"The Joy of Painting" Mountain Waterfall

1 00:00:01,583 --> 00:00:03,777 Hello, here we are again, ready to go. 2 00:00:03,827 --> 00:00:06,921 Hope you have easels set up and your almighty palette ready. 3 00:00:06,971 --> 00:00:09,345 We'll paint a fantastic little picture together. 4 00:00:09,395 --> 00:00:11,262 I'm gonna have them quickly run across the screen 5 00:00:11,286 --> 00:00:13,409 here, all the colors that we have on the palette, so if 6 00:00:13,433 --> 00:00:15,569 you haven't caught those in one of the previous shows, 7 00:00:15,593 --> 00:00:17,513 you can pick up all the colors that we're using. 8 00:00:18,830 --> 00:00:21,545 I thought today we'd do a very quick, happy little waterfall. 9 00:00:21,595 --> 00:00:25,553 Last week, if you were with us, we did a waterfall that was way off in the distance. 10 00:00:25,603 --> 00:00:28,418 This time I think we'll do one that's a little bit closer. 11 00:00:28,468 --> 00:00:32,501 So I'm gonna start today with a little tiny bit of phthalo 12 00:00:32,525 --> 00:00:36,092 blue, and I'll mix a little van dyke brown with it. 13 00:00:36,142 --> 00:00:40,441 And we'll just throw in a quick little sky here. 14 00:00:40,491 --> 00:00:43,233 Something about like so. 15 00:00:45,847 --> 00:00:49,126 While I have the blue on the brush, I'll go right into a 16 00:00:49,150 --> 00:00:52,806 little bit of phthalo green, and we'll put some water in here. 17 00:00:52,856 --> 00:00:54,341 There we are. 18 00:00:55,460 --> 00:01:01,288 Just to give us some nice little water indications. 19 00:01:01,788 --> 00:01:02,788 Okay. 20 00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:05,443 Now, let's wash the brush real quick. 21 00:01:05,493 --> 00:01:08,121 We'll move right along. 22 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,152 Okay, now we're going to a tiny bit of alizarin crimson. 23 00:01:13,202 --> 00:01:14,420 Let's just warm this up a little. 24 00:01:14,444 --> 00:01:18,517 We'll put just a tiny bit of crimson right here. 25 00:01:18,567 --> 00:01:19,778 A little crimson. 26 00:01:19,828 --> 00:01:22,721 We don't want to set this guy on fire. 27 00:01:22,771 --> 00:01:24,302 Just want to give it a nice warm glow. 28 00:01:24,352 --> 00:01:27,552 A little bit into the water. 29 00:01:29,877 --> 00:01:30,877 There. 30 00:01:31,238 --> 00:01:33,791 Now let's bring all this together. 31 00:01:33,841 --> 00:01:37,394 Just using little crisscross strokes back and forth. 32 00:01:37,444 --> 00:01:40,986 Sort of like you're making X's. 33 00:01:44,858 --> 00:01:52,743 Just very gently bring that together so it's nice and evenly blended. 34 00:01:54,489 --> 00:01:55,489 Okay. 35 00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:58,649 Let's take and put a, let's put a little mountain way in the background. 36 00:01:58,673 --> 00:02:04,850 I use a little bit of Prussian blue, Van Dyke brown, touch of crimson. 37 00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:12,419 We'll have a little mountain that's way back in the distance back here. 38 00:02:12,469 --> 00:02:14,526 Something like so. 39 00:02:16,583 --> 00:02:19,325 Just a little small one. 40 00:02:19,427 --> 00:02:23,279 Now with a large brush, I'm just gonna take and 41 00:02:23,303 --> 00:02:27,427 pull that down, so it blends it out on the bottom. 42 00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:29,897 There we are. 43 00:02:29,921 --> 00:02:37,921 I just want this mountain to literally just disappear right at the bottom there. 