I think the idea that's "old = good, new = bad" is boring and ignorant. As someone who does both, both medium can coexist peacefully and are valid forms of art.

Obviously traditional. How can you feel the euphoria of painting while not smudging oil paints over your device or mix up your coffee and painting medium? How do you even get creative without the sweet fragrance of paint thinners?

I prefer natural mediums, like watercolor, but digital is much better for working with clients. You can salvage something that went sideways without having to redo things, like say, a really nice gesture sketch that started the process.

I've used digital for a good chunk of my life, and it's fun, but you can't beat the tactile feel of traditional media on paper, in my opinion. I haven't gotten to try gouache or oils yet, but I bet they have their own fantastic texture to them! Hoping to try them this year.

I just have to say, I always wanted to be a painter, but my parents disagreed…a lot! So instead I became a doctor and both because I have no time and because I was very disappointed that I couldn’t go to art school, I haven’t painted in 15 years. After watching your videos I started painting again. Thank you for being an inspiration! Truly!

Dear God.. you're literally describing me right now, except I am in my 6th year of dental medicine.. Why did i choose dentistry over any other profession? Because I was hoping I coukd show my passion for art through teeth, since being an artist as a profession was a disgrace in opinion of my family.

i do digital and traditional art and i find that its just another medium and comes with its own learning curb just like starting with any other medium. it is far more forgiving than any other medium wich makes it perfect for exploration and iteration. for the first weeks i felt like i wasted my money when buying a tablet for art bvut after hundred of lines and circle practices i felt more comfortable and now the stylus is like an extension of my hand.

Absolutely! I did traditional art my whole life and just recently bought my first drawing pad. Its on the cheaper side without a screen and basically more of a fancy mouse, but still i really felt like I had wasted my money. For me it was more frustrating then anything else because you really need to learn your tools and settings. Its so different from just taking your brush and colours and painting intuitively. I am not really sure jet If I have the ambition to adapt this as a new medium alltogehter because it is just not as much fun (When I for example picked up Watercolor 3 years ago I was just so happy and engaged in the process). However I think nonetheless digital art is a great tool for any traditional artist to have when it comes to digitizing your physical artwork. I now use it to clean up mistakes, color correct some stuff, and maybe add a few filters and effects, that are harder to paint irl.

​@bettytrumble4997 I use clip studio paint. It's pretty cheap and has everything you need, but more importantly, a small learning curb. You can just start the program and go. I usually just do everything on one layer super simple I've tried other programs and felt like I needed a course to use them...

I am pretty messy in general so I just do the most important cleaning right away and then leave my desk with all my supplies scattered haha. I read above you use Clipart as a programm. Did you ever use Krita before and could compare the two? I started with Krita because it is a free software but sometimes I just not that intuitive I think, so I am thinking if I maybe use a more user friendly program the whole drawing process won't be that annoying

Fundamentals is what I need to learn! 🙏 I'm not sure where to start!

My observation after seeing a couple of traditional artists going digital: If you know how to paint the traditional way, creating a decent digital painting is not difficult, but a little time-consuming at first for sure, since you need to figure out what brushes to use and where are they.

She is so delicate, dreamy and beautiful.

It would actually be really cool if you painted the same thing again traditionally with oil paint and then hold both versions next to each other in order to observe if they evoke slightly different emotional responses. Anyways, I'm really impressed how amazing this turned out. I think if you wanted, you could master the art of digital painting very quickly! Much love from a German fan :)

Such an incredibly beautiful illustration! So striking, I absolutely love her!😭

For some reason I thought your style would change a lot if you changed from your trusty oil paints to digital painting. But it's mesemerizing to see that you were able to find all the digital tools that could still make you emulate your traditional style. Very impressive! It goes to show that for all types of art the fundamental art knowledge behind it is the same and just as much required.

I think having to put in a new struggle with your art gave it a bit more life than your usual work somehow! Not saying your work is lifeless, far from it, but this to me had more of a spark to it. Definitely let yourself have more fun with your work, Alpay, it shows!

I do both digital and traditional art. And I used to think that digital art might ruin my traditional art skill but it was rather the opposite, I can't stretch enough just how much I've improved by doing both media. I've gained confidence to do compositions from unique angles, just because digital media gives you an insane amount of perspective freedom. In short, yes you can translate your skills from one to another, just don't do photo bashing :v

Wow this came out so good I'm also a traditional artist and I have never tried digital art

Wow, this is so amazing! I have never been comfortable drawing digitally, but it was so helpful to see someone who usually paints traditionally try it out.

It occurs to me that your using the app to make this painting that my kids requested I get for them to paint. Now I need to go try it out for myself. Thanks! Fantastic rendering.

