What are your thoughts on digital art?

[@monjue4459]

i love it.. like you say, you can take it everywhere. plus financially its helped me alot!

[@tiagodagostini]

I bought a Wacon to try it and still it eludes me. The complete control you have can be both a blessing as a curse. It is hard to make things feel natural when nothing slips by itself, you cannot make a mistake. You never need to live with and adapt around something that did not went as planned. The result always feel stiff when I try it :/

[@Jules_Pew]

I use it mainly to work out compositions and lighting. Having everything on different layers is great.

[@jayanand555]

It's awesome...

[@levivolaju883]

Revolutionary but will not make the traditional way obsolete

[@Ruby0794]

Love how you are wearing your apron for digital art! ❤️

[@AlpayEfe]

🤣

[@johnthomas3677]

Hah! I had the exact same thought 💭 🙃

[@RenanPietroniro]

Same! lmao But I mean, some softwares feel really alike to traditional art (Like CSP if you are going to a traditional look), so I guess just makes the feel more alike lol

[@Xzen_]

Lol

[@ShaneRoseARamos]

LOL

[@CrochetFiberArt]

I'm a 66 year old woman who's been creating art since I was a teenager. I have MS. Over the last several years I've ruined more painting and drawings then I care to say. My problem is that the nerves in my hands and arms jump - ripped paper, ruined canvas. This last September I was ready to quite completely. A friend suggested I try digital art, so I am now learning the whole digital process. The "Undo Brush Stroke" is my best friend, lol. No more tears, just a giggle and a click. I'm enjoying watching you create digital art. Thank you.

[@a.b9893]

Your passion and determination to create love is moving. Hope you create many more beautiful pieces.

[@frostbittenarts]

I've always been intimidated because of the 10,000 different settings, brushes, effects... this was great to see how not to be overwhelmed and just try it. And of course yours came out beautiful. :)

[@RajaFong]

Yeah having too many brush options was always a struggle. After years I’ve narrowed it down to a soft edge square brush and a soft round brush. I’ve found you accomplish most things with just those two

[@hazydroid]

I use even less tools than Alpay. You really don't need to be afraid of being minimal.

[@nouraabdalrahman2682]

I think procreate is better in this area the user interface look clean and simpler

[@CJShopland_Art]

@@nouraabdalrahman2682 procreate you can save brushes to favourites, I have about 10 in there and four I use often

[@raptoranimations8486]

I have a suggestion if you use autodust sketchbook first it’s a good stepping stone on the path It only takes about 3to4 days to figure out and then you can move on to something like procreate it takes like a 2 weeks to a month to figure everything out but you can start drawing right away with both of them

[@SweatiestDegree]

This is the perfect example of art being (mostly) in the knowledge you have on color, light form etc. It's a medium the artist behind it is what makes it shine!

[@terrancevanliew1814]

While true, certain mediums are harder to adjust to than others.

[@abdillahazhar1833]

You paint traditionally like it was made digitally. Yet, you paint digitally like it was traditionally painted. Same difference, consistent results. Awesome as always!

[@riyapremani]

[@cutehoney14]

And here once again we have proof that Art is not tied to a medium (neither traditional or digital or else) and its not dependent on which medium you are using but rather on your skills and your idea. Great picture by the way 😇

[@deniselisboa1]

wonderful! one thing i love about digital art is how there isnt a "wrong" way to proceed. you can limit your tools within a software and it's fine, if you are comfortable with your process, it's perfect :) you have full control of everything so you can choose where you wanna go next, and if you are scared of ruining your work it's easy to do another layer or save a backup. it's like your own little artistic world, and you are god 😎 i love the portrait you did, clip studio paint is a very nice software.

[@STFUppercut69]

The result was crazy good. I wouldn't mind seeing more digital stuff! I just hope that the rest of your audience, who is used to traditional art, wouldn't mind it either.

[@Davasto89]

I think you got the key element right here. painting digitally lowers the effort, speeds up the process, so you can make more art and learn and improve more. That's what it has done for me too. I got lost of the fear of messing up, and transferred this to physical drawings, which was a huge game changer

[@DeepLife]

In India its said just cause its a cub doesnt mean its not a lion’s 🦁 baby . Similarly even though you tried digital doesnt mean you arent on pro max level as an artist . Turned out wonderful

[@AlpayEfe]

I like that saying!

[@jabir5768]

Its literally his job therefore making him a professional

[@Yuzuki1337]

@Every Man's Queen You clearly have no idea about what it's like to be an artist

[@GalaxysDragon]

Absolutely stunning! It goes to show when you have developed the skills in traditional it translates well to digital. Your oil paintings and this digital painting are gorgeous!!! Seriously inspiring.

