Thank you for your tutorials. I don't know why you don't have at least 100,000 subscribers. You've introduced my wife to doing decoupage, which she now loves. Your approach suits her well. Can you do a video specific to the different types of casting media, like pros and cons of each? I've seen you mention casting in a few videos (like this one), but something in-depth would be great.
Thank you, Jason! I’m so glad your wife has found decoupage, it’s so much fun! And that’s a great video suggestion, thank you. I’ll start making a pro/con list as I go and hopefully will get a video to you soon.
Wow. Just mind blowing. Never ever doubt your incredible talent. .you really should be an art teacher. The creativity you are unlocking is priceless!!
Thank you, Teresa 🥰 I don’t have enough knowledge yet, but I do enjoy the process of learning so so much. And I love that you all are coming along with me.
Oh it's already awesome; how can you make this better, no way. I love love love this dresser. You are way too modest about your skills and creativity. Please list this really really high! It's so beautiful already and you say it's not done yet!
Thank you, Barbara! I am still just learning as I go with these ones. It’s fun to take you all along with me.
Oh I’m listing it unreasonably high so I can keep it 🤣 That’s how I justify it to myself - if it sells, great I have way more money than I did before and if it doesn’t, I have an awesome dresser to look at every day.
This piece is beautiful !! I love all of the intricate details. The painting on the front is amazing !! You are so talented and have an artistic eye. Thanks for a great video !! Can't wait to see the second part.
Thank you so much, Gloria! Can’t wait to show the final result!
I. Can’t. Wait. For. Part. Two! That looks soooo great already. 😃 Interested to see what kind of knobs you choose since you’re a wooden knob snob like me!! Hehe!
Haha! Wooden knob snob 😂 Love it. Yes, it’s a rare occasion I’ll keep wooden knobs. I won’t say I haven’t or won’t in the future, but they certainly aren’t my favorite.
Fantastic! I can't wait for part 2!!!!! I am in awe of your talent!!
Thank you, Gail! You’re so kind 🥰
JAW-DROPPING! I mean for real...this is your ONLY 2nd time doing this!! I believe my mouth was open theee entire time!
Truly, thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, only my second time, but it’s all Bob. He does a really great job of explaining and breaking things down. Plus, you know, I paused his video and went back a bunch of times. What takes him 20 minutes took me about an hour and 20.
I love watching your tutorials. You’re so lovely. If you put your hands on it, I know it will be a masterpiece. After all you watched the legend Bob Ross. How can you go wrong. He would be so impressed by your work 🥰 keep making these and I promise we will keep watching. Take care love🌺
Wow, Tonya! Thank you so so very much for your kind words! He does make it so easy to follow along! Complete brilliance that man.
The dresser is stunning and it's not even finished yet! I watch your videos because I think the pieces you create are simply amazing!
Thank you so so much, Shirley! That’s so kind of you to say.
I am amazed at how your painting turned out. Gorgeous!
Thank you, Ann! I’m surprised, too 😂
my goodness you are a talented artist... this is beautiful. I can't wait until your next video. I was just logging on, and I said to my wife.. oh my lady artist is on, she is fantastic.... you truly are.
Thank you so so much! I really appreciate that.
OhMyGoodness!!!! I Loved the mountain one you did, but I have to say that this one Rocks!!! I Love the colors!!! I knew you could do it after the mountain scene you had done!!! I’m soooo Happy for you & all of us watching your amazing talent!!! 🌸🪴🌺❤️
Thank you so very much, Cathy! I’m just always so surprised when it looks even remotely like a painting 😂
You did a Phenomenal job!!! It’s not even a job, but your own artistic expression of Bob!!! YES!!!💫🌺💫
Thank you 🥰 It’s fun to take you all along with me while I learn.
Bob must be so jazzed! So while he used oils, you might try adding a wetting medium to your paint. There’s tons of choices….and a fan brush. Bob’s best friend, lol. Your painting is spectacular!💖💖💖
I actually just got something like that for next time!!! (Can you tell I’m excited about it?) And a new 2in brush. The fan brush is next on my list. The ones I have now just aren’t cutting it. Thank you so much for your kind words, Glenda.
Absolutely I do that! (Paint something, keep a while and then sell once I make something else I love more!!). You really did an awesome job! Beautiful!
