All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 1x21 - _track3_[eng]

Hi, I'm certainly glad
you could join me today.

Are you ready to do another
fantastic painting with me? Good!

Get your paints out, a big
glass of iced tea, and let's do it.

Let's start off and have them

run all the colours across
the screen that you need

to paint this painting with me,
and they'll come across as usual,

in the same order
as I have them on the palette.

So, I've done something
a little different today.

Let's go up here and talk about it.

Today, I've covered
the old canvas, well,

maybe we can call this liquid grey.

I've taken liquid black and liquid
white in about equal proportions,

and just covered the outside
of it with this grey colour,

and then a little liquid white
in the centre and blended together.

I'm going to have a lot of dark
I think today in this painting,

so by putting this grey colour on
here,

it already gives you
some of your dark values,

makes your painting life a whole lot
easier.

So, let's take off
and have some fun.

Mm, I'll start the day
with the tiniest little

touch of Yellow Ochre.

Tiniest little amount, OK?
Let's go right up here.

Now, maybe up in here...

..I'm just going to lay in a little
bit of yellow. Just here and there.

I don't want much colour.

I want to have a little bright spot
up here in the sky,

where the light's coming through,

and that's what this
will end up being.

So, that's about all we need, just
the tiniest little touch of colour.

And it mixes with the liquid white,
the liquid grey,

whatever you want to call it.

You can mix your own at home,
no big problem.

Take a little black and white,
about equal proportions.

There.

OK. Now, we'll take a little black.
A little black...

A little touch of the Phthalo Blue.

Just sort of mix them
together on the brush here.

More black than blue.

OK. Now, let's go right up in here.

And just begin putting in
a little bit of colour here,

and let it work down,
towards that light spot.

Much, much more black than blue.

So it really should be
a blue-grey colour here,

that's what I'm looking for.

But in your world, look around and
see if that's the colour you want.

If not, change it.

Change it.

There. Still using little
crisscross strokes. Little exes.

When I was at school, a teacher
used to grade my paper this way,

I think I've mentioned
that in another series.

She'd just run right over
and make exes everywhere.

We get the least little touch
of Alizarin Crimson.

Just least little touch. And still
mixing all this on the brush.

Just let it sort of mix together and
make a happy little lavender colour.

The tiniest little touch of crimson.
So there's not much colour on here.

There.

OK.

OK, I've got several
brushes going here.

So, let me get a nice clean one,

and I'm going to begin
blending this a little bit.

Still using little
tiny crisscross strokes,

just to feather the edges out
and bring it all together.

Start in the light area,
and work outward.

Work outward from the light area

because you don't want to pull that
dark colour down into your light,

you'll lose it all - it'll go
right away and leave you.

Right away and leave you.

Now, you can pick up
a little of that dark, see?

Just tap it back in.

All kinds of little things
happening in here.

There.

This is one of the easiest,
nicest ways

to make a super,
super-effective sky.

Super effective sky.

I know we're never
interested in that happy book,

but if you're selling paintings,
this kind of sky will really sell.

People love them.

They absolutely love them.

OK.

All right,
we can wash that brush out.

We wash our brushes
with odourless thinner.

Shake them off.
Just beat the devil out of them.

All right. Let's make some
little background trees here.

Take a little bit of black,

a little black,
a little Dark Sienna.

A little Van Dyke.
Mostly the browns though.

Black, a little touch of blue
in there as well, what the heck.

Just tap the brush. Now then, you
have to make a big decision here.

Where will some little
background trees live?

I'm using just the corner
of the brush and tapping downwards,

I hope you can see that.

Just tap downward. Start
at the bottom, and work upwards.

We want to make some
little basic tree shapes

far back in the distance here.

Just very basic little shapes.

There. Not looking
for a lot of detail,

just very basic little shapes.

Tell you what,
let's have some water under here.

Just put a little Phthalo Blue
on the brush,

and come right under here.

Look at that. Isn't that easy?

That easy.
Put in a little bit of water.

A little more of the Phthalo Blue.

Shoot, maybe the water
is going to be...

I don't know where
it's going to be exactly.

We're going to have water,
we'll just put it wherever we want.

There.

Maybe a little over in here.

OK.

That's just a little
Phthalo Blue on my dirty brush.

So all the colours
have mixed together.

