ARTIST INSIGHTS: JONATHAN LONG
"And in order to refine one’s drawing, you need errors. Renaissance artists drew very loosely, very intuitively, but with Silverpoint. You can erase it, but it’s not relevant to the Renaissance approach to drawing because artists didn’t really rub out." - Jonathan Long
In this film, Jonathan tells us how his desire for historical authenticity gives his life meaning, how a knowledge of materials helps us connect with the art of the Old Masters, and why the Renaissance approach to drawing is still so vital today.
