Why Your Artists VOICE and Style are Different (It Matters) Malcolm Dewey 2023-05-09 | In this video, we explore the difference between an artist's voice and style, and how understanding these two concepts can help you develop your painting. Also to better appreciate and analyze works of art. We start by defining what is meant by an artist's voice, which encompasses their unique perspective, personal experiences, and artistic intentions. We then distinguish this from an artist's style, which refers to their technique, approach to composition, and the visual elements they use in their work.📙Your Artist's Voice: amzn.to/3M7r4voUsing examples of artists like Monet and Van Gogh, we examine how their distinct voices and styles are reflected in their paintings. We see how Monet's voice was characterized by his deep love of nature and his fascination with light and color, while Van Gogh's voice was defined by his emotional intensity and use of vibrant, expressive color.Finally, we discuss how an artist's success and recognition are not the only measures of their artistic worth, and how focusing too much on external validation can distract from the development of one's own voice. Instead, we encourage artists to focus on their personal growth and development, seeking inspiration from their own📘 The Book: Your Artist's Voice: amzn.to/3M7r4vo✅ Your FREE Course: https://art.malcolmdewey.art/FreeCourse
