"The Joy of Painting" Ebony Sea

1 00:00:01,685 --> 00:00:03,417 Hi, welcome back. 2 00:00:03,467 --> 00:00:05,690 Today I thought we'd do a little seascape 3 00:00:05,714 --> 00:00:08,344 that's right off of the California-Oregon coast. 4 00:00:08,394 --> 00:00:12,349 And I've taken the liberty, because we do have time restraints here, 5 00:00:12,373 --> 00:00:16,235 of going ahead and covering a black canvas with transparent color. 6 00:00:16,285 --> 00:00:21,542 Now, what I've done, in the center here, I've put alizarin crimson. 7 00:00:21,592 --> 00:00:24,566 Right in the center and going out in both directions. 8 00:00:24,616 --> 00:00:28,037 And around that, phthalo blue. 9 00:00:28,061 --> 00:00:29,613 And on the bottom, same thing. 10 00:00:29,663 --> 00:00:31,689 So we have a circle here of crimson, 11 00:00:31,739 --> 00:00:35,735 protruding in both directions, and blue around the edges. 12 00:00:35,785 --> 00:00:39,849 Okay, now, let's take the one inch brush, and a little bit of titanium 13 00:00:39,873 --> 00:00:43,785 white paint, and let's figure out here where we want the sun to be. 14 00:00:45,819 --> 00:00:48,930 And we're gonna start, say, right about here, and 15 00:00:48,954 --> 00:00:51,897 we make little tiny Xs, or crisscross strokes. 16 00:00:51,947 --> 00:00:54,541 And just begin working them out. 17 00:00:54,591 --> 00:00:58,155 Never going back toward the center, always working outward, 18 00:00:58,179 --> 00:01:01,524 because you're gonna soon be picking up the blue color. 19 00:01:01,574 --> 00:01:04,508 And let that run right on out like so. 20 00:01:04,558 --> 00:01:05,929 There we go. 21 00:01:07,861 --> 00:01:12,089 See now how it's picking up the blue? 22 00:01:12,587 --> 00:01:13,587 Okay. 23 00:01:14,790 --> 00:01:22,389 Now, let me clean the brush and we can brighten it up just a little bit more. 24 00:01:22,439 --> 00:01:24,551 Okay, a little more titanium white. 25 00:01:24,601 --> 00:01:27,295 Be sure your brush is clean and dry. 26 00:01:27,345 --> 00:01:31,802 Right into the center, working outward. 27 00:01:36,623 --> 00:01:41,561 There we go, look at that son of a gun shine now. 28 00:01:41,611 --> 00:01:47,325 Work it all the way out to the outside edges here. 29 00:01:48,141 --> 00:01:52,238 Okay, now with a large brush, we're gonna go in and 30 00:01:52,262 --> 00:01:56,141 blend this, still making the crisscross strokes. 31 00:01:56,694 --> 00:01:59,594 There we go, gentle. 32 00:01:59,618 --> 00:02:06,932 Just let it go back and forth just to blend the colors together. 33 00:02:08,888 --> 00:02:13,916 Now very carefully take the brush marks out. 34 00:02:14,935 --> 00:02:19,506 Okay, let's wash this old big brush out. 35 00:02:21,422 --> 00:02:22,780 There we go. 36 00:02:22,804 --> 00:02:26,674 Now, if you wanted to make it a little bit brighter, we 37 00:02:26,698 --> 00:02:30,804 can add just the slightest amount of cad yellow and white. 38 00:02:31,714 --> 00:02:34,002 Now you have to be very careful with this because if 39 00:02:34,026 --> 00:02:36,294 the yellow touches the blue, we've got a green sky. 40 00:02:36,344 --> 00:02:40,859 So all we want to do is right around in here, put a little bit of yellow. 41 00:02:40,909 --> 00:02:42,737 Just a tiny bit. 42 00:02:44,853 --> 00:02:49,047 There, that's enough because we're getting very close to the blue. 43 00:02:49,097 --> 00:02:55,497 Now once again with a large brush, we'll blend this out. 44 00:02:56,905 --> 00:02:59,959 Okay, take out the brush strokes. 45 00:03:00,009 --> 00:03:03,868 And we've got the beginnings of a beautiful little sunset here. 46 00:03:03,918 --> 00:03:07,856 Let's use the fan brush and we'll take some Van Dyke 47 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,918 Brown and add it to a little bit of Alizarin Crimson. 