- Title: Paint like František Kupka - Abstract figure painting
The Czech artist Frantisek Kupka was at first painting representational artwork but later gradually switch to abstract. He is known for his colorful artwork like a self-portrait in yellows. In this how to paint like Kupka I show you how to paint like Kupka, or at least give you the tools to do so. You can literally copy his artwork but also paint inspired by his artwork in your own style, like I do. I make a figurative artwork and also an abstract line painting.

In almost all my videos I use with Winsor&Newton Galeria acrylics, if not, I will say so in the video.
Other materials I use are in random order: 5, 10 and 40mm brushes, palette knives, acrylics medium, Ecoline liquid watercolor, Lyra color pencils, Lyra soft pastels, oil pastels, Stabilo color pencils, paper palette pad and basic masking tape. I also use household items like a permanent marker, scrub sponge, scissors, paper towel, and so on.

Absolutely wonderful interpretation! Please more videos with lines and geometric patterns. Thank you for sharing your technics!
Thanks Myo Qi, I like them too. When browsing around on the channel you can find a number of them but under several different names. Good luck on your hunt 😉👍 Albert
absolutely loved this one. I have never heard of this artist. Thank you for introducing a new fave to me!
Thanks Serece. I prefer the artists just below/beyond the top 50 most popular. There is so much beauty, creativity and fun to discover besides the usual suspects. Albert
Gracias por compartir Conocimientos.
Abrazo desde Uruguay 🇺🇾
Thanks, Jorge. Happy painting, Albert
I love this.
Thanks Mary
Thank you for great video!!!!
Hi Kyoung, thanks. Do you like to paint as well? Albert
wunderful!
I love Kupka!!!
Hi Rose, thanks. Did you like him already or do now because of the video? Bye, Albert
first an "Arte" documetation and then I spezically searched for Kupka
Intetesting to hear, thanks. Do you paint as well? Albert
@@ImperfectPaintings :)yes, I like it, but I'm only learning it
Rose
Yes, great. You will get better by doing it more, you will get the best result when playing and enjoying yourself 😁👍
Nice, thank you sir
Thanks RJ
I really like your channel! Thank your sharing it to us!
Hi Hui, thanks. Are you a painter too? Albert
@@ImperfectPaintings I am just a beginner 😘
@@whgzbj that's nice. You will have lots to see and play with. Happy painting, Albert
@@ImperfectPaintings Thanks. I really enjoy it😘
By all means please do more Kupka inspired paintings.
Hi Maria, thanks for your clear message. I will. It's an interesting way of looking at abstract by taken one art element to focus on. Bye, Albert
Yaaay, you featured Czech painter! :) I enjoyed this video very much and intend to make Kupka style painting of my own (can't resist the sponge technique). Many of Kupka's artwork can be found in Museum Kampa in Prague, which unfortunatelly caught on fire this year. Hopefully they will be able to save most of them.
Hi Lucie, thanks. Yes, the fire was on the news here too, terrible. I hope it work out well. Enjoy the sponge technique. Albert
Great video! It inspires a new adventure in painting. I would like to see more of Kupka. Thank you! ❤️
Hi Franca, thanks. Nice to hear you would like to see some more Kupka. I'll see what I can do. Bye, Albert
Greetings Albert. Thanks so much for opening my eyes on Kupka. Also, thanks for the presentation and deconstruction of his work. I can imagine the demand in time and effort that you generously put into producing this lesson. Here is a couple of suggestions for future sessions: Pierre Soulage and Frank Klein! Thanks again and have a good day!