YES! Thank you! So far there are only three of us 😂
Wow, I'm so excited to see you do another Bob Ross painting! I loved the first one and couldn't imagine it in color, but this second one is just so beautiful and I'm amazed at how the colors work. Can't wait to see it finished!!
Thank you, Alisa! It was fun adding a little color. It did make it a bit more difficult, but super fun in the end.

Hi, Taryn! I can’t speed up! I miss things. You are NEVER boring. Even learned little things today about the moulds - why you like using clay more than resin, why you had to use resin this time, different kinds of glue to use. The painting in the middle is sooo pretty! I’m very excited to see how you finish this dresser. Also, I love that you just keep making the moulds and placing them until you get what you like. That’s a 🤦🏼♀️ for me since I’ve always tried to figure it out as I go. This looks a whole lot simpler.🌸
That’s so good to know, Deborah! Thank you. And yes, I even have quite a few left over that I can use on other projects. I’d rather get the boring part done and over with. And if I have extra, that’s fine so long as I don’t have to pour and wait anymore 😂
Can't wait for part 2!
And no you are not alone with keeping pieces for short periods and then trading them...I think all flippers do it 😆 🤣
That’s great news, Tara 😂 Glad I’m not alone in the swaps.
Just watched Bob and I’m really impressed with your ability to make the scene your own! Your forest is unique not a copy - 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you, Candace! Yes, I think it would be much too stressful for me to try and fully duplicate his painting. He’s a master!
@@elegantupgrades Even Bob Ross says he cant duplicate his own paintings.
How fun!! You just blew my mind Taryn 🤯 😳 Girl you have skill! So happy to hear your JOY🌟 Can’t wait for part 2!! Thank you for sharing 😊kim
So glad you liked it, Kim!!! Can’t wait to show you the finished piece!
I agree with so many of these comments! You are a very talented lady!! And you absolutely are a professional artist. You may not feel trained, etc., but you have got what it takes inside of you. As you might say-you have all the things! 😃
Thank you, Jeff. I really appreciate that. It’s fun for me to learn and grow and take you all along with me on the journey. Maybe one day I’ll feel “professional”, but for now, you guys are awesome and keep me pushing forward.
Taryn AND Bob Ross.....thats a banger!...I'm in....see you tomorrow....
Haha! Yay! See ya on the ‘morrow!
It's absolutely stunning Taryn. Ever in awe of your talents.
Thank you, Emer! You’re always so lovely.
@@elegantupgrades Just honest.
Yesss! Trust the process! You do such beautiful work on these Taryn, and I'm excited to see part 2. Bob is a great teacher but I hope your confidence in your ability comes up because you're just so good! I do that too - fall in love with a piece and keep it. Occupational hazard 🤣
Thanks, Jenn. My confidence is definitely growing, but I think I won’t feel like I’ve really done it until I paint something from my own head. So I’m trying to learn all I can so eventually I won’t have to rely so heavily upon his videos.
And our occupational hazards are starting to overrun things 😂
So good. . I did a 2 color only, winter decor, on wood. Acrylic. So fun to do. Your doing great!! So proud. 😍
That sounds awesome, Laura! I love that idea. I really enjoy limited color pallets. This one was much harder for me compared to the mountain scene which was just grays and whites. And I like the mountain painting a little more. I think I’ll end up liking the overall dresser in this one better, though.
So much fun to see you so excited. Great job! Beautiful landscape!
Haha, yeah…I do get a little excited 😂
There are no words to describe this piece it's so incredible. So how many hrs did you put in this? You are so fun to watch, patient beyond befief. 🎨
Thank you, Patricia! Honestly the paint portion took under 2 hours. But making those appliqués took forever. I mean, you aren’t constantly working on them because you are waiting for the product to set up, but it still took a few hours if I subtracted wait time. I, of course, did it over several days so I didn’t get too bored with the process.
Omg 😱 this is AMAZING!!! I can’t paint on canvas let alone attempt to paint on a piece of furniture! It is absolutely stunning 😍 I want to be you!!!
Haha! Thank you so much! Angie, I’ve never painted on a canvas so I could potentially say the same thing 😂 Girl, just try and follow one. See what happens. I had no idea this was even possible for me until I tried on the Shades Of Gray mountain scene one. And I would definitely recommend that one- less colors is WAY easier.
It already looks awesome…can’t wait for part 2!!!!
Thank you so much, Jeanne!