48 00:03:13,136 --> 00:03:16,221 Brown and Alizarin Crimson. 49 00:03:16,522 --> 00:03:19,818 And we'll make some happy little clouds floating around up here in the sky. 50 00:03:19,868 --> 00:03:23,674 So let's go right along here and we'll start with 51 00:03:23,698 --> 00:03:27,527 a little cloud coming right across the sun maybe. 52 00:03:27,577 --> 00:03:28,314 There we go. 53 00:03:28,338 --> 00:03:29,930 Push this paint into the canvas. 54 00:03:29,980 --> 00:03:31,694 Really work it. 55 00:03:31,803 --> 00:03:36,145 Maybe there's a big old cloud up here. 56 00:03:37,390 --> 00:03:38,390 There. 57 00:03:39,573 --> 00:03:40,585 Clouds are very free. 58 00:03:40,635 --> 00:03:44,330 Just let them float and have fun. 59 00:03:44,380 --> 00:03:45,751 There we go. 60 00:03:46,943 --> 00:03:49,517 One of the freest things in nature. 61 00:03:49,567 --> 00:03:52,822 Maybe there's a little one here. 62 00:03:52,872 --> 00:03:55,361 Once again, just sort of let your imagination go crazy 63 00:03:55,385 --> 00:03:57,852 and wherever you see a little cloud, just drop it in. 64 00:03:57,902 --> 00:04:01,559 This is your world, your sunset. 65 00:04:02,932 --> 00:04:06,910 Maybe there's another one right in here. 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,845 And maybe up in here, there we go. 67 00:04:11,069 --> 00:04:16,897 Have a big old dark one that's just hiding up here. 68 00:04:17,510 --> 00:04:21,364 Okay, that gives us some basic cloud shapes to work with. 69 00:04:21,414 --> 00:04:26,069 Now we need to highlight these happy little clouds and let some sunlight play on them. 70 00:04:26,119 --> 00:04:31,885 So let's take a little bit of yellow. 71 00:04:33,386 --> 00:04:35,557 This is cad yellow. 72 00:04:35,829 --> 00:04:39,442 And the smallest amount of permanent red. 73 00:04:39,492 --> 00:04:41,444 Just mix them together here. 74 00:04:41,494 --> 00:04:42,865 There we go. 75 00:04:43,136 --> 00:04:46,653 We'll make you some bright, sparkly little clouds. 76 00:04:46,703 --> 00:04:48,916 A lot of paint on the fan brush. 77 00:04:48,966 --> 00:04:54,566 Now, just right above the dark, touch the canvas. 78 00:04:55,935 --> 00:04:57,953 Maybe a tiny bit more of the permanent red in there. 79 00:04:57,977 --> 00:05:00,431 We'll brighten him up a little. 80 00:05:00,481 --> 00:05:08,481 Just touch the canvas and lay a little bit of this color right on top of the dark. 81 00:05:08,991 --> 00:05:09,991 There. 82 00:05:11,134 --> 00:05:14,676 Just push it off the fan brush. 83 00:05:16,572 --> 00:05:21,776 There we go. 84 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:27,971 Let some little things happen in some of these clouds. 85 00:05:28,610 --> 00:05:34,689 Now, this one will be highlighted on the bottom since the light source is below it. 86 00:05:34,739 --> 00:05:39,081 Don't let that little rascal fool you. 87 00:05:40,608 --> 00:05:43,826 And we'll put some light down here. 88 00:05:43,876 --> 00:05:49,536 And maybe there's just a little trickle hitting up on top of this cloud somewhere. 89 00:05:49,586 --> 00:05:53,928 Just here and there, little tiny bits. 90 00:05:54,374 --> 00:05:59,113 And then we have this big dark one that's hiding way up here. 91 00:05:59,163 --> 00:06:04,282 So we'll put some little highlights on him too. 92 00:06:04,332 --> 00:06:12,332 Don't want this one as bright, because he's farther away from the light source. 93 00:06:15,044 --> 00:06:16,758 Now, let's see. 94 00:06:17,407 --> 00:06:19,659 You can with a big brush. 95 00:06:19,709 --> 00:06:24,424 All we're gonna do is just gently wipe across this, and watch what happens. 