Cool. Always wanted to try wood panel but I don't know what wood to use or how to prime. Any tips?

You can paint the wood panel with gesso, that will prime it. You can also sand it first. I don’t know what he used but, you can use a piece of Masonite. The hardware store will usually cut it for you also. You can get it cut to the size of a pre-made frame, like 8x10, 11x14, 16x20 or buy the frame first. Acrylic and oil paintings generally don’t have glass.

No art is wasted! It’s time spent learning and every piece makes you a better artist :)

Kung Alfred burnt the cakes he was making, and so we have biscuits :-)

the only bad art anyone makes is one that you dont learn anything from and can bring with you to your next piece, and usually the way you learn is from failure.

i hate quotes like this cuz theyre wrong. if ur goal is to be a career artist, n ur unanimously not good enough yet, then everything u make is a failure, according to urself. u r literally failing to meet ur own self-defined goal. unless u can seriously live the whole "itS tHe JoURneY" bullshit. then again, tons of career artists have trash art. seriously theres some 17 yr old kids that should just get punched in the face n we all know it.

Watching this video just as I was about to quit Instagram due to decreasing reach even after much efforts and better artworks than before.😢 But now, my mind is composed 😃 its a failure I've faced, its not a loss or a defeat. I'm not quitting anymore. Thank you so much for making these inspirational videos! ❤️

A lot of video games really reinforce this idea, and really encourages you to try something different next time.

thank you for remind me that its ok to fail, i have three kids, and paint in the night when they sleep, as i have little time to paint sometimes the pressure of doing something good inmediatly is overwhelming

Oh man every artist in the world needs this video. Every person, I think! I'm gonna save it, share it, and watch it again and again. I always get so much value from your videos it's insane. And I'm gonna tell you this, your the biggest raison I got back painting after 15 years without picking up a brush or even a pencil for that matter. It makes my day when I see a notification from your channel. Your brilliant. Thank you so much

Same I almost gave up on drawing ,but I didn’t. A year ago i couldn’t draw at all I was always the worst artist in the group and I decided to draw everyday and I did make a lot of progress for a year. My family says I draw good now and it feels good ,but I’m still on the level I want to be. I always fail and I’m trying to become amazing also started painting. This video gave me motivation and I’m not going to quit😃. Hope everybody tries there best!

This made my eyes full of tears as I have been struggling with myself convincing that it’s okay to not make good drawings or paintings and it’s okay that I don’t have my own art style or genre yet. I always feel like giving up as I can’t find commissions. But this video has made me little hopeful and motivated 💜💜

"Or finding your perfect pancake was actually a waffle" I absolutely love this quote. ❤️😁

You are not a failure, is amazing what you can do in painting. I am a Failure , as a self taught painter that lives in Portugal. Where in Fine Arts just post-modernist painters are supported by media. Living in big expectations or ambitions, goals,working on realism is like fight against the wind. But I am not afraid, I paint and don`t quit. I`m happy in front of my easel.

Beautiful portrait... thank you. Sweet pup too!

Thank you for this video! This conversation is always a necessary one

Beautiful portrait! The flowers look AMAZING!!! EXCELLENT ADVICE!!

This is so beautiful it made me cry. Gorgeous

I love your art, I love your narratives and I love you! Thanks so much for sharing your incredible gifts and insights with the world!

I love the way you capture a subject's expression and attitude in your portraits!

The beat you used in the end of the video is amazing

That's bitter but so true! I really appreciate this. Failures are part of our journey and not everyone is kind enough to tell you that.

Your videos are a therapy to me. Thank you for this particular video, really needed it!!

Love this. Many times I look back at my failures as a blessing in disguise, but in the moment it’s not always fun. Love the painting and your style ❤️

Thank you kindly for sharing your experience, this is a reminder all artists need.

I could listen to you give advice all day

Thank you so much! I've been really discouraged to make art because of one failure I had, but this video had motivated me again! Also, LOVE the pancake analogy

Thank you for this video. I rarely write comments on videos, but you are an answer to prayer! My own frustrations and defeats had started to get me down. This video advice while realistic and sobering, was so encouraging. You are an inspiration. I wish you the very best success.

So happy I came across this video. Thank you for all that you do

Let's not miss something with this video. Included in with some excellent advice, is a very, very, awesome piece of art happening before our eyes! That painting is really good! And your studio assistant is adorable!

I listen to this as I struggle with my sketch. Thank you for helping me through 💖

Your lessons and analogies are so helpful. Thanks you so much for sharing your stories of own failures and lessons, it was very reassuring and meaningful

Thank you......for your support.........love yours words......Beautiful paintings

your videos are so calming

Man you're the king for talking about failure this way!🎉

I really enjoy watching you paint, the paint is super smooth.

Your painting is beautiful. I needed to hear this today, thank you!... Your studio assistant is cuuuuuuuute!! 😍

Thank you for making this video. A lesson in life as well as your amazing art. Love the light heartedness of your presentation. Failure is the beginning not the end of the world. Brilliant.

First of all, thank you. Your voice held me as the value of your words unfolded. Your style of painting is drastically different then what I usually prefer AND I find myself learning too. I agree 100% about life’s failures as really being lessons and stepping stones on our continued path! Again, thank you. ~c

I love this channel. Thank you Alpay, you are a wonderful human.

Beautiful as always. I've started to practice with tips and tricks you suggest in your videos and I've improved significantly. Thankyou so much ❤️

Thank you for this beautiful video. Thank you for your beautiful art. Thank you for your wise wisdom.

Thank you for all your time and effort my dude. I look up to you

Just LOVE your exciting skin tones. Your colors are so fresh and vibrant. My current goal. 🧡

Spot on. Great advice. Love your art too man.

