00:00:16,815 --> 00:00:18,495

Hi, glad to see you today.

00:00:18,975 --> 00:00:20,595

I thought today we'd do a painting.

00:00:20,595 --> 00:00:22,035

It has some nice mountains in it.

00:00:22,335 --> 00:00:26,595

That's still the number one most requested

thing that I get letters about is people

00:00:26,595 --> 00:00:29,175

wanting to do mountains and the fact that

they're having some problems with them.

00:00:29,175 --> 00:00:30,375

So I thought we'd devote this show.

00:00:30,855 --> 00:00:32,955

To some beautiful mountains

and we'll work on those.

00:00:33,405 --> 00:00:36,225

So let's start out and hammer on all

the colors across the screen that

00:00:36,225 --> 00:00:39,705

you need to paint along with me as

they're doing that, let's go on up here

00:00:39,705 --> 00:00:40,665

and let me tell you what I've done.

00:00:41,205 --> 00:00:44,295

I have my standard old 18

by 24 inch canvas up here.

00:00:44,714 --> 00:00:48,254

It's been covered with a nice even coat

of liquid white, and it's all ready to go.

00:00:49,065 --> 00:00:51,825

So let's just do a quick

little happy sky here.

00:00:52,305 --> 00:00:55,214

And then we'll, we'll spend most of

our time working on mountains today.

00:00:55,665 --> 00:00:57,614

I'm start with a little

touch of the fellow blue.

00:00:58,515 --> 00:01:01,485

We use the old two inch brush,

just pull it through a little

00:01:01,545 --> 00:01:04,304

of color, like so, and tap.

00:01:05,265 --> 00:01:08,445

That gets a nice even distribution of

color all the way through the bristles.

00:01:09,225 --> 00:01:13,664

Now then let's go up here and we'll

start right at the top, making our little

00:01:14,265 --> 00:01:18,884

crisscross strokes a little excess, but

start at the top work all the way across.

00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,380

And then go downward then automatically,

automatically your color will get

00:01:25,380 --> 00:01:28,050

lighter and lighter toward the horizon.

00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:30,750

And that's exactly what we're

looking for in a landscape.

00:01:31,860 --> 00:01:32,190

Okay.

00:01:32,250 --> 00:01:35,009

And you can always make it a little darker

if you want it a little darker, you can

00:01:35,009 --> 00:01:39,119

add a little more blue, but I'd suggest

you start at the top and work downward.

00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:41,509

There we go.

00:01:44,509 --> 00:01:47,985

But by using these little crisscross

strokes, Your color will blend

00:01:47,985 --> 00:01:52,245

together much better than if you

just come across like that and you

00:01:52,245 --> 00:01:53,685

get little things happening up here.

00:01:53,685 --> 00:01:55,605

It's not just a flat old dead sky.

00:02:00,785 --> 00:02:01,085

okay.

00:02:01,385 --> 00:02:03,425

And maybe we'll have a little

water underneath her mountains.

00:02:03,425 --> 00:02:04,205

I love water.

00:02:05,675 --> 00:02:06,345

It's so pretty.

00:02:07,155 --> 00:02:12,375

And this technique, it's one of the

nicest things to paint, so that cleaning

00:02:12,375 --> 00:02:14,895

the brush, we'll go right into that.

00:02:14,895 --> 00:02:20,505

They low blue and I reach over here and

get a small amount of the thalo green,

00:02:20,985 --> 00:02:22,575

but they low green is very strong.

00:02:22,605 --> 00:02:23,355

Be careful with it.

00:02:25,050 --> 00:02:27,600

Eat up your whole world, just a heartbeat.

00:02:28,650 --> 00:02:28,860

Okay.

00:02:28,860 --> 00:02:32,280

Now then let's have a little

water here down to make water.

00:02:32,940 --> 00:02:35,640

If it's still water, then

it's going to be level.

00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,600

So pull from the outside in and try to

keep these strokes as straight as you can.

00:02:46,625 --> 00:02:47,135

Okay.

00:02:47,225 --> 00:02:48,275

A little more of the paint.

00:02:49,525 --> 00:02:51,655

We'll go on the other side, do

the same thing, but I'm pulling

00:02:51,655 --> 00:02:55,375

from the outside in outside.

00:02:55,595 --> 00:02:58,975

And then I want to leave a little

light area here in the center.

00:02:59,605 --> 00:03:02,815

If everything works just right when

we're finished, I look like a little

00:03:02,815 --> 00:03:04,525

sheen of light coming across there.

00:03:06,330 --> 00:03:08,940

But by starting at the bottom

and working upward, this should

00:03:08,940 --> 00:03:10,200

be a little darker than here.

00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,400

Everything in a landscape toward the

horizon should be lighter in value.

00:03:15,450 --> 00:03:16,890

Let's wash your old brush off.

00:03:18,210 --> 00:03:21,510

And as you know, we wash our

brushes with odorless paint thinner

00:03:24,660 --> 00:03:26,010

and just beat the devil out of it.

00:03:26,730 --> 00:03:30,570

Now with a clean, dry brush, you

can just very gently go all the way

00:03:30,570 --> 00:03:33,359

across this and bring it all together.

00:03:33,630 --> 00:03:35,790

That light area still remains in here.

00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,100

But you can pull it and move it

any way that you wanted because the

00:03:40,100 --> 00:03:42,320

canvas is a wet for the liquid white.

00:03:42,590 --> 00:03:43,670

You can move color.