96 00:06:24,474 --> 00:06:27,788 Just bring all this together. 97 00:06:30,461 --> 00:06:31,832 There we go. 98 00:06:32,443 --> 00:06:33,895 Look at them son of a guns. 99 00:06:33,945 --> 00:06:35,517 Isn't that something? 100 00:06:35,567 --> 00:06:40,595 And you can fluff them up, move them around. 101 00:06:40,762 --> 00:06:43,636 But you must have a paint that's very firm, it's underneath. 102 00:06:43,686 --> 00:06:49,744 If you're using a thin, oily paint, you become a mud mixer. 103 00:06:49,794 --> 00:06:53,775 Okie dokie. 104 00:06:53,799 --> 00:06:58,556 And, nice, simple, very effective little sky. 105 00:06:58,606 --> 00:06:59,958 So, let's move right along here. 106 00:07:00,008 --> 00:07:02,784 We'll take a little bit of 107 00:07:02,834 --> 00:07:09,536 Titanium white with the least, least little touch of cad yellow in it. 108 00:07:09,586 --> 00:07:10,758 Very, very small amount. 109 00:07:10,808 --> 00:07:13,422 And figure out where your water line's gonna be here. 110 00:07:13,472 --> 00:07:14,490 And maybe right about here. 111 00:07:14,514 --> 00:07:18,812 We'll just begin by touching the canvas. 112 00:07:18,862 --> 00:07:20,119 Just touch. 113 00:07:20,264 --> 00:07:23,700 Allow the paint to be pulled off onto the canvas. 114 00:07:23,750 --> 00:07:27,726 And start under the sun and work outwards so 115 00:07:27,750 --> 00:07:31,750 automatically it gets darker as it goes out. 116 00:07:34,289 --> 00:07:36,803 And this line needs to be pretty straight. 117 00:07:36,853 --> 00:07:40,909 If it's got crooks and bumps in it, it'll sort of bother you. 118 00:07:40,959 --> 00:07:43,954 We'll lay a little color right here. 119 00:07:44,004 --> 00:07:50,861 Little bit of the light's just reflecting through the water. 120 00:07:51,796 --> 00:07:53,167 There we go. 121 00:07:55,501 --> 00:07:58,929 Just let it play and have fun. 122 00:08:00,918 --> 00:08:03,491 Okay, now we need the big brush. 123 00:08:03,541 --> 00:08:07,016 And very gently, we're just gonna blend right across this. 124 00:08:07,066 --> 00:08:09,123 Bring it together. 125 00:08:10,270 --> 00:08:11,641 There we go. 126 00:08:17,278 --> 00:08:18,278 Okay. 127 00:08:19,661 --> 00:08:22,403 Clean up our brush here. 128 00:08:24,788 --> 00:08:25,839 That is fun. 129 00:08:25,889 --> 00:08:30,078 That's better than arguing with your spouse. 130 00:08:30,128 --> 00:08:31,319 Take the almighty fan brush. 131 00:08:31,369 --> 00:08:35,023 I'm gonna put a little tiny bit of magic white with it. 132 00:08:35,073 --> 00:08:36,071 Tiniest little bit. 133 00:08:36,095 --> 00:08:43,866 Okay now, we're gonna begin making some little wave actions in here. 134 00:08:44,124 --> 00:08:49,660 So just touch, and every once in a while give it a little push so it bends upward. 135 00:08:49,710 --> 00:08:51,652 Tiny little push. 136 00:08:52,193 --> 00:08:55,813 You want it to bend upward though. 137 00:08:55,863 --> 00:08:58,075 And see how it picks up the crimson that's underneath? 138 00:08:58,125 --> 00:09:00,363 Makes all those pretty little things happen automatically. 139 00:09:00,387 --> 00:09:06,709 You don't have to worry about them. 140 00:09:06,733 --> 00:09:08,104 There we go. 141 00:09:11,778 --> 00:09:18,749 Just let it get darker and darker toward the edges over here. 142 00:09:19,706 --> 00:09:23,647 And we're beginning to see some little things happen, so 143 00:09:23,671 --> 00:09:27,706 begin to put a little more detail in some of these waves. 144 00:09:28,668 --> 00:09:36,668 And you can see now it's beginning to pick up the blue that's underneath there. 145 00:09:37,155 --> 00:09:41,383 And a super way to make little waves. 