All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 1x23 - _track3_[eng]

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

You ready to do a fantastic
little painting with me? Super.

Drag out the old easy chair
or the easel, whatever,

and let's do one together.

Let's start out and have them
run of all the colours

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

And they'll come across in the same
order as I have them on the palette.

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

Have our 18x24 inch canvas,
it's all covered with liquid white,

it's ready to go so let's go.

Thought today we'd do
a happy little scene.

I'm going to start out
with a little touch

of alizarin crimson.

And just tap it into
the two-inch brush.

Need very, very little paint.

Don't get carried away
with the paint,

just a little bit goes a long way.

Let's go right up here.

Now I'm going to go right
in right about here

and just make little crisscross
strokes, little Xs.

Little Xs.

And when you're doing this, use very
little paint, very little paint.

Don't want to set the sky on fire.

All we want to do is have
a nice pinkish glow in the sky.

There we go.

Very little paint.

I think we'll have
a little water in this, so maybe,

while I have that on the brush,

just put a little bit
right down here.

There we are.

OK.

Now then, same old dirty brush,

I'm going to load a touch
of the phthalo blue.

Phthalo blue,
and just tap the brush

right in to a little bit of colour,
very little.

And then we can go right
up to the top...

..and still using
the little crisscross strokes,

our little Xs, little Xs.

We're just dancing,
a happy little sky here.

Now, the paint is continually mixing
with the liquid white

and the colour gets lighter
and lighter as you work downward.

There we go.

OK. And we said
it was going to have water.

So let's add a little bit down
at the bottom here.

Just a touch, just a touch.

Pull from the outside in, I don't
want to kill my little pink area.

Want to save that,
that's going to be your friend.

OK, a little bit on the other side.

We don't want water on just one
side of this pond.

We want water on both sides.

There we go.

Now then, let me wash the old brush.

And we wash our brushes, as usual,
with odourless paint thinner.

These are oil paints,

so you need paint thinner to get
the paint out of the brush.

Shake off the excess.
BOB CHUCKLES

And just cover everybody
in the studio!

OK, nice clean, dry brush.

I want to go right back up here

where the two
different colours meet.

And begin blending. Still using
the little crisscross strokes.

And you want to blend this
until it's so soft,

you can't tell where one colour
stops and the next one starts.

And maybe when you're doing this at
home, step back and take a look-see.

When you're really close to it,
it's hard to see.

HE BANGS BRUSH
It's hard to see.

So step back and look at it,

and make sure it's blended
the way you want it.

OK.

There we are.

And we'll just use some long
horizontal strokes

to take off all the brush marks.

And at the bottom,
we just blend all this together.

Just blend it together.

OK.

And we're ready.
Shoot, let's have some fun.

Tell you what, let's make a,
let's make a mountain today.

We'll make a big old mountain.

I'll use some black,
little Prussian blue,

grab some alizarin crimson,
put some Van Dyke brown there too,

what the heck.

Looking for a nice dark colour.

Pull it out as flat
as you can get it.

And cut across with the knife
and get that little roll of paint.

There we are, let's go.

And let's come right up in here
and make a big decision,

where does your mountain live?

Maybe our mountain's going to
live... Yeah, there it is.

And push this firmly
into the fabric.

Really push hard.

Get mean, strong with it.

Just push it right in there.

Maybe there's another peak here.

You just decide how many peaks live
in your mountains and drop them in.

You can do anything
you want on this canvas.

Anything.

You've heard me say it over
and over, this is your world.

And you can do anything here.

And we just sort of let that
drift off, I think maybe

I'll put some tress over here
so we'll cover that up.

OK, now we'll take
a two-inch brush...

..and I want to pull that down.

You can see the entire mountain,

it's always more distinct at the top
than it is at the bottom.

So by pulling it down like this,
automatically, that happens.

Automatically, that happens.

The colour's mixing with the
liquid white and it gets lighter,

and lighter, and lighter,
down toward the base.

And then we can just blend it here
a little bit so this old mountain

range just looks like
it's just sitting up here

in the sky and floating.

And that'll, that'll give us
some nice mist at the base

when we're finished.

There we go.

We're ready.

Tell you what, let's take...

We'll use titanium white.

I'm going to grab
a little bit of black,

a little black and a little
bit of brown, just a small amount.

I want to dull this white down.

So I have black, a little brown,
a bit of Van Dyke brown in it.

Pull it out very flat,
just like we did before

and then cut across.

And we have our little roll of paint
right out on the edge of the knife.

