What goes on in your mind I have no idea. It's a strange mystical place. But your absolute mastery of executing various surfaces and materials like pewter, gold, brass, wood, leather, feathers, scales and everything in between is a joy to behold. I wish I had 10% of your talent. You're a genius Greg.
Yo - this guy spends a ton of time on details of an octopus arm then pants over it with another character. That is what makes these paintings so amazing - high quality through and through. Even though you can't see it I know there is a stairway that leads up into one of the background mountains. It just adds so much more to the painting knowing all the detail that goes into even the parts we don't see. So awesome!!!
Simply incredible, it brings me absolute joy to watch you paint! Your attention to detail and highlights is unmatched! I hope you continue to share your vision with fans for years to come 🎨 🖌
I just watched an hour long video of somebody speed painting and never even noticed the time. Each part of the painting is a painting in itself. I love the anticipation of figuring out what I’m seeing as the layers develop. “What’s that thing coming out of the tunnel? Oh, it’s a white bird snake!“ This is brilliant.
One of the greatest paintings I ever seen, been a huge fan for a long time, always so technically beautiful, I was in amazement watching the part with the fabric on the windmill, it could of been a video 5 hours long I would of still watched the whole thing without skipping it was that enjoyable to watch.
I just want to say that I love your work. I have learned so much about texturing and layering just by watching your videos. Also your use of the hair dryer to dry the paint faster so you can keep working is genius.
Your mind must be a weird and wondrous place Greg, I can't even imagine the thought process you go through on a minute by minute basis when you create these thoroughly amazing paintings ... just please keep creating them.
I work as a janitor at a bodyshop, but love to paint and draw what's in my imagination. I love to look at your paintings. Your talent helps my creativity recharge whenever I'm having struggles creating. They are beautiful and detailed. Your subject matter fulfills a niche that many of us dont get to see in traditional art.
As someone who loves to use acrylics, I find your work so inspiring! I love how dynamic your compositions are and especially appreciate all the delicate details with texture and light. It's easy to get caught up in the mundane but your paintings transport me to other worlds like in the stories I read or movies I saw growing up. I love watching your process because in some ways, it is very different to my own, and this has prompted me to try some new ways of doing things. Having watched quite a lot of your videos now, it was really cool seeing various characters from previous stories making an appearance here. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
It's so beautiful it's almost emotional! It's like your literally bringing to life the characters I could watch you for ever. Best painting I've ever seen. Unbelievable!
Diese wunderbare Fantasie zu besitzen, ist die eine Sache, sie aber so gekonnt und Detailverliebt auf die Leinwand zu bringen, eine andere. Sie haben ein großartiges Talent.
One of the very best of our time. Whenever I watch his videos, I am changed. Why? It has to do with the ability to create masterpieces out of thin air, something God does I believe.. As an artist myself, I must apologise as I am often times heard by my wife cussing at you through the computer screen. She''ll ask why and I'll just say , "Greg is insulting me again with his arrogant brush strokes. And the beings he creates, they come to life. They are cruel little creatures who like to mock the way I paint. And all i can think to say is f@#k-n-a out loud 3 or 4 times to clear the air. The world hasn't caught up with him yet, which is why I'm saving for some of this radiant beauty. Thanks for sharing brother keep up with the journey.
Stuff like this is what makes me wonder what people in the far future will think. Do we have great artists of our time? Or will it be discovered and appreciated decades later just like our history. Preserve your art well, who knows who will find it one day
This is such a long video - I need to skip - but ... I ... can't ... take ... my .... eyes ... off!!!! I love watching someone bring what's in their mind into life. What an awesome painting.
Honestly thought that was a real keyboard/piano keys in the thumbnail and that you'd painted around it to incorporate it into the painting, your talent is on another level! 👀
From Jess Karp i admire so much your talent. Your prospective art vision Is so skilled and freack out. Thanks share your vibe music to boost Inspiration new world from a new Italian follower✨💚🖼️...

