Rien Poortvliet is a Dutch artist/painter. I am from the Netherlands, so I am excited to see that you love his work. I have a few books too. Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱
-
Aaron makes one feel like a friendly, knowledge filled visit to a favorite friend with common interests. Love the tidbits he throws in about the artist's life.
-
Little pronunciation guide from a Dutch person on Rien Poortvliet's name for English speakers: reen (like "seen") poart-vleet ("oa" like "whoa"). I bought his dog book recently - really inspiring!
-
Another fascinating thing about Nick’s work is it’s all done with a film camera! He is doing a lot of work towards conservation as well. I wish I had grabbed his first book when it came out.
-
I have always stopped and looked at the bookshelf-background in your tour's and these are hidden gems, thank you!
-
Don't forget Richard Schmidt! I want Robert Liberace to make an art book soooo badly. Thanks for showing us this. The Robert McLean one gives me confidence. I also want to do unusual animal poses for paintings. Like, the goofy positions house cats get into, or when birds are all flooffed up with their wings hanging down while they preen.
-
Thank you so much for sharing these! I am only 6 years into my art journey so being introduced to great artists feels very helpful. My background is animal photography so I get awestruck sometimes when I see how artists captured a sketch or a painting/drawing. Including you. :) Super inspiring!
-
Oooo! I love art books!!! Excited for part 2!!
-
Thank you for sharing not only these amazing books, but your passion for these artists' art.
-
Thank you! Loved seeing a peek at your favorite books and artists. Very informative! You explained their artistry and what inspired you about them so well. I would love to see more.
-
Thank you for sharing your favorite books with us. All of them are great but Heinrich Kley's drawing did amaze me a lot.
-
Fantastic list! So inspiring, Thank You for sharing these artists work Aaron! 💜
-
That was super relaxing, enlightening and cozy!
-
Wow this was amazing. I love seeing artists art book collections. Maybe a part 2 in the future. :)
-
Thanks Aaron! Love your work. You have beautiful books there. Please make more videos of your book library. Cheers!
-
Glad to see some of these from outside the range of artists that I personally know about, there's a few I'd never heard of. My habit is just to slap the subject in the middle of the page, so I'm very keen to see how different people do composition + staging, and learn a little more about that
-
Love what you do, you give shout outs to other artists for their work, you make amazing art, you help up and coming animators. Keep up the great work! ❤
-
Awesome books from amazing artists! Thanks!
-
Dear Aron, I very much liked the way, you presented your favourite books. And especially for the last one could see some remembrance in your paintings and art style, for instance the lighting and composition of the lion. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Germany 👋🏼