Most important, most important that
you load this knife correctly.

Spend some time and practise
loading the knife.

Now, with no pressure,
no pressure, no pressure,

just touch and let the paint break,
let it break.

There you go.
And you can begin shaping

and forming your mountain
the way you want it.

Just sort of think like a mountain.

There we are,
maybe this one up here...

Mm. This looks like
the Grand Tetons.

Teton.

For many years,
I didn't know what that meant.

A lady in class finally told me
what Teton meant.

And I'm not going to tell you,
you'll have to go look it up.

There.

And when you look it up,
you'll know why I didn't tell you.

OK, there we go.

See, just barely touching
the canvas,

just barely touching it,
just let it graze here and there.

Very light touch,
no pressure, no pressure.

Let your hand just float.

OK, maybe right in there.

So make a decision, drop it in.

Or you can create all
kinds of fantastic things.

That easy.

And over here, maybe a little
light zings through here

and hits right there
and bounces and plays.

Just has a good time.

Good time. There we are.

And a little bit right here too,
what the heck.

Sort of thinking, in your world
where you want light to hit and

you want these little
mountains to sparkle,

because you can do anything
you want to do here.

Can create any illusion
that you want.

Any illusion that you want.

OK, I'll add a little touch
of Prussian blue to that same

colour, just a little touch.

Little touch, not much, not much.

Just to really blue it down.
Let me get the small knife.

Let's use the small knife, it
gets into those little areas better.

And I'm going to load it the
same way, little roll of paint,

just right out there.

OK, now then, here and there,
I don't want much because I want

it to stay dark, but here and there
just put the indication of a shadow.

See. Don't overdo, just a few.

These are some very simple mountains
but easy to do. You'll like these.

There.

See, just sort of think
where a shadow would live

and drop him in.

Wherever, wherever, wherever.

OK.

Now then, we want to enhance that
illusion of mist at the base.

So I'm going to take a clean
dry brush and just tap.

Just tap it.

And I'm tapping quite firmly,
and you can probably hear it.

I'm really, really hitting
it but just the base,

you don't want to destroy,
all you want to do is diffuse.

Just diffuse and lift upward,
that removes your little tap marks

and creates this nicest,
softest mist.

There.

There we go.

Mm.

See how that mountain just,
just sort of floats in space there.

That's what you're looking for,
that's pretty, you'll like that.

You'll like that.

Tell you what,

let's put a few little
trees down at the base of that.

We'll take some black,
Prussian blue,

brown, crimson, whatever.

Sap green, we'll put a little
sap green in there.

OK, just mix up a big
pile of dark colour.

OK, let me,
let me wipe off my knife.

I think today, I think I'll just use
a one-inch brush, that's easy.

Just pull it through the paint.

Pull it through the paint.

Load it full of colour.

OK, let's go right up here.

Maybe there's some little trees that
live back here in the distance.

So just touch,
give it a little upward push.

Just a little upward push,
don't kill all your mist area.

You want to save that mist.

See? There we go.

And you make the decision here,
how big are your trees.

They're far, far away
so don't let them get too big.

Far away.

There.

Maybe about like so.

Wherever.

Over here, we've got
to have a little tree too.

We'll just run them
right off the edge.

There.

OK.

Now then, I'm going to grab a,
grab the old fan brush, maybe.

Maybe, maybe.

Load that brush full of paint.

OK, let's go right up here.

Maybe back in here also, are one
or two little evergreen trees

that live back here.

We'll just throw
a couple of those in.

They're a lot of fun to do and this
will give you a little practice.

And if there's a secret to painting,
or to anything else, it's practice.

It's practice.

There. You can do anything
you want to do

if you're willing to practise
a little bit.

There we go.

Now then, an old dirty brush here.

Use it.

Take a little bit of the dark sienna
and the Van Dyke brown,

and let's begin laying some land
areas in here under these trees.

All I'm doing is just tapping.

We're going to just tap some colour.

Just tap it.

OK.

Just right up to the
base of those trees.

We'll make a little meadow that sits
out here under these big mountains.

Now, maybe it comes down to about,
oh, about there.

Somewhere around there.

Wherever you want.

There.

And all we're doing here
is just putting in,

just putting in a base colour.

Just putting in a base colour.

OK, now you can also decide where
you want your reflections to be

and just grab the base of
this and pull it down.

Just the bottom.

Just pull it down. See that?

See that?

Hm, that's easy!

And it works so well. Reflections
are one of the nicest things

that happen in this technique.

Just happens so beautifully.

OK.