00:03:45,090 --> 00:03:45,590

Yeah.

00:03:48,170 --> 00:03:48,650

All right.

00:03:48,650 --> 00:03:54,680

That gives us a nice, nice little

sky and water area in today.

00:03:55,454 --> 00:03:57,255

As I mentioned earlier, we're

going to spend most of this

00:03:57,255 --> 00:03:58,835

show working on mountains.

00:03:58,835 --> 00:04:00,915

So I'm not even going to put

any clouds in the sky today.

00:04:01,815 --> 00:04:05,655

Let's take a little, a little black,

midnight, black, a little bit of the

00:04:06,225 --> 00:04:11,775

pressure and blue and some alizarin

Crimson, maybe a little Bandag Brown.

00:04:12,855 --> 00:04:13,394

There we go.

00:04:13,545 --> 00:04:18,195

Something like, so we're looking

for a very dark color, very dark.

00:04:18,195 --> 00:04:20,894

It should look black, pull the

paint out as flat as you can.

00:04:20,894 --> 00:04:21,915

Get it, get tough with it.

00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,410

And go straight down, cut

off our little roll of paint.

00:04:25,530 --> 00:04:28,410

So you have a little reel of paint lays

right out on the edge of the knife.

00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,430

That's most important.

00:04:29,460 --> 00:04:30,060

Let's go up here.

00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:31,170

Now.

00:04:31,170 --> 00:04:35,520

The first major decision we have to make

in this painting is, is our mountains

00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,480

going to live since we're going to devote

a lot of time to mountains, let's put

00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,520

several different mountains in here.

00:04:43,425 --> 00:04:46,995

And all we're worried about when we

first start is this nice top edge.

00:04:47,265 --> 00:04:48,105

We could care less.

00:04:48,105 --> 00:04:49,065

What's happening in here.

00:04:50,415 --> 00:04:52,155

All you're looking for is this page.

00:04:53,265 --> 00:04:55,755

And you can probably hear how

hard I'm scraping the canvas.

00:04:56,305 --> 00:04:58,215

You want to remove all the excess paint.

00:04:58,875 --> 00:05:01,784

There's actually very

little pain on the canvas.

00:05:02,805 --> 00:05:03,675

Very little paint.

00:05:04,784 --> 00:05:06,315

Don't be afraid to scrape it hard.

00:05:06,315 --> 00:05:07,605

You're not going to hurt this canvas.

00:05:07,605 --> 00:05:10,755

It's tough and shoot, who knows?

00:05:10,784 --> 00:05:11,775

Maybe this comes over.

00:05:12,645 --> 00:05:13,995

Maybe there's a big mountain up here.

00:05:15,075 --> 00:05:16,725

That'll give us a lot of practice space.

00:05:17,865 --> 00:05:19,185

Maybe there's another bump there.

100

00:05:19,575 --> 00:05:20,785

I don't know wherever you want.

101

00:05:22,275 --> 00:05:27,915

When you're doing mountains, just

sorta sorta make them up in your mind.

102

00:05:28,515 --> 00:05:33,105

The one thing that I would suggest don't

make just a bunch of teepees by cat.

103

00:05:33,475 --> 00:05:38,565

It ends up looking like wigwam

village, really put a little shape

104

00:05:38,565 --> 00:05:40,105

and some flavor into your mouth.

105

00:05:40,305 --> 00:05:41,475

They're more interesting that way.

106

00:05:42,914 --> 00:05:44,804

Shoot, maybe we'll even

put another bump over here.

107

00:05:47,775 --> 00:05:52,875

The other thing that I would recommend if

this is your first time doing mountains,

108

00:05:52,875 --> 00:05:54,344

or are you just starting to paint with us?

109

00:05:55,244 --> 00:05:58,784

I would strongly suggest that

you make your initial mountains

110

00:05:59,174 --> 00:06:00,885

with just a few peaks on them.

111

00:06:01,635 --> 00:06:05,715

It's very easy to jump in here and

make about 40 little peaks, but

112

00:06:05,715 --> 00:06:07,215

each one of those peaks has to be.

113

00:06:08,175 --> 00:06:10,335

It has to have highlight and

it has to have shadow on it.

114

00:06:10,935 --> 00:06:12,465

So start off simple.

115

00:06:13,185 --> 00:06:17,594

And as you learn and you become

familiar with the equipment, then

116

00:06:17,594 --> 00:06:21,284

you can, you can get more and more

difficult with what you're doing.

117

00:06:22,425 --> 00:06:25,305

Now, they, with a large brush,

I'm just going to pull this color

118

00:06:25,755 --> 00:06:27,075

once again, because it's wet.

119

00:06:27,375 --> 00:06:28,545

You can move color.

120

00:06:29,534 --> 00:06:32,145

If this was a dry canvas,

you'd be an agony city.

121

00:06:32,145 --> 00:06:33,075

When you try to do this.

122

00:06:34,605 --> 00:06:36,255

But you can literally move color.

123

00:06:36,435 --> 00:06:40,395

And when you're painting mountains,

mountain should always be more distinct

124

00:06:40,515 --> 00:06:42,435

on the top than they are on the bottom.

125

00:06:43,455 --> 00:06:45,705

And by doing this blending,

it does two things.

126

00:06:46,455 --> 00:06:49,724

It creates that illusion that it's

lighter down here than up here.

127

00:06:50,565 --> 00:06:51,105

Plus.

128

00:06:51,750 --> 00:06:53,280

It removes excess paint.