44 00:02:38,472 --> 00:02:42,499 Okay, I'll take a little bit of white, and I'm gonna put the least, least little 45 00:02:42,523 --> 00:02:46,472 amount of permanent red in it, just to put a little warm glow on the mountain. 46 00:02:47,633 --> 00:02:52,318 Of permanent red, it's very, very strong. 47 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:59,117 Okay, let's run a little highlight right down through here. 48 00:02:59,167 --> 00:03:02,501 Don't want these to be too bright, I want them to be far away. 49 00:03:02,551 --> 00:03:03,693 Very soft. 50 00:03:05,334 --> 00:03:11,391 Maybe just a little highlight striking right in here. 51 00:03:12,403 --> 00:03:15,374 And right down this ridge. 52 00:03:17,536 --> 00:03:23,515 For the shadow side, we'll take a little Prussian blue and white. 53 00:03:23,565 --> 00:03:24,936 There we go. 54 00:03:25,468 --> 00:03:30,953 And just drop some happy little shadows in here. 55 00:03:36,886 --> 00:03:42,604 And we'll just let this one wander around and play here a little. 56 00:03:42,654 --> 00:03:47,810 Let your heart take you wherever you want to go. 57 00:03:47,860 --> 00:03:52,217 Maybe there's another little peak right there. 58 00:03:52,267 --> 00:03:56,198 Each highlight needs its own private shadow, 59 00:03:56,222 --> 00:04:00,267 so just give him a shadow so he stands apart. 60 00:04:04,104 --> 00:04:07,778 Okay, with a clean, dry brush now, I'm just gonna 61 00:04:07,802 --> 00:04:11,425 tap the bottom of this just to create some mist. 62 00:04:11,475 --> 00:04:17,646 Over here we'll follow these angles, then lift upward. 63 00:04:17,780 --> 00:04:23,151 I want this one to be very soft, very far away. 64 00:04:23,208 --> 00:04:27,347 Okay, now let's take a little bit of Prussian Blue, 65 00:04:27,371 --> 00:04:31,208 Van Dyke Brown, a little tiny bit of Sap Green. 66 00:04:31,821 --> 00:04:35,716 We just mix it on the brush, put a little white with it. 67 00:04:35,766 --> 00:04:39,001 Let's make a happy little foothill that comes running down here. 68 00:04:39,051 --> 00:04:40,422 There he is. 69 00:04:42,857 --> 00:04:47,771 Just let him wander down here and have fun. 70 00:04:50,112 --> 00:04:52,825 All we're doing is tapping the canvas. 71 00:04:52,875 --> 00:04:55,949 Now you can take and lift gently upward to make it look like little trees. 72 00:04:55,999 --> 00:05:00,861 Wee, wee, wee, back in the distance there. 73 00:05:00,885 --> 00:05:02,370 There we are. 74 00:05:05,670 --> 00:05:06,698 Now then. 75 00:05:07,613 --> 00:05:08,864 Maybe, let's do another one. 76 00:05:08,914 --> 00:05:10,406 That was a lot of fun. 77 00:05:10,456 --> 00:05:13,610 We'll take some blue and brown, sap green again. 78 00:05:13,660 --> 00:05:17,755 This one we want to be a little bit darker because it's closer. 79 00:05:17,805 --> 00:05:23,747 And we'll just have one run right down through here. 80 00:05:26,950 --> 00:05:29,568 It creates a lot of depth in your painting. 81 00:05:29,618 --> 00:05:37,618 And we can just take the bottom of it and pull down and create our reflections. 82 00:05:37,924 --> 00:05:43,752 Gently lift upward, make it look like little trees. 83 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:51,074 Watch Online Movies and Series for FREE www.osdb.link/lm 84 00:05:54,507 --> 00:05:59,164 Just make all kinds of little projections back here. 85 00:05:59,214 --> 00:06:05,714 Now, very gently, I'm gonna just wipe across to turn it into reflections. 86 00:06:05,764 --> 00:06:13,764 Okay, we'll take a little bit of magic white and make a little water line here. 87 00:06:14,157 --> 00:06:15,549 This is just straight magic white. 