[@danaywang]

I was in tears when I see the painting coming together. Such a fantastic job. Thank you for doing this so we can have an idea of how the painting was done back then.

[@rinsamara278]

The best reproduction I've seen so far. The dedication and actual execution is high level. Seeing the process makes you love art so much more!

Was für eine Arbeitich glaube das kopieren ist weitaus schwieriger wie das Orginal zu maken👍👍❣️

Absolut, es braucht viel Konzentration und Geduld. :)

[@billybaker1882]

Hi Marc. Love this. How did you get the distressed look? I’ve tried applying white spirit vinegar over the gold leaf with a brush but I can’t get anywhere near the same effect I.e. the random patina and colours you have. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[@marcalexander5400]

Hi Billy, I laid the painting flat on the ground and put a lot of vinegar on it. Then I let it dry overnight and washed it off with water the next day. Hope this helps. :)

[@billybaker1882]

Hi Marc. It worked. Thanks very much 👍

[@gloriahallal6675]

amazing 💟🌹💟perfect!!

[@schischiyuriroche1226]

Wow Respekt und mit viel Herz gemacht

[@Mechinetta]

Very well done!! May I ask you what did you use to make the textured circles at 3' 17"? Is that a kind of glue? Thanks for your answer! Bravo!

[@MariahFan09]

Amazing. I want to create the exact same way and keep it in my house. Wonder what this guy did with it and how much he sold it for.

[@marcalexander5400]

Thank you Glacier8, you can find me at www.marcalexanderart.com. or email me at [e-mail] if you are interested in a commission. :)

[@tsiraberadze7022]

Marc Alexander How can I make those swirls? What substance did you use? Please answer:)

[@marcalexander5400]

Good morning, tsira beradze. I made up a water based texture paste, which consists of one third Talc powder, one third Podge (that they use for decoupage) and one third artist white acrylic. I then coloured the paste by adding a little yellow ochre acrylic. Keep in mind that you cannot use a water based paint over an oil base. :)

[@ВикторЛебедев-р5д]

Подскажите, пожалуйста, как приготовить такой же раствор для выпуклых элементов. На видео плохо видно

[@marcalexander5400]

Виктор Лебедев, Посмотрите это видео: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaSlZayMqqubh68 Или следуйте по этой ссылке www.marcalexanderart.com/gold-leaf-gilding-image/. :)

[@NicolaWalster]

Hi Marc. I was wondering if you have used silver leaf on the cloth as well as the gold?

[@marcalexander5400]

Hi Nicola. Yes, I have used silver and gold leaf on this reproduction. :)

[@NicolaWalster]

Thanks for taking the time to answer Marc :)

[@cindychristian1700]

Wonderful. Truly I mean it!!👏😍👍!!

[@juliancruztv2675]

Hi, Ive been thinking of attempting this same reproduction aswell and would be great if I could get some tips from you.

[@luminor0077]

Really nice : ) how did you seal the gold leaf ? was that a picture of the pink liquid in the glass jar that you brushed over it at the end? 6:51

[@marcalexander5400]

Yes, luminor007. It is a glaze medium made of one third refined Linseed oil, one third Liquin and one third Genuine Turpentine.

[@berengerlefort8612]

Hey, what do you think about the reals techniques used by Klimt, in HD google art we can see very close and i think for the background it's 2 layers of oil paint with gold fragments spread on + some touchs of gold paint; and for embossed things he carve into a thickness and not create the spiral. Very nice job anyway.

[@alexrichbourg2080]

How long did it take you to paint this?

[@marcalexander5400]

350 - 400 hours!

[@katharinamarschall5662]

I don't want to know how much the gold did cost you for a huge painting like this.

[@josephsaurio]

Hermoso

[@anastasia1291]

3:08 (Dala ..rodge 5L?) sorry, what is it?👱‍♀️

[@marcalexander5400]

Hi, @anastasia1291, it's actually 'Podge' a product used in decoupage. Dala is a South African brand. It is what gives the texture paste its flexibility. :)

[@anastasia1291]

@@marcalexander5400 Thank you very much)) for your answer🖼🎨🙏

[@jaroslawrimek5107]

Superb copy, can explain your technique and the products used (pieces of gold leaf, paint) for the realization of the background.

[@madelynlongoria7196]

Inefable ❤

[@minivipers]

why dont you use a surgery gloves for gold paper not stick to your hands???

[@marcalexander5400]

Because it gives me more control to just use my fingers. I do have to clean them regularly with thinners or turpentine though.

[@urbanchili]

I was impressed until the signature was faked.

[@marcalexander5400]

IW. The whole painting is copied/reproduced (or faked as you say), so what difference does it make if I add the signature? I'm not trying to hide that fact or pass it off as a Klimt original, and if I was, why would I freely share this video with you and many others? I take inspiration from Klimt's work and I have learnt a great deal from the many hours it took to reproduce this painting. :) This is my tribute to a creative master!
