"The Joy of Painting" Black Waterfall

1 00:00:01,786 --> 00:00:02,837 Welcome back. 2 00:00:02,887 --> 00:00:06,229 Thought today we'd do a black canvas that has maybe a happy little 3 00:00:06,253 --> 00:00:09,466 waterfall and a bubbling little stream running down through it. 4 00:00:09,516 --> 00:00:12,710 Now I went ahead and prepared the canvas to save a little bit of time. 5 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,853 If you're doing this at home, this is a black canvas that's 6 00:00:15,877 --> 00:00:18,677 painted with a flat black acrylic and allowed to dry. 7 00:00:18,727 --> 00:00:23,623 Then I've taken and made a circle here of alizarin crimson. 8 00:00:23,673 --> 00:00:26,126 The top is Prussian blue. 9 00:00:26,176 --> 00:00:28,621 And the bottom half of the canvas I've covered 10 00:00:28,645 --> 00:00:30,792 with a layer of blue and Van Dyke brown. 11 00:00:30,842 --> 00:00:32,775 Prussian blue and Van Dyke brown. 12 00:00:32,825 --> 00:00:34,857 And then just wiped it all together. 13 00:00:34,907 --> 00:00:37,461 So let's make some happy little clouds in the sky. 14 00:00:37,511 --> 00:00:42,006 I'm gonna start with a fan brush and a little bit of titanium white. 15 00:00:42,056 --> 00:00:44,113 Very small amount. 16 00:00:44,142 --> 00:00:46,935 And we'll begin building some happy little clouds here. 17 00:00:46,985 --> 00:00:50,158 Very little paint because it's gonna pick up the colors 18 00:00:50,182 --> 00:00:53,903 underneath and just make all kind of happy little things happen. 19 00:00:53,953 --> 00:00:55,245 There we go. 20 00:00:55,295 --> 00:00:58,528 Just let it bounce through the sky and play. 21 00:00:58,578 --> 00:01:01,011 See how it's picking up the blue? 22 00:01:01,061 --> 00:01:02,061 There. 23 00:01:03,664 --> 00:01:07,218 Okay, now, maybe there's another little cloud right here. 24 00:01:07,268 --> 00:01:15,268 Just let these clouds just float around wherever you think there should be one. 25 00:01:16,812 --> 00:01:20,027 And just let them feather back. 26 00:01:20,077 --> 00:01:24,053 Okay, now with a large brush, I'm gonna very 27 00:01:24,077 --> 00:01:28,077 gently blend the bottom of these clouds out. 28 00:01:28,430 --> 00:01:30,369 Okay. 29 00:01:30,393 --> 00:01:31,785 Now, we'll do this one. 30 00:01:31,835 --> 00:01:36,332 Just the bottom of the cloud, we don't wanna touch the top yet. 31 00:01:36,382 --> 00:01:40,358 And then we'll fluff it up a little bit. 32 00:01:40,408 --> 00:01:43,374 And then just gently blend it. 33 00:01:43,424 --> 00:01:46,357 Super nice little way to make clouds. 34 00:01:46,407 --> 00:01:49,481 Okay, we'll put a few more little clouds in here. 35 00:01:49,531 --> 00:01:52,684 Maybe, maybe there's one right here. 36 00:01:52,734 --> 00:01:54,586 Just floating around. 37 00:01:54,636 --> 00:01:56,388 Now these black canvases are so much fun. 38 00:01:56,438 --> 00:01:59,729 We've done quite a few of them on this series 39 00:01:59,753 --> 00:02:02,995 because we've had so many requests for them. 40 00:02:03,045 --> 00:02:04,416 There we go. 41 00:02:05,768 --> 00:02:09,653 Just let him float around the sky. 42 00:02:11,690 --> 00:02:14,523 Blend it out, not touching the top of the cloud. 43 00:02:14,573 --> 00:02:19,254 Just little circles, little tiny circles. 