88 00:06:15,599 --> 00:06:20,636 Remember our golden rule here, a thin paint will stick to a thick paint. 89 00:06:20,686 --> 00:06:26,628 So this is very thin, so it'll stick right on there. 90 00:06:30,164 --> 00:06:35,992 Okay, let's dull that one a little bit, too bright. 91 00:06:36,553 --> 00:06:40,210 And a little bit right out here. 92 00:06:41,340 --> 00:06:45,367 Now, we could take a fan brush using the same dark colors, blue, brown, a little 93 00:06:45,391 --> 00:06:49,340 sap green, and we could just drop a few little indications of trees back here. 94 00:06:51,714 --> 00:06:54,708 Maybe these are a little closer. 95 00:06:54,758 --> 00:06:56,243 Just like so. 96 00:06:58,203 --> 00:07:02,317 Don't wanna get too much detail yet, 97 00:07:05,112 --> 00:07:08,648 Let's darken this one up, it's closer. 98 00:07:08,698 --> 00:07:10,617 Then, with just a little tiny bit of yellow 99 00:07:10,641 --> 00:07:12,719 on the brush here, I'm just gonna put a little 100 00:07:12,743 --> 00:07:14,719 highlight so it looks like this is beginning 101 00:07:14,743 --> 00:07:16,698 to get close enough that we can see things. 102 00:07:19,455 --> 00:07:23,226 Just here and there, very little. 103 00:07:26,647 --> 00:07:32,450 Okay, that gives us a nice background for a little waterfall. 104 00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:36,711 Let's take the large brush, put some Prussian 105 00:07:36,735 --> 00:07:40,500 blue on it, and a little Van Dyke brown. 106 00:07:40,892 --> 00:07:44,167 And here we need to figure out where the waterfall's gonna be. 107 00:07:44,217 --> 00:07:46,577 You have to make almighty decisions when you're the creator. 108 00:07:46,601 --> 00:07:49,535 And let's just say it's right here. 109 00:07:49,585 --> 00:07:51,017 Pull straight down. 110 00:07:51,067 --> 00:07:56,766 All we're doing is applying some dark so our light color will show on top. 111 00:07:56,816 --> 00:08:00,701 And let's throw some down in here. 112 00:08:05,693 --> 00:08:11,750 Okay, clean the brush, and we'll be ready to go here. 113 00:08:16,243 --> 00:08:20,386 And we'll use the fan brush and take a little tiny 114 00:08:20,410 --> 00:08:24,243 bit of the magic white and add two firm white. 115 00:08:25,952 --> 00:08:30,486 Thin paint will stick to a thick paint, so I've thinned it just a little bit here. 116 00:08:30,536 --> 00:08:34,398 And we'll put some little ripples in the water. 117 00:08:34,448 --> 00:08:36,962 Just touch the canvas. 118 00:08:40,075 --> 00:08:46,834 Now, to make the waterfall, pull the brush straight and let it fall. 119 00:08:46,884 --> 00:08:50,328 That's all there is to it. 120 00:08:50,528 --> 00:08:52,371 Straight, fall. 121 00:08:53,872 --> 00:08:58,125 And it'll pay you to wipe the brush in between because 122 00:08:58,149 --> 00:09:01,872 you're gonna pick up a little bit of that blue. 123 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,874 Just pull it over, let it fall. 124 00:09:06,924 --> 00:09:10,137 That's why they call them waterfalls. 125 00:09:10,187 --> 00:09:11,199 Okay, let's go over here. 126 00:09:11,249 --> 00:09:14,677 Pull it over, and let it fall. 127 00:09:16,434 --> 00:09:18,605 Over, and it falls. 128 00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:25,694 Wipe some of that blue off the brush, and over, and fall. 129 00:09:25,744 --> 00:09:29,259 And that's how easy it is to make a little waterfall. 