129

00:06:53,789 --> 00:07:01,640

So your next layer or your highlights will

stick much, much easier there for years.

130

00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,659

And that, and I taught classes all over

the country and this was always the

131

00:07:05,659 --> 00:07:07,520

most popular thing for people to do.

132

00:07:08,210 --> 00:07:12,200

And we liked it because it,

it teaches people to use the

133

00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,060

old, the old pallet knife here.

134

00:07:14,599 --> 00:07:16,909

And once you make friends

with this knife, it's unreal.

135

00:07:16,909 --> 00:07:17,719

What you can do with it.

136

00:07:18,690 --> 00:07:22,110

I remember one of the earlier series

we painted the entire scene, the

137

00:07:22,110 --> 00:07:24,000

entire painting using only the knife.

138

00:07:24,300 --> 00:07:26,130

And that's how versatile it is.

139

00:07:26,130 --> 00:07:30,300

If you'll just give it a chance, let's

highlight this with just titanium white

140

00:07:30,300 --> 00:07:35,370

today, pull it out very flat, flat as

you can get it and cut across once again.

141

00:07:35,370 --> 00:07:36,570

We need that little roll of paint.

142

00:07:36,599 --> 00:07:37,260

Let's do that again.

143

00:07:37,260 --> 00:07:38,400

So you can see it flat.

144

00:07:39,630 --> 00:07:43,890

Then just cut across a little rule of

paint right out on the edge of the knife.

145

00:07:44,250 --> 00:07:46,110

It's a very important now then.

146

00:07:46,710 --> 00:07:47,640

Must make a decision.

147

00:07:47,670 --> 00:07:48,780

Where's your light source.

148

00:07:49,410 --> 00:07:51,510

Normally, if you're right-handed,

it's easier to have the

149

00:07:51,510 --> 00:07:52,740

light coming from the right.

150

00:07:52,950 --> 00:07:56,250

If you're left-handed, it will

vary because left-handed people

151

00:07:56,250 --> 00:07:58,740

have been forced to do right-handed

things their entire life.

152

00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,360

So it will vary if you're, left-handed try

it both ways and see which way works well

153

00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,700

for you now, then let's go right up here.

154

00:08:05,970 --> 00:08:06,960

Take the point of the knife.

155

00:08:07,380 --> 00:08:10,919

Put it right up here at the point of

this mountain and just come right down,

156

00:08:11,010 --> 00:08:12,450

falling the angles in the mountain.

157

00:08:12,539 --> 00:08:13,859

Applying no pressure.

158

00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,250

Absolutely no pressure at all.

159

00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:20,130

No pressure.

160

00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:26,340

If you apply a lot of pressure,

you're going to end up with paint

161

00:08:26,340 --> 00:08:30,810

here that looks like you've iced the

cake and you can put shape in here.

162

00:08:31,335 --> 00:08:34,845

Change things, move them, anything

that you want, you can do here.

163

00:08:35,924 --> 00:08:38,444

Let's put in some highlights and

we'll come back and do some shadows.

164

00:08:38,444 --> 00:08:39,465

Maybe we'll go over here.

165

00:08:40,385 --> 00:08:43,625

Let's put a few highlights right

here, this great big old mountain.

166

00:08:44,044 --> 00:08:44,855

Follow the angle.

167

00:08:44,875 --> 00:08:48,275

So follow the angles

that you've put in here.

168

00:08:49,475 --> 00:08:50,285

There we go.

169

00:08:50,435 --> 00:08:56,944

See those angles are very,

very important, very important.

170

00:08:58,085 --> 00:08:59,915

They're your best friend when

you're doing the mountains.

171

00:09:01,665 --> 00:09:02,505

A little peak here.

172

00:09:02,565 --> 00:09:04,875

Maybe there's a little light

that just bounces right up here.

173

00:09:05,025 --> 00:09:06,705

Seeing has fun.

174

00:09:07,575 --> 00:09:09,405

Maybe for practice purposes.

175

00:09:09,435 --> 00:09:10,845

Let's just bring this all the way down.

176

00:09:12,255 --> 00:09:15,345

Now, when I was first learning

this, what I would do is get a huge

177

00:09:15,375 --> 00:09:20,085

canvas, maybe 30 to 40 inches and

start at the top and paint mountains

178

00:09:20,085 --> 00:09:21,195

all the way down to the bottom.

179

00:09:21,495 --> 00:09:24,555

And when I got to the bottom,

I had a big putty knife is back

180

00:09:24,555 --> 00:09:28,365

six inches across, take the putty

knife and go zip it all off.

181

00:09:28,785 --> 00:09:29,805

I know it sounds horrible.

182

00:09:30,735 --> 00:09:35,535

But that's the best way to learn is by

repetition, doing things over and over.

183

00:09:36,435 --> 00:09:39,825

So devote a little time to

practicing, like it, it will

184

00:09:39,825 --> 00:09:41,715

pay you tremendous dividends.

185

00:09:43,245 --> 00:09:43,755

Okay.

186

00:09:44,335 --> 00:09:46,995

Let's take a little, I'm

gonna just use a little blue.

187

00:09:48,015 --> 00:09:49,065

That'll stay low blue and white.

188

00:09:49,065 --> 00:09:49,575

That's fine.

189

00:09:49,575 --> 00:09:49,995

For today.

190

00:09:50,955 --> 00:09:54,315

You can vary these colors any way

you want them to make mountains.

191

00:09:54,795 --> 00:09:56,205

The way that you see them.

