All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 1x16 - _track3_[eng]

Hi. Welcome back. I'm certainly glad
you could join me today.

Today, I thought we'd do
something a little different.

I really think you're going
to enjoy this one.

Let me tell you what
I've already done up here.

I've got a black canvas,
as you can see,

and I've created this black canvas

by painting it with a nice,
even coat of black gesso.

Just paint the whole canvas
and then let it dry.

On to that, then we've added
layers of colour, and...

It is still wet.

Right in here, I have Indian yellow.

And Indian yellow
is a transparent yellow.

It may look a little green
on your screen

because black and yellow,
as you know, make green.

Then we have alizarin crimson
on the rest of the canvas.

And I've just put a little
piece of masking tape across here

to sort of separate the horizon.

I thought today, we'd do
a happy little seascape.

And the big thing that
I want to show you today

is how to do a fantastic sunset sky.
Very easy.

I've had so many letters come in,
saying, "How do I do a sunset sky?"

And I want to show you
one of the easiest, nicest ways

to do a very effective sunset.

I tell you what, let's have them run
all the colours across the screen

that you need to do this painting.

And while they're doing that,
let's go on up here and get started.

As I say, there's yellow right here.

So I'm going to dip
my two-inch brush

right into some of the liquid white.

I have a little liquid white
on the brush.

Decide where the lightest area
of your sky will be.

That's where we want to start.

And just begin making
little crisscross strokes.

See how all of a sudden,
that yellow just appears?

And begin blending outward.
Just outward.

Start from the light area
and blend outward.

Mm! I love these black canvases

because colour is so exciting
on them.

It just sparkles.

OK. Just right on out, right on out.

Look at that.

See how the colour
just absolutely comes alive?

If you were working on
a white canvas,

you'd work yourself half to death
to get this kind of effect.

Now, if you were doing
a landscape with this guy,

you would not need
this piece of tape there.

The tape is only to keep
a straight horizon.

Since I'm doing a seascape today,

I would like for the horizon
to be straight.

It makes your seascape
a little more pleasing.

OK. Then we'll blend the top part
of it in up here.

There we go. Just making
little crisscross strokes.

Just back and forth. Little X's.

Little X's.

Like I mentioned in
one of the earlier shows,

that's the way the teacher
used to grade my paper in school.

She went across it
with little X's everywhere.

There.

Now, very lightly,
we can just blend that.

OK. See, now, already,

you have one fantastic sky.

You could make a sunset out of
the sky just the way it is now.

I'm going to wash the brush.

Give it a good shake. Hm!

And just beat the devil out of it.

Now then,
let's go into some titanium white.

Straight titanium white
with a two-inch brush.

And just load quite
a bit of paint on the brush.

Let's go back up here,

and now you have to make
your first big decision.

Where's your light area
going to be in here?

Decide where you want
the lightest part of your sky to be,

and maybe right here.

And then I'm going to take
the straight white,

this is titanium white,

and begin blending outward.

Never going back to the centre.

Cos I want that centre to be
the lightest part of this painting.

Outward, outward, outward, outward.

There we go.

Just straight titanium white.

Now, you can do this as many times
as you want

to achieve a desired lightness.

As many times as you want.

The only thing that I'd really
suggest is that each time you do it,

clean your brush,
be sure it's very dry.

You don't want to take
paint thinner up into your sky.

It'll thin your paint and absolutely
destroy everything you've done.

See, now, if you wanted to go back

with a little bit more
of the titanium white,

just load the brush up.
Good, dry brush,

and go right back into
your light area and work outward.

See, and that easy, you can make
one super little sunset.

OK.

Now, then,
clean the brush one more time.

I like to paint this painting
because it gives me an opportunity
to clean the brush and...

..splatter all the cameramen!

OK. Now, then, with a clean brush,

very gently,
you can just blend this out.

And then you have a nice light area
right in the middle of your sky.

Mm! Better put your sunglasses on
for this one.

It is going to be a bright one.

Alrighty!

As I say, you could leave this
pretty much the way you have it

and have a pretty nice
little sunset,

but we're going to play
a little more here.

I'm going to take some crimson,
alizarin crimson,

and midnight black.

Mix it together and put the least
little touch of blue into it.

Just the least little touch.

Now, then, I'm going
to pull a little bit out here

and take some white
and mix here what colour I have.

That's pretty nice. I'm looking for
a very dark lavender-type colour.

OK. That works out pretty good
right there. Not bad.

Now, then, we'll take a fan brush.

And I'll load a little paint into
the fan brush.