44 00:02:19,278 --> 00:02:22,135 Fluff it up a little bit. 45 00:02:22,622 --> 00:02:24,564 And blend it out. 46 00:02:29,229 --> 00:02:30,780 And you do these clouds in layers. 47 00:02:30,830 --> 00:02:35,645 Do the one that's farthest away first and work toward yourself. 48 00:02:35,695 --> 00:02:38,589 A little bit more of the titanium white. 49 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,099 And maybe there's a nice one here. 50 00:02:42,149 --> 00:02:45,744 Keep your brush moving, keep it moving at all times. 51 00:02:45,794 --> 00:02:50,249 You don't want to end up with great big cotton balls up in the sky. 52 00:02:50,299 --> 00:02:51,299 There. 53 00:02:54,064 --> 00:02:55,435 There we go. 54 00:02:57,448 --> 00:03:03,386 And with a large brush, we'll just blend that out, not touching the top edge. 55 00:03:03,436 --> 00:03:07,235 And here it's beginning to touch the crimson, so we're 56 00:03:07,259 --> 00:03:11,436 getting a difference in values now, a difference in colors. 57 00:03:18,059 --> 00:03:20,832 Maybe one more little cloud. 58 00:03:20,882 --> 00:03:24,196 Little fluffy one right here. 59 00:03:27,010 --> 00:03:28,010 Okay. 60 00:03:29,713 --> 00:03:31,705 There we are, that gives us a nice little cloud. 61 00:03:31,755 --> 00:03:35,516 We'll blend the bottom of it out. 62 00:03:35,540 --> 00:03:36,540 Okay. 63 00:03:39,224 --> 00:03:41,281 Then blend it out. 64 00:03:43,287 --> 00:03:46,421 Super simple, nice little way to make clouds. 65 00:03:46,471 --> 00:03:50,345 And the black canvas works fantastic. 66 00:03:50,395 --> 00:03:53,480 Now I'll clean the brushes. 67 00:03:56,702 --> 00:04:00,062 Okay. 68 00:04:00,086 --> 00:04:01,297 There we go. 69 00:04:01,347 --> 00:04:04,621 Now let's make some little evergreens back in the distance here. 70 00:04:04,671 --> 00:04:08,974 And for that, I'll take some Van Dyke brown, alizarin 71 00:04:08,998 --> 00:04:12,671 crimson, and a little touch of Prussian blue. 72 00:04:14,337 --> 00:04:19,775 We're looking for a color that looks black here, very, very dark. 73 00:04:19,825 --> 00:04:23,981 Load a lot of paint into the fan brush, just load it full. 74 00:04:24,031 --> 00:04:25,031 There. 75 00:04:25,293 --> 00:04:29,088 And we'll just make little indications of trees way back here in the distance. 76 00:04:29,138 --> 00:04:32,909 Touch the canvas and go downward. 77 00:04:33,565 --> 00:04:36,765 Just so we have silhouettes. 78 00:04:37,891 --> 00:04:39,262 There we go. 79 00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:46,316 This is a nice way to make a lot of little tree indications very rapidly. 80 00:04:46,366 --> 00:04:48,994 Save you a lot of time. 81 00:04:53,917 --> 00:04:57,973 And we can put a little detail here and there on some of them. 82 00:04:58,023 --> 00:05:00,957 Maybe they're a little larger. 83 00:05:01,007 --> 00:05:05,578 But mostly just looking for indications. 84 00:05:08,607 --> 00:05:13,292 Okay, just come right down the hill here. 85 00:05:14,094 --> 00:05:21,964 Just like so. 86 00:05:22,024 --> 00:05:27,380 Okay, now maybe over here there's a nice one, bigger one. 87 00:05:27,430 --> 00:05:30,630 Some little ones beside him. 88 00:05:31,435 --> 00:05:36,312 This is your world, so let your imagination go crazy. 89 00:05:36,362 --> 00:05:41,847 Whatever makes you happy, you put in your world. 