    Hello there!

  • Omar Domenech(dostovel)

    Yes, I think I started watching CG Cookie in this time of the year in 2012

    Well, I just this moment found out there's 1) something called Blender Today, 2) that does livestreams! I'll have to look into that...

    Omar...seriously?! 😱

  • Omar Domenech(dostovel)

    I'm very used to watching tutorials, the live streaming are very new

  • Kent Trammell(theluthier)

    It's cool seeing Blender livestreams crop up lately. Like Pieriko's stream, Blender today..I feel like a Gleb stream would be gold.

    Cool side effect, I've seen every tutorial here for the last 6 years so that doesn't happen to me sadly

One of the best ways to learn, improve, and challenge ourselves creatively is to study great artists. Remember Picasso famously said, "Good artists copy. Great artists steal."

Ok, obviously literal stealing is not Picasso's point. Instead the insight of his quote is to get in the habit of admiring and analyzing esteemed artists. In this stream we're doing exactly that; focusing on one of my favorite 3D artists: beeple. We'll look at his background, sift through his body of work, and discuss his artistry/technique.

Beeple is famous for creating an image (usually 3D and always incredible) from start to finish every day for 10 years - and he's still going by the way. Read that sentence again. Besides his absurd ability to create quickly, he's above all a gifted artist. His #everydays work is a deep well of abstract visuals, realism, voice, composition, emotion, etc. Trust me: There is much to learn from studying beeple.