146 00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:45,878 Well, if we're gonna make a California, Oregon type seascape 147 00:09:45,902 --> 00:09:49,799 here, let's start putting some little rocks in the water. 148 00:09:50,487 --> 00:09:52,278 Maybe way back here. 149 00:09:52,328 --> 00:09:54,880 There's a little stone out here in the water. 150 00:09:54,930 --> 00:10:01,473 Or it's really a big stone that's far away, but it looks small, perspective. 151 00:10:01,523 --> 00:10:04,444 And let's highlight this with some burnt umber 152 00:10:04,468 --> 00:10:07,221 and the least little touch of yellow in it. 153 00:10:07,271 --> 00:10:11,842 Very, very small amount of yellow in it. 154 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,182 There we go. 155 00:10:17,206 --> 00:10:19,606 Just barely touch it. 156 00:10:19,710 --> 00:10:22,567 Just let the paint break. 157 00:10:24,677 --> 00:10:27,351 And now then, we can splash some water upon that rock. 158 00:10:27,401 --> 00:10:29,688 We'll take the fan brush again, 159 00:10:29,738 --> 00:10:32,933 Little bit of the magic white with it to thin it. 160 00:10:32,983 --> 00:10:36,714 And we'll just begin bringing some water right up here and let it 161 00:10:36,738 --> 00:10:40,725 hit and splash and have fun and sort of give it a little pull upward. 162 00:10:40,775 --> 00:10:44,821 Okay. 163 00:10:46,243 --> 00:10:49,679 Let's have another little rock in there. 164 00:10:49,729 --> 00:10:53,304 Maybe he comes right along here. 165 00:10:53,354 --> 00:10:54,496 Like that. 166 00:10:58,865 --> 00:11:00,236 There we go. 167 00:11:00,547 --> 00:11:05,465 This is just Van Dyke Brown with a little bit of Burnt Umber in it. 168 00:11:05,515 --> 00:11:06,452 Okay. 169 00:11:06,476 --> 00:11:08,469 And we'll lay some highlights on that one. 170 00:11:08,519 --> 00:11:09,776 Same color. 171 00:11:10,442 --> 00:11:14,197 Burnt Umber with a little bit of yellow. 172 00:11:14,247 --> 00:11:18,449 Just here and there. 173 00:11:18,473 --> 00:11:19,891 And maybe this one's a little bigger. 174 00:11:19,915 --> 00:11:25,494 Maybe I'll knit, maybe there's a little grass that grows out there. 175 00:11:25,544 --> 00:11:27,416 I'm gonna have some vegetation on these rocks. 176 00:11:27,466 --> 00:11:29,308 They're quite large. 177 00:11:29,358 --> 00:11:32,938 So we'll make a little sap green, yellow, 178 00:11:32,962 --> 00:11:36,917 and a little tiny bit of permanent red in it. 179 00:11:36,967 --> 00:11:38,459 Just to dull it down a little. 180 00:11:38,509 --> 00:11:44,947 And then just pop some little grassy things out here on this. 181 00:11:44,997 --> 00:11:47,276 There. 182 00:11:47,300 --> 00:11:48,412 Don't want them too bright. 183 00:11:48,462 --> 00:11:49,299 Don't want them too bright. 184 00:11:49,323 --> 00:11:53,618 Be careful they don't get so bright you can't stand them. 185 00:11:53,668 --> 00:11:56,525 Wanna keep it quite dark. 186 00:12:00,745 --> 00:12:03,219 I've got behind me my brush cleaner. 187 00:12:03,269 --> 00:12:07,135 Now, I'll take a little Van Dyke brown and a burnt umber, just mixed on 188 00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:11,269 the fan brush here, and let's put a few little trees back here on this one. 189 00:12:12,081 --> 00:12:14,194 All we're gonna do is just touch. 190 00:12:14,244 --> 00:12:16,737 All we're looking for is silhouettes. 191 00:12:16,787 --> 00:12:20,022 So just touch here and there. 192 00:12:20,072 --> 00:12:21,284 There we go. 193 00:12:21,334 --> 00:12:24,328 Just a few little happy things. 194 00:12:24,378 --> 00:12:26,818 And I'll use a liner brush 195 00:12:26,868 --> 00:12:29,844 with a little bit of thin oil in it. 196 00:12:29,894 --> 00:12:32,650 And just turn that brush until it gets real sharp. 