90 00:05:44,129 --> 00:05:49,505 Just about get a nice indication of a tree line back here now. 91 00:05:49,555 --> 00:05:50,926 There we go. 92 00:05:54,461 --> 00:05:57,539 And maybe, maybe here and there, you wanna put 93 00:05:57,563 --> 00:06:00,598 a little more detail in a few of these trees. 94 00:06:00,648 --> 00:06:06,885 And that'll indicate they're a little bit closer to you. 95 00:06:06,935 --> 00:06:07,935 Okay. 96 00:06:11,961 --> 00:06:16,989 And here I'm just putting a little color on, 97 00:06:22,891 --> 00:06:25,690 Okay, now, now let's start and make a little 98 00:06:25,714 --> 00:06:28,666 tiny waterfall that's far off in the distance. 99 00:06:28,716 --> 00:06:32,566 I've added a very, very slight amount of magic 100 00:06:32,590 --> 00:06:36,716 white to the paint, just to thin it a little bit. 101 00:06:37,124 --> 00:06:39,179 And maybe my waterfall will be here and we'll 102 00:06:39,203 --> 00:06:41,097 have a babbling little brook coming down. 103 00:06:41,147 --> 00:06:46,922 So let's start right about here and go across and let it fall. 104 00:06:46,972 --> 00:06:48,964 Just across and down. 105 00:06:49,014 --> 00:06:53,807 Try to do that in one stroke so the lines come all the way down. 106 00:06:53,857 --> 00:06:58,252 And then we'll begin putting some little foamy things where it's hitting here. 107 00:06:58,302 --> 00:07:01,616 Let it begin working forward. 108 00:07:02,327 --> 00:07:03,698 There we go. 109 00:07:04,870 --> 00:07:10,147 Just all these happy little things happening in here. 110 00:07:10,197 --> 00:07:11,197 Okay. 111 00:07:11,418 --> 00:07:15,504 And once again, I have a very small, small amount 112 00:07:15,528 --> 00:07:19,218 of magic white mixed with my titanium white. 113 00:07:19,268 --> 00:07:23,268 Just to make it a tiny bit thinner. 114 00:07:25,058 --> 00:07:26,886 You know, when you have a babbling little 115 00:07:26,910 --> 00:07:29,034 brook running down through here, a lot of times 116 00:07:29,058 --> 00:07:30,989 you have little tiny stones under the water 117 00:07:31,013 --> 00:07:33,058 where the water will hit and bounce and play. 118 00:07:39,802 --> 00:07:43,784 There we go. 119 00:07:43,808 --> 00:07:48,165 You might not see that stone, but he's there. 120 00:07:48,215 --> 00:07:53,156 Just create some interesting little things in here. 121 00:07:53,206 --> 00:07:56,399 And the water hits and plays and bounces around. 122 00:07:56,449 --> 00:08:01,706 Maybe there's another little stone right here. 123 00:08:03,816 --> 00:08:05,327 Look at that son of a gun. 124 00:08:05,377 --> 00:08:05,913 Isn't that fun? 125 00:08:05,937 --> 00:08:10,016 I sincerely hope you're painting along with us today because 126 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,937 this is a fun picture, and it teaches you so many things. 127 00:08:16,347 --> 00:08:20,280 Oh, maybe there's another one right there. 128 00:08:20,330 --> 00:08:27,072 Just let your imagination take you wherever you want to go. 129 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:35,074 Watch Online Movies and Series for FREE www.osdb.link/lm 130 00:08:36,085 --> 00:08:40,128 I'm gonna go back into my dark color here and put a few trees 131 00:08:40,152 --> 00:08:44,085 that are a little bit closer sitting down here on the hill. 132 00:08:45,536 --> 00:08:47,021 There we are. 133 00:08:53,004 --> 00:08:54,004 Okay. 134 00:08:54,546 --> 00:09:02,546 Now let's take a little bit of cad yellow and sap green mixed together. 