192

00:09:57,450 --> 00:09:58,350

Our little roll of paint.

193

00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:03,960

Once again, now that you notice

all these angles of highlight color

194

00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,450

going, basically the same angle.

195

00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,410

Now, all the shadows were going

the opposing or the opposite.

196

00:10:10,980 --> 00:10:12,480

See, just follow right down.

197

00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,130

You're still falling the basic angles.

198

00:10:15,540 --> 00:10:16,320

No pressure.

199

00:10:16,350 --> 00:10:17,880

You want that paint to break?

200

00:10:18,830 --> 00:10:19,580

Let it break.

201

00:10:21,110 --> 00:10:24,560

Now, this is one of the simplest

types of mountains there is to make.

202

00:10:26,910 --> 00:10:31,230

If this is your first painting or two,

I would suggest you do these types of

203

00:10:31,230 --> 00:10:35,160

mountains to become familiar with the

equipment and what happens in the paints.

204

00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,400

And as we mentioned earlier, once

you become confident with this, then

205

00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,700

you can begin making all kinds of

beautiful, beautiful mountains there.

206

00:10:46,700 --> 00:10:49,550

They're just sort of let

these blend together.

207

00:10:50,775 --> 00:10:52,035

Maybe watch right here.

208

00:10:52,245 --> 00:10:53,355

This is, this is neat.

209

00:10:54,135 --> 00:10:55,325

You have to make big decisions.

210

00:10:55,345 --> 00:10:59,535

This peak on this side or the backside,

let's put it on the backside to

211

00:10:59,535 --> 00:11:05,655

do that, but that shadow in first,

like, so now this shadow you want

212

00:11:05,655 --> 00:11:07,785

to bring distinctly through it.

213

00:11:07,905 --> 00:11:08,925

Eric comes here, comes.

214

00:11:09,555 --> 00:11:11,865

Look at that see had

pushed that one right back.

215

00:11:13,095 --> 00:11:14,325

He didn't know you had such power.

216

00:11:14,325 --> 00:11:14,745

Did you?

217

00:11:16,575 --> 00:11:17,925

You can move mountains.

218

00:11:18,285 --> 00:11:19,814

You really can move mountains.

219

00:11:20,265 --> 00:11:25,485

At least on this canvas on this

canvas, you can do any thing that

220

00:11:25,485 --> 00:11:29,025

you want to do and you can do it.

221

00:11:31,665 --> 00:11:31,845

Okay.

222

00:11:31,845 --> 00:11:34,455

Now this one over here.

223

00:11:35,444 --> 00:11:36,194

Same thing.

224

00:11:36,225 --> 00:11:37,574

It needs a shadow.

225

00:11:37,605 --> 00:11:39,645

Every highlight needs

its own private shadow.

226

00:11:41,915 --> 00:11:42,395

There we go.

227

00:11:43,415 --> 00:11:43,564

Yeah.

228

00:11:43,775 --> 00:11:47,105

Sometimes it's fun to make

like little areas in here.

229

00:11:47,765 --> 00:11:49,895

All you have to do a

little recessed areas.

230

00:11:49,915 --> 00:11:52,685

All you have to do is put a

shadow with, and they just watch.

231

00:11:52,895 --> 00:11:56,525

If you want one right here, just

to put a shadow, but notice the

232

00:11:56,525 --> 00:11:59,915

angles, all the angles of the shadows

are basically the same direction.

233

00:12:00,035 --> 00:12:02,344

All the angles of the highlight

are basically the same.

234

00:12:03,060 --> 00:12:06,420

Because light's only going to strike at

a given angle when it comes through here.

235

00:12:07,230 --> 00:12:11,400

And maybe, maybe in your

world, you decide, Hey, I think

236

00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:12,600

there should be a peak, right?

237

00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:12,980

Yeah.

238

00:12:14,300 --> 00:12:14,870

Watch here.

239

00:12:16,430 --> 00:12:17,030

Watch here.

240

00:12:17,270 --> 00:12:17,720

Sit here.

241

00:12:18,290 --> 00:12:19,340

No pressure though.

242

00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:23,270

In the knife, this breaking or the

holes left in here, what really,

243

00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,090

really create beautiful effects.

244

00:12:27,470 --> 00:12:27,980

Look at that.

245

00:12:29,540 --> 00:12:30,680

Let it float through there.

246

00:12:31,125 --> 00:12:37,035

And you can make it wider any way that

you want, but now see what it looks like.

247

00:12:37,395 --> 00:12:42,375

It doesn't look right until you come

back up here and add this shadow in.

248

00:12:43,035 --> 00:12:43,845

Look at the difference.

249

00:12:45,435 --> 00:12:48,105

Look at the difference just by

putting that little shadow here

250

00:12:49,275 --> 00:12:53,325

and you can carry this own through

the whole canvas and makeup.

251

00:12:53,925 --> 00:12:59,565

Just all kinds of little things that

maybe we'll strengthen this line here

252

00:12:59,625 --> 00:13:06,455

and that'll pull it in right there

and pay attention to what's happening.

253

00:13:06,455 --> 00:13:10,235

Sometimes, sometimes beautiful

thing will happen when that happens.

254

00:13:10,235 --> 00:13:14,465

And just try to remember how you did

it and the next time that you want that

255

00:13:14,465 --> 00:13:16,505

effect, then you'll know how to do it.

256

00:13:19,505 --> 00:13:20,315

There we go.

257

00:13:22,385 --> 00:13:22,895

See you there.

