I’m beyond grateful right now I watched Bill many years ago on PBS along with my baby brother who was Autistic. My brother never spoke a word his whole life but my fondest memories of him were sitting and watching Bill paint as well as other PBS programs. Bill if you’re listening thank you for bringing back some great memories
Kenny,
Thank you very much for your comments. I’m so glad you found us.
Thanks for sharing that really touched my heart!
We grew up watching Bill Alexander painting. Fire it in!
' the brush has only two sides.. that can be a problem '' he says.
Yes, he would like to have it doing more.. What an example for the rest of us this fantastic man is.
I hope he is at peace being looked after and has that smile on his face, like he wanted.
What a wonderful character full of life and aware of nature.
Much love to him and his family from Nz. ♥️
It’s funny I’m just beginning to read the comments and I’m laughing because of how you all listen to him. Probably many of you subscribers watched Bill like my brother and I had
I love his energy. Fire right in there and darker, darker, darker. Good stuff.
With his almighty brush!
Mr Alexander I know this video is two years old now, but watching you paint this very wonderful redwood scene is a real delight. Very serene and colourful complete with sunshine. This painting reminds me of my youth, when I would often spend time wondering in the woods with my dog. Once, I was wondering along a woodland track, when all of a sudden there were red deer leaping across the track from left to right and right to left. Worried that I was going to get crashed into by these creatures, I decided it was safer to leave the track and walk among the trees for safety. Having avoided more deer leaping around, I walked with my dog, and having gone about four hundred yards into the woods, I came upon a small clearing with a little pond in it, just like in your painting. As I stood there listening to the silence of the wood along with my dog, I suddenly heard a snapping of twigs to my right. Having turned to see what caused this sound, I was suddenly approached by a Stag, which came right up to within two feet of me. So I stood very still and hoped my dog would do the same, as I was very aware of the danger I now faced from the presence of this magnificent beast complete with regal looking antlers. This went on for about five to ten minutes. I was careful NOT to eyeball this creature. After a while, I plucked up the courage to slowly put my right arm out to touch the Stag. Suddenly He jumped slightly in response, lifted his head up a bit and stared intently at me, before stepping between me and the small pond, and within about a foot of me,He passed right across my path and wondered off into the trees to my left. Ho amazing that was to realise this Stag did not consider me as a threat to him or to his harem. Back to you beautiful sun lit painting, everything you skillfully placed on canvas was an almost mirror image of that day back in my youth approximately fifty years ago
Thank you for sharing your artwork with me sir, and for reminding me of the incident I described above.
...Бывают странные сближенья ..😊
As if it was yesterday. Such a beautiful, powerful moment. I can tell that one is a prize memory, your brain synapses have preserved that memory at the top of the list. I know exactly about that environment and have had the same experience. The Dogs pick up totally on your mood and actions and they do the same, (most of the time haha). When you get home, you have not only had a beautiful, memorable time, but so too have your pets. They too will remember that beautiful moment and time, frolicking through the trees and sniffing all the scents of the forest.. taking in all that glowing, bright green light and that moment when the Stag accepted you there. Wow..
What a wonderfull story ❤
You are a wonderful teacher sir and a great painter........
That's an amazing picture, just like the artist!

Thank you.
I've learned a lot from this lesson. Can't have light without dark and trees.
Wow!!! The best!!!
Happy New Year Bill and family 🎇💖
That's very beautiful ❤️
I really like these ones that are longer. They give Onkel Willi time to put in a lot more detail and demonstrate his phenomenal skills.
Michael, we wish they were all longer. We just don’t have many that were more than 28 minutes. Thanks for your comment.
Simply perfect and incredible👏👏👏
Thank you very much!

Beauty full

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 so wonderful! The water in the midle made it perfect!!!
Es 8ncreibñe la técnica y sensillez del maestro, veo que su obra día a día enriquece los detalles, una pincelada más dirigida a resaltar el color
... В одиночестве дереву было лучше ...😊😊❤
Wow!!!!
Agree "masterpiece"
Lindo!!! Suas tintas são acrílicas?
With the little "bird's nest" clumps, as he calls them, they look more like Cedars. The sunlight: your bravery test!
i wish I could have studied with him
Im new to watching Bill videos. What a talented sweet man. Are these oil paints he's working with?
Yes, Bill died in 1997, but his line of oil paints and brushes is still available online. The link is in the video description. His brushes are some of the best I've ever used, and the paints are necessary for this style of painting.
Wow
👍👍👍👍😁
Nice job excellent work very good example and great painting you have nice ideas Thanks you for the opportunity you have to learn drawing very natural landscape beautiful jobs
Why do they point the branches downwards? Most all trees point up from the trunks. What can you do if you have an unsteady hand?
👏👏👏👍
Muy bello , es en acrílico u óleo desde Costa Rica
Você usa tintas acrílicas?
Really enjoying this video. But could not make out if acrylic or oil. I’m a beginner! Would love to know???
Oil
NO MERCY!
Has anyone tried the Magic White?
it is the key for that technique, you should try it out! :)
Does anyone here know Bill's recipe for the magic white?
The product is still sold by Alexander Art, along with thick paints and brushes and Bill's own palette knife.
I went to high school at dead wood.😎👽🌞⚡️⚡️⚡️
I went to North Riverside....
He was actually a Sith Lord who used the power of the darker darker darker side to fire in his colors.

Lastima q no explica en castellano
He says everything twice. Sometimes 3, 4 or 5 times. He never stops talking.
I agree.....a little more painting , a lot less yapping
I love your videos but they are way to long so honestly who's got the time? I'm gonna have to hit the "not recommend this channel" option just because TH-cam fill up my channel with stupid non sense recommendations.
No one asked you, weirdo.
How many hours do you burn in front of the TV? These videos are not "stupid nonsense". How do you claim to love the videos and then say all of that? 🤦