135 00:09:04,638 --> 00:09:07,807 Maybe we'll put a tiny, tiny bit of ochre in 136 00:09:07,831 --> 00:09:10,878 it too, just to dull it down a little bit. 137 00:09:10,928 --> 00:09:12,140 There we go. 138 00:09:12,190 --> 00:09:15,446 And let's have some grassy little areas coming down through here. 139 00:09:15,496 --> 00:09:19,753 Just touch, push, make the fan brush bend upward. 140 00:09:19,803 --> 00:09:24,942 I want to create the illusion of a hill coming down. 141 00:09:24,992 --> 00:09:26,991 There we go. 142 00:09:27,015 --> 00:09:31,015 Don't let it get too bright on you. 143 00:09:35,654 --> 00:09:40,616 All kind of little grassy things happening. 144 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,606 And maybe back here, maybe, I'll tell you what, let's put 145 00:09:44,630 --> 00:09:48,619 a nice cliff back here in front of this little waterfall. 146 00:09:48,669 --> 00:09:53,224 That'll push everything back quite a bit. 147 00:09:53,274 --> 00:09:55,788 Like so, there we are. 148 00:09:58,020 --> 00:10:01,996 And I'm gonna take just the tiniest amount of burnt umber 149 00:10:02,020 --> 00:10:06,020 and just put a little highlight up here, just a tiny bit. 150 00:10:09,826 --> 00:10:13,100 And angles are very important when you're doing rocks. 151 00:10:13,150 --> 00:10:15,092 Watch the angles. 152 00:10:19,098 --> 00:10:19,715 There. 153 00:10:19,739 --> 00:10:24,115 Now that sort of pushes the waterfall back a little bit further. 154 00:10:24,165 --> 00:10:30,162 Creates a little more distance, a little more depth in the painting. 155 00:10:30,212 --> 00:10:34,448 And then we can put some happy little things going right up the side here. 156 00:10:34,498 --> 00:10:39,526 And just let them fade right out to nothing. 157 00:10:49,246 --> 00:10:53,321 And maybe with a little bit of Van Dyke brown, we'll put a few 158 00:10:53,345 --> 00:10:57,246 little stones and some banks and stuff right along in here. 159 00:11:01,566 --> 00:11:06,249 Just wherever you want them. 160 00:11:06,273 --> 00:11:13,815 And I'm gonna highlight those with burnt umber, just a little bit. 161 00:11:16,752 --> 00:11:20,435 Okay, then we'll go back to our little 162 00:11:20,459 --> 00:11:24,752 grassy color here and bring it all together. 163 00:11:29,413 --> 00:11:30,413 Okay. 164 00:11:31,377 --> 00:11:34,051 Now, let's come over on this side of the canvas. 165 00:11:34,101 --> 00:11:35,854 And I'll use a one-inch brush. 166 00:11:35,904 --> 00:11:38,038 I'll be a little bit faster. 167 00:11:38,088 --> 00:11:43,652 And we'll take some Van Dyke brown, a little crimson, tiny bit of blue, 168 00:11:43,702 --> 00:11:46,676 And we'll put some happy little things happening over here. 169 00:11:46,726 --> 00:11:48,578 And begin closing this little waterfall in. 170 00:11:48,628 --> 00:11:53,393 There. 171 00:11:58,619 --> 00:11:59,619 Okay. 172 00:12:00,121 --> 00:12:01,573 Bend that brush. 173 00:12:01,623 --> 00:12:03,337 Really push it. 174 00:12:09,913 --> 00:12:11,055 Okay, now. 175 00:12:12,237 --> 00:12:16,146 Use a little tiny bit of magic white on the one inch brush, 176 00:12:16,170 --> 00:12:20,237 and we'll go into some cad yellow, and back to the sap green. 