We sort of have a bluish grey,
a very nice colour.

OK.

And then maybe, I tell you what,

let's just reflect
some of these trees right there -

that's going to be water -
let's reflect some down here.

Like so.

Now, with a two-inch brush,
grab it and just pull down,

pull straight down.

Like so. There we go.
Pull it down, pull it down.

Straight down.
And go lightly across.

And we have instant reflections.

OK.

Shoot, that's going so good,
let's have some more fun here.

Same old dirty brush.

I'm lazy today,
I don't want to clean brushes.

I'm going to take a little
touch of Phthalo Blue,

a little Alizarin Crimson,
a little white into it.

Make a nice lavender,
sort of on the reddish side, though.

Like so. Let's go right up here.

Maybe there's a little light playing
out here on these little bushes.

Like so. Add the least little
touch of the liquid white here.

I want it to be a little bit
thinner, so it will stick easier.

That's nice.

If your paint won't stick, add
a little touch of the liquid white.

Or a little bit of paint thinner.
Doesn't take much, though.

Sure didn't take much.

Just where you think light
would strike these little bushes.

There's another one right there.
That's a pretty one.

Wherever you want them.

There's one.

And this old big one here.
We don't want him left out.

That easy.
Just use the big old two-inch brush.

You can use your one-inch brush.

A one-inch brush works
very nice for this too.

You can use a one-inch,
two-inch, whatever.

Let's take a little
bit of Van Dyke Brown.

Pull it out flat, cut across,

and get a little roll of paint
right on the edge of the knife.

We'll come right underneath
here and very firmly,

just put in an indication
of a little bit of land under here.

This is going to be far away,

so I'm not too worried
about a lot of detail.

Boy, these are some
nice woods back here.

This is where a little bunny rabbit
lives, back here. And a squirrel.

All them little fellas.

I like all those little creatures,
they're my friends.

OK. I tell you what,
we can go right into some brown.

Van Dyke Brown, some black.
Dark Sienna.

Load a lot of paint on the brush.

And maybe over here live some trees.

Sure does now.

In here, all we're doing is
tapping downwards, same way.

This is where you have to start
making some big decisions.

Where does all your...

Where does all your little trees
live? Maybe right down through here.

I don't know.
Wherever you want them.

Comes right on out through here.

There. A little more Dark Sienna.

There we go.

Now, I'm going to start adding
Dark Sienna and Yellow Ochre.

I want it to get lighter and lighter
as it works its way on up here.

Maybe even here and there,

a little touch of Alizarin
Crimson in there, too.

Crimson, Yellow Ochre, Dark Sienna.

Begin thinking about some nice,

big tree branches
that are hanging out here.

Where do you want them?

Where do you want them?

So, Alizarin Crimson...

..Yellow Ochre, Dark Sienna.

All these nice, warm colours.
Very warm, very pleasant.

And then towards the base, you want
it to be darker, darker, darker.

There we go.
Big old limbs hanging out.

Now we go back
to some black and brown,

a little Sap Green in there, too.

Shoot, let's just have this come
right on over here, what the heck.

Wherever you want.

We're just going crazy here.

In fact, we can just fill
all of that with colour.

That'll be pretty. Right in there.

But you see how easy it is to
lay in a tremendous amount of colour

when you're using a big brush?

All you've got to do is
just sort of drop it in,

wherever you think it should be.

That's where it ought to be.

The browns and the blacks,
the greens.

All those little colours.

I tell you what,
more of the browns, maybe.

Maybe. Yes, here it comes.

There it is, see? Right here.
Let's have another tree.

You can have as many
or as few trees as you want.

All you do is just get
an idea in your mind and drop it in.

Let's have a bigger one here.

It comes right on up and
it lives up here in the sky.

Like so.

There.

Did you ever think you could
paint a picture that fast?

You can. You really can.

Same old colours. Black, brown,
a little Sap Green here and there.

Shoot, if I'm not careful, I'm going
to cover up the whole canvas.

And that's all right.
That's no biggie.

You can still cover it all up
and still go back

and put all kinds of little
watery things in there.

It'll still work.

OK. You have to start making
some decisions here.

Where do the big old limbs
live out here?

I want a big tree over here,
a big tree. I tell you what...

..we said we was going to have
water in here. So make a decision.

