Great seascape Paul! I will definitely try this one!

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

Hi Andy - Its a bit more fiddly than a standard Bob wave so put your own spin on it. I'll be painting more of this sort of thing in future. 😃

Ok, so I’m just seeing this for the first time and it’s gorgeous. The colors, textures and implied motion is sublime, and the scene is replete with the brilliant choice of added subtle value contrast towards the end. It seems like magic how you took your BR knowledge along with your experience at the coast and made a museum quality rendering. This should be gold gilt framed, if not already.

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

Hi Amy - Your so sweet 🥰but I wasn't that good at anything to begin with. Some of my early seascapes would make anyone a bit sea sick LOL. So start somewhere. Just pick a section of the painting and start playing. Maybe a nice pastel sky and a flat calm sea with a rock and water line. Use this to test colours maybe. Then progress a little. Its all baby steps but I know you'll get there. And Yes, living by the sea is wonderful. I get withdrawl symptoms if I go too far inland 🤗🤗

I appreciate the color choices you used especially to create depth and add highlights. Loved the fingerpainting as well!

@user-kp5xc5lj9v Год назад

Hi Paul, just starting out on my journey into oil painting and finding your videos incredibly resourceful, thank you very much. A quick question as it's something simple I'm yet to get my head around. at 19:21, where you say you've cleaned your brush. How exactly are you cleaning it? Some Zest solution then wiping on a paper towel or is it more of a deep clean? Are you using any buckets, or just a glass jar to dip the brush but nothing to scrub it?

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

Thanks for stopping by and the nice comments. Good question about brush cleaning. Most of the time I dry clean my brush. Usually on a strip of paper towel. This removes enough paint to free up the bristles for more paint. But now and then the brush will clog up and only a thorough clean will do. I've used Bob Ross odourless thinners in the past. Its absolutly fine for the hobby painter but as I wash brushes often I decided to look for something a little kinder to my skin. I now use Zest-it which is a lemon based cleaner. Top Tip: Don't be tempted to use white spirits unless your using regular household brushes. Artist quality brushes will soon loose their spring and grow brittle and you'll be replacing them too often. I keep my thinners in a small container with a wire grill to work the bristles over. I then beat them dry in an old kitchen bin with a wire rack that looks like a toast rack. Job done 😃

@user-kp5xc5lj9v Год назад

@@PaulRansonArt, thank you for the comprehensive response. Ok makes sense, so dry clean whilst painting then a proper clean either at the end or once the brushes or clogged up. Do you have any affiliate links to the cleaning grills? I’m guessing something similar to the Bob Ross cleaning bucket and grill for cleaning then a DIY solution with the toast rack for drying. Much appreciated.

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

@@user-kp5xc5lj9v Your spot on with your comment. I use a Bob Ross cleaning grill and the Bob Ross beater rack. I use a freezer bag as a liner for the tiniiers pot and a tough rubble bag for the bin. Then when it comes to changing thinners I can empty the pot into another one and let the last of the old paint settle out then use it again. Once it starts to develop a slightly sour smell its time for some fresh thinners. I didn't include any affiliate links to these products as most folks find inventive way to make their own grills and racks. Usually an old oven grill or a simple stick in the bucket for a beater. Just make sure its got no sharp edges 😮😮

@user-kp5xc5lj9v Год назад

@@PaulRansonArt that’s great thank you very much. Now I understand the process I know what I need to get setup. I’ve seen about the freezer bags to help make the cleaning process more manageable long term. Look forward to the next video.

I'm trying to find out what Bob Ross liquid clear is. can you help Paul just starting out and funds are tight great channel Paul I live in the UK and finding bob ross paint is difficult to find

@PaulRansonArt 5 месяцев назад

Hi James - Bob Ross Liquid Clear is a product dreamed up by Bob and sold under his own brand. Its a 'secret formula' of course but linseed oil can be used as a substitute if used with care. Bob's was a nice slightly thickened product which needs to be scrubbed on very thinly. Linseed oil is much thinner and so needs to be applied even more sparingly and often dabbed off so its not too wet. With practice its a pretty good substitute and dries slowly. If you add a little titanium white over it you get a similar effect for liquid white. But obviously just a little more oily so again practice will be needed. Hope this helps. 😃

@jameshodds8800 5 месяцев назад

@gregorystannard1652 10 месяцев назад

Just tried this one last night, fantastic job! Quick question. When I use the fan brush to apply the foam at the edge of the wave, I feel like I don't get enough white coming off the brush, or it starts to get muddy with the neighboring paints. I know from one of your videos your applying liquid white can be a huge cause, but I feel like the liquid white I applied was correct, any tips for avoiding this in the future? Thank you!