177 00:12:23,411 --> 00:12:28,047 Little bit of ochre added to it, just to dull it down. 178 00:12:28,097 --> 00:12:32,539 Don't want it to get too bright on us. 179 00:12:32,563 --> 00:12:36,513 See, I bet you never imagined you could paint a waterfall like this, and if 180 00:12:36,537 --> 00:12:40,563 you're painting along with us, you have a pretty good picture going already. 181 00:12:42,224 --> 00:12:43,396 There we go. 182 00:12:43,446 --> 00:12:49,160 Now, let's drop in another little bush right here. 183 00:12:51,176 --> 00:12:55,049 And I'll go back to the fan brush now and begin laying in 184 00:12:55,073 --> 00:12:59,176 some little grassy areas, just going right up the hill here. 185 00:13:05,635 --> 00:13:08,949 Make that brush bend upwards. 186 00:13:14,202 --> 00:13:20,701 Now with a little bit of the Van Dyke brown, we'll put some little banks in here. 187 00:13:20,751 --> 00:13:27,650 There we go, just let them protrude right out into the water. 188 00:13:27,700 --> 00:13:28,700 Alright. 189 00:13:30,784 --> 00:13:33,698 We're beginning to have a waterfall here. 190 00:13:33,748 --> 00:13:36,201 Bubbling little stream. 191 00:13:36,251 --> 00:13:38,484 Arn't these black canvases fun though? 192 00:13:38,534 --> 00:13:43,869 We have an absolute ball teaching you how to do these. 193 00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:51,804 Okay, little tiny bit of the burnt umber, just to highlight a little. 194 00:13:53,551 --> 00:14:01,093 Okay, now back to my fan brush, and we'll bring all this together. 195 00:14:07,708 --> 00:14:11,593 Let it get very dark back in here. 196 00:14:23,997 --> 00:14:31,997 Now, bring this together, and we'll be ready to play some more here in the water. 197 00:14:35,172 --> 00:14:37,451 Okay. 198 00:14:37,475 --> 00:14:41,645 Alrighty, let's get the old fan brush here, and finish 199 00:14:41,669 --> 00:14:45,475 up the stream, and then we can play a little bit. 200 00:14:46,207 --> 00:14:51,032 I think we have a few minutes here, and we can just have some fun. 201 00:14:51,082 --> 00:14:55,699 A little touch of the magic white, firm white, mixed together. 202 00:14:55,749 --> 00:14:59,206 And we can begin splashing water all up against 203 00:14:59,230 --> 00:15:02,489 the rocks and the stones and the banks here. 204 00:15:02,539 --> 00:15:06,695 Let it splash, maybe once in a while it runs up on there a little bit. 205 00:15:06,745 --> 00:15:10,727 There we go. 206 00:15:10,751 --> 00:15:14,106 There's another one of those little stones under the water. 207 00:15:14,156 --> 00:15:16,229 You knew it was there, didn't you? 208 00:15:16,279 --> 00:15:21,238 You just wanted to see if I'd remember and put it in. 209 00:15:21,288 --> 00:15:22,288 There. 210 00:15:27,337 --> 00:15:31,994 Look at all the actions happening in that water. 211 00:15:32,044 --> 00:15:36,044 That's what makes this so much fun. 212 00:15:39,275 --> 00:15:43,732 There he went again, right up the side. 213 00:15:48,136 --> 00:15:49,888 All the little actions in the water. 214 00:15:49,938 --> 00:15:53,732 Moving water is something we avoid so often and it's so much fun. 215 00:15:53,782 --> 00:15:54,940 But it's like everything else. 216 00:15:54,964 --> 00:15:58,718 It takes a little bit of practice. 217 00:15:58,768 --> 00:16:00,586 And turn your fan brush from one side to the other. 