[@waddadawd]

Great videos, I’ve found that when I’m doing my Bob Ross paintings, I always use way too much color for the sky and end up with too much paint. Thanks for the tips

[@Wild4]

Same - Took me a while to give the right amount down. Thanks for watching 💪

Best tips ever. Its like you're born to teach.

[@Mr73172]

Thank you thank you thank you. i just started painting like this (the only type of art i have ever tried in my 47 years) and these tips are super helpful. I live in Colorado so you can imagine that I love mountains too. the tip to etch out the peaks of the mountains is great. I am going to try this tomorrow on my newest attempt. I appreciate all the tips and will be checking out your channel for more!!!!

Amazing Tips! Especially on the clouds and mountains which I've been having a lot of trouble with. Could you please show your cleaning set up as you paint? And also what techniques you use for a swift cleanup? Question: Lots of brushes? Or lots of paint thinner? As I'm painting I am constantly having to keep cleaning my brush, especially between switching between dark and light colours, also keeping my blending brush clean is quite a chore. How many brushes of the same type would you recommend, and which ones are better suited to paining a typical mountainous bob ross?

Big help Wild-man! I think I am putting way too much paint with each layer I apply, beginning with the magic white. . When I told you "I lost my way" trying to memick one of your paintings, what I meant was my intended blue sky turned out to be light biege, looked like mud. Horrible. I think too much paint is one of my stumbling blocks. I am excited to go try less everything. Dabbing the clouds in instead of sliding them on I am gonna try also :) Thanks again.

How much paint do you put in the knife for the mountains? I feel like I have a hard time forming them cause I can't get the paint off the knife

[@Wild4]

If you are a beginner painter I do recommend a big roll of paint on your knife and a "Not-So-Sharp" Palette Knife. As you practice and get the hang of it, you will start to use less and less paint and you can upgrade to the sharp knife. Here is a video that I did that might help you out kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJ7bk2B5pbZ0n7M - Hopefully this will do the trick :)

[@meredithellenn]

Is there a way you can make acrylics work for this style? I have a ton I don’t want to go to waste (I bought acrylic not knowing the difference between what bob ross uses and what I’ve used in the past) I’ve seen people use some kind of thinner but not sure what kind or if it will even work.

[@Wild4]

There are mediums you can buy that will keep the acrylic wet for longer. But that means you would have to buy more supplies. You can always use a little bit of water and work in smaller sections as you paint and that will work too.

[@cjcclare]

I found this absolutely helpful! However, I faced a little problem after watching bob ross's tutorials followed by your channel... When I started painting my dark greens used for distance trees in between mountains and a lake, the green started to mix with the colors on the canvas, so instead of it being murky green, it faded into the canvas??? I don't even know if that's the proper term, I'm a total noob! But still, I'm really glad of how my painting kind of turned out thanks to your in-depth tutorials!

[@truckerdaddy-akajohninqueb4793]

#wetonwetpainting Like many beginners I bought a cheap starter kit. I have discovered they're too oily. So now I use paper or cardboard as a palette, which soaks up the extra oil. I'll be buying or make a palette out of wood. 2 Less paint is better. Thinner coats. 3 And not be in a rush. 28 minutes is unreal. Cleaning brushes especially takes time. The whole blending, diffusing thing makes mud often enough, no matter how softly I brush. I've discovered there's Too much oil in cheap paint. But cheap is good enough for a beginner. Now that I've realized this I'm making progress. I Use paper or wood as a palette to soak out the extra oil, instead of a plexiglass Bob Ross palette.

[@Wild4]

[@minedablock8914]

Hi, Thank you for making this video. i have a question, can i apply the liquid white straight away with no gesso added or do i have to add gesso to my canvas, Thanks.

[@Wild4]

Most canvases you buy already have a basic coat or two of gesso. So you can just apply Liquid White directly. But just to let you know the cheaper the canvas, the quicker it could absorb your Liquid White. I hope that helps. If you need any more tips, I am launching a new art channel this wee.