130 00:09:29,309 --> 00:09:33,211 Now, with a little more of the magic, a little more titanium white, we can begin 131 00:09:33,235 --> 00:09:35,099 letting it hit and splash and have all 132 00:09:35,123 --> 00:09:37,309 kinds of little fun things happen down here. 133 00:09:42,253 --> 00:09:47,372 Okay, now, we need to determine what's gonna contain this water. 134 00:09:47,422 --> 00:09:52,496 So let's take Van Dyke brown, just straight Van Dyke brown. 135 00:09:52,546 --> 00:09:56,002 And we'll begin building some little cliffs and rocks. 136 00:09:56,052 --> 00:09:57,250 Something's gotta contain this. 137 00:09:57,274 --> 00:10:00,611 Be sure your rocks are higher than the waterfall. 138 00:10:00,661 --> 00:10:05,379 One thing that you have to remember, water is probably the laziest thing in nature. 139 00:10:05,429 --> 00:10:09,226 It will not climb a rock just so it can fall and be pretty for you. 140 00:10:09,276 --> 00:10:13,233 It'd be nice if it would, but it won't do it. 141 00:10:13,283 --> 00:10:20,368 Alright, let's just fill this in with a lot of Van Dyke brown. 142 00:10:20,693 --> 00:10:24,410 And over here, let's come right along like this. 143 00:10:24,460 --> 00:10:28,917 Let this big old stone just play there. 144 00:10:34,036 --> 00:10:35,750 A lot of paint. 145 00:10:39,305 --> 00:10:40,790 Just like so. 146 00:10:51,237 --> 00:10:55,075 On top, so I'll take a little burnt umber, mix it with a 147 00:10:55,099 --> 00:10:59,237 van dyke brown, maybe just a little touch of yellow into it. 148 00:11:02,511 --> 00:11:03,882 There we go. 149 00:11:06,937 --> 00:11:10,879 Now, I want to try to make this look flat on top, so this, 150 00:11:10,903 --> 00:11:14,937 when it comes across, needs to be like so, to keep it flat. 151 00:11:16,068 --> 00:11:17,439 Across here. 152 00:11:21,005 --> 00:11:22,719 Just let it go. 153 00:11:28,832 --> 00:11:33,517 Let's see, Van Dyke, burnt umber, yellow. 154 00:11:36,338 --> 00:11:38,791 Let's have this one just sort of come around. 155 00:11:38,841 --> 00:11:43,625 There. 156 00:11:43,705 --> 00:11:44,705 Okay. 157 00:11:45,466 --> 00:11:46,848 Now, angles. 158 00:11:47,849 --> 00:11:49,480 Most important thing here. 159 00:11:49,530 --> 00:11:52,272 Bring these angles down. 160 00:11:53,506 --> 00:11:56,523 A little bit of light color, just a tiny, tiny bit. 161 00:11:56,573 --> 00:12:00,335 Probably the biggest mistake made is putting too much 162 00:12:00,359 --> 00:12:04,573 highlight under here, and you lose that beautiful darkness. 163 00:12:05,331 --> 00:12:11,502 Just enough to create a little illusion of rocks here. 164 00:12:14,515 --> 00:12:18,172 Okay, little tiny bit over here. 165 00:12:18,661 --> 00:12:26,661 And you can do this like so every once in a while, just to break it up a little. 166 00:12:28,595 --> 00:12:30,080 There we are. 167 00:12:31,479 --> 00:12:34,907 Angles though, most important. 168 00:12:36,666 --> 00:12:38,719 Now let's play with the water a little. 169 00:12:38,769 --> 00:12:44,597 Maybe it comes up in here and splashes and has fun. 170 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,572 Little more of the magic white. 171 00:12:46,622 --> 00:12:54,622 Be sure your paint's a little bit thinner than what's on the canvas already. 172 00:12:54,894 --> 00:12:56,706 I'm having so much fun with rocks. 173 00:12:56,756 --> 00:13:02,394 I think I'll build another little happy stone that comes right out through here. 174 00:13:02,444 --> 00:13:05,872 Just using the Van Dyke brown. 175 00:13:10,956 --> 00:13:14,709 And a little bit of our highlight color. 