in a world full of panic chaos worry
there's only one man who I feel can
reunite us all hello I'm Bob burrows and
I'd like to welcome you to the 29 joy of
painting series I feel like with
everything going on right now we could
all use a little bit of positivity and
there's literally nothing more positive
it is whorl than mr. Bob Rost and beat
the devil out of it now I've done a few
Bob Ross careers in the past but this
time there's a twist I'm going to be
following Bob Ross's tutorial with none
other than alcohol markers and maybe a
few paint markers all right so the title
of this episode is called island in the
wilderness season 29 episode 1 hello I'm
Bob rose and I'd like to welcome you to
the 29th joy of painting series and so
starting off of course I'm not using a
canvas today instead I am using a
whoo-hoo marker paper in 120 pounds and
I'm also gonna be using some
alcohol-based markers let's get started
I thought today would just do a very
simple little scene that hope you'll
enjoy let's start oh we left our brush
and a touch of the lizard in crimson we
just load a little bit right into the
bristles put a little paint out tap the
bristles firmly a kiss old brush and
just making little XS little crisscross
strokes we're just very quickly dropped
in just a little worn part in the sky
here ok so starting off I'm just gonna
do a nice wash of peak
nothing too crazy just like a nice wash
now the reason I'm not doing X's is
because markers work differently like it
would be too hard for me to like do the
Hat so I'm just gonna do one fluid
motion and boom step one is already done
it's already looking like a masterpiece
once again just have a little color into
it and let's go back up here and still
using a little crisscross strokes X's
it's all they are new X's we'll just
apply a little bit of a sailor blue
something about like so the stringy
cloud just moves right there in the
brush and that easy alright so now we're
gonna create this sky and have to be
very careful with this because pink and
blue do not intertwine with each other's
gotta be very careful to not mix them
because it'll turn brown so have to be
very careful they don't touch yeah let's
have some water in this painting I love
water and it's very easy to paint in
this style still water is always level I
think they will have still water so pour
from the outside in oh shoot that water
oh shoot okay so this brings us to our
first problem I wanna say problem our
first difference when it comes to oil
versus markers oil paints drying time is
anywhere from minutes to months of
drying in fact my paint palette from
last video is still not dry
[Music]
while on the other hand we have markers
which dry instantly oh heck yeah the
chisel technique works so good for this
[Music]
and boom I think we're off to a pretty
good start and I'm just putting a little
pression blue in each corner to darken
it and then the most fun part of this
whole technique you're gonna shake off
the excess and just beat it down the
ladder that's really the most fun part
of it take a little white a little bit
of the Blue Chair watch it it's fun
let's take the corner of the brush and
just pull down something about like so
straight down straight down I'll make it
look like little distant trees live far
back in the distance and we'll come back
and let's put another little layer in
here just touching and pulling downward
that's all we're doing
[Music]
I just want to say I'm like working an
extreme hyperspeed right now that's the
thing with markers is you have to work
so fast because once it's dry it's dry
you know your best bet of blending is
when it's still wet
[Music]
but take some black and maybe in our
world their lives does now some little
trees back in here now these are a
little closer you're seeing a little
more detail a little more distinct oh
he's just like going all in there you
know with all the the trees some that
same color we'll take a 2 inch brush
touch and pull down just pull straight
down it's the most important we go
straight down something like so very
lightly go across ok there's no going
back
one
[Music]
oh my gosh that was so incredibly
stressful let's put a little waterline
for that we use a liquid white coming
out very flat glad as you can get it cut
across okay then we can go right up in
here and we can just drop in just a
little waterline it's just a happy
little water man who lives back in here
somewhere we don't know where it is
imagination is its it's like any other
muscle in your body or lucky at muscle
anybody the more you practice the better
it becomes this actually brings us to
the next difference between markers and
oil paint with oil paint you can put
highlights directly on top of dark
colors now with markers obviously you
can't put light colors on top of dark
colors and expect it to build a
highlight so I'm gonna have to switch up
markers and go to
[Music]
paint markers paint markers are really
really nice it's add a little highlight
here
it's like soaking into the paper yeah
that is looking so good
[Music]
and boom highlight is done let's have a
little evergreen trees he lives right
there see just make a line take the
corner the brush make a touch make
another one you just sort of work from
the center out there it goes it's easier
to do them fast than it is slow though