197 00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:33,732 There we go. 198 00:12:33,782 --> 00:12:37,380 And we'll put a few little trunks on those trees. 199 00:12:37,430 --> 00:12:40,687 Now these may be quite hard for you to see, but they are here. 200 00:12:40,737 --> 00:12:42,241 And when you do your painting at home, you'll 201 00:12:42,265 --> 00:12:43,759 want to have all this little detail in here. 202 00:12:43,783 --> 00:12:47,781 It really makes a painting stand out. 203 00:12:47,831 --> 00:12:48,831 Okay. 204 00:12:50,307 --> 00:12:53,301 Now, let's highlight those little trees. 205 00:12:53,351 --> 00:12:54,269 Just a tiny bit. 206 00:12:54,293 --> 00:12:57,487 We'll use a little bit of ochre with permanent red. 207 00:12:57,537 --> 00:13:02,174 Yellow ochre with a little touch of permanent red in it. 208 00:13:02,224 --> 00:13:04,598 And just highlight them, just a little. 209 00:13:04,648 --> 00:13:07,276 Just so they stand out. 210 00:13:09,034 --> 00:13:11,588 And these trees have quite flat tops on. 211 00:13:11,638 --> 00:13:12,638 There. 212 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,411 That's good. 213 00:13:15,704 --> 00:13:18,658 A little bit more of the wave action here. 214 00:13:18,708 --> 00:13:21,450 Just touch, let it bend. 215 00:13:23,399 --> 00:13:25,632 Push it up that mountain. 216 00:13:25,682 --> 00:13:27,494 And let it spin up here. 217 00:13:27,544 --> 00:13:29,715 Right up the rocks. 218 00:13:34,954 --> 00:13:39,049 Maybe there's another wave right here. 219 00:13:39,099 --> 00:13:40,877 Make little stories up when you're doing this. 220 00:13:40,901 --> 00:13:41,638 Little sounds. 221 00:13:41,662 --> 00:13:42,954 Think you're at the ocean. 222 00:13:43,004 --> 00:13:47,219 Think how it sounds, how the wave feels, the wind blowing in your face. 223 00:13:47,269 --> 00:13:52,446 All these things help put you in the mood to do paintings like these. 224 00:13:52,496 --> 00:13:53,867 There we go. 225 00:13:54,922 --> 00:13:58,517 Just let these little waves happen. 226 00:13:58,567 --> 00:14:03,481 Don't let them get too bright on you again. 227 00:14:04,395 --> 00:14:05,395 Okay. 228 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,836 Let's make a bigger stone, same color, Van Dyke brown, burnt umber. 229 00:14:11,886 --> 00:14:16,686 And maybe this one comes way up like this. 230 00:14:17,254 --> 00:14:24,568 And maybe we're up above looking down off one of the big cliffs. 231 00:14:28,385 --> 00:14:29,476 Let's really go crazy. 232 00:14:29,526 --> 00:14:33,068 Let's put one out here like so. 233 00:14:35,954 --> 00:14:37,285 And just let him wander on down. 234 00:14:37,335 --> 00:14:39,377 There. 235 00:14:43,162 --> 00:14:51,162 I'm just filling all this in with the Van Dyke brown and a little bit of burnt umber. 236 00:14:55,336 --> 00:14:56,336 Okay. 237 00:14:57,730 --> 00:15:01,618 This painting's a little different than things we've done in the 238 00:15:01,642 --> 00:15:05,370 past, but it gives you a whole new bunch of ideas to go with. 239 00:15:05,420 --> 00:15:08,034 Always look for new ways to do this. 240 00:15:08,084 --> 00:15:12,061 All we want to do here is give you the basic 241 00:15:12,085 --> 00:15:15,904 technique and turn you loose on the world. 242 00:15:15,954 --> 00:15:21,832 But always believe in yourself, believe in your ability and what you can do. 243 00:15:21,882 --> 00:15:26,756 There we go, all that's covered now in just brown. 244 00:15:26,806 --> 00:15:31,606 Let's put a few little highlights in here. 245 00:15:31,674 --> 00:15:39,674 This is Burnt Umber with Yellow and a little touch of Permanent Red in it. 246 00:15:40,908 --> 00:15:43,863 And let's turn this into some almighty big stones here. 247 00:15:43,913 --> 00:15:46,767 Just let that paint run down there and break. 