176 00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:17,959 Just let that work and play. 177 00:13:20,325 --> 00:13:22,725 Little pull downward. 178 00:13:25,311 --> 00:13:28,264 Okay, let's take a little bit of the water over here. 179 00:13:28,314 --> 00:13:34,641 And I'm going crazy with stones today. 180 00:13:35,141 --> 00:13:37,935 Let's just bring something down like that. 181 00:13:37,985 --> 00:13:43,699 Maybe there's a big stone right here in the front. 182 00:13:44,155 --> 00:13:47,990 Remember, this is your world, so anywhere 183 00:13:48,014 --> 00:13:52,155 you want a stone, that's where it should be. 184 00:13:52,783 --> 00:13:53,760 There we go. 185 00:13:53,784 --> 00:13:56,641 We just fill all that in. 186 00:13:59,389 --> 00:14:04,064 Creates a lot of depth by having all these different planes in the painting. 187 00:14:04,114 --> 00:14:07,987 And let's put a little bit of highlight out here on this happy little stone. 188 00:14:08,037 --> 00:14:12,557 Just let that knife barely, barely touch. 189 00:14:12,607 --> 00:14:17,064 Barely touch, almost touch as a canvas. 190 00:14:19,675 --> 00:14:25,151 And we can just begin creating all kinds of almighty stones and rocks. 191 00:14:25,201 --> 00:14:29,736 Okay, now, let's build some happy little things here. 192 00:14:29,786 --> 00:14:32,920 Use some Van Dyke brown, some burnt umber mixed together. 193 00:14:32,970 --> 00:14:35,723 Little bit of sap green in it. 194 00:14:35,773 --> 00:14:41,126 And let's just put right over here, just a happy little tree. 195 00:14:41,176 --> 00:14:44,490 Sittin' up here on this rock. 196 00:14:49,292 --> 00:14:52,379 Like that. 197 00:14:52,860 --> 00:14:57,078 Maybe over here, oh, there's an almighty tree. 198 00:14:57,128 --> 00:15:05,128 That's where these big brushes really work beautiful, when you wanna make big things. 199 00:15:15,702 --> 00:15:18,616 And you have to make decisions here. 200 00:15:18,666 --> 00:15:19,484 Where does it go? 201 00:15:19,508 --> 00:15:22,562 Where's the bottom of this tree? 202 00:15:22,612 --> 00:15:27,449 Let's just let it run right on down here and we'll decide that later. 203 00:15:27,499 --> 00:15:28,499 Okay. 204 00:15:28,681 --> 00:15:33,878 Let's put a few little limb indications back here. 205 00:15:33,928 --> 00:15:36,213 Just here and there. 206 00:15:36,933 --> 00:15:38,075 Like that. 207 00:15:39,256 --> 00:15:43,462 And we'll highlight it with a little brown and white. 208 00:15:43,512 --> 00:15:51,512 Least little touch of blue, just to put a little highlight on there. 209 00:15:52,663 --> 00:15:57,198 Okay, now we'll take some magic white to thin the paint a little bit. 210 00:15:57,248 --> 00:16:04,562 We'll go into a little bit of yellow, a little bit of sap green. 211 00:16:05,158 --> 00:16:06,970 Yellow and sap green. 212 00:16:07,020 --> 00:16:08,913 A lot of paint on the bristles. 213 00:16:08,963 --> 00:16:12,572 And let's put some happy little leaves back in here. 214 00:16:12,622 --> 00:16:18,738 Just let these little leaves just fall off your brush. 215 00:16:18,788 --> 00:16:24,209 All kinds of little things happening. 216 00:16:24,233 --> 00:16:27,926 And go out sometime in the woods and study trees. 217 00:16:27,976 --> 00:16:30,749 Talk to trees, whatever it takes. 218 00:16:30,799 --> 00:16:36,855 Tree needs to be your friend if you're gonna paint him. 219 00:16:36,905 --> 00:16:41,019 Probably out in your yard you have some beautiful trees that you can look at. 220 00:16:41,069 --> 00:16:44,128 Study what happens in the tree. 221 00:16:44,178 --> 00:16:48,063 What makes each one an individual. 