Beautiful as always - can't wait to give this one a go. Kenny you really are excellent at instructing. So many wet on wet painters on here don't give details - i.e what colour paints their using etc. Love your style, commitment to helping others. Look forward to the next one!
Hey man thank you! I really appreciate the feedback and if you have any issues or questions about anything I haven’t gone over or missed, please don’t hesitate to ask. Keep up the great work and let’s paint together!
Bob was a genious. Thankyou for keeping his wet on wet alive.❤❤❤
Dude - I came here for the hair and was NOT disappointed...nice painting and excellent techniques...subscribed and thumbs up...great camera too.
Flyboy! Thank you so much. I appreciate the support and feedback. Happy holidays to you 🍻
Thank you for your videos you explain things in a way that helps me become a better painter I appreciate your channel and I love your channel thank you very very very much
Well thank you very very much for checking out the content. I’m glad I can provide the guidance and help out. I appreciate you and your support! 👍
Come across your videos for the first time. Have watched two already. Thanks for teaching us your ideas. Lots of help to me.
Thank you! I'm glad I can teach what I can. Keep your eyes open for future tutorials, there will be more. And as always, if you have any questions or if there was something I wasn't clear on, please don't hesitate to ask. Happy New Year!
@@Kennysgreasypaint Happy New year to you as well
Love your videos ❤️that's how I started out ..lol....doing a great job👍🙏
Thank you 😊 Starting out is a great thing but to never stop and always practice is the real gift.
I really like how you show the technique.it helps me alot. I started a month ago with oilpaint.
Awesome! Glad I could help. What brand of oils are you using?
Winsor and newton at the moment
@@morgoth_7487 Best stuff! Eventually I’ll give Gamblin a try.
Thnx for the advice. The brand you mentioned is very expansive in the Netherlands. I pay for 9 tubes with 37 ml in it 109 euro's. Winsor and newton i pay for 10 tubes with 200ml in it. 100 euro's.
@@morgoth_7487 Oh wow! That’s interesting. On a side note, if you’re ever forced to deal with lower quality paint, and by lower quality I mean paint that’s not as thick; knead the tube a little before squeezing out your colors. Then place them on cardboard for 15-20 minutes before you start your painting. The cardboard will absorb excess oil.
Thanks for the tip on conditioning brushes! As a beginner, I didn't know!
Yeah I’d say about every three paintings I do, I give my brushes a thorough cleaning and conditioning. Not only does it help the paintings but it helps the longevity of your brushes.
2nd part as great as the first ,I have learnt such a lot and thank you KENNY for clear instructions, and the clips in-between are HYSTERICAL. Bless you
Hahaha thank you. And honestly if you’re ever willing to, you and anyone else can always send me pictures of your work if you would like it to be featured in a future video. Keep painting and stay happy 😊
AMAZING
Thanks so much. I appreciate you saying so. Be sure to subscribe and stay tuned because I will eventually be making a follow up video to this which will be even better 😊
Beautiful❤❤❤
Thank you!
Your trees are awesome. Alot of detail on them.this is the problem I have.ty
Thank you. All it takes is a little practice. You got this 👍
The round brush is a great brush for a first time painter!
Yeah I love the specific effect it makes for bushes and trees. Very distinct looking but also a very fun brush to use.
Good job
Thank you my friend
This pic. is awesome.,this video
in this painting has thaught us to be patient and let it dry . ThkQ Kenny. God bless you. Looking for more tutorial😊
Thank you, Ivy! Very kind of you to leave your comment and have your support.

Thank you, excellent teachinggg…. Just beautifullllll… love it❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching and learning 😊 👍
Very informative-nicely done. Thank you.
Appreciate the feedback and thank you for checking out the content 👍
I just finished it! It doesn't look as good as yours, but I think it's ok for a begginer. I'll send it together with the part 1 painting as well, thanks a lot Kenny ❤
That's great to hear and I'm looking forward to seeing it. Always remember though, just as long as you put that loaded brush to the canvas, that's what makes you a great artist. Never feel like your work has to be as good as someone else's.
@@Kennysgreasypaint thanks for your advice, I just need more practice, especially with the fan brush, I'll keep up the practicing
Your teaching is amazing... thank you so much.. please continue your teaching 🌷🌷
Thank you! With a little time and practice I know anyone can paint. I have a lot of ideas for further tutorials so stay tuned and subscribed. But you keep learning, and I’ll keep teaching. Much appreciated 😊
@@Kennysgreasypaint of course. I'll continue to watching your videoes,, they're amazing
Really like your show . Fantastic.
I appreciate the feedback. Thank you 😊
I like how you show how to use the brushes. Thank you.
You’re very welcome. I’m so glad I can show everyone that if I can do it, anyone can lol. But yeah, just knowing how to hold and move your brush a specific way is really all there is too it. Easy but essential. And with a little practice, just like anything else, you can do it! 👍
Wow!!! Wonderful👌👌👍👍👍
Thank you! Your feedback is much appreciated 😊
Thank you!!