@PaulRansonArt 10 месяцев назад

Hi Greg - first off, thank you so much for the 'coffee'. Your kind donation helps me buy more paint and supplies for the next tutorial so many thanks. Now for the question about adding foam. The main principal is that a thin paint will stock to a thick paint. Hence taking care to not over do the liquid white which makes the very first colours too thin and nothing sticks. Sounds like you have that sorted. But subsequent layers need to be slightly thinner than th last so they stick. I use very little paint for my backgrounds. The sea is really scrubbed on thin so any highlights should stick quite well. With one exception. If your using Bob Ross Titanium white the its deliberately thick so you can paint a mountain and make the paint break. But it might need a dab of liquid white to thin it. Then it should stick. Its a matter of feel sometimes and that comes with lots of practice. And yes, even I mix mud sometimes so your not alone. Hope my rambling answer gives you a few pointers - Paul 😎😎

@gregorystannard1652 10 месяцев назад

It very much does, thank you!@@PaulRansonArt

@gregorystannard1652 10 месяцев назад

I tried a few more highlights in practice the other night, and think it may be the paint I am using as well... I am relatively new so haven't splurged on the Bob Ross oil paints yet, and the dark base does not feel as thick as it should. I'll keep playing with the liquid white as well to make sure its perfect. I am going to try campfire next, and may lay down the dark base and let it dry, coming back to do the highlights later to prevent muddying, until I buy the better quality paints. Does that sound like a reasonable idea? (Future video idea possibly, difference between cheap oil paint and better quality paint...) Thank you!@@PaulRansonArt

@PaulRansonArt 10 месяцев назад

Yes, the thickness / quality of the oil paints will make a huge difference to how well they work. BUT not even Bob Ross paint is immune from being too oily sometimes! One quick way to stiffen up the dark colours is to put them on a piece of cardboard for a while and let it soak up some of the oil. You'll see a dark ring forming after a few minuets. Then try again. It will take some experimenting but its worth a try rather than waste paint. Just paint a small sample piece to test your mixtures. Best wishes Paul

@gregorystannard1652 10 месяцев назад

I'll definitely give it a try!@@PaulRansonArt

@peterwilson3116 Год назад

Hi Paul I've bought some Bob Ross liquid white from Amazon and it seems very runny not sure if I've bought a fake product it drips of my knife, any advice would be much appreciated

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

Hi Peter - Liquid white is a very soft oiley paint so I'm not surprised its thinner that you might have expected. One thing to ensure is that its well mixed because it can seperate in the can. I use a long palette knife and get right to the bottom of the can. Then give it a good stir until your sure its thoroughly mixed. It should be like whipped cream. On my videos I use a small air tight container to save having to do this every time I use Liquid White as its a smaller amount. Another tip. Seal the can well ( the lids can be tricky to get on fully ). I pop my container in the freezer ( yes thats right ). This will cause the paint to stiffen but not dry out. Allow to come upto room temperature before using. Hope this helps. Here's a video showing how to test you canvas for coverage just in case ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6n7tj4gVO0A.html

@PaulRansonArt Год назад

Hello Khadija - I read your comment carefully Are you on Facebook too? There's a wonderful artist there with the same name. Is that you? If so then you have nothing to worry about. Adding wet layers can sometimes lead to a painting getting too overworked. I do it and so will many others. On more complex paintings like the seascape I try and get the main blocks of the painting completed whilst still wet. So a simple sky and the seascape blocked in. I try and get the eye of the wave done also as its a transparent effect and is more easily completed on a wet canvas. The added detail like rocks, surf and the glow in the sky are added a day or two later. I hope my explanation is understandable.
