I did darken the area and lay in the bushes just like Bob. The only difference is I didn't have a full scene painted into the background. I isolated the bushes technique. I do, however, have other full painting videos where the technique is demonstrated with the full scene on a canvas. I'm not sure if they are loaded yet but stay tuned and you will see what you are asking for. We aim to please on this channel! Thanks for the comment. It's very helpful for us to know what you need!
Bob would normally load the round brush differently. He would tap the bristles downward to load the brush rather than slide the brush as is done in this video. I will put it on my list to do a video to show you more specifically how to do it. It might take awhile but I will work toward it.
Great question. I am using a gessoed high density tempered hardboard from Richeson arts. You can find it here: www.artpartyunlimited.com/product-page/8-x-10-hardboard-gray While I am technically using a 12 x 24 in the video, I usually recommend the 8 x 10 to most artists/students because it's economical. I use gessoed hardboards from Richeson for every piece of studio work. I no longer paint on canvas unless I'm using hardboards with cotton. You can find one of those here: www.artpartyunlimited.com/product-page/9-x-12-cotton-art-panel I generally don't practice on the cotton panels because they are a bit more expensive and more precious. I can't always get them from the manufacturer. Plus the plain boards wipe off much easier. I hope that helps! Brian
Indeed. That is actually a preferred method since adding white to any color diminishes the color intensity. Depending on what color intensity you need you can determine what you use.
Would love to see you do it on a canvas where you darken an area and lay in the bushes like Bob does.

This was great! Thanks so much.
You are welcome! I hope it helps!
@Art Party Unlimited, LLC no doubt and just in time! I'vee got to paint a coupl of pics for mothersDay, and this has been 1 of my biggest hurdles.
Pretty!!!😊
Thank you!
Thank you. Just what I needed to have demonstrated. Loved your practice panel idea.
Glad it helped!
Would you use the same method of loading and painting with the 1/2 round brush? Thank you for your time!

@Art Party Unlimited, LLC awesome, that's very kind of you! Have a great day!
What exactly is the practice canvas you are using? Where can it be purchased?

Thank you! @@artpartyunlimited
Is it possible to use liquid clear with the yellow so it doesn't brighten the color so much?
Indeed. That is actually a preferred method since adding white to any color diminishes the color intensity. Depending on what color intensity you need you can determine what you use.
@@artpartyunlimited I appreciate you
Is it oil or acrylic?.
These are oils. Bob Ross painted in oils. Occasionally he would paint an underpainting in acrylics and finish in oils. Good question!
Lol- your hand blocks it!!!
Just a bit on the second one.