222 00:16:48,384 --> 00:16:49,869 Study nature. 223 00:16:54,071 --> 00:16:57,606 I really have some hangups about nature being destroyed. 224 00:16:57,656 --> 00:17:01,872 I would like to see nature remain the way it is. 225 00:17:01,922 --> 00:17:05,808 I would like for my son's grandchildren, maybe, when he goes back 226 00:17:05,832 --> 00:17:09,922 to Alaska, to be able to see a real moose, not just pictures of one. 227 00:17:10,773 --> 00:17:13,858 So appreciate what we have. 228 00:17:14,384 --> 00:17:17,839 Let's put a big old tree trunk right up through here. 229 00:17:17,889 --> 00:17:22,117 This is just straight Van Dyke brown. 230 00:17:23,757 --> 00:17:31,757 There we go. 231 00:17:32,889 --> 00:17:36,774 Okay, just fill that in real nice. 232 00:17:38,056 --> 00:17:43,393 And maybe there's a limb that just travels right up through this way. 233 00:17:43,443 --> 00:17:51,411 Your tree, so you put limbs where you want them. 234 00:17:51,435 --> 00:17:55,617 Okay, let's take a little bit of the titanium white 235 00:17:55,641 --> 00:17:59,435 with just a touch of umber in it, burnt umber. 236 00:18:03,372 --> 00:18:06,246 And let's just put some bark on like yesterday. 237 00:18:06,296 --> 00:18:09,724 Touch it, pull it to the side. 238 00:18:14,324 --> 00:18:17,981 Let it run right on up the tree. 239 00:18:19,653 --> 00:18:20,851 Okay. 240 00:18:20,875 --> 00:18:24,189 Now, back to the magic white. 241 00:18:24,861 --> 00:18:26,694 Little magic white. 242 00:18:26,744 --> 00:18:28,115 Some yellow. 243 00:18:29,609 --> 00:18:31,762 And I want a darker color on this tree. 244 00:18:31,812 --> 00:18:34,988 So I'm gonna use a lot of sap green on it. 245 00:18:35,038 --> 00:18:36,980 Lot of sap green. 246 00:18:37,742 --> 00:18:43,012 Want him to be darker than the one that's behind him. 247 00:18:43,062 --> 00:18:49,576 And we can throw some happy little leaves right out here. 248 00:18:50,113 --> 00:18:55,827 By being darker, they stand apart a little better. 249 00:18:55,882 --> 00:18:58,662 There we go. 250 00:18:58,686 --> 00:19:02,722 Now, let's make a happy little bush right out in here. 251 00:19:02,772 --> 00:19:10,772 Let's put some little brighter colors on him, so he stands out and shines. 252 00:19:14,095 --> 00:19:18,113 And on down here at the bottom, there's all kind 253 00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:22,095 of little things growing out here on the stone. 254 00:19:24,668 --> 00:19:32,668 Okay, maybe this one right here covers up half the tree's foots. 255 00:19:34,059 --> 00:19:35,812 This is a very nice little painting. 256 00:19:35,862 --> 00:19:39,716 It's a lot of fun to do, and it'll teach you a great deal. 257 00:19:39,766 --> 00:19:42,800 It's a good practice painting. 258 00:19:42,850 --> 00:19:50,850 It's also good for putting a happy buck in your pocket once in a while. 259 00:19:50,903 --> 00:19:51,500 There. 260 00:19:51,524 --> 00:19:54,699 Maybe a little grassy thing over in there somewhere. 261 00:19:54,749 --> 00:19:58,785 And you can also use the fan brush if you'd like. 262 00:19:58,835 --> 00:20:03,112 And just bring all this together very gently. 