This piece is an amazing mind blowing Elegant Upgrade!! The appliqués are absolutely perfect, gorgeous & add a whole other level of elegance to this piece. Your painting is truly stunning & absolutely gorgeous! You’re so talented .. it’s insane how talented & creative you are. Im so excited to see this finished ... I can’t even wait!! There is no way you can even tell that this is the same dresser except for possibly by the frame but this is an Elegant Upgrade on Steroids 💯💯💯💯 Absolutely Amazingly gorgeous & it’s not even finished. 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰
Wow, Lindsey! You sure know how to make a girl blush 🥰 Thank you! You are incredibly kind. As far as the painting goes, I just followed along with Bob. He’s the creative master.
@@elegantupgrades every word is True. Bob is the master but you made it your own also so that makes you a wonderful “gold star” ⭐️ student of his. 💞 That’s an amazing accomplishment & really courageous in my mind. I just love how you bravely tackle whatever you put your mind to & share it with the world. You truly have a talented gift.
Well, thank you so very much. I really appreciate your kindness every week.
WOW!!! You are gifted with such a beautiful talent
Thank you, Elsa! That’s so kind of you 🥰
Looks fantastic, look forward to next one , I am definitely going to paint a scene on one of my pieces
Oh yay! You’ll definitely have to tell me how it turns out, Caroline!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love this. I can't wait to see how it comes out.
Thank you so much, Fran! I can’t wait for the final reveal!
It's stunning already! Can't wait to see part 2!!!!
Thank you, Pattie!
Oh, that is beautiful! I am excited to see the second part!
Thank you, Deb! I’m excited to show you!
I sell my refinished dressers all the time! 🤣 I always fall in love with the next one I do and have to keep it. 🤦♀️ Love your videos!
Thank you, Anita! I’m not alone 😂
Absolutely love the detailed Embellishments. They just such a great job with painting.
Thank you, DJ! I needed them, it was so plain before.
Bravo! I started following u a while back because u dance to ur own beat! Unique! I see so many on TH-cam basically repeating each other. (Not All), I’m also so tired of overpriced transfers on everything! Honestly I think decoupage looks better than transfers, if u can’t paint your own art! Ur BRoss interpretation is so lovely! 😊from North Carolina!
Thank you, Kelley! And thank you for taking the time to comment. I agree about transfers. I do think they are beautiful, but not much bang for your buck. And decoupage is so easily accessible and almost limitless in what you can print.

don't think I will be up at 4am , but looking forward to watching when I do rise.
Wowza! Please don’t be up at 4am 😂 It’s a nice 9am for me.
So beautiful! Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
Thank you, Kay!
OMG Girl! This is so amazing! Can't wait for Part 2!
Thank you, Wanda!
Absolutely lovely! You got it going girl!
Thank you, Martha! That’s so nice.
You are such a brilliant Artist! I love watching, but I could never do it🙁. Beautiful!❤️
Jennifer, I would have said the same thing a few months ago. A few months! I found my biggest struggle was myself. But once I started actually doing things, I found I was pleasantly surprised by the results.
Awesome!! Can't wait to see the finished piece!!
Thanks, Ana! Can’t wait to show you!
You inspired me with the last one and had to try it. It came out gorgeous, great idea!
What?!?!! That’s amazing! I’m so glad you did. I wish we could post photos here so I could see it.
Looks fantastic so far , looking forward to the next instalment.
Thank you, Christine! Can’t wait to show you!
Remember to sign your work!!
Wow you are so talented. beautiful work and piece
You’re so lovely, Meg. Thank you!
So pretty. Can't wait to see the finished piece. I love watching your videos and your creative process.
Thank you, Mary! I’m so glad ☺️
Thank you for this beautiful piece. I love this concept. 🥰
I’m so glad you liked it, Stephanie! Thank you!
@@elegantupgrades welcome
I always use fast cast resin for my molds because it is so durable and is much easier to to move around! I do use clay periodically for smaller, more simple items for sure, but the casting resin is my go to! I have played around and come up with a proportion that allows my castings to stay pliable longer and I can continuously cast even if I am not going to use them immediately. The biggest down side for me in casting resin is the dang bubbles! It is so aggravating to pull a piece from the mold and see that you missed a couple of bubbles! And inevitably if I am casting an intricate piece and get in a hurry I miss a few 😭and have to either start over or fill the hole.
