Do you paint by looking at images or do you paint them with your insights?

👍 Just wondering about your carbon copy: can I ask you how you transfer the outline in carbon onto your painting board? thanks

Could you pls include the link to cobalt turquoise paint i cant find it anywhere. Thanks
It'd be great if you included some clips of your palette so we can see how you mix colors, how much you mix of every color, how you organize them on the palette etc.

Since I’ve started painting, I’ve always had a photorealistic style, because people seemed to enjoy it the most. Your videos actually inspired me to stop doing what pleases other people and incorporate a more free style, different textures and colors. Now my paintings bring even more joy to my clients and other people. Thank you so much!

people like photorealistic style because people dont want to think and see new ways to visualize the world. something lazy for the brain.

many start off being realistic and then becoming more free over time. so your foundation is solid. congrats!!!

i like photo realistic style , and work in same style just because it amazes how few colours can make a thing that i see, of course art is diverse and photo realistic style is a small part of it but no one can ignore that its the most important one because it's what visual art started because of, one can argue normal singing/music is not interesting and they like opera or beatboxing etc but natural/normally singing cannot be stated inferior

Is o.k. to go out and do your own style.....but remember that it is the customer you intend to sell the painting to that has the last say.....Sure...there are different people that like different styles. Don't paint what people want unless is a commission work. You can't always please everybody.
As someone who really struggles with trying to imitate reality perfectly and gives up easily, your advice about freeing ourselves from expectations and not copying things as they are was really inspiring, thank you very much ;-; Ps. The music went soo well with the video, good choice!

Never give up!! Just paint YOU. 🙌🏽
Ok, I don’t know how you do it, but you just inspired me so much! I haven’t really tried realism, inanimate objects here and there, eyes on my math homework, and one lip drawing that I’m very proud of, but other than that, nothing. I also haven’t used oil paints ever, but your videos make me wanna try them! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
I like how pop-py yet classy it is. The cool background contrasted well with the warmness of flesh.
Thank you Alpay. I love your work. It's so gracious of you to share your technique and ideas. Love your channel!
I thoroughly enjoy watching you paint and listening to your narratives, which always add an extra layer to your paintings. Thank you.
Loved this voice over and the process of deciding if a color is cool or warm is so freaking helpful. I always get sucked into colors and making sure they match rather than the tone love this so much
Pure perfection.. Every stroke, color had a place that all made sense.
Thank you so much for making this video, Its a perfect description on how to take something boring as skin tones and to transform them into interesting values of color, I hope you keep making these videos, they inspire me to brake out of that mold I put myself in and to explore a hole new color world. Thank you 🙏🏽
Yet again, another masterpiece! Absolutely stunning! 😍🖤

Can't tell you how much I love this channel. Your voice is so soothing and great to hear in the background while I keep doing my own work. Keep it up!
THANK GOD I HAVE DISCOVERED THIS CHANNELLLLL OMGGG ITS AMAZINGGG. And it’s amazing that you upload videos every week
I absolutely LOVE your videos. They put things in perspective for me. Not just tips on the actual process. But as an artist. I'm always so hard on my self I put myself in this box and stop having fun with my passion because I am worried if anyone will like it.
I think I'm beginning to fall for your art.
I just want to say thank you for all your painting videos. I watched quite a few and seeing how you paint made me a lot less shy with how I add different skin tones. I've already noticed improvement. You're a brilliant painter and it was great to learn something from you. 😁
Perfect musical accompaniment, great speaking voice espousing wisdom and expertise, fantastic pacing...this is tutorial and meditation all in one.
Love love love your tutorials. Thank you for another gem.
the advice in this video has really impacted and stuck with me
Amazing art and great words of inspiration! Thank you! It came so timely for me, as yesterday I painted something and tried to make it as close to reality as possible, and failed. Everything went wrong on my painting because I had too much expectations! I was so much upset that I even cried a bit. Now I'm inspired and trusting myself and respecting my own vision. Much love to you! 💗
it really amazes me how you use so many colors for the skin...i am a portrait enthusiast and i find these tips very helpful, thank you for sharing your knowledge!
This was my favorite video of yours so far! Loved the insights! Thank you!
Mr. Efe, you are now my favorite artist!!🥰 Theres something about your style that's real and abstract and effortless all in one. I love your technique for skin tone. I love that you don't tone the canvas first. I want to paint just like you..
Stunning model, exquisite execution!
Wow 😮 this is my favorite tutorial so far. Its like watching how its done while listening to an interesting essay
I just found your channel, and I'm obsessed!! You're so great and inspiring, keep up the good work! :)
You're my favorite youtube painter. Thank you for your education, your inspirational hard work and style.

Your paintings are fabulous and your explaining makes it more easier
Was just about to start a new painting, best timing to get some tips :)
Beautiful work - you always paint such captivating eyes!
You’re very talented! Thanks 🙏 for sharing your techniques and painting philosophy, very helpful for new artists 👩🎨.
Yet the most realistic areas of this painting, the eyes, are what make it so amazing when next to a more abstract area
It's so soothing to watch you paint
I look forward to these , another dose of art philosophy And design instruction of a rather free nature that I am very much partial to. Very helpful to me as I become a better colorist.
Great video--perfect combination of time lapse and commentary. I really like the way you describe your process: detailed and yet not boring, and you know exactly the right moment to stop :) Oh, and I like the final result on the canvas too! A very distinctive style.
This is one of my favorite pavorite paintings of yours
Awesome insight and perspective! Not to mention the skill! I'm diving into my first oil portrait and I've found you very motivational. Just wanted to say thanks!
I love the way you teach paintings, you make me interested learnings paintings