here they come just what happened one
more in there there we go I have a
little family of trees you know if
you've painted with me before I think
everybody should have a friend even a
tree even a tree needs a friend oh my
heart on that note let's create some
happy little trees now I don't have a
fan brush but I'm gonna literally turn
my marker over and like stamp this side
of it to kind of replicate that next
thing that he does I think that might
work it's working oh my gosh that should
tell you something like Bob is such a
good teacher that even like in markers a
completely different mediums I feel like
I'm still killing it go Bob alright so
next up cuz we don't make mistakes here
we have happy accidents take the big
brush pull down straight down once again
and then go across and we have the
instant reflections I just use that same
fan brush it has that color we made the
tree out of it and I'll go through CAD
yellow and a little yellow ocher let's
go back put some highlights on our
little evergreen trees there to go again
I'm gonna go in with a paint marker to
try to build up some highlights and give
the painting some dimension alright so
same situation I'm gonna go in and like
just like dot it oh this is a lot harder
I don't have to use my finger to kind of
diffuse it it kind of looks like a
Christmas tree I love it
god I love Bob Ross he just brings so
much joy to my life we got to figure out
something to do on the other side now
let's have some fun let's have some fun
you know if you painted with me before I
like I like all the big trees take the
corner the old two-inch brush and let's
just begin laying in a basic shape here
tree it lives right there all right tell
you what maybe let's do something about
like kiss now I want to put some leaves
on here use chest the corner the brush
just the corner of the brush where
everyone wherever you really are the
Creator on this piece of canvas you can
do anything so this might be a little
bit tricky little tricky but I'm going
to replicate the shadows here here crap
[Music]
honestly these paint markers are a
godsend don't you think Bowie with our
brush we were making the bushes with and
we'll settle those right down into the
painting there now see have they become
part of the painting there we go
shoot we had such a places that I'd have
to go fish it there I like to fish but
I'm not a very good fisherman I catch a
little fish and take the hook carefully
out of his mouth and put a bandaid on
him little CPR pat him on 2 2 2 and put
him back in the water go back on again
another day this man is so adorable and
precious so if you didn't catch that the
next step is basically just to add a
bunch of highlights all over the trees
kind of build a foreground kind of build
into the background and I'm using that
same technique of getting the paint
marker and kind of dabbing the ink
that's inside of it onto the trees to
kind of build up like that nice shadow
since I absolutely cannot get it with
the alcohol markers and while I was
doing this I was thinking to myself I'm
basically creating a Bob Ross art piece
with no oil paint with no paint brushes
like this is a lot harder than I
originally thought to be honest
[Music]
you have something on the other side to
pass now let's go on this side
once again them take a one inch brush
notice that it's straight down and I'm
pulling it in one direction it's most
most important that loads a lot of paint
and see it rounds one edge you want to
turn it put that rounded edge to the top
now we go right up in here no pressure
hardly I just did enough to get the
brush to touch the canvas and we begin
working on shape and form and we create
a bush or a tree that lives right there
that's all there is to it
put a little bright red on there maybe
here's one right here
oh yeah let's get little I don't know if
you can see them I got a little red
flowers on a tip hmm sneaky there I'm
gonna put a little sticklers right there
a little tree let's come down here we'll
make a few more in here wherever you
decide where they live god I can't
believe you created like that whole
entire thing in 25 minutes this is
actually gonna be really hard because
like there is no way I'm able to make
that touching barely let it graze let it
graze that easy pattern with markers
there we go
[Music]
I guess I'll go in with like a white
color and just like dab ooh this is
really difficult I'm gonna add a little
stick right here careful with it nothing
too crazy it's weird how the brown is
darker than the actual like dark grey
that's weird
go in add a little bit of sticks here
little somethin'-somethin hair and
lastly I wanted to clean it up as best
as I could so I spent a long time
blending out the sky I added a little
bit more details to make it look like it
was less done with you know markers and
a little bit reluctantly here is the
final design I am incredibly proud of
the reflections this little area right
here I think I did a great job the trees
it was very hard to build up especially
not using oil but I love Bob Ross and I
truly just needed to have some relaxing
fun mess around time anyway guys thank
you so much again for watching please
stay safe please take care and I will
gladly see you guys next video bye until
then from all of us here I'd like to
wish you happy painting and god bless my
friend
[Music]
