In terms of putting out Jono Dry abstract art, I don't know π€
Most of the times abstract art tells horrid stories and dragging emotions of the world and people.
The drag is so omnipresent that I refuse to interact with abstract art that tells stories of emotions that pull me down.
And even if Jono Dry doesn't intend to drag emotions down with his abstract art, it is common knowledge that the sender of information doesn't get to decide how the receiver of the information interprets the information. A piece of art looking upbeat to Jono Dry may be interpreted by my as dragging down. That is the risk of abstract art. That's why I prefer semi-abstract art instead.
Abstract is sooo hard π
Coming from pencil art, back in my youngest years drawing anime girls … don't judge me!
Being told there is only poverty to be found in art I went into IT.
What ever outsiders think about IT, it is not that. So I rediscovered my Interest in art.
Through IT got enough money to try out all kinds of paint mediums.
Yet still stuck with realistic pencil art. Portraits are my primary focus.
I found soft pastel art and soon after found Karen Margolis and I found Thomas W. Schaller.
Soft pastel semi-abstract and watercolour semi-abstract are putting me back to school.
My pastel and watercolour paintings are looking – well, beginner is putting it mildly. π
And so I keep on going back to pencil art in order to remind my self that I don't just suck. π€£
I am an artist and my genre is Impressionism realism. I did travel down an abstract path around five yrs ago and learned quite a bit of interesting techniques that can enrich your existing practices. It is never a waste of time to experiment with different creative applications.
I love absteact drawing or mixed media and I also love when artist are expirementing with new thinks, it is like a new room to visit. I really hope you do this video. I, for sure, would love to see it. I am multicreativ, doing just one "kind of art" never works for me. I need different projects and I never do the same twice, I creat not reproduce. Thank you for sharing. May I recomend Lydia Broderik (artist here on youtube) she is able to combine realistic oil paintings with breathtaking atmosphere and abstract painting, I love here style.
This video popped up at just the right time for me. I am revisiting a form of abstract drawing that I started playing with in the 80's. I believe there is nothing wrong with having a couple directions to go with a medium. I would love to see some of you abstract work.
Yes, lets see what comes out of your unknown self. You have an amazing technic and experience so when you let go of control, whatever will be in control has an amazing chanel.
Hello Jono, I have watched your progress for many years and it made me smile that you have been trying new things.
The last few years I have been playing with art and painting trying to find my style after picking up a brush after 30 years. As a self taught painter, I was drawn to realism and didn't understand abstract and "modern art". I love victorian gothic and have always been attracted to it though I thought there was no market for it. I was working on a painting and struggled with a porcelain skintone and out of my dispair I painted over it started something completely different, combined realism with an abstract background and I found my style.
I really enjoy combining the two techniques and it does give me more avenues to explore. You don't lose the realism you strive for. It adds another dimension to make the work interesting.
I hope you try and find that you can combine the two techniques and come out with something pretty amazing. ππ
Wow! I really loved this! I come from a very small town in the north of Sweden. No one I knew worked with art or read books for that matter. I started with realistic water colours and sketching models. I went to drawing portraits and painting small strange enlarged things from flowers or things I found – all in water colours in my 30s. It was too boring, so i started to read old books about egg oil tempera and made my own colours for a while. Too boring! Read about oil painting, how to do it correctly chemically. It was in my late 30s. Had some small exhibitions and rented a studio. Painted in strong colours, big abstract paintings, some portraits and enlarged parts of things – all in strong colours. Today I am 72 and I still love to paint in strong colurs – abstracts, portraits, plants. I have also been inspired by you to try pencil in a more free way!
Interesting…the guy on the miniature looks "somehow" like Author Neil Gaiman known for "The Sandman" comic books and TV series for Netflix on the right side of the miniature there is a half naked man that looks like the fictional character of "Joker" played by Joaquin Phoenix in the 2019 movie by Todd Philips
Now let's examine the Lies of the Devil here shall we, Here we have another MK Ultra Inception subliminal induced ideas that you believe I am a "Wizard" of some sort that can travel different dimensions or that I am an anarchist violent man bent on Revenge.
I am sorry to tell you that both are Lies. Peace Next
i took a break from realism. Instead of working for hours to get that photorealistic effect, I grab a charcoal stick and start working with it without thinking of perfection.
I am legally blind. Before I went blind I used to love doing realistic art. I did it for years, almost all my life, and I loved it. But over 10 years ago my doctor told me that I was going blind. My life totally changed. I noticed that my art just wasn't right. I couldn't draw a straight line to save my soul. For a few years I was deeply depressed. One day I came across Picasso cubism. I was never into abstract art but after I saw his cubism art it clicked. It made sense to me. I thought if I can't see straight then I won't paint straight. With my eyesight the way it is I can't see people's faces clearly. So I thought what if I paint what I see. And boooy did it work. I love seeing very bright colors so I decided to do pop cubism. I really love my art now. I am able to let my perfectionism go and just trust the process. Now I paint women with big beautiful eyes. Sometimes one eye larger than another and the way I use color, I can actually see my art. I absolutely love what I do now. My eyesight is still in decline but I am Blessed. Don't be afraid of trying something new. You just may be surprised by the journey it takes you on. God bless β€οΈ
I was told that my hyperrealistic work was something I would "grow out of" as I grew as an artist. I don't see that happening, because I love the attention to detail. But I love incorporating surrealism into my work, and had my son help "collab" with me by letting him color on my beautiful graphite with a red crayon. It was intentional and healing to let go of the perfection and watch him scribble on my work. Maybe I will scribble on my own work one day.