Let me grab another two-inch brush
here, make sure it's clean.

I'm going to tap
right into the yellow ochre,

cad yellow,
we'll grab some Indian yellow.

Let's just mix them on the brush.

Load the brush but tapping it,
just give it a little push.

See, tap.

OK, let's go right up here.

Now then...

Maybe up in here, some nice little
grassy areas in here.

Just tap, tap, tap.

See there? OK.

And make layer, after layer,
after layer.

That'll help create the illusion
of depth in your painting.

Now, if you have trouble
making your paint stick,

add a little bit of paint thinner.

Tiny bit of paint thinner
to your brush, tiniest little bit.

Can't say that enough.

And just drop it on.

Remember, that a thin paint
will stick to a thick paint.

And work in layers.

Doing the most distant areas first
and working forward.

Going to touch a little bit of the
bright red too. What the heck.

Put some sparklers here and there.

There we go.

It looks like a nice fall...

..painting out here in the meadow.

There.

You can make just layer,
after layer, after layer.

As many, or as few, as you want.

See how soft that is, though?

Wouldn't that be a super place
to go out and take your shoes off,

just sort of run around in there
barefooted and have a good time.

Talk to all the little creatures,

little bunny rabbits
that live out there.

There.

And maybe some right in here,
wherever you want them.

As I say, it's yellow ochre,
cad yellow,

a little Indian yellow and a touch
of bright red here and there.

And maybe, maybe right along this
edge here, I'm going to go

right into dark sienna
with the one-inch brush.

Maybe there's some dark
little bushes here.

I'm just playing light against dark,
dark against light, over and over.

A stark colour against the light,
it'll really stand out.

Just dark sienna.

There we go.

And just bring it
wherever you want it.

Maybe right up in here.

OK.

Now then, once again, we're going
to take this two-inch brush

and grab just the edge of that.

Pull it down and really
enhance our reflections a little.

Then go across.

There we are.

Take our knife,
go into a touch of the liquid white,

just a touch, pull it out very flat
and cut across, like that.

OK? And then go up in here
and let's put the indication here

and there, a happy little water line
that just sort of floats around.

Once again, this is a light
area against the dark, separates,

makes it look nice.

There.

And maybe there's a little ripple
here and there on this pond,

I don't know.

Whatever you'd like.

And I get the knife here,
we can go up in here and here

and there we can scrape
the indication of a trunk

and little sticks and twigs,

all kinds of little things
that are happening back here.

Wherever you want them.

There.

All kinds of little sticks
and trunks, that easy.

OK.

Tell you what,
it's such a nice place, maybe,

maybe there'd be a little
cabin out here.

Maybe one day there was an old
farmer or a rancher that had

a cabin out here and he got tired
and moved away.

There.

So, maybe one of the easiest ways
to make a cabin is to scrape out

a basic shape...

..just scrape out your basic
shape.

Get the small knife here and now
let's just lay in some colour.

Start with Van Dyke brown.

All we're doing is
putting in a base.

This is just a base colour.

See?

Now, come down to the front.

Sides.

That easy.

All you're doing is just
laying on an under colour

so you can put
highlights on top of it.

There.

But there's only three or four
strokes there

and already you have the
indication of a little cabin.

So let's take some bright red,
bright red,

a little dark sienna in it.

Mix it up, put a touch of white.
Oh, that's nice.

Don't over mix. Cut across and
get a little roll of paint

right on the edge of the knife.

This is a small knife.

Now then, we're just going
to let it,

just float right down the top
of this roof.

Just touch it and let it bounce.

Make it look like old shingles here
that are just about ready

to blow off.

This cabin's had a rough life,
it's like me.

It's had a hard time.

OK, take a little dark sienna
and white.

And put the indication of a few
little boards on the front,

add a little more brown to that

and make it a little darker
for the side. There.

Thinking, that easy, you've got
a pretty good little cabin.

Take a little bit of dark paint,
make some old slabs here.

Just a little brown on the knife.

OK.

Shoot, tell you what, tell you what,
let's take a little more brown,

we'll put a little door right there.

Got to have a way to get in and out.

And then just sort of scrape around
it to give it a nice outline.

Maybe, maybe there's a window.

Shoot, this is a big time cabin,
fancy cabin, it's got a window.

Take a little touch of white.

Just want to sort of highlight
the edge

so it stands out and you can see it
a little better. There.

OK.

Let's go back to our two-inch brush
and put a little grass

right around its foots,
got to have a little grass here.

There, just sort of
bring it all together.