258

00:13:23,295 --> 00:13:26,145

But you can create all kinds

of little valleys and Hills,

259

00:13:26,655 --> 00:13:27,615

and you're never limited.

260

00:13:27,645 --> 00:13:29,775

You can continually change this.

261

00:13:30,165 --> 00:13:36,255

You can add to them, subtract anything

that you want to do, because if you've

262

00:13:36,255 --> 00:13:41,775

painted with me before, you know, we don't

make mistakes, we have happy accidents.

263

00:13:42,705 --> 00:13:46,065

You learn to work with everything

that happens in that's that's

264

00:13:46,245 --> 00:13:49,005

when you get over any fear of

painting it, it really becomes fun.

265

00:13:50,265 --> 00:13:54,705

Now, then we want to create the illusion

of missed down here at the base.

266

00:13:55,365 --> 00:14:00,705

So we take a clean, dry to

enterprise and we just have, but

267

00:14:00,705 --> 00:14:02,805

pay very close attention to angles.

268

00:14:03,165 --> 00:14:06,045

If this comes in this angle, you

don't want to tap it like that.

269

00:14:06,615 --> 00:14:07,545

Follow the angles.

270

00:14:07,545 --> 00:14:13,185

I know that sounds sort of silly to say,

but sometimes we get carried away and we

271

00:14:13,185 --> 00:14:16,065

just go across the bottom and hit like

head and it looks like somebody took a

272

00:14:16,065 --> 00:14:17,925

big ax and whacked the bottom of it off.

273

00:14:19,365 --> 00:14:22,005

Follow the angles over on

this side, you go in this

274

00:14:22,005 --> 00:14:24,495

direction, see wherever they go.

275

00:14:24,645 --> 00:14:27,495

Like here, you can blend these

two together a little bit.

276

00:14:28,035 --> 00:14:29,745

The angles are very important.

277

00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,579

Softly, bring them together.

278

00:14:32,969 --> 00:14:37,319

I lift upward once again, following

the angles that removes all a little

279

00:14:37,319 --> 00:14:39,150

tap marks brings everything together.

280

00:14:39,199 --> 00:14:39,349

Sure.

281

00:14:43,069 --> 00:14:46,760

Isn't that a fantastic way though, to

make some very effective little mountains.

282

00:14:47,775 --> 00:14:48,675

And it'll work for you.

283

00:14:49,335 --> 00:14:50,505

It will work for you.

284

00:14:52,605 --> 00:14:53,235

There we go.

285

00:14:53,235 --> 00:14:54,285

Now let's have some fun.

286

00:14:54,765 --> 00:14:54,945

Okay.

287

00:14:54,945 --> 00:15:00,255

You want let's do, let's take, we'll

just use that old mountain color that

288

00:15:00,255 --> 00:15:03,105

we had and add some SAP green to it.

289

00:15:05,145 --> 00:15:08,545

Just whatever we lose looking

basically for a dark color, put

290

00:15:08,545 --> 00:15:09,645

a little bit of white in it.

291

00:15:11,175 --> 00:15:11,835

There we go.

292

00:15:11,925 --> 00:15:15,645

Just to, she has to sparkle it

up some little bit of white.

293

00:15:17,535 --> 00:15:19,485

There don't, overmix your color.

294

00:15:19,485 --> 00:15:21,495

Look at all the different things

that are happening in there.

295

00:15:21,555 --> 00:15:24,905

Let me wipe my knife there.

296

00:15:26,165 --> 00:15:28,715

Now that we can just use

the old two inch brush.

297

00:15:28,715 --> 00:15:29,345

It doesn't matter.

298

00:15:29,945 --> 00:15:31,625

Just tap a little that right in there.

299

00:15:32,205 --> 00:15:36,245

See, just get a little color red on that

two inch brush and we'll make some little,

300

00:15:36,665 --> 00:15:42,935

some little footy Hills that live way

back here, there, maybe in our world.

301

00:15:43,935 --> 00:15:48,255

Maybe there's a little area back

in here where there's all kinds of

302

00:15:48,255 --> 00:15:51,314

little trees growing down at the

base of these faking mountains.

303

00:15:53,385 --> 00:15:54,455

We don't know where they go.

304

00:15:54,525 --> 00:15:55,545

Don't know that we care.

305

00:15:57,555 --> 00:15:59,775

Just want to put all these

little shapes in here.

306

00:16:01,830 --> 00:16:02,280

There.

307

00:16:03,060 --> 00:16:06,900

And you can do this with a fan

brush, one inch brush, any old thing.

308

00:16:10,470 --> 00:16:12,420

Oh, we're doing noise

using just the corner.

309

00:16:12,990 --> 00:16:17,790

Now, if we want to create a mist

in here, once again, we'll take

310

00:16:17,790 --> 00:16:21,290

the two inch brush, clean dry when

I'm not using the same brush and

311

00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:23,880

the happy, very firmly on the base.

312

00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,760

Only, only on the base.

313

00:16:27,870 --> 00:16:29,190

Now another little thing it's fun.

314

00:16:29,610 --> 00:16:31,740

If you want to make it look like

little trees back here, I'll

315

00:16:31,740 --> 00:16:32,850

just use a one inch brush day.

316

00:16:32,850 --> 00:16:33,780

Cause I picked that up.

317

00:16:34,545 --> 00:16:35,745

Two inch work just as well.