Terry! Just a heads up that if you are painting along or doing paintings of your own in general, send them over and it would be an honor to feature your work and show it off in a video on my channel. 🍻
@@Kennysgreasypaint Thank you!
great teaching Kenny thanks dude!
Thanks pal! Hope it helps and happy painting to you 🍻
Thank you, Lovely!
Easy to follow as a new painter I still need a step by step instructions. Please do more videos.
Oh I have tons of ideas and follow ups for future tutorials. So many videos but not enough time is my problem lol. But don’t worry, I still plan on teaching the same way step by step. As long as you’re subscribed, you’ll never miss out when the next tutorial does come up. Thank you for the support! Was there anything specific I haven’t done a video on yet that you think would help?
Landscape with black gesso and clear liquid is cool.
@@markp1068 Very interesting to recommend that because my next full length painting will feature just that. In the meantime, if you need a tutorial on it, I have one here on this link below that you can check out when you have time 👍

Thank you
Great painting! You did an excellent job telling and showing us the technique which is lost with so many others on YT. You took great care in showing us the details with different camera angles. The memes were a great way to fill in some gaps. The one question I have is you mentioned that you didn’t condition your brush because it wasn’t creating the marks you wanted? How do you condition your brushes? This is the first time I have heard anyone mentioning this, and I watch a TON of videos.
Thank you so much! Brushes need to be thoroughly cleaned and conditioned with extra care in order for them to last longer and create the intended effects they can do for you. Every now and then, or after two or three paintings, the oils from your mediums and solvent will run down into your brush. This can create problems over time from the residue that builds up. Especially with natural haired bristles that are normally recommended for this technique and style of painting. Special soaps and conditioners are available online on most art stores. Even the Bob Ross brand has its own conditioner for this purpose. But regular ol’ baby oil can do the trick. Just be careful, a little goes a long way. Some even use baby oil itself all the time to clean their brushes during painting. But be careful because some have had different experiences with that. I hope this answers your question but I’m willing to elaborate more if you would like. Thank you again for subscribing and keep your eyes open, more tutorials to come 😊
Wow very beautiful work
Thank you! Very big admirer of your work by the way. If anyone else is reading this, you should subscribe to Alin’s channel! Highly recommend his videos 👍
You help me a lot. How do you manage to use such a small. am of paint on your paletatte I can never judge how much to paint to use I either have too,much paint and it makes a runny mess and wastes paint,or I have to keep adding paint. Is it okay to clean equipment with the acrylic paint in the bathroom sink? I worry about paint that I see that has small pieces of solidified paint building up, we have a septic tank. where can you find the paints that are labeled with the actual colors , not multiple variations of each colors name such as. Sap green. Sky blue. Mars black . It is hard to find tantitum ?spelling white . , what is liquid white what type of brush is best for you. I know these are a lot of questions, but everyone gives different answers. I like your work, and would like to hear what you prefer because I can see that you seem to choose what works .
Hey, Linda. First off let me say ask all the questions you want. And thank you so much for the support and feedback! So first off I would like to be clear that on my channel, I work with oil paints. The consistency and medium of oils will differ from acrylic paints which are water based. Now I'm not sure which paints you're using based on your comment but either way, what makes clean up the easiest is to soak up and wipe away as much paint as possible with paper towels. However do not wash oil paints or any oil based anything down your drain. I'm no plumber but I'm sure that would be bad haha. But just to be safe, throw away all unused paints, acrylic or oil in the garbage. As for being able to tell how much paint is enough, I've been painting my whole life and sometimes I still don't know how much is enough. I know this can be wasteful and frustrating but in this particular video, I'm painting on a smaller canvas. So I knew for sure I wouldn't need as much paint. But always remember, maybe to be on the safe side, start out with just a little bit of paint because you can always add more if you need. This will minimize the use of wasted paint. As for buying paints that are labeled with the actual colors, I'd highly recommend shopping in person at an art store. For example, the brand I use are oil paints by Windsor & newton, and they clearly have the label and color on the tube making it easy to determine. I hope this helps and I will also get back to your other questions on the other videos. Again, Linda I really appreciate the feedback. Never hesitate to ask a new question and in return, if its not too much trouble, please tell your friends and family to give the channel a like and subscribe 😊
Lubię Twój program 👍👍👍👍👏👏🖐️
Love your videos. Good teaching.
What is liquid white, and where can I buy paint with true names.? All I find are descriptive , like sap green, bright blue,blazing red.
What is,liquid white? Love your work. Good teaching.
Hello again, Linda! So liquid white is a thin white colored bee coat that you apply onto the canvas before you actually start painting your scene. This is oil based and requires your canvas to stay wet with this first coat throughout your work. That's why it's called "Wet on wet painting". The trick being that we are constantly adding wet layers of paint on top of other wet layers without mixing mud. Sounds more complicated than it is but believe me, with practice anyone can do it...I'm living proof of that lol.
Amazing. So bea
Muy bonito!!!!
