All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 1x18 - _track3_[eng]

Welcome back. Glad you could join me
today.

I hope you're having a fantastic
day

and you've got your paints out ready
to paint along with me.

I think you're going
to enjoy this one.

Let's start off,
and have the graphics run all

the colours across the screen that
you need to paint along with me.

While they're doing that,
let's go up on here and get started.

I've already covered the cameras
with liquid white

and it's all wet and ready to go,
so we can take right off today.

I'm going to start right off with
a little touch of the Prussian Blue.

Just a little bit.
Just tap the brush right into it.

Just a little.

Reach over here and grab a little
bit of the Midnight Black.

OK, let's go right up here.

Now, then, let's just dance in some
happy little sky things here.

Just using little Xs,
little crisscross strokes,

just so it'll let that go.

Just have fun with it.

Just have fun.

The paint will mix with the liquid
white and automatically,

automatically, it will get lighter
in value as you work down towards

the horizon.

There.

Maybe a little touch more
right there. OK.

And that quick, you can have a basic
little sky,

just a little blue sky,

and then, very lightly just brush
across to take out the brushstrokes.

OK.

Now then, let's take another brush.

I have several going so I don't
have to

spend all my time washing them.

Let's go into Titanium White.
We'll make a happy little cloud.

Pull that brush through the paint.

I'm going to reach down,

and give that the least little touch
of the bright red.

Just the least little touch.

A lot of paint on the bristles here,
OK.

Let's just come right up here

and dance in a happy little cloud or
two.

And I'm just using the brush in
small little circular patterns here.

Tiny little circles.

Let the bristles work,
let them build your cloud for you.

You're looking for all those nice,
soft fluffy edges.

Oh, this is a fantastic day, and
the clouds are playing in the sky.

Just let them bounce around.

Wherever you think they should be,

that's exactly,
exactly where they ought to be.

OK. I'm going
to wash that brush out.

And we just grab our brush and
odourless thinner, paint thinner.

Shake off the excess and just take
out all your frustrations.

OK, now, with a clean,
dry brush, very dry.

If you have trouble drying the
brush,

you probably can't beat it like I
can in your living room

or wherever you paint,
because you would cover everything.

They make a thing called a brush
beater rack

that you can put in the bottom of a
waste paper can,

garbage can or something,

and you can shake your brush
inside the can and beat it

against this rack and that keeps it
contained,

so it doesn't go all over your
house.

You might want to have one of those
if you're going to paint inside.

There we go.

OK. Shoot. We've got us
a quick little sky that easy.

Now, then, let's take,
maybe back in the background here,

let's put a few little bushes
and trees back here.

We'll take some Dark Sienna,
some Van Dyke Brown,

and I'm using the brown brush.

I'm just going to tap this colour
right into it.

Pick up a little black too, what the
heck. A little Sap Green.

Tap firmly to load the brush.
OK, let's go right up here.

Now, then, decide where you
want your little bushes to live.

These are distant trees.

And just very quickly just
tap in some basic shapes.

Very, very basic shapes.

We're not looking for any detail,

all you're looking for is just
some basic shapes.

See there.

However many you want.

OK, now then, with the same brush,

let's go right into a little touch

of, oh, we'll use some Yellow Ochre

and I'm going to reach up here and
be right back.

Get a little bit of the Sap Green,
a little Cad Yellow,

and once again, I'm just
tapping it in.

Allow that colour to
stay on the brush

because I want to dot all this.

OK, just go ahead up here.

Now, then, with just the top
bristles.

You can put in all types of little
highlights here.

And see how that easy it is?

Just tap them in.

And we're still not
looking for a great deal of detail.

If you have troubles making
the paint stick,

add a little paint thinner.

But all
you need is the tiniest little bit.

Tiny little bit. Don't overdo
with the paint thinner.

Tiniest little bit.

See, and make layers.

That'll create the illusion of
depth.

Look at that, and all those little
things,

it's just thousands of little
leaves there

and you can do it and just a matter
of a minute or two.

That easy. OK.

Let's have a little pond under here.

That's easy to do, and a lot of fun.

You know me, I love water.

Go back to my brush that had the
blue and the black on it,

and we can just come right across.

That easy. Get the indication
of a little touch of water.

And if you wanted to reflect all
these little bushes that you made,

you can take the same brush, just
turn it upside down, tap downward.

Like that. You could put in some
basic, basic ideas there.

We're not looking for a great
deal of detail.

Now, take your two-inch brush
and pull gently down.

This is two hairs and some air.

It's barely, barely touching,
then go across.

Ain't that neat?