Just back and forth, like so.

And let's put a happy little cloud
or two in the sky.

And you sort of make a determination
here. What does the cloud live?

Maybe one lives right in here.

Just wherever you want 'em.
Wherever you want 'em.

Just drop 'em in.

There we go.
Use little circular strokes,

or you can just go back and forth
a little bit...

..like so. Just like so.

And maybe it comes right across
this light area.

That'll give you the impression
there's a sun back here somewhere,

but maybe it's behind the cloud.

OK. Or maybe there's a little doer
out here.

Just make a decision and drop it in.

I use lavender because lavender
is sort of a neutral colour.

You can put that in
on top of the yellow

without big disasters happening.

There we go.

And maybe down in here, there's...
Right at the horizon,

there's a few big clouds
that are playing around...like so.

Wherever you want 'em.

This is your sky,
so you make the determination

where you want little clouds,
or big clouds to live.

There's one.

Wherever.

OK. Same old dark colour,
same old lavender colour.

Let's go up here, to the sky.

Maybe there's some big
rolling clouds up in here

that just sort of roll around.

And I don't want to completely
cover that,

I want some of it to show through.

I'm just turning little circles
with the brush.

Just really grinding
that paint in there.

And there's not a great deal of
paint on the brush at this point.

OK. A little more of the lavender.

Maybe there's a...maybe there's
a little cloud that hangs down here.

Whatever. Just whatever you want.

Really freedom here.

Just make a big decision,
throw it in.

There we go. Wash the old brush.

And with a nice clean, dry brush,

I want to very gently
just blend this entire canvas.

This will remove any excess paint.

Just very lightly. Very lightly.

OK.

Now I'll take my fan brush again.

I'm going to take some
titanium white

and a touch of the cad yellow.

Just a touch.

Load the brush pretty full of paint.

Let's go up here.

Now, maybe we want to highlight
a few of these.

You can just tap in
a little bit of colour

where you think light
would strike here.

Just wherever.

Wherever.

And you can have as many
or as few of these as you want.

OK. Maybe up here.

Now, here, if that's the sun,

that's going to strike underneath,
so don't forget that.

That'll sort of... That's a gotcha.

Maybe, maybe right in here.

Now, up in here, we're just going
to have a few places

that the light's going to strike
some of these little clouds.

This is the bottom of little clouds.

Just little things
that are happening

wherever you think they should be.

There we go. But don't put too much.

Very quickly, you can
eat up your whole world here

with these little rascals.
Just a few.

OK, then back to
our good, clean, dry brush.

And now, just gently,
gently blend all this together.

Just blend it all together.

It'll make all kinds of
little highlights in your clouds.

See there?
As I say, in your painting,

you put as many or as few of these
as you want.

And you can keep working these and
they'll get darker, darker, darker,

or you can leave them quite bright.

It's really an individual thing.
Painting is an individual thing.

Everybody sees nature
through different eyes.

And the way you see it
is the way you should paint it.

It should just make you happy.

There we go. OK.

Isn't that a wild,
beautiful little sky?

Now then, now then,
I'm going to reach over here

and I'm just going to pull
this masking tape off.

You see, that leave me a nice,
straight horizon.

But I need to take a little crimson
on my brush

and fill in this area here because
there was no paint under that tape.

Just bring it right up
to the horizon.

Like so.

Now then, let's do a seascape today
with a big crashing wave.

I get so many...so many requests
for the big, strong waves.

The crashing waves.

So we'll do a lot of those.

OK. One of the easiest ways I have
found to paint little seascapes

is just take your little
filbert brush

and we'll put a little...just
a little white in it.

Now, you have to make
a big decision.

Where's going to be the major wave?
Where does he live?

And in my world, I want it
to sort of be under here.

So we'll have him coming down,
like so.

Now, you don't have to do this,
but you'll find

that it helps you a great deal
in laying out your seascape.

That's all you need.

And then, here comes a wave
over that way.

Now, that will sort of give
you something, a guide.

It will keep you out of
a lot of trouble.

OK.

Let me grab my old fan brush
and get him washed here.

I have several fan brushes going,

so I don't have to wash them
continually.

Now, then, go right into
titanium white.

Very thick.

A lot of paint on the brush. OK.

See there? Both sides are loaded.
Let's go right up here.

Now, then, let's make a decision
where the waves behind here will be.

And in my world, I think there's
going to be one right here...

..like so.

That easy.

And maybe there's another one...

and he lives... Yup, he does now,
right about there.