263 00:20:03,162 --> 00:20:07,859 Maybe right out here there's a little weed that grows almost on the other side. 264 00:20:07,909 --> 00:20:08,909 Okay. 265 00:20:12,263 --> 00:20:15,490 With a palette knife, just a clean knife, 266 00:20:15,514 --> 00:20:19,082 scrape a few little trunks and limbs in here. 267 00:20:19,132 --> 00:20:22,534 One of the important things when you're doing this is don't kill all this 268 00:20:22,558 --> 00:20:26,172 dark here, you really need it, otherwise your painting will become very flat. 269 00:20:26,222 --> 00:20:28,279 You need the dark. 270 00:20:30,607 --> 00:20:34,835 It's the only way you can have light. 271 00:20:37,817 --> 00:20:38,817 Okay. 272 00:20:40,495 --> 00:20:41,894 Let's go over here to the other side. 273 00:20:41,918 --> 00:20:45,876 I think that tree needs a little trunk. 274 00:20:45,926 --> 00:20:50,497 Just touch, touch, touch Van Dyke brown. 275 00:20:53,901 --> 00:20:56,236 Little bit of highlight on it. 276 00:20:56,286 --> 00:20:59,028 This is brown and white. 277 00:21:00,293 --> 00:21:05,664 Just enough to give it some little indications. 278 00:21:11,427 --> 00:21:12,940 Now, let's highlight that tree. 279 00:21:12,990 --> 00:21:15,390 A little magic white. 280 00:21:15,995 --> 00:21:20,699 A little yellow and sap green. 281 00:21:20,723 --> 00:21:22,208 There we are. 282 00:21:23,147 --> 00:21:30,804 And, let's just put some pretty little leaves out here on this one. 283 00:21:35,708 --> 00:21:38,917 And down here at the tree's bottom, 284 00:21:38,967 --> 00:21:40,599 Let's put a nice little bush right here. 285 00:21:40,649 --> 00:21:42,742 This is yellow ochre. 286 00:21:42,792 --> 00:21:44,620 Beautiful color. 287 00:21:46,476 --> 00:21:50,191 Maybe there's a little bush trying to live down here on this stone. 288 00:21:50,241 --> 00:21:53,595 Life can get rough down there. 289 00:21:53,645 --> 00:21:54,602 Okay. 290 00:21:54,626 --> 00:21:59,062 A few little sticks and twigs here and there. 291 00:21:59,112 --> 00:22:01,265 But you're beginning to see now how really very 292 00:22:01,289 --> 00:22:03,327 simple it is to do a happy little waterfall. 293 00:22:03,377 --> 00:22:05,548 It's no big secret. 294 00:22:07,302 --> 00:22:09,427 It's quite easy to do. 295 00:22:09,477 --> 00:22:14,652 I'm just throwing a few little sticks here and there. 296 00:22:14,702 --> 00:22:18,116 Okay, now we can take the fan brush. 297 00:22:18,166 --> 00:22:20,899 Little bit of magic white on it. 298 00:22:20,949 --> 00:22:23,181 Little bit of firm white. 299 00:22:23,231 --> 00:22:25,804 And now we can begin bringing the water all up through here. 300 00:22:25,854 --> 00:22:29,267 Just touch, bend the brush so it bends upward. 301 00:22:29,317 --> 00:22:32,296 And pew, once again, pew. 302 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,733 It makes it look like water's dripping down. 303 00:22:34,783 --> 00:22:37,115 But you pull it upward. 304 00:22:37,165 --> 00:22:41,622 And do it in a real fast little motion. 305 00:22:42,063 --> 00:22:48,543 Water's just going right on out, little bubbly stream out from here. 306 00:22:48,593 --> 00:22:49,593 Okay. 307 00:22:51,857 --> 00:22:53,841 Now another thing that you can do, just to make it 308 00:22:53,865 --> 00:22:55,913 look a little more finished, anytime you have these 309 00:22:55,937 --> 00:22:57,853 big cliffs with little things growing on it, you 310 00:22:57,877 --> 00:22:59,857 always have a lot of little roots that hang over. 311 00:23:02,132 --> 00:23:09,148 Just take your fan brush with a little tiny bit of color on it and pull, like so. 312 00:23:09,198 --> 00:23:10,470 Just pull it. 313 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,475 Makes it look like little roots hanging over. 314 00:23:13,525 --> 00:23:15,925 Isn't that something? 315 00:23:15,968 --> 00:23:16,968 There. 