00:00:16,710 --> 00:00:17,820

Hello, I'm Bob Ross.

00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:21,620

And I'd like to welcome you to the

18th, the joy of painting series.

00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:24,290

First of all, let me thank

you for inviting me back for

00:00:24,290 --> 00:00:25,820

another series of painting shows.

00:00:26,270 --> 00:00:29,210

And if this is your first time with

us, allow me to extend a personal

00:00:29,210 --> 00:00:33,050

invitation for you to drag at your big

brushes and few colors and paint along

00:00:33,050 --> 00:00:37,100

with this to each week, as we put some

of nature's masterpieces on canvas.

00:00:37,894 --> 00:00:39,904

Tell you what I'm going to start

out today and have him run all

00:00:39,904 --> 00:00:42,964

the colors across the screen that

you need to paint along with me.

00:00:43,055 --> 00:00:46,625

And while they're doing that, let me tell

you what I've already done up here today.

00:00:46,625 --> 00:00:49,114

I have my standard old 18 by 24 inch.

00:00:49,470 --> 00:00:52,230

Double primed, canvas and own to that.

00:00:52,410 --> 00:00:56,520

I've taken a piece of contact paper

and sort of cut like a half an

00:00:56,550 --> 00:00:58,770

oval shape and I just stuck it on.

00:00:59,250 --> 00:01:03,000

Then we've covered the entire canvas

with a thin even coat of liquid white.

00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,400

This is a wet on wet painting technique.

00:01:05,460 --> 00:01:09,300

So normally the first thing that

we'll do is we cover the canvas with

00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:11,070

something to make it wet and slick.

00:01:11,414 --> 00:01:14,774

Today we've used liquid white and all

that does is allow us to actually blend

00:01:14,774 --> 00:01:18,045

color right on the canvas, rather than

working ourselves to death on the pallet.

00:01:18,554 --> 00:01:21,335

Tell you what let's go

ahead and get started today.

00:01:21,345 --> 00:01:24,405

Let's start off with the old two inch

brush and let's go right up here and get

00:01:24,405 --> 00:01:27,345

this least little amount of fallow blue.

00:01:27,524 --> 00:01:28,634

It's a very strong color.

00:01:28,664 --> 00:01:29,535

You'd need very little.

00:01:30,315 --> 00:01:34,545

Just pull it out and then tap the

bristles into the color that assures

00:01:34,545 --> 00:01:38,025

that we get a nice even distribution of

color all the way through the bristles.

00:01:38,595 --> 00:01:40,215

And that's exactly what we're looking for.

00:01:40,664 --> 00:01:41,625

Kate us go right up here.

00:01:42,885 --> 00:01:45,005

I thought today we'd do a,

just a happy little scene.

00:01:45,055 --> 00:01:47,955

I want to show you a very simple

little scene that you can do.

00:01:48,220 --> 00:01:53,050

Even if you've never painted before, this

is a very easy, very nice little scene.

00:01:53,770 --> 00:01:57,280

And I think you'll find it

very enjoyable and rewarding.

00:01:58,270 --> 00:01:58,839

There we go.

00:01:59,199 --> 00:02:02,500

How are we doing here is just using

little crisscross strokes, little exes.

00:02:03,105 --> 00:02:08,115

That's really all that amounts

to little tiny Xs and the color.

00:02:08,384 --> 00:02:12,825

The blue color is always blending with

the liquid white this on the canvas, and

00:02:12,825 --> 00:02:18,195

automatically, automatically the sky gets

lighter and lighter toward the horizon.

00:02:18,945 --> 00:02:20,865

And that's what we're

looking for in the landscape.

00:02:21,835 --> 00:02:23,045

We just blended together here.

00:02:26,945 --> 00:02:29,615

and very lightly we can just

go across all this does is just

00:02:30,155 --> 00:02:33,545

removes all the brush strokes and

sort of pulls everything together.

00:02:34,305 --> 00:02:41,285

Just like, so there maybe we'll have a

little bit of water in this painting.

00:02:41,315 --> 00:02:44,945

If you've painted with me before, you

know, I'm an absolute nut for water.

00:02:45,035 --> 00:02:46,445

I think it's so beautiful.

00:02:46,475 --> 00:02:50,345

And in this technique, it's one of

the nicest, easiest things to paint.

00:02:50,745 --> 00:02:53,924

So you'll find water very

enjoyable to do so we'll just

00:02:53,924 --> 00:02:55,635

take a, a small amount of that.

00:02:55,635 --> 00:02:59,325

They love blue again, back on the

same old brush, let's go right up here

00:02:59,655 --> 00:03:01,454

and you have to make a decision here.

00:03:01,454 --> 00:03:02,325

Where does your water live?

00:03:02,355 --> 00:03:05,174

Maybe, maybe it's right in here.

00:03:05,204 --> 00:03:07,484

Just taking, pull from the outside in.

00:03:08,834 --> 00:03:09,704

So all there is to it.

00:03:12,045 --> 00:03:18,755

Very lightly now then we'll

take it up to, Oh, about there.

00:03:18,905 --> 00:03:19,445

Doesn't matter.

00:03:20,525 --> 00:03:21,995

Doesn't matter wherever you want it.

00:03:23,075 --> 00:03:27,305

On this piece of canvas, you

have absolute and total power.

00:03:27,984 --> 00:03:30,234

You can do anything that

you want to do here.

00:03:31,315 --> 00:03:33,804

You have unbelievable power.