What brand kneadable eraser do you use? Every brand Iβve tried so far are too soft and itβs really frustrating.
Enjoy your new direction. The interesting thing for me is language and perceived limitations. All art is abstracted if you look closely. All art is representational even if it is emotional landscapes that are being represented. Why do our minds need to classify? When the flow has you ride the wave π
Iβve been doing hyper realism for 5 years now and have only recently been thinking about how to take my art to the next level. Iβm not sure why, but I feel drawn to the idea of including abstraction into my drawings and creating a sort of βsurrealismβ as you said in the beginning of the video. Iβm unsure of how to even start going about that and what that might look like. All that to say is I strongly share your idea of letting go of the βstructureβ and allow yourself to be more fluid.
Art Journey Yup !
very brave!
I do charcoal hyper realism but I also have been looking at more abstract type of art… I have never been a huge fan of abstract art, but it really adds something when it is combined with realism. One of my favorite artists besides you that I follow is "Mad charcoal"… He does very loose, abstract charcoal drawings with realistic faces… He is also very fast, which is also something I am trying to work on with my hyper realism, trying to figure out ways I can go faster when making my art.
Crazy how this guy keeps getting more and more pretentious each video π π
I've been trying a bit of abstract with graphite but for now am approaching it more as experimenting with textures, shapes and marks as I also find it hard to 'let go' and tend to be quite detail oriented. In this I am inspired by the work of Melissa Cormier as it feels very organic which I love.
I do find the process easier with watercolor paint or bister as that is less easy to control (unless you actually know what you're doing π) and you literally just have to go with the flow.
I started out with realism because I had OCD and perfectionism and there was a pride in drawing a portrait that looked exactly like the reference.
Then I discovered your channel and learned about references just being a guide and allowing my own touch to place marks where they needed to be and allowing myself to express an idea with out needing it to be exactly 1-1.
Then I discovered modern art, and how itβs stripping away everything and taking it just to the basic shapes and allowing with simplicity to express the idea .
And then I fell in love with Mark Rosco. His paintings are viewed with deep emotion.
And now Iβm back to realism using all of the less lessons. Iβve learned to create a piece that is uniquely my voice.
β¦Iβm looking forwardβ¦π
Thank you so much for adding substance to the art world, your work provokes both thought and emotion . Something I don't see a lot these days. Well done , and best wishes.
Β‘Bravo! An artist should explore, experiment, go beyond one's familiar boundaries. I love both abstract and representational art, I do both depending on the subject matter, and mood, and medium. IMO Abstract art is far more difficult because you have to use your entire cache of artistic knowledge, skill, imagination, and experience to create a work of art.
Check out these three abstract painters. They have found a way to embrace chaos and randomness in their process yet it yields artworks that are actually beautiful.

I started learning hyper-realism in 2020. Ironically it was directly because of your piece "Discomposure". I found it online and began following your work here on YT. Your media assisted me with what I could add to the tools I already had (300gsm watercolor paper, graphite and charcoal). My first piece took about 20 hours to complete and was a 22in. x 30in. portrait of Patrick Mahomes. I was fortunate to meet his mother who I passed the portrait drawing along to as a gift for Patrick Mahomes during his college Hall of Fame induction. I later got to personally create and hand a portrait to Texas Tech University Hall of Famer Michael Crabtree as well. Since then I have averaged 45 commissions a year, in many different mediums. I recently had to slow commissions to a crawl to concentrate on other forms of art, like abstract (and street art). Same as you, I haven't understood much of it in the past and have been skeptical to it being legal money laundering in some big money cases. But there is always work that I appreciate and it inspires me to learn more about it along with color (my nemesis). Thank you for your video's and sharing your journey as I have learned so much from each one. I always look forward to what you have in store next. We live vicariously through you.
You're so talented π―π―π―π―π―π―π―π―π―π― and i really love Your artwork, your artwork is so stunning π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯
I really want to see one of your abstract works! I went from drawing realism (I'm far below your level) to painting abstract because I thought it would be fun and it looked easy. I have been painting primarily abstract for almost two years now and it's not easy. I'm happy to see that you are exploring abstract and look forward to seeing some of yours one day.
YES i have always loved your work, but as i often work in the abstract it can frequently feel disconnected. You always inspire me and get me in the mood to create, keep on smashing it!
Jono, haz lo que te haga feliz, pero sigue mostrarnos tus trabajos.
Muchas gracias desde EspaΓ±a.
Check out Cesar Santos work. I personally do more abstract work in between my realism works. My mind enjoys the break from spending so much time in analytical thought.
This seems to be the natural progression for every realistic artist I follow.
Do what you love and what makes fun. Its a good idea to get more "experience" "natural" process in art. Art is not about perfection or realismn. You are so incredible
Please Jonodry we need a time lapse video of the new drawings, this will help us a lot in developing our skills
1st like from india β€