248 00:15:46,817 --> 00:15:52,616 That's what I mean by breaking is when the paint has all the holes and stuff in it. 249 00:15:52,666 --> 00:15:56,780 Just let it come down here and play. 250 00:16:00,961 --> 00:16:04,961 Look at all those things happening. 251 00:16:08,628 --> 00:16:12,823 Okay, right here maybe a little light striking. 252 00:16:12,873 --> 00:16:16,301 And it's playing through here. 253 00:16:19,739 --> 00:16:23,853 Mix up just a touch more color here. 254 00:16:24,083 --> 00:16:27,968 Little bit of permanent red in it. 255 00:16:29,108 --> 00:16:34,136 Little bit of light on this stone over here. 256 00:16:34,998 --> 00:16:35,998 There we go. 257 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,125 So let these things happen. 258 00:16:41,469 --> 00:16:42,469 Okay. 259 00:16:43,052 --> 00:16:46,568 Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe there's a little light right there. 260 00:16:46,618 --> 00:16:50,134 Maybe there's a little, there, look at that. 261 00:16:50,184 --> 00:16:51,669 Look at that. 262 00:16:52,568 --> 00:16:54,168 You can do it. 263 00:16:58,619 --> 00:17:00,482 Alright. 264 00:17:01,593 --> 00:17:05,702 Let's take a little crimson and a little bit of Van Dyke brown 265 00:17:05,726 --> 00:17:09,593 and let's put some pretty little bushes and stuff up here. 266 00:17:10,844 --> 00:17:14,478 Maybe there's a little plant that lives right here. 267 00:17:14,528 --> 00:17:17,261 Now the trees that live here really catch the devil. 268 00:17:17,311 --> 00:17:20,285 Oh, the wind beats on them all the time. 269 00:17:20,335 --> 00:17:22,708 So they're scrawny little trees. 270 00:17:22,758 --> 00:17:24,290 Oh, they've been hurt. 271 00:17:24,340 --> 00:17:25,277 Looky there. 272 00:17:25,301 --> 00:17:27,701 Flatten the tops out. 273 00:17:30,027 --> 00:17:35,103 Maybe there's one back in here that grows on the ground too. 274 00:17:35,153 --> 00:17:36,153 There. 275 00:17:39,437 --> 00:17:41,494 And maybe up here. 276 00:17:43,742 --> 00:17:48,427 I have a big tall one up here in the sky. 277 00:17:49,549 --> 00:17:50,549 Okay. 278 00:17:51,531 --> 00:17:58,682 Let's see, we'll take a little bit of yellow, a little bit of magic white, 279 00:17:58,732 --> 00:18:02,708 Permanent red, and then we'll go right into the 280 00:18:02,732 --> 00:18:06,732 burnt umber to make a dark reddish brown color. 281 00:18:08,533 --> 00:18:11,509 And with that, I'm gonna start highlighting some of these. 282 00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:14,301 Gently touch the canvas. 283 00:18:14,665 --> 00:18:15,665 There. 284 00:18:16,870 --> 00:18:24,070 Ooh, look at all those pretty colors that happen automatically. 285 00:18:26,255 --> 00:18:29,569 Okay, maybe this one up here. 286 00:18:32,801 --> 00:18:36,001 Don't let it get too bright. 287 00:18:40,008 --> 00:18:43,887 Go all the way to the top. 288 00:18:43,911 --> 00:18:47,665 Remember where your light's coming from. 289 00:18:47,715 --> 00:18:51,829 You want those sides to be brighter. 290 00:18:54,561 --> 00:18:55,932 There we go. 291 00:19:00,899 --> 00:19:03,641 A little bit right here. 292 00:19:05,205 --> 00:19:06,690 There we are. 293 00:19:09,430 --> 00:19:12,971 There we go, now then. 294 00:19:12,995 --> 00:19:17,337 Let's take, wash out a fan brush here. 295 00:19:19,103 --> 00:19:22,597 And we'll begin putting some trunks on these trees. 296 00:19:22,647 --> 00:19:28,490 And I'm gonna use a Van Dyke Brown, Burnt Umber, very dark. 297 00:19:28,540 --> 00:19:32,480 And with a fan brush, using it sideways, all we do here 298 00:19:32,504 --> 00:19:36,540 is touch and gently begin pulling in our general shapes. 