00:03:33,894 --> 00:03:39,325

You can move mighty rivers, push

trees around in the mountains.

00:03:39,415 --> 00:03:43,495

Anything it's just want to do

on this piece of canvas there.

00:03:43,734 --> 00:03:44,274

Okay.

00:03:45,565 --> 00:03:46,845

And that'll end up being water.

00:03:47,265 --> 00:03:48,405

Let's wash your old brush.

00:03:49,424 --> 00:03:51,464

We wash our brush with odorless thinner.

00:03:51,825 --> 00:03:52,665

Let me say that again.

00:03:52,845 --> 00:03:53,745

Odor this thinner.

00:03:54,495 --> 00:03:56,355

If you don't use elder's

thinner, you're gonna.

00:03:57,335 --> 00:03:58,235

You're going to find yourself.

00:04:00,845 --> 00:04:03,575

You kind of find yourself

working alone very, very quickly.

00:04:04,445 --> 00:04:06,245

Really recommend you use odorless theater.

00:04:06,485 --> 00:04:09,875

I'll tell you what, let's take

a fan brush today and let's

00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:11,285

build us a happy little cloud.

00:04:11,675 --> 00:04:16,445

And for that, we'll go right into

titanium white, be right back and get

00:04:16,445 --> 00:04:21,845

the least little touch of the bright,

red, least, least little touch though.

00:04:21,965 --> 00:04:22,895

It goes a long way.

00:04:23,555 --> 00:04:25,355

Load, a lot of color into the bristles.

00:04:25,950 --> 00:04:27,900

So both sides are full of color.

00:04:28,530 --> 00:04:29,099

Very good.

00:04:30,030 --> 00:04:31,679

Now then we have to

make some big decision.

00:04:32,130 --> 00:04:34,560

Maybe there's some happy little

clouds that live in our world.

00:04:34,619 --> 00:04:39,119

So to take the corner of the brush

and very gently begin making all

00:04:39,119 --> 00:04:43,679

these tiny little circles, tiny little

circles, had a little more paint.

00:04:45,030 --> 00:04:45,690

There we go.

00:04:47,460 --> 00:04:49,979

And just begin forming

your basic cloud shapes.

00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,669

That's all we're looking for at this

point are very basic little shapes.

00:04:54,495 --> 00:04:55,755

That's all we're looking for.

00:04:58,845 --> 00:05:01,785

Just apply a little color and

then I'm going to take a two inch

00:05:01,785 --> 00:05:04,005

brush this nice and clean and dry.

00:05:04,875 --> 00:05:06,645

And I have several of each

brush should go in here.

00:05:07,455 --> 00:05:12,315

Very gently, very gently just blend

the base of the smell, her cloud.

00:05:13,425 --> 00:05:16,335

So I don't get, I wouldn't call

this a mountain anyway, right

00:05:16,935 --> 00:05:19,425

now, very lightly lift upward.

00:05:20,550 --> 00:05:24,180

Let's see, I just sorta fluffs it

then gently, gently to hairs and

00:05:24,180 --> 00:05:25,800

some air just blend it a little bit.

00:05:26,910 --> 00:05:27,900

And we have a cloud.

00:05:28,380 --> 00:05:32,130

And when you're painting clouds, work

in layers doing the cloud that you

00:05:32,130 --> 00:05:33,600

think's the father's to way first.

100

00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,700

And then we'll come back

and reload the brush.

101

00:05:35,790 --> 00:05:38,340

And we can go back in

here and make another one.

102

00:05:39,450 --> 00:05:41,250

Now, sometimes we use a very firm paint.

103

00:05:41,250 --> 00:05:42,540

Sometimes you'll find a paint.

104

00:05:42,570 --> 00:05:43,890

Maybe it's a little too thick.

105

00:05:44,430 --> 00:05:47,700

If that ever happens at the least

little touch of liquid white.

106

00:05:48,300 --> 00:05:51,840

Along with the titanium white

lease level amount, because when

107

00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:57,060

you add liquid white here, your

blending ability drops drastically.

108

00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:00,300

So don't add any more than you

have to, to get the paint, to come

109

00:06:00,300 --> 00:06:01,740

off your brush onto the canvas.

110

00:06:03,390 --> 00:06:07,410

And we can put another happy little

cloud that lives right here and in your

111

00:06:07,410 --> 00:06:09,510

world, you have to make these decisions.

112

00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,860

You have to decide how many

clouds live in your painting.

113

00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:14,580

There.

114

00:06:15,690 --> 00:06:17,070

I think there's one lives right there.

115

00:06:18,825 --> 00:06:19,215

Right.

116

00:06:19,215 --> 00:06:20,265

There may be up in here.

117

00:06:20,265 --> 00:06:22,755

There's a little stringy when

it just sort of floats along.

118

00:06:22,845 --> 00:06:25,635

He just lays up here and

has a good time watches.

119

00:06:25,635 --> 00:06:26,445

Everything happened.

120

00:06:27,215 --> 00:06:27,305

Okay.

121

00:06:30,395 --> 00:06:35,975

Dry, clean, dry two inch brush,

and be sure it's dry really needs

122

00:06:35,975 --> 00:06:37,805

to be dry blend the base of it.

123

00:06:38,175 --> 00:06:38,565

Fluff.

124

00:06:38,565 --> 00:06:42,165

It just like we did before and that easy.

125

00:06:42,795 --> 00:06:46,205

You have another happy little

cloud and you can put as many or

126

00:06:46,205 --> 00:06:47,555

as few as you want in your world.

