out what he wants to paint.
Please do another part! It's just so relaxing to watch.
Passpartout? More like PassPartTwo. Because this was great and I'd like more.
Jon cut out his eye for inspiration, but he forgot all the good artists and composers used an ear. Now he has his iconic -517 (and counting) perception.
This captures the life of a new artist better than I could have ever expected. Yeah, I'm living this right now.
PinayPencilArt Especially the, "Holy shit, that's a massive amount, what did I do?" and then trying out a bunch of stuff to match it and none of it works.

PinayPencilArt what’s your income ?
Some months, zero. Others, several thousand dollars. Just depends on whether I'm having luck or the opposite of luck.
PinayPencilArt I’m trying to make it in music and feel you on living that struggle.
"toast from above" is actually a great painting it deserved more
I am somewhat disturbed with Jon’s psyche
I love how Jon made the Sun a significant size of a galaxy. Love ya Jon!
Jon is now the painter of all the cat portraits in fallout 4
"I really could do with more shades of grey."
Like... 49 more?
No, Jon. No.
That's what I came to the comments for
Is It Just Me, Or Does The Painting "Hope" Look Like The Rebel Flag From Europa Universalis IV?
rate eightx Yep, he also did it at the beginning too.
it's the generic flag of anarcho-communism
jon is a communist confirmed once again
I wonder if the name Passpartout in this game has any kind of connection to Passepartout, the valet, in "Around the World in Eighty Days"? An interesting choice of names.....
Thanks for the info!
This seems to be a really fantastic game for parents to teach children about making their own art.
icthulu and even teach them that even if someone doesn't like their art does it not mean it's bad and someone else might like it..!
The fact that 'La Lune Triste', as glorious as she is, was not called 'The Moon-a Lisa' saddens me a little
Difference between a house cat and a fox.

Subphylum: _Vertebrata_
Class: _Mammalia_
Subclass: _Theria_
Infraclass: _Eutheria_
Order: _Carnivora_
Suborder: _Feliformia_

