Legacy of Love: Bill Alexander’s 1986 Painting Adventures

[@BlackCatTales]

Bill always left us feeling joy after each and every show. I'm glad even today it feels like he's still here, painting and bringing joy to new generations

[@AAlexanderArt]

That’s exactly what we want to accomplish with this channel! So thankful that everyone can continue to tune into Bills work whenever they’d like, enjoy his message and art!

[@scooterose100]

He was always an absolute joy to watch. You can’t help but smile with his beautiful personality and paintings!

[@AAlexanderArt]

He is definitely a one of a kind guy! So glad we get to continue to appreciate and benefit from his influence.

[@RichardM1366]

Bill and his wife had a dream. They were pioneers who built a almighty place in nature. Dreams can come true with confidence and preserves. Bill will never be forgotten. When you have confidence and put others before yourself. You will succeed!

[@AAlexanderArt]

Thank you for such a beautiful comment! What an important lesson each one of us could benefit from remembering. Glad you’re here to enjoy Bills legacy!

[@YvonneWilson312]

And such a big heart too - Bill left a legacy of joy that's just as precious as his legacy of art!

[@AAlexanderArt]

You’re exactly right! Bills artwork and lessons wouldn’t mean nearly as much if he didn’t have his radiating positivity 😁

[@RandoPandaSmiles]

What a master. I’ve loved him since before the internet was invented.

[@AAlexanderArt]

Great to hear you’re still a fan of Bills work and here on our channel!

[@MadelineMcCoy-m3s]

I watched him on PBS when I was a kid. Absolutely loved him still do. He was one of a kind ❤

[@johnperry5102]

He was really great, we all watched him all the time, he was the best

[@AAlexanderArt]

Great to hear you’re still tuning into Bill and enjoying his art!

[@jakehopper930]

This dude's joy was immense and all natural. I love it. That's a true role model.

[@AAlexanderArt]

You’re right he really is! Thanks for your comment!

[@sistergrimace1567]

It always cracks me up when he gets fired up in the beginning and he's talking about the inspiration and wonder of nature and he's standing in front of the canvas holding a brush big enough to paint a house with. 😄💪

[@AAlexanderArt]

Isn’t his passion for art so obvious in his work!? You could tell that he not only knew what he was doing but he loved it and loved to share with others!

[@AAlexanderArt]

So glad to hear you’re being exposed to more of Bills art!

[@barbararinck4104]

Wunderschöne Bilder .Sehr gut erklärt und prima gemalt mit Spachtel und Pinsel. Ich bin begeistert von den schönen Bildern.

[@AAlexanderArt]

I’m glad Bill was easy to understand and you enjoyed his end result!

[@krypto61]

I really love his videos. His way of teaching got me into oil painting and now I'm using this technique to paint landscapes of my area :)

[@AAlexanderArt]

So wonderful to hear! Thats exactly what Bill would’ve wanted, someone being inspired to pick up the brush and paint what’s around them!

[@cynthiathompson6818]

Love seeing you back ❤

[@AAlexanderArt]

You’re welcome! Great to hear you’re benefiting from the video and great to have you here on our channel!

I love you too. You inspire me so. Wish you were here so you could know that. ❤❤❤

[@AAlexanderArt]

Hopefully Bill knew his positive influence would continue to touch people all over the world for years to come!

[@k.jespersen6145]

He made a great point in the first part that a cloudy sky means you can do cloud shadows on the mountains, rather than forming everything in highlights. I never thought about that, and it opens up a lot of potential for putting mood and mystery into the paintings. I guess that's the difference between someone who paints in nature and someone who just paints from imagination. 😊

[@AAlexanderArt]

You’re so right! It was very obvious that Bill was familiar with nature and that gave him so knowledge to share with us 😊

[@PhuongPhuong-gg2gh]

Thanks for sharing

[@AAlexanderArt]

You are very welcome. Thank you for watching.

He really is very talented, we are lucky he wanted to help everyone else do the same as him!

[@cherylsuter1432]

What I'd magic white artists talk about?

[@joshjames582]

It's a type of oil paint and the foundation of Bill's wet on wet painting technique. Not to be confused with other Whites like Titanium White. Magic White is a thin, slick paint that holds moisture well. The idea is that the canvas stays wet as you paint over the Magic White in layers.

[@cherylsuter1432]

@@joshjames582 thanks

[@AAlexanderArt]

Exactly right @joshjames582, thank you for answering her! If you’d like to see more or order some of your own this is our magic white listed on our website. Happy painting! store.alexanderart.com/collections/mediums/products/medium-alexander-magic-white

Bill was on a whole another level compared to Bob. I watch Bob's videos too, but tge difference between their paintings is that Bill's look so realistic and energetic, while Bob's look like fanatazy and calming. For me, personally I liked Bill's paintings more than Bob's. I wish there was an unlimited supply of the Maestro's paintings. R.I.P. both Bob and Bill. You are both greatly missed. - From India 🇮🇳 with Love ❤