127

00:06:48,155 --> 00:06:49,925

Maybe, maybe we'll do one more.

128

00:06:49,925 --> 00:06:53,015

It's good practice, good practice.

129

00:06:53,165 --> 00:06:58,235

And the more you practice, the better

you get, no matter what you're doing,

130

00:06:58,235 --> 00:07:00,035

whether it's painting or anything else.

131

00:07:01,055 --> 00:07:03,935

But if there's a secret to

this or any other style of

132

00:07:03,935 --> 00:07:05,945

painting, it's simply practice.

133

00:07:07,724 --> 00:07:09,435

There we go now very gently.

134

00:07:09,555 --> 00:07:15,344

Once again, we just want to blend

the base of this, just the base,

135

00:07:16,275 --> 00:07:22,005

lift it, fluff it there very lightly,

very lightly, just go across.

136

00:07:22,485 --> 00:07:26,865

And so I see we have all these layers

of clouds now, and you can come along

137

00:07:26,865 --> 00:07:29,354

in here, you know, maybe once again,

maybe you want to put some little

138

00:07:29,354 --> 00:07:32,925

stringy clouds in here, little floaters.

139

00:07:33,780 --> 00:07:34,770

And those are very easy.

140

00:07:34,770 --> 00:07:39,090

I have to just sort of lay a man,

blend them the least little amount,

141

00:07:39,630 --> 00:07:41,370

and then very lightly just go over.

142

00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:44,640

Isn't that something.

143

00:07:46,020 --> 00:07:46,320

Okay.

144

00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,040

Maybe people will have a little,

little mountain that lives weed,

145

00:07:50,050 --> 00:07:51,420

weed back in the distance here.

146

00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:53,850

Very simple little mountain, one.

147

00:07:53,850 --> 00:07:55,560

That's very quiet.

148

00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:56,640

Very subdued.

149

00:07:56,850 --> 00:08:00,240

We'll take some black little Bandag Brown.

150

00:08:01,665 --> 00:08:03,435

A little touch of a

lizard Crimson in there.

151

00:08:05,715 --> 00:08:10,905

Like, so maybe at least a little

touch of pressure and blue there.

152

00:08:13,005 --> 00:08:13,455

Okay.

153

00:08:13,485 --> 00:08:16,845

Now then pull the pin out as flat as you

can get it, really get tough with it.

154

00:08:17,535 --> 00:08:18,525

Go down by the knife.

155

00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,210

Touch and just cut across that way.

156

00:08:21,210 --> 00:08:24,030

You get a small rule of paint lives

right on the edge of the knife.

157

00:08:24,210 --> 00:08:25,830

Okay, let's go up here now.

158

00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:27,330

Then we have to make a big decision.

159

00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,370

Where does our little mountain live?

160

00:08:29,370 --> 00:08:32,700

And we want this to be a far away,

very distant little mountain.

161

00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,640

So we don't want it to get too big on us.

162

00:08:36,180 --> 00:08:38,670

These Rascals will grow very quickly.

163

00:08:38,670 --> 00:08:44,220

They'll take over your whole world and

you have to make some decision or do

164

00:08:44,220 --> 00:08:46,500

you want little bumps, little tops.

165

00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:54,480

All you have to do is just put them

on it, just like, so the only thing

166

00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,750

that we're worried about to this

point is a nice top edge up here.

167

00:08:58,170 --> 00:08:59,040

We could care less.

168

00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,030

What's happening in here.

169

00:09:01,420 --> 00:09:05,340

Doesn't make any difference

to us at this point now.

170

00:09:06,645 --> 00:09:12,194

Once again, take a two inch brush, grab

this and pull it because the liquid whites

171

00:09:12,194 --> 00:09:14,415

on the canvas, you can move this color.

172

00:09:15,675 --> 00:09:17,805

It's wet and it'll slip and slide.

173

00:09:19,064 --> 00:09:19,665

There we go.

174

00:09:20,475 --> 00:09:24,195

Grab it and pull, maybe we'll just let

this blend right on out to nothing.

175

00:09:24,315 --> 00:09:25,245

Just sort of float away.

176

00:09:27,315 --> 00:09:27,645

Yes.

177

00:09:30,645 --> 00:09:33,575

Then just by using brush strokes, if

you want to make a little mountain

178

00:09:33,575 --> 00:09:37,235

as far away, just by using the little

brushstrokes here, you can make

179

00:09:37,235 --> 00:09:41,855

the indication of highlights and

shadows, all kinds of little things.

180

00:09:42,485 --> 00:09:43,565

I hope you can see those.

181

00:09:44,075 --> 00:09:46,565

If you can't, when you're

painting, I guarantee you'll

182

00:09:46,565 --> 00:09:47,585

understand what I'm saying.

183

00:09:47,585 --> 00:09:47,795

There.

184

00:09:48,330 --> 00:09:49,290

Because they will show up.

185

00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,720

It'll look like all kinds of

beautiful little things that are just

186

00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,780

happening out there automatically,

and you don't have to work at all.

187

00:09:55,470 --> 00:09:57,270

And this is a lazy man's way of painting.

188

00:09:58,680 --> 00:09:59,700

Shoot paper.

189

00:09:59,730 --> 00:10:04,260

Let's take some quite a little

bit of the little blue little

190

00:10:04,260 --> 00:10:07,700

led mountain color, just there.

191

00:10:08,390 --> 00:10:08,480

Okay.

192

00:10:08,810 --> 00:10:11,330

Maybe in our world, we

eat back in the distance.