[@jillellen2631]

Wow. Since I'm from the old school, this really blows my mind. Imagine what the old masters would have thought of this! Beautiful first try Alpay. Thank you for another great video!!

[@annemariekeboer394]

This looks amazing!! Makes me wanna try digital art!

[@AlpayEfe]

Go for it 🙌

[@jeffreyhicks6380]

@@AlpayEfe I second this

[@lizashah6243]

I like how you’re still wearing an apron

[@igavinwood]

It's been over a decade since I used any digital image programmes professionally. Love the look of this. From back in the day the key was always about masking and layers. I couldn't say if it is still but may be worth checking. All the best Alpay

[@maxwell_design_studios]

That’s merely one way of creating digital art! It’s so much more than that. You can create a painting from start to finish on only one layer with one brush if you want. However that being said layers are fantastic and can really help the process especially if you want to experiment without ruining all your work prior

[@LiobaBrueckner]

Absolutely gorgeous painting! 😍

[@SoSme]

I like seeing artists using new mediums and tools keep doing what u doing cuz it works

[@kerenvalentin7082]

That was spectacular!! Thanks to you I'm not feeling so intimidated any longer. I will give it a try and see what comes out. Thank you.

[@sagaaxelart8805]

""Digital Amateur"" he says and walks out with such beautiful art. Man you have no idea how much you inspire with your videos. you generate a unique artistic feedback, motivating to go for new challenges and try new things. sometimes one for work or orders ends up being pigeonholed artistically, but your work and its variety, always with your touch, is inspiring.

[@lacrosse782]

Please keep posting some digital art! Love seeing the different process!

[@flaviavicentin]

Great video, encouraging! I fell in love with digital art last year, and now I can't imagine living without it! I don't even know how to use all the thousands of features that the programs offer, but I am learning gradually, and you know what? I think that taking this step has accelerated my learning curve and I am getting results that I never got before, even in traditional art! The experience has been wonderful and I am glad to hear that you have enjoyed this first contact as well! Have fun with this amazing tool!

[@musschelle]

I agree with everything you said! I tried digital painting last year and I have learned so much! Things I’ve learned from it I applied to traditional and vice versa. Awesome work as always!

[@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro]

Your videos are amazing, Alpay! Thanks for sharing! I'm a huge fan of yours! Cheers from Brazil!

[@urstalkerkekeke3481]

The way he holds and stroke the pen is very traditional which I think elegant to behold.

Wow für dein erstes digitales Bild ist es verdammt gut geworden! Wäre ne interessante Video Serie wo du verschiedene Materialien ausprobieren würdest :)

[@AlpayEfe]

Wenn das hier gut ankommt denk ich drüber nach 😁

[@meshamichi03]

You did an amazing job, I switched to digital in 2018 and I am still learning so many application tricks/settings to improve my artwork and yeah digital medium is good in many ways specially for those who can't afford expensive traditional art supplies.

[@mozhgansobhan1323]

You're an amazing and professional artist so no matter the medium you always make such wonderful arts ❤❤

[@gambartv9246]

So beautiful. Will wait to see another digital painting video of yours.

[@jagiarts]

Really great video and art! Would love to see more digital pieces in the future from you.🙏

[@NicoBirknicnoc]

Digital painting is great, has some huge advantage but one thing you simply can't change is playing with thick colours that create structure sure you can select a brush that creates a structure but it simply isn't the same as controlling where you want really thick paint overlaying also for me personally I just like handling a brush on a huge canvas with a stroke that I can control way better than a thin pencil on a small touch screen

[@madeleine4725]

Look’s like you nailed this too! Beautiful painting, Alpay!

[@catalinamaria4014]

You did so well Alpay!

[@chloebrownart]

Hey Alpay, so good to see another video :) I started with procreate on my ipad in 2019 and have been slowly learning through play and work. it won't replace traditional methods for me but gives a total flexible approach for different projects I can stop and start.

[@uberjap2184]

I love your art traditional or digital, you are just amazing!

[@Kamila0387]

Hello! I always wanted to see you do digital art and you donit very well! Good job!!

[@romaingiov7401]

Your brushwork is astonishing.