299 00:19:42,241 --> 00:19:44,641 Isn't that something? 300 00:19:44,925 --> 00:19:48,020 Okay, put a little down here. 301 00:19:48,070 --> 00:19:50,355 Maybe it comes down. 302 00:19:51,195 --> 00:19:54,150 Oh, poor old tree, poor old tree. 303 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,857 Rough life, they're all bent up. 304 00:19:58,105 --> 00:20:03,384 Maybe we can see a little bit of a stem back in here. 305 00:20:03,434 --> 00:20:04,686 Now I'll take a lighter color. 306 00:20:04,736 --> 00:20:10,221 This is some of the umber and yellow I had left. 307 00:20:11,487 --> 00:20:14,115 And highlight one side. 308 00:20:17,376 --> 00:20:18,949 Pull it down like so. 309 00:20:18,999 --> 00:20:21,970 Just follow the curvature. 310 00:20:22,204 --> 00:20:26,546 Just follow the curvature of the tree. 311 00:20:30,438 --> 00:20:34,216 Now very gently take the brush and begin working 312 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,438 that over so it gives a round appearance to the tree. 313 00:20:42,235 --> 00:20:44,969 Just barely touch it and pull it. 314 00:20:45,019 --> 00:20:46,390 There we go. 315 00:20:47,263 --> 00:20:52,646 Okay. 316 00:20:52,670 --> 00:20:53,808 Now let's come right down here. 317 00:20:53,832 --> 00:20:57,146 I'm gonna use some sap green. 318 00:20:58,079 --> 00:21:00,613 And a little bit of yellow and permanent red. 319 00:21:00,663 --> 00:21:03,011 And we'll just make some little grassy areas 320 00:21:03,035 --> 00:21:05,461 all around in here, just using the fan brush. 321 00:21:05,511 --> 00:21:06,511 Let it bounce and play. 322 00:21:06,553 --> 00:21:09,714 You're gonna pick up the dark color that's underneath, and 323 00:21:09,738 --> 00:21:12,813 automatically this is gonna get darker in value for you. 324 00:21:12,863 --> 00:21:16,291 Let it happen, don't fight it. 325 00:21:16,449 --> 00:21:19,044 Let all these little things happen. 326 00:21:19,094 --> 00:21:21,151 Learn to use them. 327 00:21:26,007 --> 00:21:30,342 Maybe there's grass and stuff that comes right down here. 328 00:21:30,392 --> 00:21:33,605 Remember, this is your world. 329 00:21:33,655 --> 00:21:36,740 You make all the decisions. 330 00:21:39,641 --> 00:21:40,641 There. 331 00:21:44,566 --> 00:21:46,051 Look at that. 332 00:21:49,371 --> 00:21:51,085 Let's see here. 333 00:21:54,931 --> 00:21:58,702 Let's clean this up a little bit. 334 00:21:59,798 --> 00:22:00,798 Like so. 335 00:22:02,662 --> 00:22:05,396 Then we'll put a happy little bush in the 336 00:22:05,420 --> 00:22:08,379 front of the tree, so it sits down in there. 337 00:22:08,429 --> 00:22:12,571 There we go. 338 00:22:12,595 --> 00:22:16,438 Now we'll highlight those little bushes, and I'll use some 339 00:22:16,462 --> 00:22:20,595 permanent red, a little touch of yellow, and some magic white. 340 00:22:24,597 --> 00:22:28,112 Put a little permanent red in there. 341 00:22:28,162 --> 00:22:31,318 Still don't want it to get bright, so I'll add just 342 00:22:31,342 --> 00:22:34,460 a touch of this umber color to it to dull it down. 343 00:22:34,510 --> 00:22:36,224 And just touch. 344 00:22:37,534 --> 00:22:42,671 Don't let it smear, touch, bend the bristles, get away from it. 345 00:22:42,721 --> 00:22:47,958 Maybe there's a happy little bush lives right here. 346 00:22:48,008 --> 00:22:52,023 And wherever you want a little bush, just drop one in. 347 00:22:52,073 --> 00:22:53,444 There we go. 348 00:22:54,770 --> 00:22:59,748 Now we can take the knife, cut in a few little sticks here and there. 349 00:22:59,798 --> 00:23:05,262 Just make that stone come down a little sharper. 