193

00:10:11,330 --> 00:10:13,400

There there lives a little Foothill.

194

00:10:13,970 --> 00:10:14,180

Yeah.

195

00:10:14,660 --> 00:10:15,020

Push.

196

00:10:15,260 --> 00:10:15,590

See.

197

00:10:16,260 --> 00:10:17,820

Hit it and give it a little push.

198

00:10:18,060 --> 00:10:21,090

I can slide a little, let loads paint

right out of the end of the bristles.

199

00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:22,500

Let's go ahead.

200

00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:22,830

Up here.

201

00:10:23,954 --> 00:10:24,165

Okay.

202

00:10:24,165 --> 00:10:25,995

Now we have a little Foothill.

203

00:10:26,084 --> 00:10:26,895

Maybe it lives.

204

00:10:27,795 --> 00:10:28,155

Yep.

205

00:10:28,545 --> 00:10:29,055

You're right.

206

00:10:29,324 --> 00:10:30,225

You're right there.

207

00:10:30,225 --> 00:10:32,834

It is little Foothill

lives right out there.

208

00:10:32,865 --> 00:10:35,355

Say we just let it disappear into nothing.

209

00:10:35,925 --> 00:10:40,665

It's very soft, quiet,

gentle little thing.

210

00:10:41,775 --> 00:10:45,255

It lives down here at the base of this big

mountain and he just watches everything.

211

00:10:45,255 --> 00:10:45,944

It goes on.

212

00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:48,450

There we are.

213

00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:51,840

Okay.

214

00:10:52,350 --> 00:10:54,540

Now then, while we have that color

on the brush, maybe we want to

215

00:10:54,540 --> 00:10:57,840

make the indication of a little

reflection down here to do that.

216

00:10:58,020 --> 00:11:01,740

Just pull straight down for the little

bit of the color, but straight down,

217

00:11:01,770 --> 00:11:06,780

that's important and gently across that.

218

00:11:06,780 --> 00:11:11,400

That'll give us an indication of a

little reflection, everything we can do.

219

00:11:11,490 --> 00:11:12,180

Lift upward.

220

00:11:13,275 --> 00:11:14,505

Very short little strokes.

221

00:11:15,305 --> 00:11:17,475

It'll make it look like a little

distant trees that are live.

222

00:11:17,805 --> 00:11:19,905

We back here far, far away.

223

00:11:20,895 --> 00:11:21,885

Very subdued though.

224

00:11:23,955 --> 00:11:24,435

All right.

225

00:11:25,425 --> 00:11:29,325

Now, one thing that gives a painting,

a lot of depth and distance is

226

00:11:29,325 --> 00:11:30,915

different planes or layers in it.

227

00:11:31,425 --> 00:11:33,285

So let's make several

different layers in here.

228

00:11:33,315 --> 00:11:35,595

We'll just use, we'll just use that.

229

00:11:35,595 --> 00:11:35,805

Oh.

230

00:11:36,765 --> 00:11:37,935

Mountain color here.

231

00:11:38,415 --> 00:11:41,055

I think that was just black

little Prussian, blue, little

232

00:11:41,055 --> 00:11:44,085

Bandag Brown lizard and Crimson.

233

00:11:44,085 --> 00:11:46,905

And to that, I'm going to add the

least little touch of SAP green.

234

00:11:47,085 --> 00:11:52,125

Not much just a little once again,

tap the brush just to load it.

235

00:11:52,875 --> 00:11:57,675

How then let's begin putting in

all different layers or planes.

236

00:11:58,635 --> 00:12:00,705

Maybe there's one that lives right here.

237

00:12:01,530 --> 00:12:03,420

And it comes right down like that.

238

00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,310

Let your imagination go

and decide who you want.

239

00:12:07,310 --> 00:12:11,469

All these little things

to live there came out.

240

00:12:11,469 --> 00:12:14,810

Then each time you put one of these

little peninsulas out here, though,

241

00:12:14,839 --> 00:12:16,699

we need a reflection under it.

242

00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:23,569

So very important pull straight down,

good, gently across, and you can make

243

00:12:24,050 --> 00:12:25,640

a decision where the next one lives.

244

00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:26,449

Maybe the next one.

245

00:12:27,060 --> 00:12:27,840

Is right here.

246

00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,540

I see you may, it's almost a natural

tendency to want to put all of

247

00:12:33,540 --> 00:12:35,160

these and then put the reflections.

248

00:12:35,699 --> 00:12:38,610

But when you pull these down, it

would destroy the top of that one.

249

00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:40,170

Hope, all that makes sense.

250

00:12:40,170 --> 00:12:41,220

So do them one at a time.

251

00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,230

Don't be in too big.

252

00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:43,560

A hurry.

253

00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:51,740

Speed will come automatically

with they're great.

254

00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,199

Yeah, we're just trying to

learn the basic technique.

255

00:12:55,710 --> 00:12:58,470

Maybe she was maybe kind of, Hey,

there's another one right here.

256

00:12:58,500 --> 00:12:59,010

I don't know.

257

00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:01,980

Just, just let it go.

258

00:13:01,980 --> 00:13:03,090

This is the beauty of this.

259

00:13:03,090 --> 00:13:06,990

You really don't have to sit and

plan every little detail out, have

260

00:13:06,990 --> 00:13:09,720

a general idea in your mind of where

you want to go with this painting

261

00:13:10,290 --> 00:13:11,640

and what you want it to look like.

