🚨It’s finally here - my very first MEGA PRINT DROP! 💫 8 new fine art prints, available only for the next 72 hours (October 17–20) at www.alpayefe.com (link in bio)✨
Each of these paintings is really close to my heart, because they represent everything that makes me the artist I am today. I’ve always had a love for so many different things - fine art, storytelling, anime, games, and movies - even if they seem unconnected on the surface. Art is everywhere, and inspiration is everywhere 🙌
For a while, I honestly thought I was creating this almost just for myself 😂 because these worlds don’t usually go together. But after connecting with so many of you lately, reading your messages, comments, and DMs, I realized how many people feel exactly the same way.
So this release is for all of us ❤️
Thank you so much for being here and for supporting my work. It really means the world.
This is what most artists look like at the end of the week after juggling a million hats as artists and creatives. And that’s exactly the problem I dive into in my last video.
Might be one of the most important videos I’ve made for artists in 2025.
If you’ve ever felt like making art is the easy part, and it’s everything else that drains you… this one’s for you.
Jose is really bringing something new to the table with his video series "the price of art" and I highly encourage you to head over to his channel and check his videos out.
We talked about all kinds of different art related topics.... but all real talk!!!😄 Something that's increasingly hard to find these days. Check it out and let me know how you like it and if you would like to see more videos like that in the future?
Tomorrow I’ll be joining Florent Farges for a little painting live stream. You can catch us at youtube.com/@FlorentFargesarts/streams Friday 19th, 8pm Berlin Time. See ya there 🫶
Also this Saturday I’ll be releasing a crazy new video with an insane Giveaway… it’s… well, you’ll see 😂
It’s not flashy, it’s not fast paced, it’s not “big”. It’s just me making art and telling stories for two of my paintings that I wrote myself 😅
For a long time now I have felt the need (maybe even responsibility) to explore ways to make art content that gets people excited for art beyond the mere surface Level (color, technique, etc).
So I decided to try out a completely new form of art content in which I share the stories for two of my most recent paintings (And I actually wrote the 2 stories myself 😳)
The bigger point, I guess, is how little room social media gives us to share, experience and talk about other aspects of art which are in most cases infinitely more important than technique, skill, etc…
Although I already kinda know that hardly anyone will be interested in this video I felt the need to at least try to get people interested in and inspired by these kinds of things 🫶. And if you do end up watching the video I would genuinely love to know what you thought about it! The stories, the concept l, the paintings…
If it helps to get you excited I can tell you this much: Both paintings feature my “actual” genuine signature painting style and it’s these kinds of paintings that people connect with most and buy in a heartbeat…
If you haven't seen my video about the state of online art, the future of art on YouTube, and why your favorite artists are making fewer videos these days, go and check it out! It explores all of those topics and delves deep into the whole subject to shed some light on this new development! 🖼️🔍
I'm a bit surprised, to be honest, that the video hasn't reached more people, as it's such a significant issue that affects so many of us! I would have thought that more artists and creators would seize the opportunity to voice their opinions and thoughts and encourage community building... but hey, what do I know. And maybe we're actually already past the point of no return and looking at the end of online art and art communities...
I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this topic! 💬
And remember, let's support each other, engage in discussions, and uplift our fellow artists in the community. We're all in this together! 🤝✨
I can't tell you how excited I am to finally announce the release of my brand new print collection: FineArt Fairytales!
These are only the first in this new series of paintings in which I will revisit some classic fairytales and I couldn’t be more excited! This is one of my recent favorite projects and working on it over the past few months was an absolute artist joy 🤩!!!
Grab yourself a print over at alpayefe.com/store
Check out the Full video!!! And if you could leave a like and a comment to fight the YouTube algorithm i would appreciate that tremendously 🙏🫶
Thank you all for the continued support!!! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all of you and I’m very grateful to have you all along for the ride 🤗
As promised in my last Jelly Gouache video this painting is getting a new home 🫶 Thank you all for the comments and for the great response… you really all made my day!!!
Congrats and a round of applause to @TurtleKun (awesome name btw) for the perfect comment to go along with the video!!! 🙌😂 Please reach out to me in a DM on Instagram or via Mail so we can get this possessed painting as quickly as possible out of the studio and into your home.
And if you haven’t seen the latest video in which I paint a real-life version of a classic character, I HIGHLY recommend you do! It’s basically yours truly vs. Disney 😁

I have NO talent!
…And I still became one of the most followed artists in the world.
Check out the new video if you haven’t already, featuring some of my old art, insights into how I got to the point I am today and new art materials 😄
I really believe that there’s no such thing as talent but if there is I don’t think I have it 😂

My newest video is honestly a big experiment!
It’s not flashy, it’s not fast paced, it’s not “big”. It’s just me making art and telling stories for two of my paintings that I wrote myself 😅

WARNING ⚠️
I HAVE NOT PICKED A WINNER FOR MY MOST RECENT GIVEAWAY AND I WILL ONLY ANNOUNCE THE WINNER HERE IN A COMMUNITY POST!!!!!
There are once again scammers and fake accounts with my profile picture replying to comments! It a big issue for many creators currently!
PLEASE do not answer any of these! I would never ask you to contact me like this! If you come across one of these, feel free to report/flag them!
I will try to delete and block them so I get this under control again 😅
Hope you’re all doing well out there!
