Hi paul its a beautiful painting and its on my todo list however question paul i havent any of the BUFF TITANIUM paint you used to cover the canvas at the beginning of your tutorial so what can i use instead ? i have a selection of Acrylic paints could i mix up that Buff paint ? And what would you suggest? Many thanks in advance 🐈🐈⬛🐶
Great question Sylvia and one I should have tackled during the video. So the answer is yes mix your own acrylic to what ever flavour you choose. I would use titanium white as a base obviously and add a small amount of ochre to make a soft yellow tone. That having been said I've also mixed white with a small amount of yellow to make a pale yellow tone. That also worked well if a little brighter. Just add small amounts of colour as the changes can sometimes be more dramatic than expected i.e. better to creep up on it 😃😃😍😍😎😎
@PaulRansonArt thank you Paul that's great advice I have the colours you mentioned I will have a little mix up and hopefully get the hue I'm happy with 🐈🐈⬛🐶
My daughter liked a painting of mine so I gave it to her. I told her it had some minor defects and she instantly said, "Don't tell me. Don't show me. Just let me hang it up." I never once thought about my critique as taking from her enjoyment. Thanks for the golden wisdom!
That's such a beautiful perspective! It’s amazing how children can remind us to appreciate art for its emotional value rather than its imperfections. Happy painting Paul 😃
Paul I Really Liked The Edge Of the Knife for Sticks as I Have a hard time making skinny lines with my script liners .just cant seem to go from thin to a pointed end .what a GREAT Master Piece You ,I love Watching YOU and Try to Learn something EVERYTIME I Watch ,,,Watching From Lagrange IL. about 18 miles outside of Chicago My Favorite CUP Tazo's Wild Sweet Orange TEA ...Thank You PAUL.
Hi - thanks for watching and the lovely comments. I love the palette knife for those fine grasses too. And the script liner grasses depend on how good the brush is most of the time. I have a box full of them. About 90% are average. So I have a few favourites that just paint so nicely. Have a great week - I did a double take - La Grange - my mind filled with the sound of ZZ Top - Enjoy your tea 😃😍😎
Hi Paul. Wonderful video and great oil painting. It is incredible how much can be achieved with effort and work. I wanted to tell you that I found a few interesting things from my trip. As I plan to expand my palette with several colors, I found a few things related to the white shade. The Rembrandt brand produces white under the name transparent white. It sounds fantastic, but the problem is that it has zinc in it. As far as I'm concerned, zinc white starts to crack after a while and turns yellow faster. But other shades are on my mind, for example Gamblin and Daler Rowny have some great shades that I plan to try. As for an alternative to Led Tin Yellow I found a shade called Nickel Titanate Yellow Pigment Index: PY53. With a little experimentation I'm sure I can create similar shades that will work for me. I also wanted to let you know that I received two new brushes. He shares that they are natural hairs and I think the brand is Tiger. For now, I have 60mm and 3inch, I plan to get more. In the main, that's because of the novelty so far, at least from me. School starts tomorrow and I won't have much time until the end of May. Once again, the video is excellent and calming, and the oil painting is beautiful. Until next time, enjoy your week and happy painting. Ps- Always remember that after the rain comes the sun and the rainbow. That's something my family always says.
Hi Angel - Sound like you well into the science of art! You will almost certainly know more than me about it! I try all sorts of paints and agree some will yellow over time. Thats why I usually stick to Titanium white and tint it to suit. But I also like some of the Lead white from Winsor and Newton. Particularly for wildlife art. It has a nice soft tone that suits light coloured fur. Play with what ever supplies you can get. I totoally get the old family sayings. You dont appreciate the light until you've had a little dark - Bob Ross - Have a great week and dont work too hard 😃😍😎
Wonder what it could be.. I can guess that it may include words like, “no (I )can’t, (I’m) quitting”… when I say these in my thoughts my joy of painting disappears. I’m trying to halt, wait.. and instead say “I need a little break” and “let’s come back to it tomorrow”. See you soon Paul!! I’m thinking this is such a coincidence.. yesterday was a very sensitive, frustrating painting time. I almost gave up. I just think it was too much yet for me to tackle. Looked simple, it isn’t. I’m being honest and I’m just going to practice more before I open any canvases. 😌it’s good to be gentle with ourselves.