Wherever you want him.
Wherever you want him.

This is really an individual thing.

You decide where your little wave
should be and put him right there.

Now, when you're doing this,

the only thing that you're concerned
about is the dark area in here.

Er...back here...
Watch, watch, watch, watch.

This is so exciting
cos it works so easy.

Just take the brush and make
little strokes, like this.

A clean brush.

And just allow that to blend back.

And it makes the little trough
in between the waves.

Hm! Isn't that neat?

See, that easy. That easy.

But you want to save this little
dark edge. That's very important.

We'll do this one back here...

..just like so.

Just like so.

See, now, all of a sudden,
it'll begin making sense.

Wash the brush.

Now then, we come right along here,
do the same thing.

We'll add some white paint

and bring it right along
this major wave.

Add the paint, and then, very
lightly, you can blend it back.

Just blend it back.

See, once again, what you're
worried about is this dark edge.

You're not concerned with this.

When you paint it on, it looks
like you're all worried about this,

but this is the part
that's important.

This is the easiest way
I have ever found

of painting some very, very
effective and nice little seascapes.

And in here, same thing.

We just want to blend that in.

Just blend it. Blend it, blend it.

Now, if you built up
a lot of paint on your brush,

stop and clean your brush.

OK.

Now then,
a little bit more of the white,

and back here, right along where...

You have to make a big decision now.
Where's your horizon going to be?

And then you can just
start making...

..just little doers like that,
way back in the distance.

Far, far away. And start in
the light area and work out.

So you pick up the colour
that's on the canvas

and it automatically gets darker,
darker, darker, darker.

Darker, darker, darker.

See? Let the canvas work.
Let the brush and the paint work.

Shoot. I'm a lazy painter.

I look for easy ways
to make super effects.

Start in the light area
and blend outward, outward, outward.

OK. Now, then, we can take
some more white.

And let's do the fun part
while we got this white going here.

This wave's going to come here
and crash over. See? Tshoo!

If you don't make those
little noises, it won't work.

Got to make those little noises.

And here it comes, here it comes.
This is the fun part.

Grab it and pull.

That stroke there, the angle,
is very, very important.

Very important.

OK, clean my old brush again.

Now, then, the thing that
most people really enjoy doing

is this eye right here,
or the transparency,

whatever you want to call it.

So we'll just take white
on the filbert brush

and go up in here with the filbert
and just scrub it.

Just really scrub it in.

Scrub it in.

Scrub it in. And then work outward.

So once again, it gets darker,
darker, darker, darker, darker

cos you're picking up more and more
of that colour that's underneath.

Just wherever you want it to go.

Then we can wipe that off, clean it.

Be sure your brush is good and dry.

Cos you want to keep this paint
as firm as possible.

Now, you can do this step
as many times as you desire,

once again,
to achieve a desired lightness.

Now you can begin worrying about
some of the shape here.

See? Just...something like so.

Now, then...

..be sure you have a super-dry brush
and we can go right up in here

and just use the top corner
of the brush...

..and blend this. You can make it
so soft and so nice.

Just blend it.
Think about the shape.

Now, angles become very important.

This water is coming up
and curling over.

So we want to begin
thinking about that.

Now it becomes important.

See, you can pull that right out.

See? And already, you're beginning
to get that feeling that

it's coming around in there.

And it's just, just gently,
gently blending it out.

There. Angles.

There we go.
And then, right on back.

Mm!

See how easy this can be?

These big, crashing waves
do not have to be complicated.

You can make them complicated if you
want, and that's a lot of fun too.

But this is a very nice way of doing
seascapes that are quite effective.

And if you're after that happy buck,
well, you can sell these rascals.

OK.

And we can just keep on going here.

Tell you what,
let's do the really fun part.

Back to my filbert.

I'm going to take some more
titanium white on it.

Now, everybody can't wait
to get into this big, crashing foam.

Load your brush full of paint.
See, there's a lot of paint there.

And you go up here
and you just sort of push it.

So the... On the end of that stroke,

see, it makes all those little
foamy things.

Just think where it's splashing out
here.

We'll have a big stone there.

It's nice to have big stones
for it to crash on.

And just sort of come right on
around. Right on around.

Maybe it breaks right up
above there.

Right on around.

There we go. Add some fresh colour
on there to sparkle those edges.

They're going to be up here,
in the light.

All the sparkle there.

Right on around...just like so.

Nice, clean brush. Or at least
I wiped off the excess paint.

I didn't clean it.

Then we can blend this in. Allow it
to pick up that dark colour.

