I’m so glad you included yourself. I’ve learned so much from you because you are not only a wonderful painter, you’re fun to watch and you’re a great teacher!
PAUL RANSON he's brilliant, he has taught me so much, Top man ! YOVETTE has a very good pace and easy to follow, Brams style is easy for beginners, without these brilliant artists I wouldn't be painting today a big THANK YOU 🇬🇧🐈🐈⬛🐶
I’m a huge fan of Marion Dutton with MazArt Studio and Stephen Conway of Easy Oil Painting. Two of the absolute best artists and teachers I’ve ever come across. Another incredible artist/teacher and I’m honored to call him friend is JD Wayne, The Rock and Roll Painter. JD has helped me reach what I feel is the next level in oil painting.
In my opinion, MazArtStudio and Kevin Hill are both highly recommended if you want to transition from the Bill Alexander/Bob Ross style to more traditional style and ditch your two-inch brush for a filbert.
Just saw an episode of Bob Ross, heard him saw something I've never heard before! He mentions what the little "bits" are for, i.e. to strengthen the canvas by banging them into the rear and also that if you coat the back of the canvas with water, it will really make it sit tighter on the frame. Never heard either before and never could figure out how you use the "bits" in the rear corners, Wild. Maybe worth a short video from you show/tell both?? Best wishes. Alan . Uk.
Thanks for the mention my man! I also would recommend Bram as well. He's a personal friend as well as a great Painter. I subbed for sure. See you around
Bram is fantastic... I also recommend him for new paintings looking to splash colors. Thanks for that Sub Love - never stop sharing your awesome talents with us.
Wild, very nice and unselfish of you for mentioning these other wet-in-wet artist out there! I guess the more knowledge out there, then all the better. Thanks for letting us know of these other painters!
I was tremendously amused by this ... if it is not amusing to anyone else, my humble apologies. But I found myself doing some wet on wet painting today. What I ended up with cannot be properly called art, but it was delicious. I made a couple of sandwiches, today. I started out by coating my breadvases with a nice coating of liquid white mayonnaise, then proceeded to blend in some Indian yellow brown mustard. Added a slice each of some titanium white Swiss cheese, several slices of some very light brown turkey, and a couple of thalo green pirckle slices, before topping the whole thing off with a nice orange slice of sharp cheddar and a second liquid white-coated breadvas. I'm sorry, i know it's kind of silly, but that really what I found myself thinking as I put together the sandwiches ... and probably will every time I make sandwiches for the rest of my life. Sigh. A mind is a terrible thing.
One of my favorite things about Nic Hankins is that he is able to do Bob Ross paintings the way I wish Bob Ross could have done them. I mean of course, hour long sessions. Bob was required to complete most of his tutorials in 25 minutes which made them difficult to follow. Nowadays, we have the ability to pause his videos, but Nic just creates the longer sessions in the first place, so we are able to follow him much more easily. Plus, Nic has the ASMR type voice that Bob had so following his tutorials is much easier because you instantly feel calm, which makes the entire process that much more pleasant. Also, I am a long time follower and supporter of Wild Creates and love everything you have done for my skills.
What a wonderful thing you are doing here Ryan, not just for me, but for all your viewers! I have watched you grow over the years into the great artist you have become. So many helpful hints and wonderful how to do it videos. Viewers are always watching for something new they can learn from and you have been able to provide that. So proud of you. Thank you bunches. 💕🤗🌹
Thank you so much! I have been watching gentle pickle Paul, Josh is a great teacher and does different styles. You of course! I’m left handed and looking for a left handed painter. Yovette is so practical. Can’t wait to see a full tutorial from her. I really appreciate your desire to support your fellow artists. Thank you again!
I really like most all of the ones that you mentioned, especially Paul. He's simply fantastic! However, that wild guy, well he's, ... awesome too. Blah Ha-Ha. 🤣😂🤣🤪👍 Great video, Wild!!!
Wild: "First of all, if you're a left handed artist - I'm sorry."😋 Hey Wild- Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael (three of the four ninja turtles), Pablo Picasso, Van Gogh, Escher, Kincade and Rubens would all like a word.🤨 Seriously though, don't feel sorry for left handed artists. Studies have shown that left-handers have greater access to the creative region of their brains than right-handers do.
I recommend Kevin Hill for landscapes, by far the best out there. Gary Jenkins for florals, the master. Marion Dutton for wildlife, her pet portraits are world class. I personally do not recommend anything in the Ross world. I would rather fail with originality than succeed with imitation.
RU-vid confuses me sometimes. I posted a comment here with a small error in it (missed a space and two words got jammed together) and I tried to edit it, but RU-vid removed it entirely. Strange.
@@WildCreates LOL I am trying to watch all of them. We have learned so much from you already. You are the reason we knew to check Michael's for canvases and what to buy and scored 70% off. We have had 4 local classes from a great teacher, 35 gets you a completed Bob Ross style painting to take home. Age 60 and a new beloved hobby for us :). I am looking for information on fitting such big paintings onto small canvases. Is there a formula easy enough for beginners to understand? I am just not getting how to fit that on a small canvas. I tried a 12x16 and the sky I had no problem with but Oh the landscape itself. Talk about big trees. LOL Do I try for half the painting? It is hard to use the wet on wet brushes for such a small area. Do I turn the canvas landscape or portrait? The youtube search is almost useless, type small canvas in your videos and it brings up so many and repeats them. Thank you for sharing your insight and talent with all us beginners!
The honest answer is practice ha ha ha. In one of my videos I mention using painters tape to mark off where to start and stop your background, midground and foreground. Try using that hack to help.
You sure this isn’t a who has the MOST hair competition? Lol. Agree with Bram as well as your picks. I don’t know if I would put it in a top five though. Maybe just these are other awesome artists whom you need to follow?
Bwah ha ha - My hair is my only great quality ha ha ha. There are a ton of artist I follow on RU-vid but they are ones I watch all the time and I think other should too
You usually have great advice but that was a huge mistake promoting Josh he's a very Average artist but gives incredible bad advice and has some very unhelpful techniques
I will have to disagree - I think he ha insightful tips from a different perspective. Not everyone will like everyone on YT... HECK a ton hate me for whatever reason ha ha ha. You can always pick and chose who you want to watch. IF Josh isnt for you... hopefully the others on this list will be 💪