262

00:13:12,810 --> 00:13:17,880

So basically all you have to do is figure

out the time of year and the time of day.

263

00:13:18,690 --> 00:13:20,490

And other than that, you're free.

264

00:13:20,790 --> 00:13:22,230

You can do anything here that you want.

265

00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:28,290

Let's take with a CAD yellow, be right

back, grab a little mishap green.

266

00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:30,660

We just use a fan brush today.

267

00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:31,410

It doesn't matter.

268

00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:38,400

A little touchy yellow ochre there,

maybe a little more of that green

269

00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,560

here, there that's beautiful green.

270

00:13:41,340 --> 00:13:44,550

But by mixing color on the fan brush

like this, you have a multitude of

271

00:13:44,550 --> 00:13:46,140

color happening in the bristles.

272

00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:48,180

Look at all the different

values and colors.

273

00:13:49,199 --> 00:13:51,030

My gosh, you'd work for ever to do that.

274

00:13:51,180 --> 00:13:54,599

If you were trying to mix each

one of those separate colors, this

275

00:13:54,599 --> 00:13:55,920

way, it happens automatically.

276

00:13:56,459 --> 00:14:02,040

And we can go back up in here and we can

just begin pushing in some highlights.

277

00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,750

We need that dark underneath though.

278

00:14:04,079 --> 00:14:07,949

So this nice green color will show there.

279

00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:09,719

You know what?

280

00:14:10,890 --> 00:14:11,939

I'll grab another fan brush.

281

00:14:11,949 --> 00:14:13,410

I see something here I'd like to do.

282

00:14:14,505 --> 00:14:15,824

Let's take another fan brush.

283

00:14:16,125 --> 00:14:20,235

We'll go right into some

black Brown, same old colors.

284

00:14:20,265 --> 00:14:26,925

Again, Crimson SAP green, a little bit of

the pressure and blue, very dark color.

285

00:14:28,290 --> 00:14:29,100

In my mind.

286

00:14:29,850 --> 00:14:31,170

See how you can change your mind.

287

00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:34,530

I see little trees, maybe there's little

evergreens that live way back here.

288

00:14:35,970 --> 00:14:41,220

Just take the top corner of this fan brush

and we'll put it in the end indication

289

00:14:41,220 --> 00:14:42,630

of little trees that are far away.

290

00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,220

We don't want too much detail.

291

00:14:44,250 --> 00:14:48,959

Now, if you put too much detail

on trees, as far away, you'll

292

00:14:48,959 --> 00:14:51,540

lose that illusion of distance.

293

00:14:52,650 --> 00:14:52,920

So.

294

00:14:53,714 --> 00:14:59,864

Just a little there, there we go.

295

00:15:00,885 --> 00:15:04,755

Let them just come right on

down and disappear into nothing.

296

00:15:07,155 --> 00:15:07,875

There we are.

297

00:15:09,135 --> 00:15:15,255

Now then back to our fan brush,

we can put in all of those

298

00:15:15,255 --> 00:15:16,574

beautiful little green areas.

299

00:15:18,135 --> 00:15:18,675

There we are.

300

00:15:19,740 --> 00:15:20,699

That's fantastic.

301

00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,560

Now work in layers though.

302

00:15:22,589 --> 00:15:23,040

Watch here.

303

00:15:23,069 --> 00:15:23,400

Watch here.

304

00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:28,410

See, here comes another one out here on

this little peninsula that sticks out into

305

00:15:28,410 --> 00:15:36,510

the water that easy and easy, and you can

just put layer after layer after layer.

306

00:15:37,319 --> 00:15:40,860

And then let's take a little touch of

the liquid point little liquid wine.

307

00:15:42,630 --> 00:15:45,900

I'll put the least little touch

of the bright red into the color.

308

00:15:48,270 --> 00:15:51,690

Pull it out as flat as you can get

it and then cut across like, yeah.

309

00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,080

Okay.

310

00:15:53,220 --> 00:15:57,380

Let's go up here and let's just

cut in a little water line.

311

00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,570

Now, even though this water line is

dropping down, down down, you want to

312

00:16:02,570 --> 00:16:04,430

keep these lines basically straight.

313

00:16:05,300 --> 00:16:08,690

Otherwise it looked like it looked

like a water's go run right out of your

314

00:16:08,690 --> 00:16:10,460

painting and get your floor all wet.

315

00:16:11,180 --> 00:16:11,960

So you can go anywhere.

316

00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:12,980

You want to go with these.

317

00:16:13,859 --> 00:16:22,459

But try to keep them as straight as

possible there, and maybe here and there.

318

00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,510

Maybe you won't put the indication of a

little of a little ripple here and there.

319

00:16:27,170 --> 00:16:29,510

Those two need to be as

straight as possible.

320

00:16:30,079 --> 00:16:34,339

Try to keep those straight,

then let's get crazy.

321

00:16:35,415 --> 00:16:39,435

I'm gonna go right back to the old fan

brush that I had that had the black and

322

00:16:39,435 --> 00:16:46,125

the Prussian blue and the Brown and green

Crimson, a lot of color into the bristles

323

00:16:46,545 --> 00:16:48,705

and maybe in our world their lives.

324

00:16:50,055 --> 00:16:52,965

Maybe there's a nice evergreen

tree that lives right here.

325

00:16:53,385 --> 00:16:54,075

Just touch.

326

00:16:56,085 --> 00:16:57,255

Give yourself sort of a little center.

327

00:16:57,255 --> 00:17:00,975

And I never got to use just the

corner of the brush, just the corner.