Muchas gracias
Very great
Great job! Just started the wet on wet a couple of weeks ago. So much to learn. How do you condition the brushes, and how often? Thanks.
Thanks, Jim! Personally for myself, I find it beneficial for me to clean my brush after every three paintings. You want to get yourself artist grade brush cleaner soap which you can find on artists websites. I recommend searching Jerry’s Artarama as a good source. If there’s ever anything I’m not clear about in my videos, don’t hesitate to leave a comment and ask. Take your time learning and most importantly remember to have fun. Thanks again and happy painting 🍻
@Kennys Greasy Paint will do. Thanks for the quick reply and info.
What if the base liquid dries out before you can get back to finishing the picture , maybe I'll health causes the delay. How do I make the surface right to continue the wet on wet surface?
Hey, Susan that’s a great question! And a simple fix. Simply just add more of the liquid base but only to the area of the canvas that has dried. And here’s a tip- I usually paint on 16x20 canvases but in this video I’m using an 11x14. This also allows me to finish a painting sooner and ensures I will get the work done in one day. But I understand maybe you want to take your time with it, as you should. Depending on the environment where you paint, your base medium will most likely not dry out on you. It should even stay wet for a couple of days and your finished work will be wet for just as long anyway. So you should be good 👍
Great video... What kind of easel do you use?
Thanks! I use a Safari French easel. It’s supposed to be good for being portable but I’ve found not so much lol.
Did u appy liquid white on the canvas first
Sure did and always 👍
How do you condition your brushes
You can find special soaps made specifically to clean brushes in local art stores. I recommend a soap called the masters brush cleaner because it also has built in conditioner in the product.
Lovely painting - was this an oil painting? If it was acrylic how do you do wet on wet?
Yes, all my videos are in oils. You can do wet on wet with acrylic but you have to mix your paints in with other mediums and retardants which delay the drying time for acrylics. I personally never tried this method myself but one day I will do a video on it.
Briliant!! Just if i can ask what brand of colors you use they look very thick?
Thank you very much! I am using Winsor & Newton oils. It’s one of the thickest paints you can find. Gamblin is another good brand that’s thick. And you want a thick medium such as those when it comes to this technique.
@@Kennysgreasypaint i use winton series 1 and they are not so thick as they were in the past, maybe you are using winsor artist paints?
@@jimibasha So I just tried looking online now and I wasn’t sure of the difference. In a future episode I’ll feature an up and close look at the ones I specifically use. In the meantime, try laying out your paint on some cardboard first. This is will absorb A LOT of excess oil, leaving you with heavy pigment. Let me know how that works out.
@@jimibasha Actually upon further research, I also found out on a forum thread from Wetcanvas.com that according to one of their users, the series number indicates a price point because some pigment colors are more expensive. And then according to another user, “Winton” refers to their student grade paint.
do you ever think that you get paint on yourself and then you realize its just your tattoo lol
Nah but that would be funny lol. I've had my tattoos for a very long time now. Long before I started painting with oils so I guess I'm too used to them.
@@Kennysgreasypaint yeah. man, how long have you been painting , ppl make it look so easy. im wondering how long i have to practice until i get good.
@@johndoe-rm2yx When it comes to painting and art in general, my whole life. But this specific technique that I make videos for have only been doing it a year. But the truth is you’ll always still make mistakes and never be satisfied. And that’s a good thing, because you learn and learning is progress. Just be patient practicing. One tip that helped me is not just watching Bob Ross and Bill Alexander, but also listening to them just as carefully. I discovered tiny little details here and there that I wasn’t doing but made all the difference once I got the hang of it.
Are you using acrylic or oil paint
Thanks for your question. This is an oil painting channel but I plan to do a special episode in acrylics next season.
Ops I thought this was water mixable paints
Generally speaking, if you use the same or similar brushes, the technique still works. When you say water mixable, do you mean water colors or water mixable oils?
How do you condition a brush?
They sell special soaps that thoroughly clean your brushes with a built in conditioner. You can find them in art stores or simple search online. I give my brushes a good cleaning with them after every three or four paintings. I highly recommend.
Did you take any lessons or just picked it up on your own?
For this specific painting technique, I am self taught. But I sort of gained an advantage when I started because I have been doing artwork of all kinds my whole life ever since I was old enough to even pick up a crayon.
What kind of brush is that
@0:57 mark on the beginning, I have list all the brushes I use.
This little marks with knife if not nice, i am sorry. Ok with adding that big tree looks nice. Thank you
If you’re referring to the marks I made with the background trees, then it’s a good thing I mentioned that you can leave them out of your own painting 👍
I love the initiative and would encourage you to keep up the painting. But maybe a year or two more practice to really dial in the results before trying to “teach” people this technique would be helpful. I’m not quite sure you have mastered it yet. You definitely have knowledge of how to perform certain techniques, but the results on canvas are obvious. Hang in there and keep putting that brush to canvas.
Someone watches Bob Ross
And Bill Alexander, Diane Andre, Dana Jester, etc.
Nothing special ,!