Where does your water live?
Start pulling it down.

Wherever you want water,

you just pull down
and create reflections, see there?

And you have instant water. Maybe
there is a little peninsula

right out here - I need a little
bit more colour there.

Not quite enough colour.

Right there.
Pull that straight down.

OK. And then go across. That easy.

You can make the most
fantastic reflections.

OK, and we'll take a touch
of liquid white on my knife,

cut across it, and back in here.

I want to just put an indication of
a little waterline.

Push that way back there.

And you literally, literally
just cut right into the fabric.

OK, let me find an old fan brush
here. There's one.

Let's go into some Van Dyke Brown.

Van Dyke Brown,
a little Dark Sienna, what the heck.

OK. Now then...

Let's put us a tree trunk here.

Maybe there's a trunk that lives...
Yes, there is, right in that tree.

And, of course, this old tree,
it doesn't want to be left out.

It needs a nice
trunk to hold him up straight.

Shoot, maybe that tree's so big it
takes two, who knows? Who knows?

Let's go to the other side,
over here.

Over here in all this,
there's got to be,

got to be some trees
happening in there.

Some nice, strong trunks
to hold all that up.

See there?

Wherever you think they should be.

Don't make them all just straight,

they're not all going to end up
being telephone poles.

Trees grow every which way.

And sometimes, you can
just see little parts of trees

because the leaves have covered it
up back in there.

You can make little limbs.

Probably an easier way to make
limbs is to put some paint

thinner on the liner brush, and
we want to mix a little brown here,

till it's absolutely like ink.
It flows.

It's very thin. Very thin.

Turn the brush into a nice,
sharp point. A lot of paint.

Now then, you can go up in here.

You can put all kinds of little
limbs back in here.

Just wherever you think
they should be.

All kinds of little details.

This is where the
squirrels are going to play.

I call squirrels tree urchins...

..for lack of a better word.

I think when I was a kid,

I must have had every kind of pet
imaginable.

In one of the earlier series,

I told a story about a pet snake
I had that I kept for a long time.

I lived in Florida, so I had
access to a lot of creatures,

but I had a pet snake.

He got out of the cage and was
lost in the house for a long time.

My mother got up
and went to the bathroom one night,

and he was in there and scared her.

She still yells at me about that,
and it's been 30 years.

OK. Now, then.

Let's take...

Get an old two-inch brush here.

Don't you tell her I told you that
story about the snake. She'd get me.

A little bit of Yellow Ochre,
Cad Yellow, just mixed together.

Shoot, you can grab
a little Indian yellow,

just tap the brush firmly, see?

Tap it.

OK.

Maybe I'm going to reach up here and
get a touch of the Dark Sienna too.

There.

Grab a little white to put in there.
Nice colour.

OK, let's go up to the canvas.

Now then.

Begin deciding here
where all these little leaves

and tree branches live.

Just use the corner of the
two-inch brush, just the corner.

Now, if you have trouble
making it stick...

..add a little bit of paint thinner,

or the liquid white. Either one.

Either one, it's up to you.

The liquid white naturally will make
it a little bit brighter.

The paint thinner
won't change the colour.

Least little touch though.
There, maybe.

See? Let some of these come over.
And think about shapes here.

Don't just do this at random.

Think about individual shapes
and all the little things.

I'm going to add a little
bit of bright red to that, too.

Sparkle these rascals up in here.
Oo, that's nice. I like that.

See? All kinds of little leaves
living back here.

This would be a nice
place for a squirrel.

There. Wherever you want them.

I like that red colour.
Put a little bit out there, too.

There.

And you can just
go on and on and on,

make all kinds of
petty little things.

OK, and over here on this side.

Need some little,
just a touch of liquid white there.

Maybe just a little more.

Thin this paint down
so it will stick a little easier.

So add a small
amount of liquid white.

Mm!

And you can do this, you can
do this with a one-inch brush,

or a two-inch brush.

There we go.

Once again, I can't say it enough,
look at form and shape on your tree.

Don't just throw them in at random,
you won't be happy with them

if you do.

Think about form, think about what
makes that tree an individual.

A little highlight right out here.

Make it sparkle out here in the sun.

OK. Maybe this old tree here,
he needs some, too.

Just the corner of the brush there,
that's all you're using.