328

00:17:02,584 --> 00:17:07,185

Say there, and these little evergreens

live right here in these fan brushes, all

329

00:17:07,185 --> 00:17:08,744

you have to do is sort of scare them out.

330

00:17:09,014 --> 00:17:12,194

And as you work down the tree,

add more and more pressure.

331

00:17:12,194 --> 00:17:15,194

We're still using the corner of the

brush, but we're just pushing harder

332

00:17:15,585 --> 00:17:21,045

and harder and automatically your

tree will get larger and larger.

333

00:17:21,780 --> 00:17:26,760

As it works downward and normally

trees look better if that's the case.

334

00:17:28,169 --> 00:17:28,800

There we go.

335

00:17:29,490 --> 00:17:33,870

Now that you know me, I think

everybody should have a friend, so

336

00:17:33,870 --> 00:17:39,300

let's go right here and get this

little tree, a friend, same thing.

337

00:17:40,690 --> 00:17:44,460

See, just use a corner of the

brush and work back and forth

338

00:17:46,020 --> 00:17:53,100

like so there and that easy.

339

00:17:53,850 --> 00:17:56,430

We've got a couple of beautiful

little evergreen trees.

340

00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,100

Now, then we can take the knife,

take a little titanium, white

341

00:18:02,100 --> 00:18:03,990

little dark Sienna, mix it together.

342

00:18:04,980 --> 00:18:07,320

Pull it out very flat and we cut across.

343

00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,030

Once again, we get our

little roll of paint.

344

00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:15,600

Normally, normally we always load the

knife with that little roll of paint.

345

00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,899

So spend a little time

practicing so you can do that

346

00:18:18,899 --> 00:18:20,220

without even thinking about it.

347

00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:25,670

Don't pet her right there.

348

00:18:27,530 --> 00:18:28,070

There we go.

349

00:18:29,149 --> 00:18:32,270

And that just give the indication of

some little tree trunks in our trees.

350

00:18:32,699 --> 00:18:32,909

Hmm.

351

00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,540

Well, you don't want it to be weak

and fall over and drop into the water.

352

00:18:37,470 --> 00:18:42,090

We'll take a little bit of black, little

yellow and make a very dark green.

353

00:18:42,659 --> 00:18:44,090

And we put that on the fan brush.

354

00:18:45,389 --> 00:18:48,570

Lot of color, just load

both sides full of color.

355

00:18:50,220 --> 00:18:51,030

Let's go right up here.

356

00:18:51,990 --> 00:18:55,850

And then my world, maybe the

lights coming from the right.

357

00:18:55,909 --> 00:18:58,159

So we want to put more emphasis

on the right side of the

358

00:18:58,159 --> 00:18:59,689

tree than we do on the left.

359

00:19:01,365 --> 00:19:05,715

There we go and we'll put some

highlights on this tree, but evergreen

360

00:19:05,715 --> 00:19:10,304

trees are normally quite dark, so

don't let them get too bright on you.

361

00:19:10,304 --> 00:19:13,034

It cause them Rascals

wheel, it gets to be fun.

362

00:19:13,034 --> 00:19:17,264

And next thing you know, you've covered

up all your dark areas and you'd need

363

00:19:17,264 --> 00:19:19,334

that contrast to make you treat beautiful.

364

00:19:19,544 --> 00:19:24,495

I make it stand out there, darker,

darker, darker down here toward

365

00:19:24,495 --> 00:19:26,415

the base because trees are darker.

366

00:19:26,415 --> 00:19:27,675

There's more shadows down here.

367

00:19:29,145 --> 00:19:30,625

All right, shoot.

368

00:19:30,675 --> 00:19:31,395

Let's get crazy.

369

00:19:31,905 --> 00:19:32,745

Get the big brush.

370

00:19:33,435 --> 00:19:36,014

Let's go right into that

dark color, same old thing.

371

00:19:36,044 --> 00:19:41,014

Black, blue vendetta, little

Crimson, little SAP green.

372

00:19:42,245 --> 00:19:43,355

We use the old two inch brush.

373

00:19:43,375 --> 00:19:44,554

Pull it in one direction here.

374

00:19:44,915 --> 00:19:46,294

Load a lot of color into it.

375

00:19:47,014 --> 00:19:47,585

There we go.

376

00:19:48,034 --> 00:19:49,835

Let's go right up here now then.

377

00:19:50,475 --> 00:19:52,665

Let's just, let's just

put something right here.

378

00:19:52,665 --> 00:19:53,055

Watch here.

379

00:19:53,985 --> 00:19:56,985

Let's just begin and have

to make some decisions here.

380

00:19:56,985 --> 00:20:00,435

Where do you want all these little

bushes and stuff to live here?

381

00:20:00,435 --> 00:20:02,595

They are wherever you want.

382

00:20:03,825 --> 00:20:05,535

That's exactly where they are to be.

383

00:20:05,595 --> 00:20:10,515

And we just let them sort of fade

out down here, but that easy.

384

00:20:11,580 --> 00:20:12,090

Add easy.

385

00:20:12,090 --> 00:20:16,530

When you use this big old brush, you

can cover a lot of space quickly there.

386

00:20:16,950 --> 00:20:18,510

And this is a two inch brush

387

00:20:22,140 --> 00:20:26,250

and all we're doing once again,

it's just laying in some dark color.

388

00:20:26,850 --> 00:20:30,750

So when we apply our highlights

or light colors that they'll stand

389

00:20:30,750 --> 00:20:33,930

out and show that's really the

only reason we put this in here.

