my mother is an artist (who focuses mainly on oriental paintings like Ebru and Minyatur). I used to have really bad nightmares in my childhood. I remember waking up at 3-4 AM from nightmares (about 9 years old, 14 years ago) and my mother was making this beautiful Ebru masterpieces when I woke up. I remember being soothed and amazed by the flow during the act of painting and sleep on her legs. It is like a balance between chaos and tranquility.

I can say that in a moment I was hypnotized with his neat and clear way of speaking Turkish, such a magical thing to experience. Everyone should be proud of his language thought, and proceed on the way of articulating and pronouncing it. Big up ❣️

Yeah I agree I went to Turkey a few times and Turkish sounds beautiful.

[@salihkara2211]

There are lots of accents. Some are actually ave aspiring. Personally I like old Istanbul accent better. It is extremely sweet and gentle. Not many speakers left though.

[@rudra7615]

Amazing art And one more thing, I never knew Turkish sounded so awesome, its like french and Japanese mixed together for a first time listening. Not harsh like Arabic, very "smooth"

[@rudra7615]

@Ahmed El-Mhemadawi I KZbind Fairuz, different to find but it is okay. I guess language and accents are subjective, as someone who doesn't know the language, first time hearing it.. To me there is alot of halting in the speech, its almost like water in a bottle and it is flowing yet you quickly tilt the bottle and the water halts and starts flowing the other direction, that's how it is to me. Now water is smooth, yet when you halt the flow and change direction, there are moments where the flow is interrupted, that's how I feel when I hear Arabic. Like I said it is subjective and this Turkish just was a shock, I didn't realise it was so smooth

[@thefingerofgod69]

Rusdani Budi Wicaksono That’s the one I thought this was going to be. Imagine my surprise when I heard Turkish instead of Japanese. I’ll be honest, I find his work even more beautiful than the Japanese examples I saw a friend make one time.

[@esmad6187]

I love your videos. I am happy about see a Turkish in this channel. I love Ebru. It is an important art for our culture.

[@Ash-ii4hg]

Great Big Story is my favorite type of journalism- sort of videos. I love how diverse it is and each video always is intriguing without getting overly political. It’s nice to watch them when so many things are going wrong this year. Good job to the channel!

[@JustCallMeElle]

I can watch those paintings being painted all day. Watching it seems relaxing.

[@beaudanner]

That blew my mind. I'd love to see more on the process of transferring to paper. But also to see them transform from one image to the next was amazing, in not only beauty, but temporariness

[@silyu97]

you can just check his youtube channel. search for garip ay

[@SatishKumar41]

That's incredible talent out there. This artist shown in the video and the art of painting on water - Ebru needs to be appreciated. Hats off for this amazing talent 🙌🙏

[@selinali1500]

[@francesleones4973]

His art is stunning. They're so beautiful.

[@a7c777]

I had a science teacher from turkey that started an Ebru club. It was so fun, but the paint and chemicals had this unique smell that I’ll never forget

[@huntress1013]

I could watch easily an hour of this just with some music. So relaxing.

[@Kenesbek]

Draws well on the water , Merhaba in Kazakhstan Turkish brothers

[@Ada-on8yy]

This brings me back to when my mum would do this- We called it "Marbling" because of the effect it had on the paper. She just did it mindlessly, and it always turned out being so beautiful. She never aimed for something, like Ebru does, but it was a beautiful representation of colour.

[@bkxoxoxlsdlxlckksldlxlxl4891]

The fact that he lives in Turkey makes everything even more meaningful. As a Turkish artist its so difficult to just live here. People are so far from art, and it's culture. You are so brave for incooperating traditional ebru with the classics Garip Ay. I wish i can learn ebru from you.

[@gloriathewierdperson7171]

Imagine watching someone do this or trying to do it while high.

[@kubrasoysal929]

He is veryyy talented artist. I tried to make ‘ebru’. It was so hard. Cause paint spread verry quickly. You must control this. But ıt was funny. I want to try again.

[@harriotteworthington3147]

It's like art and physics combined. Hard to master one or the other, sheer genius to bridle both simultaneously. No one can reach the heights of Garip Ay - so don't frustrate yourself! Keep playing, "go with the flow". Enjoy the experience in the moment, just have fun.
