Great video! In my opinion I think the most important thing is to know yourself to know how to paint. Some people can paint every detail and that's because they are meticulous in what they do they feel good to do so, others need to paint in an expressionistic way because they can't paint details and they are more emotional. Other people need to see the color and enhance it. That's why it's useless to copy other artists: styles go according to personalities and not the other way around🙂 Greetings!
I don’t know that I’d agree it’s completely useless to copy other artists (maybe don’t steal and only use their style) but I think as an exercise it has merit, since you have to view the subject and technique from a fresh perspective and consider why they made the choices they did. I think it can really help you problem solve in the future and help inform the style you personally develop
I’ve known this however I love how you’ve described this! Sometimes hear it in a new light . I’ve always wondered about more accurate but my strength is colour and expression ; which I love to embrace. 😊😊😊
@@gigipujals2547 Yes, you are right, it is important to try to copy the work of other artists because it is a natural way to learn from people we admire, that's not what I meant. I meant that we can't be like other artists are: their personality, the way they feel when they paint or what things are important to them when they paint. In my case, I have a hard time painting details but I can't paint too expressionistic and impulsive either because I can make bad decisions and regret them. I can try to copy two artists that are both ways but it will always clash with my nature.
OMG😮😮😮! Your husband is Alpay!!! He’s my favorite oil painter on TH-cam!! I love, love, love his work! I love your work too. Man, talk about a power couple!
I once read about a great advice for digital art that may fit to the beginning topic (painting every little detail) of this video: Basically, never zoom in too much, and work too detailed on those zoomed in areas, because as soon as you zoom out and see the whole painting, you will notice that your details/the area may not fit to the whole painting anymore. It's better to focus on the whole thing most of the time, before spending too much time on the wrong things. Also, most people will NOT EVER zoom into your art and take a look at details that are smaller than ants :D
Sometime I wonder if I’ll ever stop studying and learning new art techniques and the answer is “no” because the more you learn, the more you understand that there is more to learn 🙌
Alpey is your husband?! That is wonderful!!!! 😁💖 Am artist power couple. You are two of my favorite modern day artists. I reference him often but I work with different mediums. Your mediums. So I have a habit of utilizing information from both of you, as well as other artists like Arleebean. That just made my day learning you two are together.☺️
I think that the constant search for how to become better is the biggest strenth of an artist of any level! And it is so awesome that you (the artist of absolutely stunning paintings) do not stop in your progress!
Not through the video yet, but I totally agree. I noticed something similar when I rediscovered Basquiat. Instead of imitating him, I asked myself what I like about his works. The spontaneous scribbles, the rough elements, etc. Etc. Just like letting ideas of others rerun in my head and get my own view on it.
Your work is absolutely beautiful, it's definitely a great direction to be taking, it's resulted in an almost abstract surrealism that's totally stunning.
Mrs Brücker you're a pit full of wisdom. Every time a see one of your videos, I feel like I'm having a master class from the greatest artist institution. You have all my respect
Thank you!!!!! Here are sth i take notes from your video - Think about a big picture; slow down and ask" if i would hang this on the hall" - think about the picture that you want to hang on the wall if not thing pop up take your time to find it (pinterest behance dribble) - if it diferent from what i would then save it or print it and analyze why I like it and find inspiration There are so many good advice that i can list all Thanh you
Amazing video! I agree with almost everything, I don't think a picture is good if it stands nicely on the wall. Personaly, when I paint, I dont think of purpose my painting would have. I just have the urge to say something to other people, and sometimes art is better way. People dont need to like my paintings. I think that meaning behind art is to make people think with their heads. When we look at art piece, we slow down and think more clear. That way, everyone can find what they need in themselves. Art is just there to help them.
I really envy your ability to embrace abstract. I can't help but try to achieve realism the best I can, figuring that if I can master realism to where it's easy, then going with an "easier" and "simpler" style like abstract will be effortless. In truth though, abstract is a skill of its own and something that I need to practice at just as much as realism if I want to be on the same skill level as either or. I am aware of this and yet it's still something I forget or doubt in the middle of a painting lol. I know this is the case because I would never think to do what so many expressionistic or impressionistic or abstract painters would do and can't tell how it's done a lot of the time! Just because I focus on realism doesn't mean I'm any good at it but I aught to also take the opportunity to be expressive too. As my watercolor teacher taught me; "photos are for capturing the image and paintings are for capturing the feelings those photos give you".