318

00:16:36,105 --> 00:16:41,385

Lift gently, upward and little

short, tiny strokes, tiny little

319

00:16:41,385 --> 00:16:44,115

stroke, tiny little strokes.

320

00:16:44,325 --> 00:16:44,985

There we go.

321

00:16:46,395 --> 00:16:47,145

Here we go.

322

00:16:47,475 --> 00:16:48,195

Just have a day.

323

00:16:48,495 --> 00:16:50,295

There was a letter in her newsletter.

324

00:16:50,295 --> 00:16:53,625

Somebody had written saying they

were having problems with this.

325

00:16:54,765 --> 00:16:58,155

And usually the problem comes

from making big strokes.

326

00:16:58,155 --> 00:17:02,535

You go from bottom all the way up, make

tiny little strokes and work in layers.

327

00:17:03,945 --> 00:17:05,595

Okay, now let's go back.

328

00:17:06,615 --> 00:17:10,964

Same old brush and let's come

right in here and drop in

329

00:17:12,435 --> 00:17:14,115

little thing lives right there.

330

00:17:15,464 --> 00:17:15,974

Like, so

331

00:17:19,005 --> 00:17:22,605

there, maybe it comes right on up here.

332

00:17:24,825 --> 00:17:25,335

There we go.

333

00:17:26,895 --> 00:17:27,255

Okay.

334

00:17:28,035 --> 00:17:31,035

Maybe it comes right over here, Mike.

335

00:17:31,035 --> 00:17:34,875

So wherever you want, just let him go.

336

00:17:38,025 --> 00:17:40,995

But you can make layer after layer,

after layer of these little foothills,

337

00:17:41,925 --> 00:17:45,495

the only thing that little Misty

you is all that separates them.

338

00:17:46,155 --> 00:17:47,295

So it's very important.

339

00:17:47,505 --> 00:17:48,545

Don't let that little Misty here.

340

00:17:48,545 --> 00:17:49,305

You get away from me.

341

00:17:51,645 --> 00:17:52,275

There we go.

342

00:17:52,785 --> 00:17:56,145

Now, while we have that color

on the brush, maybe there's some

343

00:17:56,145 --> 00:17:57,765

reflections into the water here.

344

00:17:58,275 --> 00:18:06,395

And all we got to do is to, and pull

down, just touch it and pulled out their

345

00:18:10,385 --> 00:18:10,805

hair.

346

00:18:11,945 --> 00:18:12,155

Yeah.

347

00:18:12,215 --> 00:18:15,035

Let me find a relatively clean brush here.

348

00:18:15,905 --> 00:18:15,995

Okay.

349

00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:17,340

Pull it down.

350

00:18:21,420 --> 00:18:25,470

It's important that these come straight

down now we'll go across and you

351

00:18:25,470 --> 00:18:27,900

can move those C you can push them.

352

00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,010

Cause a canvas as a weapon,

you can move this anywhere.

353

00:18:32,010 --> 00:18:36,240

You want it to go and you can make

those little lines wiggled in Jacob,

354

00:18:37,770 --> 00:18:40,350

and it gives you the feeling of water.

355

00:18:41,850 --> 00:18:42,389

That easy.

356

00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:45,899

Maybe one of the nicest things

that's happened in this technique

357

00:18:46,620 --> 00:18:48,330

is, is making reflections.

358

00:18:48,419 --> 00:18:51,120

When I was traditional painter

reflections used to drive me crazy.

359

00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:55,169

I can remember even taking him

and turning, turning the canvas

360

00:18:55,169 --> 00:18:58,080

upside down and repainting the

picture over and then try to make

361

00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,000

it go wiggle, wiggle, and all that.

362

00:19:01,460 --> 00:19:06,100

Take a little bit of the liquid

point little touch of titanium white.

363

00:19:06,100 --> 00:19:08,890

I put the liquid white in there

only to thin the titanium white.

364

00:19:09,790 --> 00:19:10,600

Now I'll be right back.

365

00:19:10,780 --> 00:19:14,650

Get a little touch of the

Brown loo touch a dark Sienna.

366

00:19:15,790 --> 00:19:18,700

Now this pain is thinner than

what we would normally use.

367

00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,770

So it'll slide on easier.

368

00:19:20,770 --> 00:19:23,230

I'm gonna get a tiny little

roll of paint right on the edge.

369

00:19:24,210 --> 00:19:28,860

And then let's go up in here and put the

indication and I'm scrubbing quite hard.

370

00:19:29,909 --> 00:19:34,919

The indication here, I have a little,

little sand sandbars and all that that

371

00:19:34,919 --> 00:19:37,560

happened right here at the water's edge.

372

00:19:39,179 --> 00:19:39,870

There we go.

373

00:19:40,350 --> 00:19:44,700

But you can probably hear how hard

I'm scrubbing, ready to get in there.

374

00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:46,200

We'll work on it.

375

00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,389

Maybe see, maybe there's a little recess

Derrick in there that sort of happens.

376

00:19:52,350 --> 00:19:57,360

That comes and that's where that

big trout lifts right up in there.

377

00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:01,740

So when you're out and you canoe

fishing, this is where you want to go.

378

00:20:02,550 --> 00:20:03,450

I love to fish.

379

00:20:04,629 --> 00:20:05,159

I love to fish.

380

00:20:05,159 --> 00:20:06,480

I'm not a very good fishermen though.

381

00:20:07,770 --> 00:20:11,760

I catch one and I put a bandaid on his lip

and give him a little CPR and Patty one

382

00:20:11,780 --> 00:20:12,990

to two tooth, but he backed in the water.

