M8 (Jan Matejak) - Let me share something about the word "talent" that's thrown around a lot. I often hear people say, "I can't paint or draw because I have no talent for it." Can you learn to paint without being born with talent? Absolutely, YES!
Yes, you might be thinking that's not the case, and I get it. I used to believe that artistic talent was something you had to be born with, too. But after 20 years of painting, I've completely changed my mind.
Painting is a skill, much like any other craft, and I firmly believe anyone can learn it! Sure, those with natural talent might pick it up quicker and find it easier, but talent alone won't get you far without the drive to learn, hard work, and persistence. Talent means nothing without effort and determination. So, grab that brush and start creating—anyone can do it!

I Broke Every Rule I Know… and I Loved It 😅🎨
This time, I did something absolutely wild. I ditched everything I usually do — no imprimatura, no underpainting, and I picked a subject I’ve never painted before. Total chaos… and total freedom. 😎
I love pushing myself out of the comfort zone and diving head-first into experiments that break all the rules. That’s how you grow, learn, and rediscover your passion for painting.
And yes — I filmed everything. The result? Let’s just say… you won’t believe how it turned out. 👀🔥

Hello my Mates !
I wanted to ask for your opinion on something. Over the past year, I’ve come across several ASMR videos that really caught my attention. Listening to someone whisper as I fall asleep turned out to be way more relaxing than the loud music I’ve been blasting into my headphones my whole life.
So here’s my question:
What if I tried making a video with my usual voiceover—but instead of speaking normally, I whisper the whole thing? Do you think that could work?
I’m curious—what’s your take on the whole ASMR concept? Should I give it a shot?
Let me know what you think—drop a comment and share your thoughts!

Hey there, art friends! I’m absolutely thrilled to announce that I’ve just put the finishing touches on my layered pink-rose painting. You might remember seeing me lay down that gray underpainting and that very first burst of color on my channel—well, now I’m gearing up for an all-new workshop where I’ll walk you through how I built up the next color layers and brought the whole piece to life. Expect plenty of tips and a deep dive into my finishing techniques. The brand-new video drops very soon, so grab your brushes, pour yourself a cup of coffee, and stay tuned—can’t wait to see you there, my creative mates!

Friends, I’m not slacking off—I’m working on several paintings simultaneously! Soon, I’ll be sharing new workshops with you. The first one features a yellow rose I painted in just two layers. I’m also finally finishing a pink rose that has taken 5 layers so far. I wish everyone a wonderful Christmas, and thank you so much for your support on my YouTube channel! I’m so grateful to have all of you here.