Hi Salim, thanks. Kupka is very interesting, soon I will do another one on him about the lines in his artwork. It takes a lot of work indeed, but most of the time I enjoy diving into every subject or artist. Thanks for pointing me to Pierre Soulage. But Frank Klein I can't find. Perhaps you mean Franz Kline? Enjoy your day. Bye, Albert
Imperfect Paintings yes I meant Frank Kline. Auto- correction screws things sometimes
Funny! Autocorrect did it again 😉
I'd never heard of Kupka, but really enjoyed his art, and your ideas and instructions. I took a few painting courses in college, but I don't think I learned much from them. I learned how to stretch a canvas and a few other rules and principles, but not much about technique. For that I've had to learn that myself, and by watching YT videos, which have been a great learning tool. I'd be curious on how to make more lines. It was interesting how you taped those two pencils together to make parallel lines. Also using that sponge to get that splotchy technique was interesting too. I've noticed that some artist must use tape to make sharper hard-edged type lines or at least that's what it looks like to me. I'm wondering if that is the case or there's a specific tool to create something like that. Thanks for the video.
Hi Culture Fan, thanks. Interesting artist indeed. He is well known in the eastern part of Europe and in France and not really picked up by collectors across the Atlantic. Technique can be interesting but also common sense or practical. I will do another one on lines.
Bye, Albert
Very interesting methods.Thanks, Albert.
Hi Philna, thanks. Enjoy using them yourself too. Bye, Albert
Wow! It was great🤙🏻yes I like to see more about lines thank you
Hi Maryam, thanks. More lines coming soon. They are so interesting. Bye, Albert
so cool and inspiring! thank you for sharing!
Hi Simi, thanks. Bye, Albert
frantisek kupka
Its look very good Albert, i like it! You have so mutch inspiration in you.
I mis the course, i have no inspiration at all to put a Pencil in my hand 🙀 i like to watch yours
Hi J. Thanks. Yes, the painting course Looking forward to it myself too. In the mean time you can see me do the work, maybe it helps too. And you meet some artists on the way too. Bye, Albert
Imperfect Paintings where can I find information about your course please?
Hi Ксения, thanks for asking but I'm sorry, it's a local in-real-life painting course in the Netherlands. It starts at the end of September (when all things go well) and I make a video of all the lessons. You can see at that time. In the mean time stay safe and enjoy painting. Bye, Albert
Imperfect Paintings thank you kindly for your answer! All the best!
Yes, I’d like to see more lines please. The eye seems to follow lines so easily, but the eye has to be able to make sense of their patterns. Not so easy after all.
Hi Denise, thanks. And yes, you're correct. Deceptively simple but when you try it yourself it turns out to be more complex. That's also the fun in the challenge, looking closely at original artwork. Coming soon. Bye, Albert
hi, when you say you dilute your medium 3:1 which way round do you mean 3 parts water or 3 parts medium, thanks for your time I enjoy your channel
Hi Moonie, haha, I was wondering who would ask for it. I use 1 part medium and 3 or 4 parts water. I take a small water bottle, pour the medium in it add the water and shake a little. I also bought some squeeze bottles, works great. Hope this helps. By, Albert
"Painting lines?" I would prefer to see you teach how to paint like Munter. I love her paintings and she doesn't get the credit that she should.
Hi Randall, thanks for your comment. Gabrielle Munter (I guess you mean her) is on my list. I'm still looking for a way to present her art. Thanks for suggesting her. Bye, Albert
Bedankt voor de mooie video Albert! Zou je misschien ook weer een keer iets met expressionistisch abstract kunnen doen? Ik zag pas een kunstenaar op internet, maar ben de naam vergeten....(ook een bekend overleden persoon) Alvast bedankt mocht je ooit de tijd hebben!
Hallo Ellen, bedankt. Abstract expressionist zijn er niet zoveel. Ik heb e al een aantal gedaan. Komende zondag komt er weer eentje langs. Weet je nog iets van het schilderij? Ik hoor graag als het je weer te binnen schiet. Albert
@@ImperfectPaintings Het was een kunstenaar met een heleboel schilderijen....zodra ik het weet, hoor je het.....bedankt :)
Deal. Ik wacht af.
@@ImperfectPaintings Albert ik heb haar gevonden: Helen Frankenthaler. Vooral een schilderij uit 1951 "untitled" vond ik erg mooi. Op Google vindt je veel van haar. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Frankenthaler