[@OrvilleWorrell]

I've been using clip studio for months and didn't know it had a time-lapse function, amazing! thank you

[@e.j.campfield-ateliervisua6913]

This was a highly enjoyable video, great watching you work. I've been using a hybrid technique for a couple years, something I call "Digital with Traditional Mixed Media on Canvas." I start with traditional acrylic on card for the background elements, make a hi-rez scan of it, and go to work digitally painting the main subject. Then I have the file output to a semi-gloss canvas giclee on stretcher, switching back to traditional paint to add final details right on the giclee. Finish it out with a heavy semi-gloss Z-Gel coat and trace over all the brush strokes to give it added texture and dimension. Hope you'll do some more videos using digital art. Fascinating to watch how you translate your traditional painter skills into digital technique.

[@SaharRazavi]

Such a unique style, absolutely stunning 😍😍😍

[@Unamatrix01]

That is a fantastic first attempt at creating digital art. The result shows the skill transference from traditional art tools to digital tools.

[@supbirdy]

Your penmanship transfers nicely!! Cant wait to see what its like after 1 year of consistency

[@santone1849]

So nice . Great to see you experimented with digital . I started using digital because of time constraints no where near as good as you . . It has definitely helped with my traditional media paintings too . As you say almost unlimited experimentation

[@DZFilmmaker]

Danke Alpay. Du bist einer der inspirierendsten Personen. Nach jedem Video von dir verspüre ich so eine Lust zu malen! Danke und Grüße aus dem Süden.

[@rebeccahowe9979]

[@AbePassmore]

I find your channel inspirational. I am a computer science student who recently took up art to get away from the computer. I have fallen passionately in love will oil paint as well as watercolor and find your art to be fresh, beautiful and unique. It's nice to see an art channel that's art first and social media second. Thanks for what you do. P.S. I would love to see you try watercolor at some point. I think you would like the luminosity and spontaneity you can achieve.

[@vida_winter]

Wow it's amazing!

[@erickcruz603]

In The setup thank you so much!

[@seanlennes5069]

Gorgeous. Looks like incredibly fun and capable software. Putting your style into it has no doubt lead to some sales of the program. Maybe a good practice medium? You know what the heck you’re doing, and it’s awesome.

[@jeffhreid]

Good video. I especially appreciate how the focus is the work and artistic process rather than the technology. I haven’t tried digital art mostly because I find the technology intimidating

[@buddhabirrai6000]

thanks sir i do love digital art too and anual much the way you demonstrate is most best which i do love so much and your motivational videos are too luveli

[@ReubenLara]

Nice! Another huge advantage of digital: flipping your canvas horizontally to make errors more apparent. View > Rotate/Flip > Flip Horizontal. I mapped one of my Edge Keyboard T keys to it, and with a simple thumb press I can easy and quickly flip while I’m drawing or painting.

[@glowingcrowns1692]

Digital art definitely have a learning curb. But give it time. I feel it's very rewarding. It took me a year to get comfortable

[@rickylangthasa2942]

Just so beautiful ❤️

[@JoeMenjivar]

I very much enjoy painting in clip studio, as someone with not a lot of space or money for paints it's been very useful for learning to paint these last couple of years. One day I might make the leap to physical paints.

[@ahamartist9492]

Hey Alpay! Don't forget about the clipping mask option on softwares. Really useful and time saving.

I enjoy all kinds of art, and I'm not fussed about what kinds of tools are used. Although I will say, digital doesn't work so well for those focusing on ASMR videos lol. Traditional tools definitely are the best performer in that regard.

[@audreyluan5325]

I usually hand draw the drawing, ink it first, and then use my alcohol markers to make a color pallet before I upload into digital art so I can experiment with the palette I chose.

I love your work I am a traditional artist and honestly carrying around my materials here and there could be hectic because i got a new job that demands i work in an office space. I really want to draw, but cant bring out my sketch pad and colors. So i figure out the best thing to do is get an Ipad and keep creating. The wow factor for me is that i don't need to buy paints after wasting them on digital art😃. Art has evolved and digital Art is NOW

[@ruinroadie]

I started working digitally for over 15 years ago. And Iam never going back- traditional workflows are fun, but digital is my default. :D I had the dream to buy a wacom cintiq someday (I've worked only on the intuos model ever since) but the ipad pro is the best tool for an (digital) artist! As you mentioned- the freedom of taking it with you wherever you go is just awesome! I also like the fact, that you can collect your reference library on the device with you. Another perk of the digital workflow is that you can actually mirror your image- that helps you to detect weakspots of your composition and gives you a "fresh" view on your WIPs.

[@jeffreyhicks6380]

Been learning how to paint for about three months now and I’ve just got an iPad and Procreate so that I could paint on the go. But now all I do is “paint” on the iPad and I gotta say, it’s been a way more enjoyable experience for me personally.