Well,
that does look like an old cabin.

It's really,
it's caught the devil out there.

Been a hard life.

Hard life.

Tell you what, let's have some fun.

I'm going right into dark sienna,

Van Dyke brown with a two-inch brush
and tap it.

Just tap it.

Said was going to have some trees
over here, so let's...

..just begin tapping
in some basic shapes.

Right now,
we're painting the back of a tree.

Now you begin working
on some individual limbs.

I'll add a little yellow ochre
so it gets a little lighter.

Got dark sienna,
Van Dyke brown, touch of,

just a touch of
yellow ochre in there.

Maybe this one just goes right
on off the canvas, what the heck.

What the heck. It's your tree,
you put it wherever you want it.

Make up a little,
a little more of the yellow ochre

and let's just put
the indication here and there

of a little highlight.

Not much yet, not much yet.

There.

There we go. See.

OK. Now then, let me
grab the old fan brush.

We will take the old fan brush
and go right into Van Dyke brown.

Load a lot of paint onto the brush,
a lot of paint.

Let's go back up here now.

Now then, let's put some tree
trunks, just pull it right through.

Sshhh, there's one.

And you have to make some
big decisions.

How many trees live in your world?

Two? Three, you say?

All right. There's three.

And you can just go on and on, and
put in as many or as a few as you

want in there, it's up to you,
however many you want.

Going to take some yellow ochre
and a little bit of bright red too.

Shoot, we'll get fancy here.

Just tap it.

Tap it, OK.

Let's go right up here.

Let's put some nice leaves out here.

These trees are far away so I'm not
too worried about a lot of detail.

Want to have some nice colours
just bouncing around in there.

Mm.

Like so.

You know what?

Tell you what, let's take a little
Van Dyke brown on the liner brush

and down in here, let's just put the
indication here and there

of a little tree trunk
that's showing through.

Probably wouldn't see many,
but you might see a few.

These little details
add interest to it,

so drop in a few if you want them.

OK.

Now then...

..all these soft little leaves.

Hm.

Jack Frost has been through
there and touched these

and all the beautiful little
colours are happening.

Maybe down in here, there's a few
little things on these bushes too.

Mm, OK.

Tell you what, right here,
let's pull that down

and turn it right into a reflection.

Get a touch more paint.

That easy.

See there, make a nice little
reflection.

Some brown, we need a stone,

some dirt, all those things for it
to sit on right here.

A bit of brown and white,
we can come right back in here.

Add a little highlight on that.

And then we just tap in some
little bushes that live

right along the edge.

Wherever you want them.

OK, let's get crazy here.

Tell you what,
let's take some of our dark colour,

tap right onto the two-inch brush
and let's just put some,

let's put all kinds of little bushes
and stuff

that live right along here.

Just wherever you want them.

All we're doing is tapping in some
dark, so our light will show.

Right on down.

OK. We need a little water line
under this too.

Little bit of the liquid white.

There we go,
gives us a little water line.

Now then, we can take
all of our little fall colours

and we can just tap in, there.

Little bushes and small trees,

and little places for
the rabbits to hide.

That easy.

I hope you've enjoyed this little
painting because it's a lot of fun.

It's a lot of fun. It'll teach
you how to use the equipment.

Keep you interested for a long time.

And from this, there's a million
little ideas that can just evolve.

There we go.

Mm, maybe a little of that bright
red, that's pretty. Phew!

Very nice.

OK, now we can take the knife and
here and there, just here and there,

just scrape in the
indication of a little stick

and a twig that you can see.

Don't want too many, just a few.

Now, shoot, let's get crazy.

Go right into Van Dyke brown
with a fan brush again.

Right in there.

Maybe right over here,
such a nice place, maybe, zoooo....

Maybe there lives
some trees right there.

There's another one.

Maybe this old tree's dead.

He's had a hard life out here.

Let's see, so you have however
many trees you want.

Maybe that's,
maybe that's a birch tree.

Just grab it with a little
titanium white,

give it a little round pull,
just pull it.

A whole dead birch tree out here.

Whatever kind of tree you want,
just drop it in...

..like so.

Then we take our script liner brush
with paint thinner on it

and let's put a few little
limbs on it.

Not too many's left here,
this old tree's about had it.

And in your world, you put as many
or as few as you want.

There.

The old clock on the wall's
telling me

it's about time to wrap
it up for this week.

I really hope you've enjoyed
this painting.

As I say, it'll teach you
how to use the equipment,

give you hours and hours
of fun, relaxation.

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