Oh
God I love wine. I mean god, I love painting how great is wine
Hey, oh wow coming at you super clutch like always and in today's video we got something really special for you
I'm gonna show you the very first painting tutorial. You should start with if you want to do Bob Ross or landscape paintings
I'm gonna show you how to do clouds
Mix colors and create a beautiful painting from beginning to end and if that sounds like something you're interested in
Then you're gonna want to stick around because we're actually gonna pick it up a notch and actually make it a twine Wednesday
so go ahead grab your mixing palette grab a
Bottle of wine and grab your best girl or guy or if you're like me
Go ahead and grab cu bottles of wine because here we go
Now real quick before we start this video all the items colors supplies everything you need
Including the wine are in the video description down below
So make sure you click on that and see what you need
So that way you can progress with this tutorial and and dominate it from beginning to end and also real quick if you try this
Painting right here and you like what you did do me a favor and send me a pic of that art
I would love to see it on my Twitter or Instagram again links down below and here we go
My friends might as well just get this started right off the bat cuz I mean hey
This is the only true way to paint and have fun
Yep, it's one of those days
And
There we go
now let's paint the colors that we're gonna be using today to give you a nice visual representation will be
Phthalo blue a nice violet purple
Permanent red rose and a cadmium yellow and of course, our ocean will be blue with a mix of colors
And of course, we're gonna need a little bit of white but these are all the colors that we're going to need for
today's painting
So we're gonna be using a level 1 canvas and what I recommend is make sure you add an extra layer of gesso
so it doesn't soak up all the extra pain and we went ahead and added our
Magic or liquid white on top of our canvas. So it's good and ready to go
Just give it a finger-touch and you want it to be exactly like that. That's the perfect amount
the reason we have this piece of tape here is because this is going to be our
Horizon line for our sunset. You don't need this if you feel like you don't want it
But I'm just putting it for you out there
So that way you understand where we're gonna stop with our sky and where our ocean is gonna meet
Okay now like I said
we're going to be using blue purple red and yellow for our sky and we're actually gonna work from the bottom up and the reason
Is is because all these colors in this order going from the bottom up are actually less
Powerful, if you started with blue it would overpower purple purple would overpower red and so forth and so forth
So we're actually going to start with the bottom and don't give it too much
Thought let's grab a little bit of yellow here
And we're only gonna be using the corner of the brush and wherever you think the Sun should be
Make sure you just hit it for this panic disorder
I'm gonna put it right there in the center
and all I'm going to do is just take the corner of that brush and just do some light cross strokes and I want to
Make sure I leave some white
Gaps around cuz that's gonna create a nice little bit of depth when applying your sky
remember to leave some white gaps between your colors because this will allow us to
Blend colors more naturally and it's gonna add a lot more depth to your painting
That's just a wine tip for you
And I'm just gonna zigzag this all the way up and secure and that is basically it and let's just add in a few
Little strokes. Don't worry about it too much. This is a very light touch
This is just giving us a basic structure. Now. Let's work up into our red same dirty brush. Just wipe it off here
And let's work a little bit into this red and right there into that yellow get a nice vibrant
Starburst Orange and again, let's find some spots where we can fill in just go right over here now
Let's add a nice vibrant red here to really make this stand out. I'm gonna push a little harder and
put just a few strokes in here of
Separation. Okay. Let's even add a nice little bright red down here
Let's take a little bit of this and of course
Add it down in here. Now when adding color to your sky. Make sure you leave some gaps. Remember white is a color too
So you don't have to cover the entire canvas and all these colors were adding to the sky
So make sure you leave a little bit of gap there because it's gonna help with some depth effects
now as you apply colors to the sky it's kind of the same steps over and over so have a little bit of fun with
It okay, if your paint looks like it's going on the canvas kind of sparse. Don't worry about it
We actually kind of want that because we're gonna fix that with a two inch brush
We don't want a lot of color because that's gonna wreak havoc on all those clouds
We're gonna make so try to only apply a little bit of paint and give us time to work that two inch brush
Magic a little bit later on now
We can work up to our blue color here still same dirty brush. Now. This blue is very powerful very powerful
So make sure you start with a nice even
Light coat here and we're gonna start up in the corners here cuz it's gonna give us that vignette look, okay
so let's just do a nice little cross stroke here and
Work from the top and make sure we make those corners a little bit darker as we start to pull down
Towards our lighter value of colors and let's start to pull this color and mix it all in with all these different values here
And this is just a guideline of what we want to have happen
Always remember that our ocean has to reflect our sky
So whatever colors we apply to our sky we want to also put down
In our ocean just add a little bit of color and we'll get to this a little down the road
But don't forget to put the same color down underneath that tape
Okay, Cheers now
I'm going to take my 2 inch brush which has a little bit of the cabbie Emil and just a tiny bit of
liquid white that I've pushed into the bristles here and this is gonna allow it to blend a little bit more and let's see what
We can work in before we add any more paint
the reason we don't want to add too much paint is because when we add clouds on top of it
We want them to stick easily and we don't want to contaminate our clouds
So we're just gonna do some light cross strokes keep them short now
I know what you're thinking and this painting looks like a colorful dumpster fire at the moment. You know, you're not wrong
This is just again our basic structure and you're about to see some awesome magic happen with that two-inch brush
So get that wine glass ready cuz you're gonna be in awe
So let's start right here in the center and we want everything to be
Velvety smooth so work with our yellow before we go to our Reds
So now we got a nice yellow. Let's go over this corner here and just some short cross strokes here
let that under coat of paint work, its
Value and this is where all the blending magics going to happen
If you get any parts
You don't like go in with a nice clean two inch brush and work yourself from the bottom up if you have any spots that
Are a little harsh but remember the sky is not always perfect. So sometimes having a harsh contrast look beautiful
So now let's add some longer strokes and your very lightly just to smooth everything out
Okay, and if there's parts you don't like like the centerpiece just feel free to work it in there a little bit more
Hmmm don't be afraid to really work in that blending with the short and long cross strokes there
It's gonna look fantastic and you really do want it?
