Bob Ross - Mountain Oval (Season 10 Episode 9)

hi welcome back certainly glad you could join me today today I have a special treat for you I'd like to introduce you to my son Steve Steve travels all over the country teaching hundreds and hundreds of people the joy of painting and I've asked Yves to come in the day and show you what he can do in just a few minutes so I'm gonna turn it over to Steve and I'll be back at the end of the show Steve thanks a lot dad I've already covered the canvas with liquid white and before I did that I started out with a piece of contact paper with an oval cut in the center of it and you do that with a scalpel blade and you'd start out you know with a piece of cardboard or whatever and cut out your oval lay it on top cut around it and then you have this now they're gonna run all the colors across the screen for you and we're gonna start out with a little alizarin crimson that's a tongue twister they're tapping it into the brush always make sure you get a nice even distribution of paint and put a little bit of phthalo blue in that too yeah we'll just start right here in the center use a criss cross stroke when your strokes overlap it adds movement to your sky that helps out quite a bit so I'm just throwing a general shape in there try to let your shapes get larger towards the top rather than down at the bottom now I'm just going into a little bit of phthalo blue and a little bit more alizarin and maybe we'll throw a little midnight black in that nice dark color and up to the canvas again it's coming right around the edges of it and bleed a little down into here now way you've already got a dirty brush going to a little bit more of that same color and pull it in from the sides but don't kill your little pink reflection there that really makes it look nice on the paintings down okay I'm going to use a clean 2 inch brush now just start blending in the center of the water and move the brush outward use straight horizontal strokes stuff cuz still water always lies flat now wash your brush if you're frustrated with the painting that's a good way to take out your frustrations okay coming back into the center add a little bit more pressure this time and move that paint out and don't be afraid of it use strokes that lead the eye into the painting rather than out of it in other words make little half circles okay now we'll take our fan brush we use a little bit of liquid white on that too and why not let's get crazy throw a little alizarin crimson in it to make paint clouds today okay I'm going to start right up here as long as you make little circular patterns you're okay on clouds just remember that clouds are light and fluffy on the top and nice and flat on the bottom so make your strokes real puffy on top and on the bottom kind of swing the brush side to side like this you really can't go wrong on a cloud because nobody knows what a clouds gonna look like nobody knows the way the wind blows in fact of that same half circle well underneath that a little dark first looks like we need a little bit more liquid white to thin our paint down just recently I've taken on a partner to help me teach when I'm traveling around the country doing classes his name is Dana jester and he's really good and we just finished a class out in Springfield Missouri at a little shop out there and it went really well everybody really enjoyed it and we even got a good recommendation letter out of the whole deal always remember to pull very lightly on the top of your cloud here you notice when I was blending under it I hardly ever touched the top what I'm doing here is creating distance in the painting by bringing forth planes you can tell this is behind this and this is behind this because I saved the center area the dark rather than blending it out and maybe we've got one little cloud up here okay Gro go across the whole thing real lightly now I'm going to do a mountain and to do that I'll go into a little alizarin crimson a little phthalo blue and midnight black same colors we used in the sky leave that kind of marbled and get a roll on your knife come up to the canvas let's have a big high mountain today think this top peak real bold this will be the main part of the painting right here you really don't have to use much paint on this step either as a matter of fact you want to scrape it down with bare canvas underneath and over here just maybe a little one scrape it real good and at the very bottom now with your two-inch brush blend just pull it right out follow the angles of that mountain and don't worry about getting close to the top edge because it's the dark that's applied up there that makes it brighter it takes dark to show life now going through a little bit of titanium white it will put a little alizarin in there basically the same colors through the whole painting okay come up to the canvas touch and just barely pull it now if you use a shaking motion it helps and to mix up some shadow will take a little bit of the base color and a little bit of pression blue and mix white with that we'll have to shadow colors today so we'll be doing something totally different a little bit of dark Sienna with that same blue shadow color and a little bit of midnight black with that also okay back up to the canvas stroke of white here let the angle