316 00:23:18,392 --> 00:23:20,677 Just here and there. 317 00:23:23,660 --> 00:23:26,631 Now, grab a fan brush off. 318 00:23:26,925 --> 00:23:32,537 Maybe we'll take the liner brush, a little Van Dyke brown, 319 00:23:32,587 --> 00:23:36,683 And we'll put a couple little stems and stuff up through here. 320 00:23:36,733 --> 00:23:42,151 Maybe there's a little limb that comes right up through here like so. 321 00:23:42,201 --> 00:23:43,774 This is just a thin oil. 322 00:23:43,824 --> 00:23:47,980 Just about any type of oil will work. 323 00:23:48,030 --> 00:23:49,448 Just thins the paint down a little bit. 324 00:23:49,472 --> 00:23:51,906 You may thin it with paint thinner if you desire. 325 00:23:51,956 --> 00:23:56,893 Be careful because paint thinner will bleed like ink on rice paper. 326 00:23:56,943 --> 00:23:59,914 Be very careful with that. 327 00:24:00,346 --> 00:24:04,803 The oil is slick, it moves much easier. 328 00:24:06,874 --> 00:24:09,347 And we'll have a limb coming right across the front. 329 00:24:09,397 --> 00:24:11,218 When you're doing little trees and stuff, one 330 00:24:11,242 --> 00:24:13,251 thing to avoid, don't have a trunk and then limbs 331 00:24:13,275 --> 00:24:15,394 coming just off each side, because some of the limbs 332 00:24:15,418 --> 00:24:17,397 are in front of the trunk, some are in the back. 333 00:24:19,729 --> 00:24:22,586 So have them come across. 334 00:24:22,693 --> 00:24:24,064 There we go. 335 00:24:24,675 --> 00:24:28,848 And just give this a little something right there. 336 00:24:28,898 --> 00:24:34,373 A few little sticks and twigs, just little finishing touches. 337 00:24:34,423 --> 00:24:37,296 And I think I'm beginning to piddle right now. 338 00:24:37,346 --> 00:24:40,459 So I'm gonna take a little bit of the oil, a little Permanent Red. 339 00:24:40,509 --> 00:24:46,344 I think it's time we signed this one and called it finished. 340 00:24:46,394 --> 00:24:47,394 Okay. 341 00:24:47,515 --> 00:24:49,187 Work your oil in there to your paint. 342 00:24:49,237 --> 00:24:50,708 It's just like water. 343 00:24:50,758 --> 00:24:55,233 And turn the brush to bring it back to a nice sharp point. 344 00:24:55,283 --> 00:24:59,283 Okay, let's go right along in here. 345 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,985 And when you have this oil very thin like 346 00:25:05,009 --> 00:25:08,699 this, it's just about like writing with a pen. 347 00:25:08,749 --> 00:25:11,977 Another way you can sign your name is just take the back of 348 00:25:12,001 --> 00:25:15,308 your liner brush and you can scrape right through the paint. 349 00:25:15,358 --> 00:25:18,672 Your signature will be there. 350 00:25:19,423 --> 00:25:20,423 Okay. 351 00:25:20,645 --> 00:25:23,739 I think we just about have a finished painting here. 352 00:25:23,789 --> 00:25:27,708 Now this is a very, very fun little painting to do. 353 00:25:27,758 --> 00:25:31,075 It teaches you a great deal, and I hope it helps you. 354 00:25:31,125 --> 00:25:34,221 If you've enjoyed this, you know, let your PBS station know. 355 00:25:34,271 --> 00:25:36,405 That's the only way we know what you like. 356 00:25:36,455 --> 00:25:38,509 Let us hear from you once in a while. 357 00:25:38,559 --> 00:25:42,051 So on behalf of all of us here at this station, we'd like to wish you 358 00:25:42,075 --> 00:25:45,743 happy painting, and we're looking forward to seeing you again next week. 359 00:25:45,793 --> 00:25:49,107 Until then, have a super day. 360 00:25:50,305 --> 00:26:50,543