Wooww I open my eyes many times with this painting, you are rigth this is a painting I would love to have in my house, that is the key. Congrates and thank u for your ART
I love John Singer Sargent's paintings a lot, especially White Ships. I'm totally excited about how he managed to arrange seemingly rough brush strokes into a picture that comprises of the impressions of light and creates a vision of reality in my brain. I can't seem to find how he did this magic.
Lioba, I adore your videos. You & your hubby are both very talented! Thanks for sharing your inspirations. Watching you work and listening to your commentary is endlessly inspiring. Big hugs ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
This is amazing! This gives me inspiration. I've been having art and writers block but that thumbnail has helped me. Watching the process and hearing you're words I feel truly happy
I like Hundertwasser, Niki de Saint Phalle, August Macke, Jack Vettriano and Dali (und einige, wo ich mir einfach die Namen nicht merken kann). Yes, I am a bit more into abstract art. I am happy for you that you reached a mile stone to walk more and more in your shoes! In my opinion this is what art is about! I just love art seeing the expression and diversity.
I love the way you share your insights and learnings. I do tattoos and I don't do everything, I use the following thought: If I don't share it later on my IG account it's because I don't like it, so if I don't like it I don't do it. But I never applied the same premise for my drawings... Oh oh. Thank you so much for sharing and congratulations for your art!
This is awesome, I just love hearing what inspires you and seeing why it’s inspiring from your perspective. You mentioned books that we like. For me, some of them were actually a set of texts from an online art history class I took many years ago and they’re called “Gardener’s Art Through The Ages” Volumes 1 & 2 but if you can also find the study guide I highly recommend getting that as well (Kleiner & Mamiya). I like those books because at the time when I read them I hadn’t learned anything about art yet, and I was just beginning my creative journey so I had no idea what I liked and these books gave me a very broad sense of what’s been happening in art around the world and made me aware of how art material advances have allowed for many innovations that lead to new techniques and styles which for me is fascinating. I discovered a love for art experimentation and that informs my work greatly. Loved the painting in this video, that blue and yellow ochre are *muwah* 🤩
Ive always loved how you embrace so many different styles and incorporated them into your own works.... You and your hubby Alpay are both talented individuals and I love how you clap for one another. Thankyou for sharing yet another informative video. 🙏🖌️🎨
As a student of illustration in college, 35 years ago, I would buy movie posters of Drew’s work (actually the poster in your video) and try to copy the style. Eventually I went to a small seminar with him and he was doing it differently than I thought. After trying his way I went back to my own way, but it was so helpful to understand what I really liked about it.
This is very inspirational. You made so many great points. I liked the unusual tape; it must feel nicer as you look at the work during painting. Will check out your husband's art too. I would love to see you comment on artists' work that inspires you, and for you to do more book recommendations. Two artists I recommend here on YT are Mark Carder and Peter Draws. A few of my many inspirations include Frazetta, Bill Watterson, J.S. Sargent, "Spider-Verse" & Netflix "Arcane" artists.
One of Klempt's most famous paintings was of Judith holding the head of Holofernes. Which was a continuation of many other artists depicting it over millenia. It is a very powerful theological theme that any artist who has the skill you do can imitate and continue. I would ask what stories resonate with the artist and ask them to pursue them.
I collect art and am trying to create it (year 4 of deciding to pursue it ) and yeah, I would buy your art if I had the money. There's a few artists I want to buy art from. Like Maria Foldger
YOUR HUSBANDS ALPAY EFE?!?!?!.....................what a Power Couple!!! :D gosh you both must create some ART!!, would love ot grow up in your household surrounded by SO MUCH creativity. Very VERY cool :)
sehr cooles video :) danke dafür. Ich muss sagen, ich habe sonst auch nur realistisch gezeichnet und gemalt. seit 2019 (eigentlich seitdem ich mit Aquarell arbeite) mag ich aber auch ein wenig abstrakter zu arbeiten oder einfach mal was auszuprobieren. Und seit letztem Jahr bin ich im skizzenbuchfieber. Da fühle ich mich noch freier und probiere Sachen aus und fühle mich nicht so als wenn es perfekt sein müsste ...
🤔how I just got 🎁 gifted?(😯😳#did I do that?.)& skipped right over #can't draw a stick figure.&🤢🤮😬don't have the fucking patience for the beginner &practice circle& line bullshit.(😖)😉🤷♀️# just fucking do it.& keep going till I'm happy with it.💖👍😎✌️

