Forget about the painting, the first minute and 45 seconds are words of wisdom. I need this inspiration every day. Thank you Mr. Alexander

[@South3West77]

A mighty sincere man. Such passionate episodes William Alexander creates. Thoroughly enjoy his works. And thankyou so very much for this mighty channel.!!!

[@farmgirl7335]

In total agreement with those who want more of these videos...Bill was so talented and his words of wisdom and ability to teach have blessed me.

[@kerlen01]

I don't know who's been uploading all of these videos lately, but thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Please don't stop until the entire library is uploaded. I used to watch Bill Alexander when I was a kid and it's so wonderful seeing these videos again. This is exactly what we need to be watching in these chaotic times!

[@AAlexanderArt]

Len Frechette thank you for your comments. We believe Bill can help bring love and peace to the world right now while there is uncertainty. We will continue to upload through the “distancing” period we are experiencing now. Enjoy!

[@danielanderson4400]

@@AAlexanderArt Thank you again for all these videos. You have been uploading so many I'm having trouble keeping up! Keep them coming though, they have become a great boost to my daily routine. Bill is/was so cheerful and it comes off the screen and infects everyone who watches him.

William was a beautiful human being. It was a true loss to the world when he passed away. At least we have these videos to remember him by. Thank you.

When did he die?

[@KayInMaine]

Nevermind. Just went to Google. He died in 1997.

Thank you. Bill always makes us feel better.

Bill was one of the most optimistic persons to have ever graced the airwaves. We are fortunate to have these videos to still see him and appreciate his words and art. He will always be the master of wet on wet painting.

[@janetrachel7954]

I love Bill and watching him paint. Don’t get me wrong, I like watching Bob Ross too, BUT Bill just has something that I miss from Bob. Bill has Soul, Spirit!! His painting have such heart ❤️. Bob seems a bit more mechanical. Bill’s paintings have more expressive technique. Do you know what I mean, anyone else feel that way? I like when he ends his show he says “I Love You”. 😍

[@ElLoco182]

I agree! Bob was an instructor, Bill was a painter! This is probably the difference. But I like both was well. :)

[@SDS-1]

Yes keep them coming

[@ziadbassaj7761]

At 16:25 you can really feel that he is extremely sincere in his outpouring of emotion. And that he really really wants to give us all his knowledge, experience & wisdom so we can be happy on earth as he was.......I love when he said It took him 40 years to be able to do it “too fast”.

[@urisnawazir]

U r such a nice human

[@joemenzaart]

Great video

[@Fender178]

Both Bill and Bob have it very correct with thin paint on top of thin paint because this one KZbinr tried to paint the Wet on Wet method using very cheap oil paint and he was becoming a mud mixer very easily and then he used very expensive oil paint and it was a huge difference. With me I get my ideas from both Bill and Bob for my paintings and then I put my own twist on it. Also it is nice to see new Bill Alexander videos because I just stated on this one persons video how Bob's channel has the complete series of his show on there and handful of Bill Alexander episodes on his channel.

It's white paint and turpentine. Very strong smell but effective

Jakethe Snake They have changed the components. No smell now. Bob Ross formula doesn’t smell, either

@@jakethesnake1366 Any white?

[@ishnabu]

Incorrect. It is made using a solid white oil based paint (bill alexander and bob ross used titanium white but you can use any) and linseed oil. Mix both until you get a creamy consistency like lotion.

[@johnbalasa711]

@@ishnabu Thank you. Dose it make the painting chalky, kind a wash? I never tried it.

I don’t think he did anything wrong, we all have people we emulate but you can see where Bob Ross got his style. Which makes me happy and should have made Mr Alexander happy that his legacy continued.
