wow,,absolutely wonderful, talented man, a great gift from Heaven,,thank you for sharing him for the good of the world 🌍,we can forget our problems while we watch Bill.

[@karenballard7470]

Many, many, years ago when I watched Bill on PBS (Bob Ross wasn't around then. He came later.). I hadn't painted for at least 20 years or more. Bill, with his wet on wet technique and large brushes was just what I needed to start me painting again. I've watched many painters over the years and have learn things from all of them, but Bill Alexander will always be first with me. He got me to pick up my brush and start painting again after avoiding it for 20 years or more. Thank you Bill where ever you are. I know you've been gone for quite awhile now, and have probably been teaching the angels how to fire in the almighty trees and other things with your big brush and fan brush. God bless you ❤🥰👍

[@shahrukhdetho]

Good luck happy to know that plz share your work .. would be so encouraging

[@arladicey]

Bob Ross' teacher, and an accomplished oil artist, who had his own PBS show before Bob. Both excellent artists. Bill did extraordinary skies and waves. It's easy to see where Bob got his inspiration. RIP to them both.

[@zlistcelebrityYT]

Bob was already a traditional painter. He only took on this technique as a way to get other people into painting by convincing them it wasn’t difficult (which traditional painting is), but Bill didn’t really teach him to paint.

[@rewired1108]

Bill Alexander is a true gem. Not only is his painting fantastic, but his teaching is of the highest calibre. One must add his phrases, "a poison colour," and we get addicted to his painting programmes.

[@johnperry5102]

WOW!!!!! what a painting, Bill out did himself on this one, he was a really true master of the brush

[@GustavoLovato]

As a pure artist, I prefer Bill Alexander over Bob Ross: it can plainly be seen that one was the teacher and the other, the student. Bill's seascapes are more vibrant and realistic than Bob's, and that carries through to his mountains, clouds, cabins, and trees. However, Bob was a more accessible teacher, explained the steps better, and had a voice just built for ASMR. I love them both.

[@AAlexanderArt]

Gustavo Lovato they both would have done better if they had more time.

[@AAlexanderArt]

Gustavo Lovato you are correct. Bill was born to be an artist and began his artistic career very early in his life. If you see his older work you will see that he was a classical artist. His focus on his television show was to inspire people to pick up a brush. It was never about showing people what a great artist he was. He knew what he could do but that is not what it was about.

[@shawnwarswick8898]

I've learned a lot from both. Both were great and are missed.

[@randykuhns4515]

@@seeburgm100a I'd like you to post them so we can see them,...

[@zlistcelebrityYT]

Bill taught Bob THIS technique that he used to bring more people into the world of painting, but Bob was already a traditional painter. However, the wet on wet technique was something he could use to fit into a short TV show time frame. His paintings were likely more realistic since Bob was painting a countless amount of paintings for the show. For every episode you saw, he painted each one three times. 1 to use as a reference painting that was off-camera during the show, 1 was the painting he would paint during filming, and another he’d paint step by step for photographs to put in his instructional books. This doesn’t even count all the paintings he was doing for classes and demonstrations. He literally painted until he couldn’t anymore. In fact the only season he truly freestyled was Season 2 because his reference paintings for that season were stolen.

[@cynthiathompson6818]

Bill is amazing!!!! He teaches so we can use his methods and paint anything we can imagine. He's a truly talented artist!!!!!

[@RandoPandaSmiles]

In season one of the joy of painting, Bob Ross used the term hypnotize a lot. He continued to use the term Almighty canvas and Almighty brush throughout the series. It is evident where he got his style, as well as his lexicon. He had an Almighty teacher!

Rest In Peace , sometime I’m so sad that he’s dead and can’t help but think that he’s worth 500 times more than many others I know that are he’s age and alive .

rachel newport making things too perfect? You’re out of your mind. His paintings weren’t ever perfect, he barely ever went over what he did to “perfect” them. He just did them well so it looked perfect.

[@highachiemytale6743]

Bill wasnt as good as bob

[@zlistcelebrityYT]

highachie my tale Bill was better than Bob in this style, but the misconception is that he taught Bob to paint. He only taught Bob the wet on wet technique; Bob already knew how to paint. He only wanted to learn this style from Bill as a means of bringing more people into the world of painting by convincing them it wasn’t as difficult as the masses thought.

Alexander the great

[@seeburgm100a]

After watching a video on KZbin about what's wrong with Bill Alexander videos I would agree.. It would be so nice if Alexander Art would rename each of the video's it presents to us with an Episode number and a date so we could easily follow Bill chronologically.

[@AAlexanderArt]

Many of the shows you see here were never released on PBS therefore they don’t have an “episode number and title. I agree that it would be good to organize them and we are working on that. Playlists by category makes more sense them but doing it chronologically. Bill’s shows didn’t build one episode to the next. He was spontaneous and painted many different subject matters.

I wonder if I can try this with acrylics?

[@soulfullyone1233]

I really would recommend you do it in oil as you'll have more fluidity and time to play around with the motions and movements before adding in the details and allowing it to freeze as you leave it to dry. Acrylic will start to dry up at the most interesting but early steps of the painting and you'll find yourself frustrated trying to get things to shift positions and blend together in other areas.

@@soulfullyone1233 That was a year ago and the acrylics worked out ok.

When u look at this artist and give him kudos remember the world thinks Bob Ross invented wet on wet technique...wrong! It was invented in the 1500’s when the masters were working on their masterpieces...Bill Alexander was on PBS before Bob...but after several years, Bob Ross took the credit. So thank you mr. Alexander for all the instructions, to “Fire it in there!”

[@purplepearl7035]

No, Bob Ross never took the credit. He was clear on that and even had Bill Alexander on the show. Bob was hired by PBS, but he used that technique, but quite a few times on his show explained that Bill Alexander taught him this wonder technique of wet on wet. Go back and watch Bob's shows and you'll hear him. They're both wonderful artists.

[@goxaviergo11]

Mike Ivy you’re kidding, right? Bill was the one that took credit for inventing wet on wet you imbecile. Bill got jealous Bob had his own successful show. Stop spreading false information.

[@goxaviergo11]

@c1rcu1tn3rd why? He was an idiot, you need to re read it. Bob never took credit, he even mentioned Bill and thanked him in a season 2 episode. Bill WAS THE ONE claiming he invented wet on wet, he said it himself.

[@deadbydawn745]

I'm a little confused about who came 1st, Bill or Bob? I mean, did Bill take Bob's technique and refine it? Or is it Bob who learned from Bill? Because I always thought it was Bob who invented this way of painting.

Bill was Bob’s teacher. Bill was first.