218 00:16:00,610 --> 00:16:03,964 You'll find that one side bends better than the other one does. 219 00:16:04,014 --> 00:16:06,227 And you'll have to experiment. 220 00:16:06,277 --> 00:16:09,230 Every single fan brush in the world has its own personality. 221 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,034 And you have to make friends with that little rascal. 222 00:16:13,084 --> 00:16:15,255 I'll tell you what. 223 00:16:16,115 --> 00:16:22,857 Let's put a happy little stone right out here in the water. 224 00:16:23,925 --> 00:16:24,421 Least one. 225 00:16:24,445 --> 00:16:27,799 If we have time, maybe we'll put a couple more in. 226 00:16:27,849 --> 00:16:31,784 That was Van Dyke brown, and now I go back to the umber. 227 00:16:31,834 --> 00:16:35,719 Put some little highlights on him. 228 00:16:37,241 --> 00:16:42,057 And we'll wrap some water right around that stone. 229 00:16:42,107 --> 00:16:46,449 Splash a little bit up here and there, 230 00:16:47,671 --> 00:16:50,071 Isn't that something? 231 00:16:56,759 --> 00:16:59,258 There. 232 00:16:59,282 --> 00:17:02,602 As I say, after all these years of painting, it 233 00:17:02,626 --> 00:17:05,898 still fascinates me that this works like this. 234 00:17:05,948 --> 00:17:10,290 Works for people who've never painted. 235 00:17:12,975 --> 00:17:17,203 We see it every day in the classroom. 236 00:17:18,518 --> 00:17:19,518 Okay. 237 00:17:20,862 --> 00:17:27,923 Let's take the knife now and just make a few little twigs and sticks here and there. 238 00:17:27,973 --> 00:17:32,931 All I'm doing is using a clean knife and scraping right through the paint. 239 00:17:32,981 --> 00:17:38,695 Makes it look like little twigs and little sticks. 240 00:17:41,722 --> 00:17:43,796 Well, you feeling brave today? 241 00:17:43,846 --> 00:17:44,783 Let's do some crazies. 242 00:17:44,807 --> 00:17:45,979 I think we have time here. 243 00:17:46,029 --> 00:17:49,064 I'm gonna take some Van Dyke brown on the knife. 244 00:17:49,114 --> 00:17:51,829 Get a lot of Van Dyke brown. 245 00:17:51,879 --> 00:17:59,193 And maybe, maybe there's a great big tree that lives right here. 246 00:17:59,752 --> 00:18:05,512 Maybe this old tree, maybe he's tired and maybe he's dead. 247 00:18:05,562 --> 00:18:07,760 Let's do a dead tree. 248 00:18:07,810 --> 00:18:12,185 He's fixing to fall over and make a natural bridge right across this little stream. 249 00:18:12,235 --> 00:18:19,294 And the water will play around him and have fun and just have a good time. 250 00:18:19,344 --> 00:18:23,346 You know, probably, to me, one of the nicest sounds in the world is listening 251 00:18:23,370 --> 00:18:27,344 to a little stream as it bubbles along, plays and hits the rocks and stones. 252 00:18:31,159 --> 00:18:33,318 In Alaska, I have a 253 00:18:33,342 --> 00:18:35,762 Have a great deal of fun going out in the woods 254 00:18:35,786 --> 00:18:38,439 and just sitting next to a stream and listen to it. 255 00:18:38,489 --> 00:18:41,032 Okay. 256 00:18:41,973 --> 00:18:45,505 And let's take, let's take a tiny bit of 257 00:18:45,529 --> 00:18:49,973 Permanent Red and some Burnt Umber mixed together. 258 00:18:53,368 --> 00:18:56,142 And we'll lay a little bit of highlight on this tree. 259 00:18:56,192 --> 00:19:00,192 Just enough to get it to stand out. 260 00:19:09,438 --> 00:19:11,111 Just here and there. 