Very true! It's super important to knock know yourself and know what you like! 🥰
Oh yes ! I just cant do details, I dont even think much when I paint. I just do it !

OMG😮😮😮! Your husband is Alpay!!! He’s my favorite oil painter on TH-cam!! I love, love, love his work! I love your work too. Man, talk about a power couple!
Never knew you and Alpay Efe were couples. Your both are my favorite inspirations. Love both of your artworks.❤❤
TIL. Both wonderful painters. Both great at YouTubing
personally I find alpay efe's work boring there's too much the same, repetitive and overrated.
I once read about a great advice for digital art that may fit to the beginning topic (painting every little detail) of this video:

That's a super valuable advice which is also true for traditional media! Thank you so much for sharing it!
I didnt know Alpay Efe was your husband, thats awesome.
Sometime I wonder if I’ll ever stop studying and learning new art techniques and the answer is “no” because the more you learn, the more you understand that there is more to learn 🙌

Yes he is!!! :D Thank you so much for your kind words! I am happy we can be an inspiration for you!
I am jealous of this husband and wife... 🥺 Artist couple ❤️
Wow! I never knew your husband was Alfie! I’ve followed both of you for so long 😱❤️
I think that the constant search for how to become better is the biggest strenth of an artist of any level! And it is so awesome that you (the artist of absolutely stunning paintings) do not stop in your progress!
Thank you so much!!!

This piece is gorgeous. So much to look at and focus on, not just a center area. Lovely.
Your work is absolutely beautiful, it's definitely a great direction to be taking, it's resulted in an almost abstract surrealism that's totally stunning.
Mrs Brücker you're a pit full of wisdom. Every time a see one of your videos, I feel like I'm having a master class from the greatest artist institution. You have all my respect
wow, thank you so much! ❤❤
Wooooooow you guys are married! Cool! I that was a big surprise! 🤩

That's SO true! I recently went through my IG and did a major purge and promised myself to never paint anything again i am not 100% happy with!

Your new art reminded me of Alphonse Mucha
This was very inspiring! It's incredible to see how your art has changed and improved. This piece turned out magnificent! Those white tigers are 🔥❤
As a student of illustration in college, 35 years ago, I would buy movie posters of Drew’s work (actually the poster in your video) and try to copy the style. Eventually I went to a small seminar with him and he was doing it differently than I thought. After trying his way I went back to my own way, but it was so helpful to understand what I really liked about it.
Wow!!! I would have loved being in one of his seminars too!!
So beautiful Lioba - I love what you talk about too :) Thank you for sharing your wonderful gifts
lately i have been studying m.c. escher, as well as taking inspiration from and studying the works of alfonse mucha and peter max.
Hii Lioba..i learnt a lot from your videos.. thank you very much💚
Love from India😊
Thank you for the informative
and useful
Crushed it! Super cool to see you still feeling like you're improving :D
Your work is very inspiring :) love it. Small question, what paper are you using?
Clairefontaine Watercolor paper 🗞️
both my favorite artists are married * - *
마치 타로카드를 연상시켜요! 제가 가장 좋아하는 그림이 될 것 같아요!!
This is very inspirational. You made so many great points. I liked the unusual tape; it must feel nicer as you look at the work during painting. Will check out your husband's art too.

Badly want this print!!! Oh, and I already know which artist's stuff would and should fill my house. :)

Da freue ich mich aber für dich! Aquarellmalerei kann sehr befreiend sein und es macht Spaß damit zu experimentieren!
Also experiment with physical texture. ( next level )
Wow, it's amazing and amazing drawing skills ~~~ ^^😂👍👍👍
Great tips, thank you for sharing these. Are you using Washi-tape on watercolorpaper?
TY for the great video. Never fails to come back to study, study, study. :) Btw, what paper are you using for this painting?
Your husband is alpay efe ?!!!
That's amazing
YOU ARE MARRIED TO ALPAY EFE? WHATTTTTT

hi how are you I like you 🌹 can I be your friend
I follow Alpay, I like his technique for paintings but not much his advice. I always thought he was gay, LOL.