383

00:20:14,139 --> 00:20:15,810

Hope I can catch him again some other day.

384

00:20:18,419 --> 00:20:22,379

Okay, that gives us a nice mountain and

a little background area very easily.

385

00:20:22,379 --> 00:20:24,600

I hope this has really

helped you with mountains.

386

00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,800

If you're having any problems with

them now, then let's just put something

387

00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,389

down here to finish up the painting.

388

00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,620

Didn't really matter.

389

00:20:32,879 --> 00:20:33,899

Clean off my palette.

390

00:20:34,469 --> 00:20:40,469

Let's take some black Prussian,

blue, little other SAP, green

391

00:20:40,500 --> 00:20:43,560

Crimson, any old dark color you got.

392

00:20:45,225 --> 00:20:46,395

Any old dark color.

393

00:20:47,145 --> 00:20:47,505

Okay.

394

00:20:48,015 --> 00:20:49,065

Mix them up a little bit.

395

00:20:49,215 --> 00:20:50,475

Let me clean off the knife here.

396

00:20:52,215 --> 00:20:55,725

Now, then today, I'm going to tell you

what, let me find a fan brush here.

397

00:20:55,725 --> 00:20:57,645

This clean there.

398

00:20:58,665 --> 00:20:59,895

Let's use the old fan brush.

399

00:21:02,145 --> 00:21:04,635

Put a lot of color on my lot of color.

400

00:21:05,415 --> 00:21:06,525

Okay, let's go right up here.

401

00:21:07,155 --> 00:21:07,305

Now.

402

00:21:07,305 --> 00:21:09,465

Then the first big

decision we have to make.

403

00:21:10,410 --> 00:21:12,240

If we're going to have a

tree, for example, here's

404

00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:13,320

where that tree going to live.

405

00:21:13,700 --> 00:21:15,770

Put him right about there.

406

00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:16,580

Sorry.

407

00:21:16,610 --> 00:21:17,750

Start off with just a little line.

408

00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,390

And normally when we're

making these trees, we pushed

409

00:21:20,390 --> 00:21:21,440

downward with the fan brush.

410

00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,390

It has little hangie

downs all underneath it.

411

00:21:24,020 --> 00:21:28,310

I think today what I'll do is maybe

make a different kind of tree and we'll

412

00:21:28,310 --> 00:21:31,070

push it upward and see how that works.

413

00:21:31,610 --> 00:21:31,910

Okay.

414

00:21:32,060 --> 00:21:32,780

Come right up here.

415

00:21:33,530 --> 00:21:34,940

Give me a little upward push.

416

00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,100

Flags.

417

00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:46,110

So this is a nice way of making a

very effective little tree push in the

418

00:21:46,110 --> 00:21:48,810

farther down the tree you work, I'm

still using the corner of the brush.

419

00:21:49,260 --> 00:21:51,210

I just push harder and harder.

420

00:21:53,190 --> 00:21:55,440

So the bristles spread out more and more.

421

00:21:56,505 --> 00:21:59,775

And automatically your tree will

get bigger down toward the base.

422

00:22:01,245 --> 00:22:01,905

There we go.

423

00:22:04,275 --> 00:22:05,595

Super nice, easy way.

424

00:22:05,785 --> 00:22:09,075

Making a little tree now then let's

go on the other side of the canvas.

425

00:22:09,075 --> 00:22:10,155

So here we don't want it left out.

426

00:22:10,155 --> 00:22:11,415

Maybe there's a tree.

427

00:22:11,415 --> 00:22:12,285

It lives over here.

428

00:22:13,545 --> 00:22:14,205

Same thing.

429

00:22:14,325 --> 00:22:15,705

Give it a little upward push.

430

00:22:17,835 --> 00:22:18,825

Maybe where you live.

431

00:22:19,185 --> 00:22:24,375

You want evergreen trees have limbs

that hang down and that's okay.

432

00:22:24,855 --> 00:22:29,325

All you can do is reverse the

brush, push it down any way

433

00:22:29,325 --> 00:22:30,165

that you want to make them.

434

00:22:31,004 --> 00:22:32,774

It's completely and totally up to you.

435

00:22:34,365 --> 00:22:35,115

There we go.

436

00:22:37,785 --> 00:22:38,295

All right.

437

00:22:38,445 --> 00:22:41,355

We have to just keep on going here and you

can make his tree as big as you want it.

438

00:22:41,985 --> 00:22:45,585

These are also very nice to make with a

one or two inch brush works just as well.

439

00:22:46,245 --> 00:22:49,155

Not quite as much detail, but still works.

440

00:22:50,115 --> 00:22:52,185

Now sometimes when you're going over.

441

00:22:52,665 --> 00:22:56,415

A lot of thick white paint,

like, yes, it's very difficult

442

00:22:56,415 --> 00:22:57,344

to get the paint to stick.

443

00:22:57,344 --> 00:22:59,955

If that should happen, we didn't

have any problems this time, but if

444

00:22:59,955 --> 00:23:06,465

it should happen at a little bit,

little bit of paint, thinner to your

445

00:23:06,465 --> 00:23:09,254

paint and that'll thin it down enough

that it'll stick right in there.

446

00:23:10,925 --> 00:23:11,554

Here we go home.

447

00:23:11,554 --> 00:23:13,235

We got the little brush go

and I'll just go right through

448

00:23:13,235 --> 00:23:14,284

a little bit of CAD yellow.