Your voice is so calming. Just perfect blend with your inspiring artworks.

Looks like a real oil painting ✨

What a lot of professional digital artists do to save time is they have this little key pad that they can program to switch between brushes and hotkeys like sitting on their desk beside their tablet or computer.

The painting is so good😱 This is the way.

Great video! I love digital to compose my oil paintings... or to FIX my paintings during the painting phase when something is _NOT_ working!😂

Your first attempt at a digital painting was much better than my first attempt. There are many ways you could have taken avantage of the digital process but I like that you took Your time with it. I'm trying to do same so that my time lapse looks better like yours.

Bravo! This is really well done love the hue shifts on the face, I am the opposite,I came from digital and have been trying traditional recently, it didn't turn out well, the hardest part is mixing the color you want,will probably take some time to get it correct.

As an art enthusiast, I like to (figuratively) get my hands dirty making art now and then, and CSP EX allows me to mess around, have fun, and make stuff I like. If I want to spend 50 hours drawing and painting on 30 layers I can do that, and if I want to augment my meager drawing skills with 3D models, I can save some time and get there a lot quicker. Needless to say, this piece of yours was really good throughout, despite the "struggles" you had. Trial and error's often the best way to get anywhere. btw, I highly recommend setting up a bunch of short cut buttons for things like brush resizing, moving stuff around, redo and undo. Even using a number pad they're a HUGE time saver. Nice video!!

Either paint or digital, you've got it mastered... you're painting technique is off the charts!

It's a great painting and I agree that one can be paralyzed by the endless choices available in the digital medium.

Wonderful painting. I’m amazed you haven’t been tempted to try digital before now. Those brushes have a lovely quality to them. It’s crazy that it’s taken so long for digital apps to have proper colour mixing.

Im also a traditional artist and started trying digital using clipart studio since a month ago and its fun to use

Really love your works dude. Thank you so much for sharing your process. Much love and respect from Hassib. 🤝🏻

Awesome painting! I love your style. Some day when I have a bit more time and space I hope to try traditional painting.

it's just so interesting how you hold the pen as you were holding a paint brush, or a graffiti pencil. it looks so elegant.

Holding it like that and being used to it is incredible helpful, painters have such a precise hand

Your art is absolutely stunning regardless of the medium wow 🫶‼️ I wouldn’t even be able to tell you weren’t confident with digital art…

I do both. I'm currently 16, started traditionnal at 3 and digital at 13. So, yeah. 10 years difference level. Today, I usually sketch _(the most difficult and most fun part for me)_ on paper and the final pieces on digital. Of course, sometimes I would sketch on my computer, and more likely, I would do a finished, beautiful and time-consuming normal-pencil-only piece on that one sketchbook that is my size lol. Lemme tell you : both are EXTREMELY difficult. BUT, I personally find that sketching is easier and more fun, because you're not obsessed with the Ctrl+Z. As for big pieces, it's SOOOO much more relaxing to know you can just have 22571 layers and Ctrl+Z at any time.

BEAUTIFUL! 🫶🏻

Beautiful work!! So lovely. As a digital artist I understand all your thoughts.

Every time with a new medium! Awesome Job! I like

Many times I hear professional digital painters emphasize the importance of doing traditional art and learning the basics of art and brush strokes/color/composition. Knowing traditional art will make you a better digital artist.

As a traditional Artist myself who is now getting into digital art.. I'm impressed! Your work is truly inspirational!

I too do digital and traditional none of them are super easy at firsts , it's so interesting both mediums since yes digital art is limitless in terms of layers and undo but traditional gives you a feeling it progress while also being about to touch the art and how irl the brushes interact with colours and the canvas

Super dope man!! Would love to see more! Id for sure get this print!!

Bravo, fabuleux ! Would love to see more digital painting from you.

phenomenal piece and a great video. You're a gem

Ich liebe diese Prozess-Videos. Egal ob traditionell oder digital. Man sieht in den meisten Videos, in denen digital gezeichnet wird, häufig das Lasso-Tool oder wie Teile hin- und hergeschoben werden. Das war hier gar nicht der Fall. Vllt. ein Vorteil, wenn man traditionell malt. Tolles Bild übrigens!

I started doing exclusively digital art because of autoimmune arthritis. The smoothness of the stylus on the tablet was so much easier on my joints than traditional drawing, and I could put my tablet at a 90 degree angle to me so I didn't have to bend over. I'm in remission now, but I'm still hooked on digital art, particularly CSP. Your paintintg looks awesome!

