I was so obsessed with achieving realism and getting my drawing to look exactly like the reference until I found this channel. Everything you have said on all of your videos go against everything I've learned by watching lots of other artists but you make way more sense than any of them. I have found my passion to create again because of you and I would pike to thank you very much.
This is a perfect example on how you can paint realistically and still incorporate your own style to it! 👌the blue hue you chose for this piece was a bold decision and it really paid off in the end. Amazing work! 🤩😍🤗
Your philosophy is exactly the part I enjoy the most. My paintings got better and better when I stopped thinking about whats real and what's not.... and all thanks to you! Pace 🙌
When im feeling artistically down and in a rut, these videos help inspire me and help me get out of my own head over things. These chill yet inspiring videos help keep me going as an artist, thank you
Sir, I have just started watching your videos and I have become a fan of you work. Sir you have inspired me a lot, that I have started doing oil painting. I hope you inspire a lot of other people also Thank you.
This might be my favourite video you've made, Alpay - there are no real rules in art, and adhering to certain 'mandates' or 'edicts' can sometimes limit us!
I LOVE how he said that who cares about the real world? We’re just creating art here and it makes so much sense because we always strive to make our art as realistic as possible but those little indifferences or ‘mistakes’ that we make is what makes our art OUR art. Thats what helps reflect ourselves in our art, thats what brings out our style in our art and personalisation is always a very intimate touch to whatever you do 🥰
Thank you Alpay for making these videos. I’ve been having a tough time during quarantine recently, and struggling to find a way to find meaning in my day-to-day life. Your videos inspire me and make me feel comforted. Thanks for all you do.
Damnnn his style is freshh!! 😻 I really dig it and I can especially tell that he adds his own style whenever he’s painting. This turned out great, great job! 👏🏻
This artwork is stunning. And I always take your words to heart, because it allows me to do art without having to "know" what I'm doing, or feel the need to follow the rules.
Really like this one, alot of painters argue about not to use black because it does not appear in real world. But they embrace it when it comes to photography, and all. What is HD TV , well basically the biggest things are that screens with modern technology can create pure black and increase the definition of ”reality” so why not in paint. And if I remember correctly Singer Sargent also used black in palette so I would not argue with that.what is art without the evolution of changing perspective.my 8 year old daughter changed my way of thinking about painting,she was painting a landscape and I pointed out to her that if she would mute the greens they would look more natural and how it appears on reality. She looked at the green color I mixed for her and said, ” I don’t like it. Looks ugly and boring” and that is true, she taught me a lesson, whenever I paint now, I think of her words, paint it awesome and pretty. The best advice I think I ever got.and from 8 year old.
These videos are the best in stimulating to art, just by tips and tricks and taking it easy. It gives the motivation, dedication but also the freedom you need to express and dare to be a bit of a rebel while doing so. Please go on! 😀
Please consider doing an online workshop! You're halfway there with these videos, and your extensive knowledge translates well into teaching others so I'm sure it's be a huge success and a win win for us all haha. Love your work man, keep killing it
Congratulations for being artist in heart and mind. Your skill on painting and digressing is what makes you really unique. Rules and laws cannot find a long living shelter under art. I enjoy your videos.
Looks realistic. I wish I could paint like you. I’m new to your channel. I appreciate your talent and painting tips. They are all great. Also a fan of movies, the little movie paintings are awesome. Angie
I am by no means a realist, or an expert. I do think, though, that learning to draw/paint what you see can eventually help you draw what you see in your head. Anyhow... I love your views on art and art making, and I love hearing you talk about it. Thanks for another great video!!
Your paintings are incredible! I really want to get started in oil paints as I just love how they blend so well and watching videos of it just makes me so relaxed. I’m kinda intimidated as I’m only used to pencils but after watching your videos I feel so inspired, thank you!
Love your painting videos, just starting oil painting journey, beeing tattoo artist for 8 years thought it would be easy but quickly realaised its not, your videos helped me alot...big thanx and waiting for more
May I quote you? "Who cares about the real world? We're talking about here." Brilliant. You would make a great writer, you know. You speak so unpretentiously, and naturally.
New subscriber here, you are definitely creating entertaining videos in addition to inspiring 😀 love listening to your philosophical musings, they are my favorite.
I absolutely love everything you said in this video! Your work is equally as engaging as your thoughts on painting and what makes realistic art. Thank you for sharing your process, your philosophy, and your particular taste on painting. My gosh! I discovered you through IG and I feel like I’ve found a new treasure!
You're videos are AWESOME and I LOVE your philosophy on art/creativity! Will definitely be trying some techniques used in this video. Thank you for sharing🙏🏿

Even if its "just" a realistic eye i can still see your own style in a painting like this.
Love it! :D

This man could *sneeze* and it would paint a masterpiece. Look at what hardwork & skill will do! 😯👌👏👏👏
It's amazing. The combination of colors is amazing!😍😍
I think you are right it’s about contrast and relationships.
Not only inspiring but also entertaining. You are Mr. Alpay

Mikko inksanity Im pretty sure your daughter is just too young to understand how colors work.
THIS IS THE BEST THING I WATCHED IN A LONG TIME.