390

00:20:35,175 --> 00:20:38,564

Now then another thing you can do,

you can take just a clean knife and

391

00:20:38,564 --> 00:20:42,735

sneak up in here and just creep in all

kinds of little sticks and twigs areas.

392

00:20:43,844 --> 00:20:46,995

Now, when this is done, it looked

like you spent days and days with

393

00:20:46,995 --> 00:20:50,254

your little one hair just going

in here and drawing all these.

394

00:20:50,975 --> 00:20:54,455

We're going to cover up a lot of them,

but some of them will show and people

395

00:20:54,465 --> 00:20:58,205

think you work for long periods of

time to create all these little things.

396

00:21:01,294 --> 00:21:02,074

That's our secret.

397

00:21:02,435 --> 00:21:03,064

Don't tell nobody.

398

00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:05,430

Okay.

399

00:21:06,060 --> 00:21:09,570

So I say most of those will disappear,

but some of them will still be there and

400

00:21:09,570 --> 00:21:11,280

they'll create some very nice effects.

401

00:21:12,090 --> 00:21:15,300

I'm going to dip the one inch brush

into a little bit of the liquid white.

402

00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,290

I do that only to thin the paint.

403

00:21:19,290 --> 00:21:23,430

One of our golden rules, a thin

paint will stick to a thick paint.

404

00:21:24,450 --> 00:21:25,770

Let me get a little black on your home.

405

00:21:25,770 --> 00:21:28,020

I got a nice green, black, and yellow.

406

00:21:28,020 --> 00:21:31,140

Make a beautiful gray, pull

this brush in one direction.

407

00:21:31,530 --> 00:21:32,520

One direction.

408

00:21:33,699 --> 00:21:34,169

See there.

409

00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,179

Now that loads a lot of

paint look right there.

410

00:21:38,179 --> 00:21:41,389

So you, when it starts making those little

things, Steve, my son who teaches this,

411

00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:45,050

he tells his students when little bushes

start appearing right here in this pile

412

00:21:45,050 --> 00:21:48,110

of paint, when you pull it, then the

brush is loaded correctly, and that's an

413

00:21:48,139 --> 00:21:52,699

excellent way of checking it, but you can

see how it begins appearing right there.

414

00:21:53,389 --> 00:21:56,449

When you brush begins doing

that, then let's go up here.

415

00:21:57,439 --> 00:21:59,330

Then make some big decisions in here.

416

00:21:59,750 --> 00:22:01,460

Maybe there's a happy Bush

that lives right here.

417

00:22:01,820 --> 00:22:02,210

Touch.

418

00:22:02,820 --> 00:22:03,870

Give a gentle push.

419

00:22:04,830 --> 00:22:09,210

You don't have to push hard if you

have a thinner paint than what's on

420

00:22:09,210 --> 00:22:14,100

the canvas and you've loaded a lot of

color and to the bristles say there

421

00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:16,500

and make one little Bush at a time.

422

00:22:17,310 --> 00:22:20,370

I know sometimes it gets feeling good

and you want to make a bunch at once.

423

00:22:21,660 --> 00:22:23,639

Try to make only one Bush at a time.

424

00:22:24,149 --> 00:22:27,420

Think about them as individuals,

give them names if necessary.

425

00:22:28,290 --> 00:22:28,379

Okay.

426

00:22:28,725 --> 00:22:30,405

And that's what makes them stand out.

427

00:22:31,395 --> 00:22:35,475

Do the Bush, that in your mind is

the father's to way first and then

428

00:22:35,475 --> 00:22:37,395

work forward, always working forward.

429

00:22:38,625 --> 00:22:40,905

And that way there'll be depth

and distance in your work.

430

00:22:41,475 --> 00:22:44,685

A little more color, and I'm going

through the Indian, yellow, the yellow

431

00:22:44,685 --> 00:22:51,165

ochre, CAD yellow here and there least

little touch of the bright red, not much.

432

00:22:51,284 --> 00:22:54,044

It's very strong, very strong.

433

00:22:54,044 --> 00:22:55,784

It'll take over your whole

world in a heartbeat.

434

00:22:57,945 --> 00:23:00,855

But it does make some nice little

color changes here and there.

435

00:23:06,425 --> 00:23:06,785

Okay.

436

00:23:06,845 --> 00:23:09,365

Maybe another little Bush right there.

437

00:23:09,515 --> 00:23:14,615

I tell you what, tell you what

this looks just like a natural

438

00:23:14,615 --> 00:23:15,965

place to have a little path.

439

00:23:16,085 --> 00:23:19,145

So let's take some, we'll take

some van Vandyke, Brown, little

440

00:23:19,145 --> 00:23:22,565

dark Sienna, pull it out very flat.

441

00:23:22,715 --> 00:23:24,725

Once again, we cut off

our little roll of paint.

442

00:23:25,695 --> 00:23:27,945

Now then where does her path go?

443

00:23:27,945 --> 00:23:29,955

Maybe it goes right up in here.

444

00:23:30,615 --> 00:23:34,275

And all we're doing for once again

is putting some dark color on.

445

00:23:34,275 --> 00:23:39,225

So our light color will show, this is

just our under color, our base color.

446

00:23:40,395 --> 00:23:44,205

And in just a few minutes, we'll

come back and we'll highlight that.

447

00:23:45,355 --> 00:23:48,345

We'll just sort of let that just

sort of dribble out here to nothing.