Instant reflections
are that easy. That easy.

And we can take a little
of the browns, the Dark Sienna

and Van Dyke, and just mix them
together.

Hold the knife very flat,

cut across and get that little
roll of paint out here on the knife.

Let's go right up in here

and just put a little land back
here.

I'm just going to sort of scrub that
in.

There we go.

Just to give the indication of a
little land that lives back here.

There we go.

Just something for all those trees
to sit on,

and you can take a
little of the liquid white

and put a little brown in it to dull
it.

Cut across.

And just put in the indication
of a little waterline here.

I don't want this to be too bright
and shiny,

because it's going to be too far
back in the painting,

and I don't want it to distract from

whatever it is we put in the
foreground.

OK. Let's build some more trees.

I like them trees.

Same old round brush,
we'll go back into the browns.

Reach over here
and I'll get a little of the blue,

a little of the Sap Green.

Oh, shoot, we might as well have
some black too. Whatever.

Basically,
we're looking for dark colours.

OK, let's go back up here. Now,
then.

I want a bigger tree here, but I
still want to start at the base

and work up,
so it's darker down in here.

Down here, we have all these
shadows.

This is where a little
bunny rabbit hides.

See, and as we work up here

we can pick up the paint that's
on the canvas

and automatically, it
gets lighter in value.

Learn to use what happens.

Don't fight it.

Let's bring this right on down.

We'll just push that little pond
right on back into the background.

OK, maybe, yes,
let's just keep going here.

These trees are so much fun to make.

All we're looking for at this point
is the basic shapes.

Just basic shapes.

So just sort of look around your
yard

and see the kind of trees you have,

and if that's what you want to
paint, you paint that initial shape.

And then we'll come back and we'll
highlight those trees

and put all the little leaves

and all the little pretty things
into it.

But initially, all you're looking
for is just the basic shapes.

And normally, it's always
darker down here at the base

than it is at the top.

There we go.

There.

See? Just tapping, all we're doing
is tapping. It's very easy.

OK, let's load our brush again.

And maybe right here? Yeah, what
the heck.

Let's just push this lake way
back.

We do that just by putting some
bushes right here.

If I'm not careful, I'm just going
to cover that little rascal up

and the plants will drown
right there.

OK. Right.

All right, all right.

Use our liner brush,
a little No 2 script liner,

and I'll go right into some of that
brown colour.

Load the brush full.

You want your paint to be very thin.
Let's go right up in here and touch.

And we just make the indication of a
few little tree trunks here now.

We're going to put
leaves in all these trees,

so we're going to lose
most of these things,

so you don't have to put a whole
bunch of detail in here.

Save your detail for the foreground.

There we go.

Just some happy little things.

You're going to see a few little
trunks and limbs here and there.

So, OK.

Ain't it fantastic that you
can build a tree that easy?

All right, and a few little things
wherever.

Wash out my little brush.

Now, then, let's take a round brush,

and we'll go right into some yellow.

And some yellow ochre.

Yellow ochre, and I'm going to
reach up here again.

I just slip off and leave you
sometime, don't I?

Come back, got a
little green on there.

A little sap green. Tap the brush
full of colour.

OK, let's go right up here.

Now go slightly above the dark

and just begin tapping on all those
little leaves and stuff there.

Just here and there.

See there?

And once again,
don't just throw them on at random.

Make little patterns,

because those limbs will project
out every which way.

There we go. Add a little Yellow
Ochre right in there.

Just let all these little
things happen.

Put some on this tree. I don't want
him left out.

There we go.

There we go.

And over here.

See? Do one tree at a time, though.

Remember, each one of these little
trees and bushes,

they're individuals.

They each have their own
separate personality.

There. And a little
touch of the bright red right there.

See how nice it makes that one?

And just pick out places you
think there's a bush,

and that's where he lives.

That's where he lives.

OK. Add a little thinner
to my brush there.

That'll
make the paint stick easier.

There. That's another one.

See, now, here we have two
that are exactly the same colour.

The only thing that separates them
is that little dark area.

That little dark area is very
valuable.

When you're painting,
don't kill all the darks.

Save them little rascals.

They're your friends.

They'll make you happy.

And they'll make your paintings
beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

There we are.

OK. There's a nice one.

Looks
like it has little flowers on top.

That's one of them happy accidents.
Cherish them.

Don't fight them.

Now, see
all the dark that's left back here?

Without that, there would be no
depth. Absolutely no depth.

It'd be as flat as
if you'd cut it out of newspaper

and just glued it up there.

And you would not be happy with it.

There we go.