Yes Stephanie - being kind to ourselves is intergral to learning any new skill. There was a well know saying about accepting what we can change etc 😃😍😎
It is as if we are walking from the bottom of the table to the top, each step is important, thanks so much! Greetings from Greece, Konstantia 🙏🙏☀✨🎼🎹🌹✨🌻🌼🌈🎨
Thank you for your thoughtful comment, Konstantia! Every step truly matters, and it's great to see that you resonate with the journey. Best wishes from the UK - paul 😃🥰😎
Glad it was helpful Gregory. Yes, sometimes it better to keep our thoughts private and let folk enjoy our work. Hope you get to paint some more soon! Paul 😃😎
Oh, almost forgot!! Tomorrow our area will experience a total solar eclipse!! I think it would be very neat to see how you would paint a solar eclipse.. maybe a black gesso’ed canvas, with a circle taped on, and a sunburst oil painted around it.. a kind of like your Halloween witch flying over your moon! Happy painting Paul! ☀️🌝
Now thats a subject for my to do list - I've only experienced this once many years ago. It went eerily silent and the traffic outside stopped to watch. Birds fell silent too. Quite spectacular - enjoy 😃😎
Thanks Blake - my glass has always been half full so I'm definitly an optomist. My mantra has always been 'if they can do it so can I' - Have a great and positive week - Paul 😃😎
Paul , Thank you. I'm steadily building my tools. I've ordered a few bits and bobs from Preston area. I made a palette from some stuff I had at work. I think David has a few canvas boards for me, I've saved this video and I will try this. Once I've finished buying the tools, I'm going to get you a coffee for all your help and guidance.
Thats very kind of you. Starting a new hobby on a budget ( like I did ) can take time. I really appreciate your watching my videos and getting ready to take that first step. Can I ask a favour? I would be delighted if you spent the coffee money on a new tube of paint for your first painting. That would bring me so much pleasure I cannot say more - Paul - BTW, if you sell it for a million then drop me a coffee 🤔🤩😃happy painting
Great pearl of wisdom at the end of the video Paul! Even if I catch myself thinking to myself about what I don't like in my painting(s), I try to counter any one negative thought with two positive things I love about my painting 🙂
You are so welcome Yovette 🥰 Yes I too utter the odd cuss word about my art but I try and keep it under control! Havea great week and big art hugs back to you too 😃😎
Great work again Paul, thank you!! Looks so calming ....and thank you for your secret tip...you are so right with it. Looking forward to your next work,as always. Have a good start in the week😊
Glad you enjoyed it Ulrike. It looks like the nightime street scene is the winner of my latest poll. Maybe that will be next - Have a great week too 😃🥰😎
I can definitely say it's me! 🤣I always tell folk that the only difference between us is that I've made more mistakes for longer. So have fun and cherish those moments when it all comes together. They may be fleeting at first but oh so worthwhile. Happy Painting Mick - paul 😃😃
Thank you so much 😀Corinne - its on my wall drying in the studio and catched the evening light. I must say its becoming one of my favourites and maybe a bigger paiting one day. Hope your having a lovely Spring week - my favourite time of year 😃😍😎
@@PaulRansonArt It's certain that a larger size will look even better... For spring in France, especially in the Dordogne and Bergerac where I live, the sun is out and it's warm too! On Friday April 12, the weather forecast calls for 25 degrees Celsius during the day. Just imagine! And what's the weather like for you? With pleasure Paul
Yes, I think this painting would be good with a few more birch trees ( I didn't have enough time to do more ). Here, the sun is shining for once. Our garden has been so wet it's been like a bog. Now it's warm sunny and a beautiful spring day - my heart is filled with joy as it's my favourite time of year. Shame I'm stuck to my computer for a few days but you won't have a video for Sunday! - Have a lovely weekend 😃😍😎
You are very welcome Ken. I love painting Bob's big 'ol trees and trying to get them as realistic as possible. This one look real textured up close - have a lovely week 😃😎
How ironic, I’m wearing a buttery yellow top today layered with an open, small purple cardigan😂 I just love working with complementary hues-the effects are so stunning. I’m sure your painting will reflect that today! 🎉🎨🖌️
Absolutely gorgeous Paul!!!! You knocked it outta the park yet again, wow! The ending was fan-friggin-tastic too! I'm SO guilty of doing just that so 🤐 out of me from now on!🤣 Belgian draft horse won't drag any criticism publicly about my own work from here on out! 🤞 Thank you again Paul for your outstanding videos! I'm currently looking up that old recipe we used for deep friend pickles for next weekend! 🤭
Thank you Alan and you and me both regards to being quick to point out our failings. I get the feeling your not going to be so eagre in future - Have a great weekend - Paul 😄😎
I tend to spill the beans about things that didn't go quite as I planned, since it's part of my analysis, my learning process anyways. I'm quite new to painting still, so every painting is still a journey that I have something to talk about. But I think from now on, I should let people enjoy seeing my paintings themselves before I start blabbing about all the bad things. It's a good tip!