start getting longer out to the edges and as you come into the center drop the angles harder this is the hard part right here I should say the easy hard part okay for the last one just a little bit of highlight now we'll start off with that blue shadow color we made and just using the small edge of the knife come up to the canvas and push up into that white and pull out we might need to lighten that a tad okay let's try that again there we go and in that you want a little bit of that other color you made too always remember to push up into the paint that drags little streaks out it gets away from that split in half Mountain look little bit of dark this is just the base coat I use down the mountain originally okay a little bit of shadow behind this one always drop your blue shadow in first and then go back and put some more dark behind it to help bring it out see watch what this dark does when I put it in here okay maybe one more real quick highlight and that'll about do it for the mountain now we're going to take a little bit of SAP green on your two-inch brush just tap it in like before midnight black and phthalo blue work it in okay let's just drop some foothills in here real quick like the faster you do it the better it looks pull up with a clean one-inch tap you don't even need to remove the one-inch brush from the canvas at this point you just keep smashing it okay darken the color up a little and put another row in of course the plane would be a little closer and since it's so it would be darker tap again underneath this one and we'll throw a little bit of land in using midnight black and Van Dyck Brown get a roll on the knife touch pull exaggerate it okay mix that same base coat with a little bit of white and you've got your highlight color and with your big brush don't worry about it being clean just pull a little bit of that land out and go across very lightly now with the one-inch a little bit of grass on top of that land to break it up now with a knife and a little bit of liquid white pull it out real flat and put a little bit of black with it cut across and just scratching a water line real quick okay a little bit of yellow highlights this time okay maybe a couple sticks and twigs right there and possibly even a pine tree mix all your darks together for the pine and load the brush really full of paint just come right down over that other okay a little bit of highlight on those might need to put a drop of thinner with it and maybe a trunk okay I think we're ready to rip the contact paper off it now I'm gonna start up here at the top edge and just pull and voila we have it now to finish this painting there's a lot of things you can do but I'm going to go with a birch tree I think and I'll start it right out here why not let's get brave just using straight Van Dyck Brown putting rolls of paint on the knife make sure you exaggerate the curvature of the tree or else they'll look like telephone poles and you don't get any calls out here in the woods straighten it up a little bit his dad would say and maybe some highlight on that just using pure white with a little bit of the base color for the mountain in it we'll start right up at the top kind of making us see Wow did I do that it's amazing sometimes how easy it is to do this and then other times the toughness of it can also make it fun because if you didn't have those tough times on it the easy times wouldn't pay off I'm adding a little blue on the back of the tree here for shadow and you want to go back with straight midnight black and put a last shadow on it real nice and dark use lots of paint okay less shadow over here on this one now a little bit of thinner on your lighter brush go through that same black color get the paint almost like an ink consistency it has to be very thin in order for it to get on the canvas spin the brush through the paint that puts the porn on and up to the canvas maybe a little more thinner than that make up Brants come across the trunk of the tree gives it a three-dimensional effect and kind of pop the brush back and forth you get more geometric shapes and geometrics is what you're looking for on this particular kind of tree you only see these in Alaska this is a big old birch tree I suppose anywhere up north really when you start getting down to the bottom just let them flow okay bring this one right across the other tree see that vignette effect we're getting a little more thinner and use a little more pressure let them get fatter down here towards the bottom you don't really want to come down past the halfway point on the tree because birch trees only have branches down so far if you put them any lower than that they look kind of hokey no you scooping around on it too long okay right down here at the bottom now this is the fun part just real quick like smash in some stuff and make it curve around that's all there is to it and then with the dirty brush and whatever colors on it throw in some highlights make sure you stay in that curve and maybe to finish it off just a few sticks okay the bottom of that painting I just want to come in here and thank you very much for being a guest today they did fantastic what this young man can do and you can do it too we look forward to seeing you again and from all of us here happy painting and god bless you