One of the most beautiful digital paintings i've ever seen ! i love your style

Maybe I'm too old now at 38, but I agree that digital art gives me too many options and I prefer physical medium for final paintings. I'm spoiled by digital for my planning process, though! I love cropping, color changing and adding elements in Photoshop to give me better references. I can't imagine not being able to use digital tools to make sure my ideas come together visually before putting even a sketch on my canvas.

I love your painting! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Bu nasıl bir yetenektir ya, hayran olmamak elde değil...

Powerful! I made digital art with my finger on the Sketchbook app.

I love Clip Studio Paint. After years of failing in Photoshop, I discovered CSP, and its brushes behave so much more naturally than in PS. The key to enjoying drawing digitally is definitely finding the tools that are right for you.

Love your painting. Thanks for a terrific video (and all the others you do!). That middle part where you were confused about detail and shading (switching brushes, etc.) is actually fun when you get comfortable with the software. You'll likely find that using only a couple of brushes with a special one thrown in (or created) here or there is the way to go. You are correct in that there are so many options to contemplate...using what worked last time and then watching other people use the software and cherry picking their techniques has been my strategy. Looking from the digital side, the tools, techniques, materials etc. required for traditional art (e.g, trying to produce a full size painting portrait in oils) is even more daunting and mysterious. I definitely think the transition from traditional artist to digital would be much easier for most people if you can be comfortable with the technology than vice versa. :) I was raised by a traditional artist (oils mostly) but I really never drew anything but simple line cartoons until I got my hands on a drawing tablet (in my sixties) - mostly due to the ability to not ruin a drawing with an errant stroke. :) After having drawn digitally for a couple of years, I really don't find myself using undo that much but in the the beginning it (undo and all the digital tools) helped inspire me to keep creating things. There are some brushes and effects that a given piece of software will do better than real life and some it won't do at all -- the traditional artist actually has more options in many cases (it's just your 'undo' is more limited in scope to wiping, thinner and paintover :)) so it can be a little adventurous to know how to do something physically but not know how to achieve the effects with the software tools at hand...but again, that's where observing how others use the software can be a big help.

This turned out amazing! Its always fun to watch a traditional artist paint digitally, you don't see many digital artists paint traditionally.

exceptionally painterly - pixel perfect

That time lapse is golden!💰🤩

I absolutely loved this painting!! ❤️ As someone who's only done digital art since the beginning, I feel the same way about traditional painting, half the time I'd be worrying about mixing colours & searching for the un-do button every few seconds.😂😂

I loved digital painting when it first appeared. It was a way for me to paint how I draw in the real world in cafes…but now in color, with no one knowing I was doing it. Because my subject was moving, and could leave at any time, I panted with big strokes using a oil type brush, hitting details last except maybe for features of the face. In those days my finger was the stylus. Now that I have a iPad Pro, I almost never think to do digital paintings. It’s weird. I think it’s a great tool to teach you painting, but in the end, there’s no original art really… so what’s the point…is the conclusion I came to. Interesting to see you go at it. I’m glad you made the video.

Absolutely stunning. It really shows that the tools can only take you so far (which is obviously quite far!) and that the real magic is in the hand of the artist. Love it!

As someone who does flat styled comic art and has problems with colour, transferring my work to digital never comes out well 😅 more practice for me, but when you are a VERY slow learning artist it is easy to get very frustrated when you are back at square one doing digital work. We'll get there one day... but yeah it'll take quite some time....

I LOVE the paining! I do digital art 90% of the time, and to me this is inspiring!

You did such a gorgeous job!! I really love how your digital painting turned out! I also had a very similar experience since I paint and drew traditionally. The layers and pressing buttons in order to blend were very awkward at first. But I made something work out where I took a "traditional approach" to paint my digital art. Since I have way more experience traditionally. It's all about the experience and getting to know your tools and how to work with them and see what possible effects they can make. But thank you for sharing your experience and hopping to see art videos like these in the future. Have fun painting! Keep up the amazing work!

Beautiful work and video! I'm technologically inept, so I don't feel like digital would work for me. I mostly follow traditional artists because I can identify with the process of making mistakes and fixing them with traditional material. Digital artists loose me as soon as anything technical comes up.

I like how you spent the first few minutes focusing on how fucking talented and skilled you are. You’re the man. It’s all about you. Welcome to KZread. It’s you.

Amazing piece! Every time i thought you were done it kept getting better! I am also very new to digital art and am using clip studio. They have very good brushes but I also use Jazzas brushes too. I find it fun to play with all the possibilities and it is a useful tool to have for sketching designs for traditional art I want to make.

Im in the same boat.... I purchased an Ipad Pro just for transition to digital art, but right now I feel so overwhelmed, but I can see through my inexperience in the medium how easy it is, once I get all the things I have to, I know it will be easy to make art.