449

00:23:15,064 --> 00:23:17,764

And since there's blue in

that color automatically.

450

00:23:18,810 --> 00:23:21,540

We'll get a beautiful green

and we can come back here and

451

00:23:21,540 --> 00:23:22,770

just highlight these trees.

452

00:23:22,770 --> 00:23:24,570

A little don't overdue.

453

00:23:25,020 --> 00:23:30,120

Evergreens are normally quite

dark, quite dark, and you can kill

454

00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:31,740

that beautiful darkness real easy.

455

00:23:32,909 --> 00:23:36,600

Let's go back on the other side, get that

one while we're working there we are.

456

00:23:39,389 --> 00:23:39,780

Okay.

457

00:23:41,790 --> 00:23:46,169

And that makes all those little films and

things that are so pretty in a painting.

458

00:23:47,130 --> 00:23:50,880

Okay, let's get all two inch brush.

459

00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,380

We go right into that dark color.

460

00:23:53,220 --> 00:24:00,750

Now under this tree, we have a

nice collection of bushes there.

461

00:24:00,750 --> 00:24:10,080

They are just drop them in, just drop them

in, push upward with this brush though,

462

00:24:10,140 --> 00:24:11,700

to make all those things just happen.

463

00:24:18,409 --> 00:24:19,970

And all we're doing is

just filling the sand.

464

00:24:19,970 --> 00:24:21,860

You could, you could

do this with your shoe.

465

00:24:22,010 --> 00:24:22,639

It doesn't matter.

466

00:24:23,210 --> 00:24:23,659

Whatever.

467

00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:29,570

We're just filling in a lot of area

very quickly in a big old brush works.

468

00:24:29,570 --> 00:24:30,110

Very nice.

469

00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:33,889

Yeah.

470

00:24:34,730 --> 00:24:37,580

We use the old one inch brush

today on dip it into a little,

471

00:24:37,580 --> 00:24:39,800

the liquid white go through.

472

00:24:40,409 --> 00:24:42,120

Let's go through some of the CAD yellow.

473

00:24:42,929 --> 00:24:45,210

Now maybe, maybe you

want to show a spring.

474

00:24:45,629 --> 00:24:49,439

Let's take a little to thalo

green and mix it right in there.

475

00:24:50,300 --> 00:24:51,590

Lot of pain on the bristles.

476

00:24:52,379 --> 00:24:52,620

Okay.

477

00:24:55,550 --> 00:24:56,840

Spring's usually brighter.

478

00:24:57,139 --> 00:25:02,419

Cheerier the fatal Greenville, a

very bright, shiny green her chest.

479

00:25:02,419 --> 00:25:05,480

If you're not careful, there we go.

480

00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,370

And work in layers, do one Bush at a time.

481

00:25:08,850 --> 00:25:10,169

Don't get in too big of hurry.

482

00:25:12,110 --> 00:25:12,770

There we are.

483

00:25:14,930 --> 00:25:18,530

You see how you can just make layer

after layer though, using just one color.

484

00:25:19,940 --> 00:25:21,500

And I will warn you though.

485

00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,040

Using one color is much more

difficult than using a lot of colors.

486

00:25:28,070 --> 00:25:32,330

Sometimes it's, it's easier

to, he was quite a few colors.

487

00:25:32,850 --> 00:25:37,770

In that way, color separates as

well as differences in values or

488

00:25:37,770 --> 00:25:41,760

intensity or dark against light there.

489

00:25:43,020 --> 00:25:43,380

Okay.

490

00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,420

Maybe there's a happy

little Bush right there.

491

00:25:46,290 --> 00:25:47,430

Just bring all these together.

492

00:25:47,430 --> 00:25:48,270

It doesn't much better.

493

00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,220

The big thing was we wanted to work

on some beautiful little mountains

494

00:25:53,220 --> 00:25:55,620

today, show you how to do those.

495

00:25:57,210 --> 00:26:00,390

So I say that still is the number

one thing that we get requests for.

496

00:26:01,365 --> 00:26:04,485

It's also the number one thing that I

hear that people are having problems with.

497

00:26:05,235 --> 00:26:08,685

So I hope, I hope this has really

helped you if you are having problems

498

00:26:09,075 --> 00:26:13,425

and chances are, maybe you're not

having a problem, but if you are,

499

00:26:14,415 --> 00:26:17,415

I hope this helps eliminate here.

500

00:26:17,415 --> 00:26:20,085

We're just using the side of the brush

and dropping in some little bushy

501

00:26:20,085 --> 00:26:25,155

areas that easy, maybe one right here.

502

00:26:27,165 --> 00:26:31,065

And we can take a clean knife, just go

around scraping a few little sticks,

503

00:26:31,455 --> 00:26:33,795

little twigs, happy little things like it.

504

00:26:34,935 --> 00:26:36,465

Shouldn't you got to

have a finished painting.

505

00:26:37,935 --> 00:26:38,895

That's always to it.

506

00:26:41,595 --> 00:26:45,135

And I really hope once again, if you were

having any problems with mountains, this

507

00:26:45,135 --> 00:26:47,145

is, this has helped cure your problems.

508

00:26:47,715 --> 00:26:48,405

Let me hear from you.

509

00:26:48,405 --> 00:26:49,515

Drop me a line sometime.

510

00:26:49,545 --> 00:26:52,035

We're going to call this one,

finished from all of us happy

511

00:26:52,035 --> 00:26:54,225

painting and God bless my friend.