261 00:19:11,161 --> 00:19:15,961 Just where you think light will strike us. 262 00:19:18,172 --> 00:19:19,172 Okay. 263 00:19:20,216 --> 00:19:26,876 Now the other side, I'll use a little bit of Prussian blue. 264 00:19:26,926 --> 00:19:31,726 Just to indicate a little reflected light. 265 00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:36,675 Just a little bit. 266 00:19:36,725 --> 00:19:40,659 And all we're doing here is touching the canvas 267 00:19:40,683 --> 00:19:44,725 and allowing it to pull the paint off the knife. 268 00:19:45,094 --> 00:19:49,188 It's like taking the bus and leaving the driving to us. 269 00:19:49,238 --> 00:19:52,209 Let the knife do the work. 270 00:19:56,366 --> 00:19:57,884 And this is just a little Van Dyke brown. 271 00:19:57,908 --> 00:20:01,702 I'm just sort of bringing it all together now. 272 00:20:01,752 --> 00:20:05,261 To give it a nice bark appearance. 273 00:20:05,311 --> 00:20:12,282 All I'm doing is touching and pulling the knife straight out. 274 00:20:12,447 --> 00:20:20,447 And let's take the fan brush. 275 00:20:21,888 --> 00:20:26,287 And let's take a little bit of the Van Dyke brown. 276 00:20:26,337 --> 00:20:27,889 Little bit of umber mixed with it. 277 00:20:27,939 --> 00:20:29,572 Just mix it on the brush. 278 00:20:29,622 --> 00:20:32,239 And let's put a few, if this is a dead tree, let's 279 00:20:32,263 --> 00:20:34,639 put a few limbs hanging here and there on it. 280 00:20:34,689 --> 00:20:38,803 Just touch and let the fan brush go. 281 00:20:38,914 --> 00:20:41,542 Just touch straight on. 282 00:20:41,879 --> 00:20:46,695 Maybe there's a big old limb hangs way out like that. 283 00:20:46,745 --> 00:20:49,945 Make him a little bit wider. 284 00:20:50,571 --> 00:20:53,085 Gotta make him strong. 285 00:21:00,779 --> 00:21:04,114 Here's one right here, I see him. 286 00:21:04,164 --> 00:21:07,592 Maybe he sort of curls around. 287 00:21:10,612 --> 00:21:11,612 My cat. 288 00:21:17,562 --> 00:21:20,944 I think when I was a little boy, that's the size limb 289 00:21:20,968 --> 00:21:24,181 my mother used to get to punish me when I was bad. 290 00:21:24,231 --> 00:21:27,172 Actually, I was raised in Florida. 291 00:21:27,222 --> 00:21:30,016 My mother used to use palmettoes. 292 00:21:30,066 --> 00:21:35,283 And if she sees this, she's gonna kill me for telling you. 293 00:21:35,333 --> 00:21:39,448 But she knows that she's my favorite lady in the whole world. 294 00:21:39,498 --> 00:21:42,812 So I think she'll forgive me. 295 00:21:44,985 --> 00:21:47,745 There. 296 00:21:47,769 --> 00:21:49,061 Just a few little limbs here. 297 00:21:49,111 --> 00:21:50,403 Maybe there's one we can't see. 298 00:21:50,453 --> 00:21:53,367 It's on up here on the tree. 299 00:21:53,417 --> 00:21:58,256 Can't see where it starts, but it just sort of hangs down here. 300 00:21:58,306 --> 00:22:00,560 Give him a little arm. 301 00:22:00,610 --> 00:22:03,010 Now, clean the brush. 302 00:22:07,161 --> 00:22:13,922 And I'll take a little bit of the Permanent Red and Burnt Umber mixed together. 303 00:22:13,972 --> 00:22:15,343 There we go. 304 00:22:15,414 --> 00:22:17,588 And we'll highlight the limbs a little. 305 00:22:17,638 --> 00:22:18,895 Just touch. 306 00:22:20,202 --> 00:22:22,957 And follow your limb right on down. 307 00:22:23,007 --> 00:22:24,007 Like so. 308 00:22:26,926 --> 00:22:31,268 This burnt umber is a beautiful color. 