I have enjoyed watching your videos from your start and you have almost gotten me, the non artist married to an artist, to attempt the Bob Ross painting technique. I always stay away from illustration art because the chance of total humiliation is pretty high. It looks like so much fun though!
I’m with you on the stubborn bubbles!!! And I really hope that you try a painting! I’m not kidding, I was absolute shocked when I did my first one. And, if I’m being honest, still pretty shocked. There are so many Bob Ross videos on YT that finding one that inspires you and makes you want to fallow along shouldn’t be too hard. And then just see where it takes you. It may not turn out, and then it’s just paint, it can be removed- BUT what if it DOES turn out!!!! What if it’s amazing?!?!
You can heat the resin moulds up with a heat gun or hair dryer after they set to make them bendable and flexible....😉😉
Ah yes, but it’s never as perfectly malleable as fresh out of the mould. It’s so satisfying being able to cut it then.
You are very talented. Just amazing.
That’s very kind of you to say. I think I’ve just been getting pretty lucky in the paintings. I really have no idea what I’m doing, just wishful thinking while I paint it 🤣
Absolutely stunning 💜💜
I truly admire your courage 🤗
Thank you, Sharon. I’ve found that my courage takes practice. If I don’t kind of make myself work out an idea when it comes, I won’t end up doing it because I chicken out 😅
Wow, that looks awesome!
Thank you so much!
Awwww www Taryn My Dearest friend. ..You are AMAZING and Extremely Talented and I Am So sorry I didn't Get to watch yesterday as you saw I was dealing with a Huge lesson 😂 and I Planned to Start mid century cedar chest and watch This video on a break ....Wow I'm Just in Awww...I seriously can't Wait to See the second Part as it looks regal Already. ...and that Video With little man helping you is just priceless as when he's older you're gonna Have this to show him❣️🥰

Gorgeous!!!!
Thank you, Nichele!
Love love love 💖😘💖😘
Thanks, Carla 🥰
That is looking so sweet!
Thank you, Siobhan!
@@elegantupgrades I just watched your other flip that I hadn't seen, and remember watching that particular Bob Ross episode myself. Am now wondering what a favorite one of mine he did would look like on a piece.
Yes! I guess I am hoping you try this one one day. Lol
th-cam.com/video/HklPkQ0lSKA/w-d-xo.html
Haha! I LOVE that one!!! So neutral. It would definitely be a contender. I want to do an ocean one as well.
Love your videos thank you! 😊
Thank you! I’m so glad!
Bob Ross began somewhere. He didn’t start out knowing what his paint would do or what brushes he needed. Right? You do you and who knows? People will be learning from you! 🌞
It is fun to think that way, thank you for throwing that out there. I do love learning so it’s an exciting process to go through.
This is gorgeous 🤩
Thank you!!!
So fun!
Thanks, Candace!
Oh and I shared you on Facebook. 🥰🥰🥰
You’re just the best 🥰
Great job!

Thanks so much, Pat.
The first time i have heard the terms ‘short blend’ and ‘long blend’. Succinct descriptions.
I’m so glad it came across that way. It felt like the easiest way for me to describe it.
I love it
Thank you, Caroline!
Outstanding job for your second landscape! Rember what I said, each painting will be easier and better! (from a Bob Ross Certified Instructor ;)

Have you tried hot glue in your molds? They are very flexible and paint well. I love your channel.
Yes, I’ve used hot glue before. I agree that it paints better than the resin and is very flexible, but it’s not my overall favorite medium to use. And thank you! I appreciate that so much, Mary!
Awesome
Thank you, Darla!
Watch. Stay creative painting with Ryan O'Rourke
❤❤❤❤❤❤
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Bravissima🇮🇹
Grazie!
Maybe one or the other embellishments.
Well … wish my “flying by seat of my pants” turned out like your flying by the seat of your pants. Spoiler Alert … it does not. That is unbelievable, seriously. Can’t wait to see the end.
You cracked me up with your spoiler alert, Kim 😂. Thank you! I think I just get lucky sometimes.
If you put your molds in the freezer for about 15 minutes, the mold will pop right out.
Good to know, Carol! Thanks!
Oh come on, how can you do that to use, we wanna see. And this is only the second time you've done this, your joking right, it's fantastic.
Stay safe
Haha! Sorry!!! I did try ending it on a good note 😂
@@elegantupgrades yes you did, I shouldn't complain 😏