Velvety smooth now just to let you know your hand and forearm will probably get a little bit tired
It's okay even practicing for years with all those lonely nights. You've been spending alone. God high school was so lonely for me
That's alright
I got painting for anyone that shrivels with adding clouds on top of their painting add just a little bit of liquid white to your
Titanium white so that way it'll flow a lot better as we apply
So I'm just gonna add a nice little dollop down here just in case I have to go into it for any
Particular point where my paint won't stick now I'm gonna take some of this white over here and move it down over to here
So this way have a little section for making colored clouds
I'm gonna take a little bit of the spread add it in there and a little bit this orange and add it in there and
We're gonna start to mix this up
And this is gonna be our base value of our sunset color in our clouds
And I kind of want this to be marbly so don't over mix it. Okay
Now if this is your first time painting with man, you've never seen me do clouds you're in luck
I'm gonna be a video up here in the top right corner. Let's show you a cool couple ways to do clouds
That'll really help you out before you go on with this tutorial really recommend checking it out the biggest problem
You're gonna have with this painting is the clouds everybody over works them spread them out too much
You want to keep them kind of to themselves don't kill all the darks and don't blend out all the white and highlight
There you want to treat them soft and seductively keep them very close together in tight-knit
So that way they stand out against all those beautiful colors. You just created no with only the top part of the brush
We're gonna do small circles and only work on the bottom part of our cloud and push it back
So it looks like the clouds are sitting and our sky creating a nice depth perspective
So very lightly start off with some small circles
And remember not to touch the top of the crown work with your lighter colors first
Work off any excess paint you have in that two inch brush and we're gonna do some slow
soft cross strokes on the bottom of the cloud here
If you want to add depth to your cloud gingerly go across it and pull that paint down and into the cloud
creating a more full-bodied effect
This is a very very light touch and don't be afraid if you get paint on any part of the canvas because you know
It's oil and we can easily fix it very light touch there
See how much we just took off now you get to decide on which way your winds blowing if you're right-handed
It's probably easier to go to the right
I want you to a very
You shaped check mark from the bottom all the way to the top and through the cloud and this is a very light move
All we're doing is just kissing the cloud right here
And this is gonna give it that bodied look as if it's floating in the air very easy
Don't worry for you to get any patch marks here and again work on your light colors first
then to dark so this way you eliminate your
Contamination problem damn you just made some sexy clouds
Congratulations. Now you can stop your clouds here if you like them soft and supple
But if you want to add a little extra detail and make them pop
You can add a little bit of highlight on there with adding a little bit of liquid white to titanium white
Okay, and with this extra color here, it's gonna make your cloud hop a little bit more
So let me show you
how we do it with your fan brush take a little bit of liquid white and mix it with your titanium white so that way
It'll stick a little bit easier
And again, we're only going to be using the corner of the fan brush
And what we want to do is look for spots that we can add a little bit of highlight and give shape to our cloud
and all I want you to do is just
Tap a little bit with the corner of the brush and see where your clown maybe gets a little more shape from hitting
The sunlight now, I know our Sun lights underneath the cloud
But I still want you to add a little bit of highlight on top now
You're probably wondering why are we not adding highlights to the bottom of the cloud?