Thanks for sharing your amazing World with us Brother! Peace and God bless!
I’ve been missing your videos! The short ones are such a tease lol. I know life gets busy and work like this takes forever. Your art videos are some of the best!
I could and do sometimes watch this all day and neglect to get any painting of my own done. 😆 It's SOOOOO beautiful bro. You're in my opinion the best out there. Just wow
Hi, i love art so much but i had 0 knowledge of art. Your artwork masterpiece is beyond imagination - Transcendence!! A fish combined with lemon.. eagle rhino whale.. i can't describe it. Watching your artwork likes bringing the dream to reality world. Thank you so much for bringing me to the GOTHIC freaky exotic world.
Thank you for posting another long-form painting! It's so mesmerizing to watch you work, and I always get so inspired to continue with my own projects afterward. Cheers!
Watching you paint is like watching magic happen in slow motion. It is truly amazing and incredible. Thank you so much much for sharing all that you do with us.
One day I would really love one of your pieces. All of them are amazing. I really dig your rabbit eared characters. Especially the star faced ones, for obvious reasons.(last name just in case it wasn't so obvious lol)
It's always a pleasure watching this man paint. I may not be able to afford a print but his work is amazing to watch his creativity come to life on canvas. We thank you 😊
Your imagination and ability to bring it to canvas is absolutely amazing! I could watch you paint forever. By far my favorite artist. Thank you so much for sharing your ability with the world. I will forever be in awe of you...
" Yesterday is a History " " Tomorrow is a Mystery " today is a Gift that's why it is called Present Greg Simkins Forever Your painting is a master piece
Don't have any tattoos but I would totally get one of these guys, Your talent combined with your imagination really is out of this world. The work you do is very surreal I enjoy it very much.
Simply mesmerizing. As a painter myself, you are the yardstick I gauge my process by - and you just set that bar even higher, Greg. Hot damn. Gonna be watching and rewatching this one for a long time to come.
My God, man!! I just watched this on the big screen. I say to you, man to man, there were tears in my eyes. I could not turn my eyes away. That is quite possibly the BEST work of art I’ve EVER seen anyone render! I’ve seen a lot. And I’ve watched every one of your videos on RUclips. You’ve truly just put my feet back on solid ground. For, watching you paint this, I can see again! I can feel, down deep in my soul, the joy of letting the imagination fly! Oh, thank you, Sir, for the honor of watching you work! Fantastic! Beautiful! I could go on all day… Thank You!
Epic,your art is Sureal yet its like I've dreamt or when I was a child envision a world of wonders like this, your imagination has no limits an in a horrible world we live in a few Wonderous visuals is nothing short of Greatness ,Cheers my Man...
Amazing!! I would love to see your characters and creations as a carousel. Different collectible carousels. A lot of your characters are riding another creations, so an ornate The Outside carousel collection I think would be awesome. Now a life size rideable one would be insane. That would be a nice centerpiece to a Crayola exhibit, or museum, or freekin theme park!
The only thing I hate is that your videos have to end, i could sit around all day and watch your videos this video was an hour and it didn't seem that long . I'm an artist and You , Justin Bua and David Carson are by far my 3 go to artist when I need some inspiration or i need to be pushed creatively and this has made me better artist. your imagination and artistic mastery leaves me in awe every time I watch one of your videos. This painting is a true masterpiece and I cant wait to see what you put down on canvas next. one last thing how long did this painting take I would say 6-7 months but knowing you it probably took 1 month at the most.
this is an amazing piece of work. it was so fun to watch this piece come to life. each character you paint and have developed is unique and has such a personality

I couldn't have said it better.... you took the words right out of my mind!
I love the Cheshire Cat standing guard at an entrance to Wonderland.
Yo - this guy spends a ton of time on details of an octopus arm then pants over it with another character. That is what makes these paintings so amazing - high quality through and through.

Just as I think he's done with a section and I'm sitting there admiring it - he adds additional layers of detail and it blows my mind.
Those purple eyes around 17:30 are just gorgeous.
That gold-leafed porcelain plate looking triceratops-dolphin is amazing.
One of the greatest paintings I ever seen, been a huge fan for a long time, always so technically beautiful, I was in amazement watching the part with the fabric on the windmill, it could of been a video 5 hours long I would of still watched the whole thing without skipping it was that enjoyable to watch.
