Is Vilppu the best art teacher?

>> No.4236148

>>4236145
Yes.
Too bad his young videos are low res so you can't see and now he's so old you can't make up whatever he's saying.

Maybe not the best, but I love him very much. I often think I'd like to meet him and give him a hug.

Nope. Bobby Chiu is miles better.

I love schoolism but bobby is probably the worst artist on there. Which makes sense since he runs it so he is the only one that didnt get extensive vetting.

Bobby's stuff is nice, but I think Jonathan Hardesty is a bit overrated

Vilppu is weird. He is too complicated for beginners but by the time you are ready to learn from him it is excruciating to watch because you already know about his material of gesture and breaking down stuff into basic forms. He just merges the two very well. It is a life long endeavour to be able to keep your fluid gesture while constructing and adding anatomy. Not a 12 week course type deal.

My intellect is the best teacher
Vilppu, Hampton, Bridgeman are there to allow you to explore possibilities
You are supposed to figure out things yourself. Your shapes and your construction forms
You have all skeleton and muscle reference in the world
YOu're not supposed to always draw it like Villpu or whoever did

Villpu might be a better artist but Huston is most certainly teacher.

How can you judge who's the better artist? They're both so high level they seem the same

Who?

I won't claim to have the expertise to make any judgement calls on that because they're both masters but I think Villpu is generally speaking a bit more acclaimed.

>He is too complicated for beginners

If drawing cubes is too complicated for you--- you might want to try other careers.

>> No.4238824

>>4238358
You'd be surprised. Looking back at some of those CA.org sketches, some of those pros couldn't even draw a box in perspective at first.

>> No.4238881

>>4238358
Sure drawing cubes is something everybody should either be able to or learn to do but Vilppu's flowing style is not nearly as structural as the NMA courses offered by Huston or Gnass and I would argue their methods are more cerebral and therefore easier to follow.