I mean after all that's where our light source is. It's underneath the cloud and why that is correct, and you should do that
Shut up, we're not concerned about that just yet
That's an advanced technique out there where you really see how light cascades around and painting on top of the cloud
You know to be honest is a lot easier for a beginner out there
So just play around where you think the light would be dancing around
Your cloud. Okay. That's right
I'm calling out all you prestigious painters out there let people have fun and paint if you get any
Contamination when getting to your blue, don't be afraid to rub it off on a paper towel
This will help you a ton and a lot of beginners make this mistake
So don't be afraid to you know, wipe it off and start again with the clean two inch brush
I want you to gingerly go on top of the highlights and blend them into the body of the cloud now
this is an extremely soft and feather touch so I recommend
probably practicing it really quick on your pallet or on a spare piece of paper because it doesn't take much to add these into
Your clowns now, let's work these into our cloud again. Just like we did before
Slight little you shapes and you can work it as hard or soft as you like. Get your mind out of the gutter ladies
Congratulations, you probably just made the best cloud you've ever painted as a new pattern. I bet you they look fantastic
Great job. Well now that we're halfway done through the painting
Let's take a small little break and talk about our delicious wine
Our wine for today is a merlot from black stone. It is carefully crafted
Have a smooth style consistent balance and perfect for any occasion from dinner to parties for an hour occasion right here
Hey
it's perfect for painting and drinking black stones Merlot shows rich blackberry plum and
Raspberry flavors with a hint of vanilla and toasted French bread definitely don't taste any French bread
But I definitely taste some fruit flavors there the hell puts French bread on a bottle
Oh, yes
I taste so much French bread has nothing to do with raspberry or plums or even these sweets sweets battery of the woman
Donor I was going with that. Stop drinking. Hey remember painting should be fun
So drink up paint responsibly and let's continue this awesome painting. Oh, yeah
Just tasting all that French bread flavor in this wine now that we're all sauced up and ready with crews
We can remove our paint here very softly
What we want to do is close this gap between our sky and our ocean and to do that
We're gonna add a little bit of liquid white here cuz this is bare canvas
just take your 1 inch brush and just slowly work the liquid white up and tear and don't worry if you get a little
cross-contamination now
I used a big piece of tape here just so it was easier for you to see but I
recommend using a very thin piece of masking tape or no masking tape at all because you know
You don't really need it here when you fill it in that horizon line with liquid white
You want to throw on the base same structure with our colors the yellows the Reds the purples and the blues
But just for a quick note don't overwork or put too much color in here
Cuz a little bit of color will go a long way ok
The water is where you get to have a little bit of fun
You can put different multitudes of colors in different spots because that's gonna add different depths and dimensions
so don't be afraid to add a little purple here and there or a little bit of red here and there cuz they're gonna blend
Beautifully with those other colors and they're gonna add some deep and dark rich spots to our ocean
Alright have a little bit of fun now with a clean pallet knife here. We get to add some water ripples
Just pull your paint flat and cut gingerly across it add a little ripple here
And what we want to do is follow that line of what we had and just cut in
evenly across the water here little white caps that are kind of
cascading down and around you can use the top part of the knife and the bottom part of the knife and it's really up to
You how much of an impact?
Oh look, which is going to add texture to it that you want to come off
the only note I'm gonna give you is you kind of want to make it look a little bit like a triangle as
If it's coming down to the center point here
and these are gonna be our little white caps as they
Go across and have a little fun and use just the edge of the blade to cut things across here
It's gonna add a little bit of that fun
Detail generally better to have a bigger grouping back here because of the perspective of it being farther away
More of the white caps would be closer together
Now the moral white caps
You add the more emotion in that ocean and that's really up to you. If you want to have a really, you know
Raging ocean or you want more calm?
so I would start out with just a few white caps and then kind of step back and see how you feel about it because
You can always add more but it's one hell of a time taking them away. Okay?
now if you don't like the rough ocean look
You can take a very clean two inch brush and gingerly just feather this all in it's really up to you now
Please note the paint will spread around adding more white caps, but it will make everything look a lot softer
So, please note that on the sides here. You're going to get more added white
But you can cover that up by putting a nice little frame or working it out with your two-inch brush again
which I'll show you here in a second, but just very
Lightly go across and if you don't like these details right here just slowly work them out
Blend them in just like that
See how easy and awesome
That painting was it gives you the perfect balance of mixing colors making clouds and making a complete landscape from beginning to end
And we do that all while enjoying
Our nice bottle of wine and hopefully you got to share this night with somebody special to you
Just like I got to share it with somebody special to me. You're so pretty now
I'm gonna finish up my bottle here and enjoy the rest of my night and I hope you created something beautiful
And special out there
And if you did don't forget to send it to me on my Twitter or Instagram
And cheers to all of you awesome and beautiful people out there and always keep on painting and of course. Peace
Out of wine I'm out of wine I guess want to do another painting in the future
