Why Old Masters Matter to Artists II: Leonardo da Vinci & the Power of Observation
In Episode 94 of Art Talk, we dive deep into the timeless art of observation—through the eyes of one of history’s greatest minds: Leonardo da Vinci.
This episode explores how Da Vinci’s approach to seeing the world can radically transform your own creative process. In an age of instant gratification and visual overload, learning to slow down and truly observe is more powerful—and more necessary—than ever.
We’ll unpack how Leonardo’s method of deep observation shaped his art, and how modern artists can apply these same principles to create more intentional, meaningful work. This conversation invites you to ask better questions, see beyond the surface, and move past merely copying what’s in front of you.