If I don't stop, I'm going to cover
up the whole canvas here with all

these happy little trees.

OK. OK. Now, then.

You can take the knife and just take
the point of the knife and

scrape right through the paint and
let some of the white shine through.

And make all kinds of little limbs
and twigs,

all the things it takes to hold up
all these little clumps of bushes

and grass, and the small trees
and all those things.

Just by scratching through
the paint, see? It's that easy.

OK. Let's have some fun.

Let's have some fun.

I'm going to take some brown
and then go right into Sap Green.

I put the brown in there just to
dull the green down.

I want it to be very dark. Very
dark.

OK, let's go right up in here.

Now, just by tapping, I want to
tap in

some dark colour, right in
there.

And all I'm doing is just
tapping downward. See there?

OK.

Browns and greens,
and throw some black in there.

And here's where we begin
thinking about the lay of the land.

In other words,
the direction the land flows.

There.

We need this dark colour so we can
come along and highlight it,

put grass on it,
and it'll stand out.

It's the only way you can make
that stand out is

if you have dark underneath.

Light
against light gives you nothing.

Dark against dark gives you nothing.

Got to have
dark in order to see light.

It's just like in life.

You have to have a few of those dark
days,

so you understand
when you have a good one.

Otherwise they'll just sneak by
and you'll never notice it.

There we go.

Hmm.

Look at all those little things
that just happen.

Already, you can
see how the land flows here.

And that's what we're trying to do.

OK. That'll give us a base coat to
work with.

Now, then, same old brush.

I want this coloured
very dark.

I want to go back in here and put
just an indication

of a little bit of highlight.

Don't want much back here.

I'll show you why in a minute.
I just made a decision.

See, when you paint,
you have unbelievable power,

unbelievable power,
and you have to make big decisions.

And I just made a decision.
Just made a big decision.

I want to have a happy little
building right here,

so come right down here
and let's watch.

First, you have to make a decision

where your building's going
to live.

And one of the easiest ways is to
take your knife

and begin scraping out the general
shape

that you want this building to be.

Maybe there's the roof,
like so.

See there?

This removes that excess paint back
here and allows you,

without being committed,
to lay your building out.

You can just change the shape
any way you want it,

because at this point,
you're not committed.

Maybe it's got a little roof that
comes out this way. Who knows?

Scrape out all this paint.

And when you're at home,
at this point,

step back and take a looksee.

See if it's what you want.

It helps to stand away
from your canvas and look at it.

OK, now we can begin
filling it in here.

We've got a basic idea what we want,
now then,

let's take, start with Van
Dyke Brown, a little roll of paint.

Always use that little roll of
paint.

And now it's just
fill in the squares.

There you go.

We'll just put that right in.

See how easy that is? Just
drop it right in.

Just like so. Right out through
there, we're going to have it.

OK.

A little bit right here. Pull down.

Down. See, we're still keeping the
basic idea. We're not committed yet.

We can do anything that we want to
do back in here.

But we're still keeping
the basic idea in mind.

There we go.

Boy, don't you wish it was that easy
to build a house in real life?

Now, then, let's begin putting some
fun things on there.

I'll take some Dark Sienna and some
bright red and reach over here

and get some Titanium White.

And don't overmix it. Leave
it about like that.

We'll grab it.

And let's come right down here.

I'll put a little touch of highlight
right along that edge.

See, that'll indicate there's
a little something else going on

on the other side of the roof.

Now, let's take some white,
grab some of that blue.

And some brown.

And we'll just mix all that together
and make sort of a bluish grey.

We'll throw some black in there.
Oh, that's nice.

A nice shadow colour.

Once again, little roll of paint.

Now then, now then,

just let
this sort of bounce along here.

Gloop, gloop, gloop.

If you don't make them
little noises, it don't work!

OK, now you really do have to start
making some big decisions.

Where is this little...? If this is
going to be a little shed,

You have to start deciding
where it's at.

Maybe there's a little light
plays through here,

and there's a little highlight that
bounces along here.

See that? See that? Ain't that neat?

And you can do that.
You really can do that.

Over here, I'll take just a little
touch of the light colour

and just sparkle that
so that roof stands out.

Maybe see those lights really
zinging through right there.

And that'll sort of give us an idea
of just where the roofline is, see?

OK. Now we can come in here and
really start playing. Dark Sienna.

We'll just go right back in there.

Pull that out.

A little roll of paint again.
There we are.

Now, then, touch. No pressure.

No pressure.

Barely, barely,
barely caress the canvas.

No pressure. No pressure at all.

I want to make this look old and
tired.

Shoot, this looks like me.