That sounds like great advise - hey thats what I said! But yes, its sooo easy to get down in the dumps with a painting. And its also a defense mechanism. I used to think 'if I mention all the rotten bits then I won't hear it from them' Turns out they liked my paintings and as I said they didn't see what I saw and didn't care either. So keep them beans under control 😃😎
We're more impressed with others work than our own because we know how our own didn't necessarily turn out as we planned, I think. I appreciate the tip in this vid
Great painting Paul. Bob Ross would have been proud of your efforts. Not much difference between you two. Have you ever considered getting a red fuzzy wig.? Or perhaps a perm.? On second thoughts maybe not. Loved it. Jack
Buff titanium is a great colour but oh so hard to get. To me, buff titanium [ apart from buying a tube which alas, not many art stores carry - matisse make an acrylic version ] is a mixture of white plus yellow ochre perhaps with very little magenta or orange.
Exactly Theadore. I found Daler Rowney make it but before then I used exactly the same mix to make my own using orange and ochre. Its a delightful warm colour for summer / warm scenes. Happy Painting - Paul 😃😎
your painting is beautiful its the wet on wet tequige i got to meet bill alexander in the 1990s im 48 now. i got early parkinsons but will get back into it
Hi Christopher - wow I love watching Bill. His explosive style of 'firing it in' always makes me smile. Another hero I've never met. I hope some of the new treatments for early onset come to the market soon. Lost a good friend to that illness a while back. She was a real charicter and painting with me at the studio. Her style changed from Bob Ross to Picasso as her illness progressed. We used to laugh and carry on painting. She truly embraced the meaning of not letting a day passing without making the best of things. Happy painting folks - Paul 😃😎
Hi Vicki - the Buff Titanium colour is a warm beige acrylic colour that I used to colour my canvas and let dry before starting my oils. You can make your own version of this colour using white acrylic tinted with yellow acrylic and a small drop of red acrylic. Mix them well until you have a nice warm colour - no too strong. Apply a couple of coats and make sure its dry before starting with oils. 😃- Paul
Yes thats a possibility. One other option would be to mix up some oil paints - titanium white with a little ochre and a spec of red to get a buff colour. Then use a few drops of thinners to make the paint into a wash = a thin paint. Apply a coat to the canvas and let it dry. The oil paint might be a little tacky but this makes a nice permanent colour on which you can paint. Hope this helps - Paul 😃😍😎

Great tip at the end. Don’t know why it didn’t hit me before. I’ve done that exact thing more than once. I need to stop.
Its amazing how often we do it and not just about our art. I try keeping a lid on it and think I'm happier for it!😃😎
Great painting! Great tutorial! Great advice! Thank you Paul!! Please keep up the great work. Truly inspirational.

Can you provide the details of half round and flat brush

Ok what is D A how did you get the buff color?
Hi Vicki - the Buff Titanium colour is a warm beige acrylic colour that I used to colour my canvas and let dry before starting my oils.

Can I tint my liquid white buff
Yes thats a possibility. One other option would be to mix up some oil paints - titanium white with a little ochre and a spec of red to get a buff colour. Then use a few drops of thinners to make the paint into a wash = a thin paint. Apply a coat to the canvas and let it dry. The oil paint might be a little tacky but this makes a nice permanent colour on which you can paint. Hope this helps - Paul 😃😍😎
Sounds ok