309 00:22:36,946 --> 00:22:37,946 There. 310 00:22:41,635 --> 00:22:44,009 Okay, just highlight it a little bit. 311 00:22:44,059 --> 00:22:46,975 Just enough so it stands out a little. 312 00:22:47,025 --> 00:22:50,567 Doesn't have to be real bright. 313 00:22:56,288 --> 00:22:59,145 A little touch over here. 314 00:22:59,932 --> 00:23:01,074 All right. 315 00:23:05,077 --> 00:23:08,949 Now, just take a little tiny bit of the yellow and green 316 00:23:08,973 --> 00:23:13,077 and put some little grassy things around this tree's foots. 317 00:23:13,645 --> 00:23:17,339 Just to bring him into the painting a little better. 318 00:23:17,389 --> 00:23:19,120 Let him sit up here. 319 00:23:19,170 --> 00:23:24,588 And maybe we want to put a little tree on the other side too. 320 00:23:24,638 --> 00:23:31,557 Maybe there's just a tiny little tree way back here in the distance. 321 00:23:31,607 --> 00:23:32,978 There we go. 322 00:23:37,134 --> 00:23:41,819 Let's get brave, maybe there's two trees. 323 00:23:43,303 --> 00:23:51,003 And we'll take a little bit of white and mix it with a little bit of umber. 324 00:23:51,053 --> 00:23:53,286 And just touch, just to give some little indications. 325 00:23:53,336 --> 00:23:56,993 Don't want it to get too bright. 326 00:24:00,565 --> 00:24:04,759 And with the liner brush, let's open the oil here. 327 00:24:04,809 --> 00:24:07,922 Take a little bit of the thin oil. 328 00:24:07,972 --> 00:24:09,686 Van Dyke brown. 329 00:24:11,936 --> 00:24:14,008 And a little umber. 330 00:24:14,058 --> 00:24:15,155 Just mix it a little bit thin. 331 00:24:15,179 --> 00:24:19,273 We'll just put some little indications of limbs on here. 332 00:24:19,323 --> 00:24:25,164 Just here and there. 333 00:24:25,188 --> 00:24:26,188 Like so. 334 00:24:28,651 --> 00:24:30,936 Just here and there. 335 00:24:33,033 --> 00:24:36,528 Now, I'm gonna take a little of the magic white, a 336 00:24:36,552 --> 00:24:40,353 little yellow, little tiny bit of ochre mixed with it. 337 00:24:40,403 --> 00:24:43,076 Load a lot of paint into the bristles. 338 00:24:43,126 --> 00:24:49,305 And we'll just drop a few little leaf indications on there. 339 00:24:49,355 --> 00:24:51,640 Just here and there. 340 00:24:57,285 --> 00:25:01,407 There we go. 341 00:25:01,431 --> 00:25:03,408 I think we got him there. 342 00:25:03,458 --> 00:25:10,200 Okay, maybe a stick or two right here in front of the tree. 343 00:25:12,972 --> 00:25:16,387 I think we've about got this rascal finished. 344 00:25:16,437 --> 00:25:20,380 So, let me take a little bit of thin oil, a little permanent 345 00:25:20,404 --> 00:25:24,437 red, and we'll sign this almighty painting and call him done. 346 00:25:25,950 --> 00:25:32,109 Mix your paint until it's almost thin as water, then you can just write with it. 347 00:25:32,159 --> 00:25:34,444 Shoop, there we are. 348 00:25:35,757 --> 00:25:37,471 Just let it go. 349 00:25:39,183 --> 00:25:45,022 Next week, if you're painting along with us, we'll be doing a white canvas. 350 00:25:45,072 --> 00:25:48,614 So have your canvas ready, your almighty easel 351 00:25:48,638 --> 00:25:51,893 set up, and we'll be waiting for you here. 352 00:25:51,943 --> 00:25:57,512 Until then, from all of us here, happy painting. 353 00:25:58,305 --> 00:26:58,448 Watch