*Fox*
Kingdom: _Animalia_
Phylum: _Chordata_
Subphylum: _Vertebrata_

Subclass: _Theria_
Infraclass: _Eutheria_
Order: _Carnivora_
Suborder: _Caniformia_
Family: _Canidae_
Genus: _Vulpes_
Species: vulpes.
So you were right up until Order.
Yet people say foxes are more similar to dogs. most likely the genus or species.
People often ask where is the the moon, seldom do they ask how is the moon.
You need to make more of these! This is incredible
This is so French, it tingles my inner baguette.
Bisous from France !
You said your thing was cats and space but you never did the obvious, cats IN space
Barely been a week since stellaris finale and jons found a way to crack planets in paint...
Writing on a painting doesn’t make it mean something John.
Shame these weird funny one offs get so few views. Including the great cat bakeoff.
They're definitely my favourites.
The starving part is redundant, you can just say artist
I absolutely love that as soon as he unlocked spray paint he sprayed everything lol
Please more! Always funny to see you painting.
Hey, do you know that Passpartout means “Key” or “Something that opens opportunities or places or that kind of stuff” and it also means Passport
And it's the name of an old children show from Québec it's en francais
Passport is passeport is French. Same pronounciation, but don’t pronounce the t. Passe-partout means a key that opens multiple locks, but it’s a word that is very rarely used. I’m from Québec and even if the last episode was 27 years ago, the word passe-partout is usually used to refer to the show Passe-Partout.
In visual art passe-partout means "frame"
It's also the name of Phileas Fogg's valet in Around the World in 80 Days.
DarkHawkGames I got the meaning from that book
"I have to get this painting out and sold"
*spends the next half hour painting*
I love that the guy carrying around baguettes is the one that bought painting with bread (pain) on it.
"I will paint Tabby as I have experience with that"
Literally one second later...
"Now what does a cat look like?"
I feel like _La Lune Triste_ is a volcano plugged up with a bowling ball x D
Also I would've bought _Below_ without the boat!
Why did I enjoy this so much? Kinda mesmerizing and relaxing.
I'm been waiting forever for this. Thank you Jon
Every time Jon used the spray tool, I couldn’t help but realize that “impressionists” did the exact same thing!
Jon is a real artist and he doesn’t even know it!
There's something about thus game that just pleases my aesthetic.
"I really could do with more shades of gray."
I think it explains itself.
"What do cats look like?" - truly an artist at work
I can sense the sarcasm but then again... to art is to question.
Which is why i question why whatsherface, that one Disney movie about a shitload of dogs (I don't remember the title) is so fascinated about a single black spot in a white canvas.
I actually really liked Out There and the one about the ocean.
This is one of my favorite videos yet.
I think that it sort of hit close to home at the end of the day.
This whole commentary on the art sounds like when i'm trying to add meaning to my work for better grades in college.
A few of Jon's pieces were actually quite good. That Moon one was actually lovely
"I really could do with more shades of grey..."
The closest Jon will ever get to smut.
31:31
Jon, you made the Moona Lisa...
I am reminded of the tortured artist in Fallout 4, who got his success painting Cats. but no one got his other works.
that was one of the most relaxing things I have ever watched
It is so fascimating to watch Jon the Artist :D
I'd buy the cat space eye...
That day cake or tabby cake actually wasn't too bad jon you just fiddled with the cake too much I reckon
I dont know why but I found this extremely relaxing
me: this is clair? - Jon: this is the moon!
I know people have already played this allot. I know it has ran its popularity streak but I love This channel and I know Claire is french
I instantly thought ”Around the world in 80 days” not a wierd frog person drying to paint
As someone who spent many hours playing in MS Paint in my youth, this appeals to me. I never got good at Paint, but that was never the true purpose really :)
This game was released quite a while ago. But it's quite funny.
And we also see Jon thinking he's doing something better than he actually is
I got this yesterday and I don't know how you do it Jon. I couldn't make a straight line to save my life, let alone any shapes. And my arm is killing me.
Jon: "i have experience drawing Tabby!"
Also Jon, in the same breath: "what do cats look like?" 🤔
🤦
As an art student, I can confirm this is how an artist works.
I really just want Claire to do a reaction video to this 😂
'The Sun is just going to fry us all to death'. *Looks at weather forecast* Yes. Yes it is.
Rural Deconstruction was actually genius!
John's deconstructed cow reminded me of "Spherical chickens in a vacuum"
The wine and baguette expenditure legitimately made me laugh out loud.
So what you're saying is "tu non regrette rien"
I expect a Jon/Claire duette next livestream :P
I actually kinda liked “you”
Now I just want more of this to see how much he can get away with just cat paintings.
Why the HELL did I enjoy this so much? Thank you John! (or Jon, not sure)
He made it say "pain" to make a statement, but I think he forgot the game takes place in france.
OMG THE CAT HORROR CAKE LIVES AGAIN! JON IS POSSESSED!
Jon: The Starving Artist
To really should have called the moon painting "Notice Me, Sunpai"
Foxes are a little pointier on the front:
🦊 🐈
Do a series I couldn’t stop laughing this whole video
I really liked the space eye
Hearing John speaking french is always hillarious
Cyclops Tabby = Scary.
Deconstructed farm animals is very 1990s.
If Dr. Strange had a bowling ball for a head, anyone else see it?
"Oh non! He found out!" - (c) The Aliens
OMG IM SCREAMING I THOUGHT JON WOULD NAME THE IDIOT PAINTING "YOU" - MY LONG LOST MATE
I'm gonna steal the idea of a deconstructed cow
I would actually buy 'Below' without the ⛵ - that's art!
Apparently the moon is also a bowling ball
At 7:06 you painted a lovely anarchist flag
I can't wait for Passpartout: Frost
At least it’s not raining.
After your captain spirit video I just watched your playthrough of life is strange, now I feel very sad while also wanting to see life is strange 2 sooner rather than later
I would honestly love to see how Jon's mind works.
Jon, what does bread have to do with hope?