OK, little bit right in here.
See there?

Now this side over here,
we want it very dark. Very dark.

Very dark.

So we'll take some Dark Sienna
and Van Dyke Brown,

and just the tiniest little bit of
white.

We want to keep this side very dark.

Not as much light's
going to strike over here.

OK. Now then,
this is just a little bit brown

and we can come right down in here.

And we can make all
kinds of old boards, see?

Make it look old, old, old, old,
old.

Just that easy.

You can put little sparkles here
and there, little touches of white.

You can really get in here and make
this look like old, old wood.

Just wherever you think it should
be, that's where it ought to be.

OK, we need a door.

I've been known to paint barns
and cabins

and forget to put a door in them.

But let's put one right here.

Just Van Dyke Brown,
pull it down, just straight down.

That's all you have to do.

A little bit of colour, cut around
it.

That easy.

Tell you what. Shoot,
we're having so much fun with this.

Watch here, watch here, watch here.

Maybe this guy, maybe he's like me.

Runs out of room continually,

and he had to build a shed
right out here.

See? Just pull that out.

Come straight down.

Over here, this'll be lighter.

Isn't that super?

Come along here, put a few little
board indications in there.

Ain't that easy?
You got a happy little shed.

And you can put a little
bit of colour right on the roof to

make it sort of separate and stand
out.

A little highlight
right along there. Gloop, gloop.

And we have,
well, we have one nice little barn.

Then maybe, come right up
in here, let me show you something.

Maybe you want to create the
illusion that this is an overhang.

You can come right back in it.

I'm going to waste
all my time playing with this barn,

but there's so many things I want to
show you here.

See, you can cut that off
and then make this very dark, see?

Now watch, watch, watch.

We go back into that
and we need a little bit of shadow.

A little shadow. Now we come
along here and put some posts.

Highlight those little posts.

Just touch. OK.

Enough playing,
I've got to get moving here.

I get carried away sometimes.

These little buildings are
so much fun to make.

Let's come right along here,

put some little grassy
things that live right out.

Come right in.

OK. Let me find my little knife.

I'll use the little knife for this.

Maybe right in here, a little
fence.

Gloop, gloop, gloop. Off it goes.

Right off into the distance.

Wherever, wherever, wherever.

See? Put a little wire
right across there. That easy.

Push everything back.

Now there's a little place,

a little place where the farmer can
store stuff up underneath there.

And we'll put a little
touch of thinner on there.

The yellows, a little green.

OK.

Now then, let's begin creating all
the little grassy things

that we'll want in here.

Just wherever you want.

Wherever you want them.

And this is where you really,
really, really

make the lay of the land work.

OK, maybe right over in here.

Look at all those little things.

You see how easy they are.
You just drop them in.

Just drop them in.

Tell you what, maybe there's a
little road in there.

Take this Van Dyke Brown, decide
where your road lives and pull it.

That easy.

That easy.

We'll just fill up the whole canvas,
what the heck.

What the heck.

Now then, little bit of brown
and white, touch it.

Touch it and pull.

Yep, yep, yep, yep.

OK?

See there? Now, maybe,
maybe there's a little path

that comes out,
and you can just go crazy.

In your world, you put whatever you
think ought to be there.

A little bit of paint right there.

OK.

And bring a little
bit of the grassy things right down

so it brings all this together.

See how simple?

This old big brush does fantastic
things.

Fantastic things.

And over here,
on this side of the path,

we need some more little grassy
areas to bring all this together.

Just bring it all together.

Look at that.

Look at that.

Hmm, that quick.

You can create all of this beautiful
landmass

just by tapping
a little bit with a big brush.

Then maybe, what's going here?

Maybe - doop, doop, doop -
we'll put a fence.

Put a little fence,
a touch of highlight on it.

Cut across a little bit of paint

and then we've put some wire on the
fence.

Cute. You can do anything. You can
do absolutely anything.

Let's take some brown here.
Watch here, watch here.

Maybe there lives...

.. yep, sure does.
A big old tree.

And a little tree.

Just like that.
Just like that.

Let's put some
highlight on that tree.

See? See?

There he is.
Pull that round a little more.

This looks like a little
birch tree right

here in front of the barn.

And with our liner brush, a little
bit of thinner.

We can go right up in here, take
a very thin paint,

and let's just put an indication

of a happy little tree line here and
there,

just here and there.

Wherever you want them.

The old clock on the wall tells me
it's time to leave you for today.

But I'll be back again next time.

So, as I finish putting
these limbs on here,

I'd like to wish you happy painting.

God bless. Thanks for joining me.