OK. There. Just layer after layer.

See, it's unbelievable what you can
do with a big brush.

Think what you could do
with a smaller one.

OK. Add the least little touch maybe
of Sap Green here and there.

Maybe down in here, shoot,

maybe there's all kinds of little
things happening in here, too.

Still using only the corner
of the brush. Only the corner.

Just wherever you think there should
be some little sparklers here.

Wherever. Maybe, let's go all the
way over here. Maybe back in here.

Let's paint in some woods.
Deep, dark areas.

Deep areas.

And here, I took a little
of the Midnight Black

and mixed it with yellow
to make a very dark, dark green.

Leave those little dark edges
in there, don't kill all of those.

See there though? Still work
in layers, always work in layers.

And work down the hill. Think about
the lay of the land. There it comes.

There it comes, right on down.

See there?

I tell you what,
let's get crazy today.

If you had something like it,
you'd need a little path

so you could go from here to there,

so let's go to there.

Start there, and let's just bring
it straight on across to here.

Van Dyke Brown
is all I'm using here.

Just Van Dyke Brown.

See there?

Right on across.
Now, take some white.

White, a little bit of Dark Sienna,

and with that,
let's just add the least,

least little touches -
some highlights here.

Just make it stand out a little.
Look at that. See?

That easy, you can
make a happy little path.

You can, you can. Look at that.

That would be a super place to go
and fish and have fun.

OK, now then.

Back to our colour,
and we can come back in here

and drop in a few little sparklers
wherever we want them.

There. Maybe there's a little
peninsula right out here.

Like so.

And, see?

All kinds of little things, just
using the corner of the brush here.

That's all you have to do.
A little green.

There.

Mm!

This is such a nice, easy way
to paint, and it works so well.

You can really enjoy it,

and you can do entire paintings
using only this brush.

Just an old two-inch brush.

Work on the lay of the land, though.
Have it coming down the hill here.

Like so.

OK.

Let's put a little bit of ground
area right under this.

Make a little peninsula.

Water goes in two or three places,
we don't know where it goes here.

Comes right on down.

A little touch of highlight on that.

Like that. A little bit out here.

See that?

Then you put just a happy little
waterline in there.

Just sort of cleans up the edges,
brings it all together.

Let's have some fun.
Let's have some fun.

I'm going to dip my brush right
into a touch of the liquid white.

Go into...some yellow.

Mostly white, though.

A little bit of yellow here,
and let's come right out in here.

Let's get brave.

Boom.

Just going to throw
in some sparklers here.

Just drop them in.

Mm!

Here we're going
to check you for bravery.

And now we have to have
something for that to sit on.

What's causing that?

Well, this is what's causing it.

I want a big old tree,

and I want those leaves, those limbs
that are bright and shiny,

to be on the other side.

So you put those in first,
and put the trunk over it.

Then back to our liner brush
with the nice, thin paint on it.

And we can put in just
an indication here and there

of some big old limbs

because you have to have
something to hold all that up.

There.

Isn't that something?

You can do it.

OK, let's come back here.

I'm going to use yellow -
Yellow Ochre, Cad Yellow,

and I'm going to get
a little bit of bright red,

reach up here, get some white.

A lot of colour on the brush.

Now then, let's put some leaves
on this big old tree.

They've got to be a little bit
lighter so they stand out.

Mm!

A lot of good colours here.

Back to that bright red,
I like that.

OK, now.

Let's bring these right on around,

let them come right
on in front of the tree.

We want some nice leaves in
front of the tree, too.

You don't want them all behind.

I like these kind of paintings.

They're very soft,
and they're different to

a lot of the paintings
we've been doing in the past.

There.

Just let them rascals float around,

and maybe there's
a couple back in here.

We don't know exactly
where all the limbs are.

There.

OK, and then we can take
a little touch of brown and white,

and let's just put an indication
of a little highlight on this tree.

A little light striking down here.

And maybe back in here.

Just to make those
shine a little bit.

Maybe right here. Oh,
there's a nice little bright one.

It lives right along the edge.

See there?

Take the point of the knife, scrape
in a few little sticks and twigs.

And you have got one
fantastic painting done.

I certainly hope you enjoyed this.
A little different,

but it'll really give
you a lot of experience.

From all of us here,
happy painting and God bless.