350 00:23:05,286 --> 00:23:06,657 There we go. 351 00:23:06,989 --> 00:23:08,441 Just a few little touches. 352 00:23:08,491 --> 00:23:11,065 Now at home you have unlimited time. 353 00:23:11,115 --> 00:23:15,452 You can play with this, put in tremendous detail. 354 00:23:15,502 --> 00:23:18,765 Here we're sort of limited, so we have to just try 355 00:23:18,789 --> 00:23:22,142 to give you an idea and let you take it from there. 356 00:23:22,192 --> 00:23:25,049 Put your dream on canvas. 357 00:23:25,263 --> 00:23:31,341 Take a little more of the grass color here and brighten up this little corner. 358 00:23:31,391 --> 00:23:35,207 But it's absolutely unreal what can be done on these black canvases. 359 00:23:35,257 --> 00:23:38,792 All the colors that we put underneath here were transparent colors, 360 00:23:38,816 --> 00:23:42,056 so it still looks black until you begin applying color to it. 361 00:23:42,106 --> 00:23:46,026 Once you begin applying color, then the base colors that you put on the 362 00:23:46,050 --> 00:23:50,106 transparent colors begin picking up and showing all the beautiful detail. 363 00:23:51,659 --> 00:23:52,659 Okay. 364 00:23:53,748 --> 00:23:55,943 So we could put a few more little details 365 00:23:55,967 --> 00:23:58,403 here and there if you wanted to very quickly. 366 00:23:58,453 --> 00:24:03,569 You know, maybe there's a little tree right over here on the dark side. 367 00:24:03,619 --> 00:24:06,849 Things like, yes, this is the kind of things you can do at 368 00:24:06,873 --> 00:24:10,296 home where you have all this dear time and you can just play. 369 00:24:10,346 --> 00:24:13,088 Ooh, that is a nice one. 370 00:24:14,871 --> 00:24:15,871 Okay. 371 00:24:16,492 --> 00:24:20,834 And we can highlight him a little bit. 372 00:24:21,157 --> 00:24:22,757 Just a little. 373 00:24:26,317 --> 00:24:31,002 Okay, now I think I'm starting to piddle. 374 00:24:31,326 --> 00:24:35,803 You know, one of the hardest things in the world is to figure out when to stop. 375 00:24:35,853 --> 00:24:39,450 So I think I'm about ready to stop. 376 00:24:39,500 --> 00:24:43,476 Okay, we'll take the liner brush, put a small amount 377 00:24:43,500 --> 00:24:47,500 of a thin oil on it, bring it to a nice sharp point. 378 00:24:51,460 --> 00:24:53,813 And turn that brush when you're doing that. 379 00:24:53,863 --> 00:24:54,500 Turn it. 380 00:24:54,524 --> 00:24:57,878 People seem to have such difficulty signing the painting. 381 00:24:57,928 --> 00:24:58,928 Turn it. 382 00:24:59,711 --> 00:25:02,453 And we'll sign this one. 383 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:10,074 Support us and become VIP member to remove all ads from www.OpenSubtitles.org 384 00:25:13,689 --> 00:25:15,060 There we go. 385 00:25:18,528 --> 00:25:21,001 Once again, it's nice to have a very short name. 386 00:25:21,051 --> 00:25:26,729 I can sign these paintings on the air for you so you can see them being signed. 387 00:25:26,779 --> 00:25:28,674 Well, I think this painting is finished, and 388 00:25:28,698 --> 00:25:30,574 I'm gonna start piddling with it right now. 389 00:25:30,624 --> 00:25:33,873 Next week, have a white canvas ready, and we'll 390 00:25:33,897 --> 00:25:36,822 do a fantastic scene using a white canvas. 391 00:25:36,872 --> 00:25:38,404 I sincerely hope you've enjoyed this. 392 00:25:38,454 --> 00:25:40,886 Once again, it is something a little bit 393 00:25:40,910 --> 00:25:43,611 different, but it does stir the imagination. 394 00:25:43,661 --> 00:25:47,402 So, with that, we'll bring this show to a close. 395 00:25:47,452 --> 00:25:49,986 We wish each and every one of you happy painting. 396 00:25:50,036 --> 00:25:58,036 God bless. 397 00:25:59,305 --> 00:26:59,527