Alpay, your work is just fantastic. And, on the top of being a great artist, you are a true philosopher of life!

A wonderful advice. Recently I've been trying to draw and do watercolour illustrations again, but I haven't been making anything that's "good". Seeing this video and remembering the time I draw many "failed" drawings before getting any better. Now I'm more comfortable with failing and I just have to keep drawing! Thank you so much for sharing this!

Noni is so sweet!! Thank you for your excellent content.

This is so encouraging. Thank you. & Your painting is awesome.❤️🙌🏽😁

i'll forever keep failing and succeeding but no matter what i won't ever have enough ! thank you so much for sharing this with us

You are one of the best artist on youtube 😄

Thank you for this 🥲 the beautiful painting and the beautiful words of inspiration. They are so important when someone is wrapped in doubt about what they’re doing and what they’re capable of 🤗

Thank you! Always enjoy your painting and advice!

I'm so glad I found you.This video meant so much to me.Especially the Walt Disney reference,because even though I've read his biography,I didn't see it coming when you brought him up,and your "reminder" brought tears to my eyes.I do hope to become a paetron soon.Thanks.

I love how seamless your color transitions are. Do you have a video on how to achieve that?

Thanks for the message ❤️❤️ beautiful painting

Powerful woman! Great painting and calming voice. Thanks for your hard work.

exactly what i needed to hear. thank you so much!

I have no regret watching this video you are so motivated ❤

Thank you for making us to understand the failure is the start for success.💛

This is one of the BEST videos I have heard in a long long time. So encouraging and inspirational. Yes the truth is WE WILL FAIL it is what I do Next that is so important .. Thanks again

Wonderful painting, I was watching in awe and I was inspired by what you said about failure! Immediately shared this video. Thanks man!

Thank you for sharing your process! I love to watch!

I am an artist myself. Watching you paint and hearing your words was a very calming and meditative experience for me. Thank you.

You just spelled out my personality towards my painting so right. I really appreciate your pieces of advice. Thank youuuu😊

Love the video! Keep it up. I look forward to all your videos!

Im glad i watched this video today, and thanks for sharing it! The last part where you said ‘failure is just the result of a recipe that didn’t work for you’ resonated with me so much, and so much deeper than just in my art. I was never allowed to fail as a kid, and this succinctly describes the mindset I have been attempting to cultivate recently to heal. It always helps to hear someone so accomplished that I look up to express these concepts! The painting is also so beautiful 😊

I love this video -- both the painting and the advice! Thanks so much!

Thank you💕I needed this

good advice. Just love your style that smooth realism mixed with all the stylized brushstrokes. The flowers on her head reminds me of a cake frosting or something, love the look

Just what I needed to hear this morning, thank you xx

I love listening and learning from you. It's so inspiring and your truth telling is incredible and helpful. Thank you so much. Incredible teacher of art and life. Thank you

Thanks for this. This was great painting and even better message. Thanks for putting your thoughts out there to help someone else.

Excellent advice! I needed to hear this!

I needed to hear this. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this video! I'm always so anxious to start a painting because I'm afraid of failure only to realize that when I actually sit down and start painting, the results aren't as bad as I'd imagined. Failure is necesarry and a part of life. We can't learn without it. I've also realized that painting is like problem solving. If a technique doesn't work, you try another one until you succeed.

Love the advice and the painting, thanks for all the awesome content!

Thanks Alpay, yr right, I have always looked at F.A.I.L. as Finding Answers In Life, and yr right they are not the end, its just learning, love yr work, cheers kev

This painting is so beatifull i can't keep my eyes of it😍

I love your advice, completely agree! But what really sealed the deal for me was your beautiful pupper at the end, subscribed! XD

AMAZING! THE ART. AND THE ART OF CONVERSATION MONOLOGUE!!!!

I love your video's so much! Thank you for sharing your artistic expression with us all.

After bumping onto yr video, I'm obsessed n hooked. I'm a little artist, sold a few pieces, only painted 1 portrait which is not my forte, but watching yr video gives me an incentive 2 try. I've been working on a 2x1 meter oil painting of a sunset 4 about 1yr n after watching yr video I went in my garage n worked on it 4 around 3hrs. Thanks Alpay yr voice, kind words n spiritual advice is to dye for.

dude thanks for this video!.. i loved the way you approach the failure in an unexpected way. i was gracefully surprise with this video. keep the good work. amazing painting. 😊

Love your videos, so relaxing, brilliant accent and funny, thankyou

You don't know how much this video has helped me. I am a fine arts student and I have had the worst art block and can't even draw a line. This has greatly inspired me to just fail till I succeed. Thank you.

I needed this. Love your videos. Thank you!

Wow. The talk was great but you created a living piece of art with brushes almost like magic! First time watching following the 10hundred collab I'm so glad nerdforge referred you. New sub.

Thanks sr , I’ve been drawing with charcoal for a long time & recently starting painting. Your videos helped me out a lot

Thank you for helping some of us, who sometimes forget to keep tension in the past tense, to remember how to lighten up.

I love this one. Great lesson . Thank you, thank you.

Thank you for giving spiration . I love all your arts work. God bless

Thank You so much for your advice! I have always been afraid of failure my entire life. But I have started a journey to look at fear as a recipe that just didn't work for me and conquer fear in my own way.

Always an inspiration. Keep up the great work!

I have tried and failed at a lot of things. Creating art is so vulnerable. I needed to hear this. I love watching your videos! Thank you for taking the time to share your talent and words of wisdom and encouragement. I will do the same.

Love your pearls of wisdom 🥰

Stunning work! Subscribed! Thank you!