The very dark colour
that's underneath.

And that will create
all these nice effects.

OK. Then we'll take...

..a nice, soft, two-inch brush

and just the top corner,
and very gently,

two hairs and some air.

Two hairs and some air.

Just blend that.

All you're doing is just
blending that very lightly.

You don't want to blend
all of it out,

but you can make it to any degree
of smoothness that you want

very, very simply.

OK. Now, let's make
some big decisions here.

Tell you what, let's get crazy.
Just having a good time.

Maybe...maybe there's
another little crasher,

and he lives...right here.

See? You can put as many of these
as you want.

And then, just sort of let this
flow back.

This water...is just sort of
coming in right here, like that.

While I got this brush going, we can
begin showing some of the foam

that's climbing up the wave here.

You can do this with your filbert
or your fan brush, whatever.

This is where you begin bringing
all this together, though.

And it creates the angles
in your wave.

See, this is what begins giving
form and shape.

And over here, darker,
darker, darker, darker.

OK.

We said we were going to have a big
stone here for it to crash against,

so I'll just take the knife
and we'll use Van Dyke brown.

Just plain old Van Dyke brown.

Cut off our little roll of paint,
let's go right up in here.

And let's make a happy stone
that lives right here.

I don't know if he'd be
a happy stone or not.

If I had big waves beating on me
all day,

I don't know if I'd be
all that happy.

But, anyway, he lives right here.

Right here.

See? And you can push that wave
right back...

..just like so.

Now, then, let me find a clean
fan brush here

and I'm going to dip it into
paint thinner

and go right into my bright red.

I want this paint to be very thin.
Very thin.

See, it's almost... It'll run there.
It's very thin.

OK, now, then,
we'll just use a bright red today.

And then, go right up here,
and barely touching,

you can begin shaping
and forming all these little rocks.

See there?

All kinds of little things.

Maybe there's one over here.

Now, you can also do this with
your liner brush. Take your time.

I don't know if that's
showing up too well.

There...there you can see it.

But you can create all kinds
of shapes that easy.

That easy.

Then we'll take our...
little filbert brush.

And this water is going to be
hitting here and splashing

and little churn-y things
are happening.

Darker, darker, darker,
back in here.

Then we're beginning to get all
kinds of foam laying back in here.

Just make up little stories.

This is your world,
so however you want it.

All these little
things are happening, but remember,

this needs to come up if you're
going to make it look like

a little happy little wave
right there.

Then maybe...just take some brown.

Shoot! Let's put another
little stone right there.

So you can have that water
churning in through there,

you could have a little stone
over here.

Just wherever you want 'em.

Wherever you want 'em.

Take a little bit of the bright red.

And just let that fall right
over there.

It's a super, super nice, easy way

to make very effective
little seascapes.

There's a little bit of foam
right there.

We could even have a little bit
of foam around the base of this.

It's just sort of up to you.

If that you feel there should be
some there, then drop it in.

Drop it in.

Now, then...

..I'm going to take the liner brush

with paint thinner on it.

I want that paint to be very thin.

This is a mixture
of a little cad yellow,

little cad yellow, with white.

And then you can go back in here

and you can begin adding in
all the little sparkles.

See, right under here,
it's going to be bright.

So begin highlighting all these.

And the more of these you put in,

the more interesting and the more
life your painting will have.

But save these bright ones
for right over under the light.

And then, as you work away,
put darker ones.

Mix up some red and white.

And go from there.

See?

Mm!

These are the pretty little things
that show light.

OK.

Now, then, more thinner,

and I'll just take white

and the least little touch,
we'll use some bright red there.

We're making a pinkish colour.

And with that, if we get over
in here a little bit,

you can make all the little doers
over in here.

And just continue that right on out.

Come right along here.

Right up, over the top of this wave,
like so.

And bring a few of them
down and through here.

See? This is the little details
that really make your painting

very interesting.

OK.

Now we take a little bit of
a darker colour.

You need a little dark edge in here.
I'll just use a little lavender.

You need that little dark edge to
separate that eye of transparency.

Then blend it in a little bit.
That really makes it stand out.

Really makes it stand out.

And then, you put all these
little foam things in here,

wherever you want 'em.

Wherever you want 'em.

I hope this has showed you
how to make a fantastic seascape

in just a couple of minutes.

The big thing here is the sky.
This is a super sky.

Try it with landscapes, seascapes.

Just experiment with it.
You're really going to enjoy it.

And from all of us here,
I'd like to wish you happy painting.

God bless,
and I'll see you next time.