Hi! I have a problem with my panting, after i have painted the sky i want to add clouds. But when i add white paint to the canvas, my paint brush which is filled with white color, starts picking up the blue color that is already on the canvas. So all the white color just sort of dissapears in the blue... I have applyed tripple gesso, Liqiud white like you have. And i am pretty sure i didnt use that much blue, i have even went over the sky with a dry brush 3 times. This problem also happens when putting snow on the black mountain, insted of white on black, i just get a grey mountain :( WHat could be the problem? Am i still using too much blue paint? Could the paintings im using not be good enough quality? It is oil paint, but not like bob ross paint. Please help me, this is driving me crazy! I feel i am so close now to be able to paint a picture. Thank u! love your videos!

[@Wild4]

It could be a few things but most common issue us to much liquid white base and too much blue. Blue is a really strong color and it doesn't take very much to cover the sky. If you White paint is too firm and a drop or two of linseed or walnut oil ( this will allow your clouds to flow. Wipe off your brush after every cloud you do ( picking up base color can not be avoided - its just part of the process ) Here is one of my older videos ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5LZg6iKf9OJb9U ) it should help you out a lot 💪

@@Xanarulez I was told that the Gesso is water based, so you should be able to clean with water and super clean up with dish soap and water if necessary The Gesso has to dry over night or 24 hours before you apply the liquid white base coat to the canvas before starting your painting.

[@Wild4]

There are no dumb questions 💪 Funny thing is, I hate my signature too when I paint it on. I have thought about doing the same but never tried it.

Wild4Games thanks for the reply on the dumb question! I have another. Not related to the signature stamping though. I am a screen printer by trade.

I guess it depends on what effect you are going for - I personal would apply gloss coats and varnishes after the painting is complete

[@wirag4680]

With the oil being from the magic white, does it mean that you don't need to mix any more oil on your individual colours?

Adding more oil would increase the flow or effect the dry times. So if you want to do that to your paint, then you would add more.

[@jeffdoyle6790]

Regarding canvases at Michael's, what's the significant difference between level 1, level 2, and level 3 canvases (besides the price)?

[@Wild4]

I plan on making a video about this soon, but the short answer is: As you move up in "Levels" the Canvas cotton or linen will be thicker and more durable. There will be better and more coats of gesso. The frame will have strong wood and move into gallery wrap style. There are a few more small things, but I will cover that in the future video. I hope that helps

[@Mitch.Wasserman]

I find the canvas is also looser on inexpensive canvas. An art teacher showed me a cool trick to tighten them up. Use diluted Elmer"s glue, 4:1 ratio water to glue, painted on the BACK of the canvas. Works immediately. AMAZING.I keep a container mixed all the time, slather it on the BACK, and it takes no time to dry.

Good tip, You can also use shims (little wooden pieces) they can be used to tighten the canvas by squeezing them into the frame corners. You can spray some water on the back of the canvas let it dry in the sun and this will make it tighter. You can also gesso or acrylic the back of the canvas (kinda like your glue trick) All good tips :)

How do I deal with the canvas paper warping after applying a second coat of gesso?

When should I use liquid clear and when should I use liquid white?

[@Wild4]

LC is best for black canvases and giving flow to paints and LW is good as a base medium if you want your colors to be lighter (when you paint on top of them If you need any more help I have new videos on my new channel ( kzbin.info ) Feel free to sub there

This was great but how do you get the snow to "skip" (look bumpy) Whenever I do my snow it ends up being either a straight line of white or I end up grabbing the color underneath :(

I made some video that might help you out - Snow paint breaks ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJ7bk2B5pbZ0n7M ) & Adding Snow ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/pn3KlWymj6h1jrM ) - I hope those help you out. 💪

Wild, Could you show me how to get that small roll of paint on the knife. I don't know what I'm doing. Or do you have a video showing how to do it?