448

00:23:48,825 --> 00:23:49,784

Just totally let it go.

449

00:23:49,815 --> 00:23:50,294

We don't know.

450

00:23:51,315 --> 00:23:51,705

I can't.

451

00:23:52,635 --> 00:23:56,415

Now then we can take some white,

a little dark sea and I may be the

452

00:23:56,415 --> 00:23:58,065

least low touch, a bright red in it.

453

00:23:58,095 --> 00:23:58,754

Not much.

454

00:23:59,595 --> 00:24:00,315

Pull it out flat.

455

00:24:00,345 --> 00:24:01,635

Don't overmix your color?

456

00:24:02,264 --> 00:24:04,815

Get our little roll of paint now.

457

00:24:05,745 --> 00:24:07,905

Barely, barely grazing the canvas.

458

00:24:09,014 --> 00:24:09,495

Just let it.

459

00:24:09,495 --> 00:24:13,544

The knife just barely,

barely caress it just too.

460

00:24:13,544 --> 00:24:15,615

It hits the high points and

it'll make it look like all

461

00:24:15,615 --> 00:24:17,115

those little bumps and rocks and.

462

00:24:18,075 --> 00:24:23,385

Beautiful little things happening

automatically, automatically.

463

00:24:24,435 --> 00:24:25,004

There we go.

464

00:24:26,264 --> 00:24:31,335

Now then we can come back where

there are one inch brush would just

465

00:24:31,335 --> 00:24:34,635

pop in a little Bush haired and

they're bringing it all together.

466

00:24:36,045 --> 00:24:39,764

Can add a little paint thinner to your

breast sometimes within the paint.

467

00:24:40,575 --> 00:24:41,595

And let's go right over here.

468

00:24:42,795 --> 00:24:46,005

See, we'll have a little Bush that lives

right here and hangs over the path.

469

00:24:46,035 --> 00:24:47,655

That way we don't have

to decide where it goes.

470

00:24:47,885 --> 00:24:51,065

We just know it goes somewhere

back into the background.

471

00:24:52,625 --> 00:24:53,345

We don't know.

472

00:24:55,860 --> 00:24:57,150

Don't care at this point.

473

00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,800

Just sort of let that go now,

then tell you what I want to do.

474

00:25:02,460 --> 00:25:05,280

I want to take the little piece of

contact paper I have off, and let's

475

00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,590

see what we have here with this.

476

00:25:07,610 --> 00:25:11,820

Grab that, pull it off and there it goes.

477

00:25:12,900 --> 00:25:15,150

Now then say we need to

get rid of these edges.

478

00:25:15,660 --> 00:25:19,290

So, uh, we we'll do, let's

take a little of dark color.

479

00:25:21,045 --> 00:25:24,105

Tap a little that in, so it

just sort of flows with it.

480

00:25:25,965 --> 00:25:28,485

Just let it flow out like that.

481

00:25:29,715 --> 00:25:34,125

But I want to keep this contour to

roundish idea of going here sort of

482

00:25:34,125 --> 00:25:38,085

makes it look a little bit better, but

some dark and then we can come back.

483

00:25:38,605 --> 00:25:41,325

You put all kinds of just little

bushes and things in here.

484

00:25:42,465 --> 00:25:47,085

Let's see, use this side of

the brush pushup, but work in

485

00:25:47,085 --> 00:25:49,185

layers, always working in layers.

486

00:25:49,274 --> 00:25:52,745

Think about individuals there

487

00:25:57,754 --> 00:26:03,725

now back to our fan breast that has

the, the white on it for the clouds.

488

00:26:04,625 --> 00:26:05,555

And let's go up in here.

489

00:26:07,125 --> 00:26:08,655

I'm gonna find a clean two inch brush.

490

00:26:09,615 --> 00:26:14,055

I want to blend this blue here,

just to see this little line here.

491

00:26:14,085 --> 00:26:14,865

I want to kill that.

492

00:26:14,925 --> 00:26:21,465

So we just blend that out and just

sort of let it go backwards here now.

493

00:26:23,055 --> 00:26:28,065

So all you have to do is just blend

it back and we'll take our cloud and

494

00:26:28,065 --> 00:26:31,665

allow it to come right down there.

495

00:26:33,900 --> 00:26:36,690

There it goes and just let

it land right on backseat.

496

00:26:36,870 --> 00:26:37,890

It's right on into nothing.

497

00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,090

We don't know where it goes.

498

00:26:39,090 --> 00:26:39,690

We don't care.

499

00:26:41,090 --> 00:26:41,660

And this one,

500

00:26:46,940 --> 00:26:48,260

then a nice clean brush.

501

00:26:48,740 --> 00:26:49,700

Keep it a little blend.

502

00:26:50,660 --> 00:26:51,320

Like, so.

503

00:26:52,770 --> 00:26:53,940

Lift it fluff it.

504

00:26:55,610 --> 00:26:57,480

That brings that whole

top section together.

505

00:26:58,500 --> 00:26:59,100

I'll tell you what.

506

00:26:59,160 --> 00:26:59,610

Thank you.

507

00:26:59,610 --> 00:27:00,780

So painting's about done.

508

00:27:00,810 --> 00:27:03,960

Let's take a little, the

bright grid on the liner.

509

00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,070

Brush a little paint thinner.

510

00:27:06,210 --> 00:27:08,550

I will sign this one right about here.

511

00:27:10,020 --> 00:27:11,070

I hope you've enjoyed this.

512

00:27:11,070 --> 00:27:13,920

It'll certainly give
