All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 2x10 - _track3_[eng]

Welcome back.
I'm glad to see you today.

I thought today we'd do a fantastic
little painting that's...

it's a lot of fun -
I think you'll enjoy it.

Let's start off and have them
graphically run all the colours

across the screen that you need to
do the painting

that I'm going to do up here today.

They'll come across your screen,
starting with the Titanium White

and working around in the same order
that I have them on my palette.

Now if you already have a way to
set your palette up,

don't change it just
because I have mine.

But try to set your palette up
the same way each time so you don't

have to, you don't have to waste a
lot of time looking for colour.

You always know where it's at.

So let's get started.

I've already covered the canvas with
a thin even coat of magic white.

It's wet and slick and ready to go.

Start with a little
bit of Prussian Blue.

I'm just going to work
that into the brush

and maybe today we'll make some
little streaky clouds.

I'm just going to start just making
little crisscross strokes,

sort of like that.

And we'll just let 'em go back.

Now, I want them
to be darker up here than back here

so start at the top
and work downward.

And maybe...

Maybe there is one just there,

they're sort of going back and
forth.

Keep it little bit darker in colour
than you want it to be

when you finish because we're going
to blend a lot

and it will lighten in value.

And maybe there's another one

wherever, wherever,

just drop them in.

Maybe we'll do a little
farm scene today.

We film in Indiana, which is
a beautiful, beautiful state

and has a lot of farms so we are
going to do happy little farm scene.

OK, now we've got the colour on the
canvas, a little darker right there.

There.

OK, now I'm going to wash my brush

and once again we wash our brushes
with odourless thinner,

paint thinner.

Shake off the excess.

And then just
beat the devil out of them.

Now then,
I'll go right into Titanium White.

Titanium White, I'll tell you what,
let's put the least little touch

of Permanent Red into it, just
so it has a slight pinkish glow.

Load the brush full of paint.

Let's go up to the canvas here.

And in between these areas now,

I'm going to begin just doing
this with a little colour

so it overlaps the dark.

OK. A little more of that colour,
maybe there's a little in here.

Like so.

A little right in there maybe.
Not a whole bunch.

OK, now, I'm going to begin blending
all this together. Just like that.

Just blend it together.

All kinds of beautiful
little things happen.

Maybe there's a little
white right there.

Wherever you want.

You can even take your brush
and put a few little swirly

patterns in, just to separate
things and blend it out.

The sky's...

Oh, there's as many, many different
skies as there are people to

look at 'em and paint 'em.

There is really no absolute set
way to make a sky.

There we go.

All kinds of little things
happening.

Maybe we'll put a little white
right up in here.

There we go.

Now
we just blend out the brushstrokes.

And it gives us a very quick, simple
little sky.

Easy to do and very effective.

OK, I'll clean that brush one more
time and we can get started.

If we're going to do an old barn,

maybe we'll have a...

I think we'll do a couple
of buildings today.

Buildings are always a lot of fun

and they bring a lot of joy to your
heart.

Let's start out, maybe we'll do a...

maybe there's a small building
back here.

And we'll start with some
Van Dyke Brown,

a little roll of paint on the knife.

Let's go right up here,
maybe there's a happy little

building right here,
a little shed or something.

We'll put it in first and then we'll
come back and do a big old barn.

One of my best friends
was telling me

about a saying they have
here in Indiana.

They talk about the barn
built the house,

and I didn't understand
that at first.

And you can look at the size
of the house and the barn

and see how well the old
farmer is doing.

If he's doing real well, he's got
a big barn and a big house.

OK. Now we need some...

Put a front on that old building.

This is just Van Dyke Brown.

All you're doing is just
laying in base colour right now,

you could really care less.

This is strictly, strictly
just base colour

and then we'll come back
and begin adding detail.

OK?

Now then, we've got to make
some decisions, some big decisions.

Take Van Dyke Brown
and put some Permanent Red into it.

Like so.

And just blend that together.

Now, cut across it and
let's go right up here.

And we'll just put, this is old
wood. I like old wood.

Very rarely do I paint new
buildings. I like old buildings.

And this is where you begin
making all those decisions,

bringing all this together.

You also have to decide - where
is your light coming from?

Where is your light coming
from in your world?

Maybe today we'll have it
coming from the left

so the front
of the buildings will be lit.

So we'll take the same colour,
add a little white to it,

maybe a little bit of Yellow Ochre.

So now we've got Van Dyke Brown

with Yellow Ochre, a little white

and a little Permanent Red.

Let's go back up here. Now, touch
very lightly, very lightly.

Oh, very lightly.

Just barely caressing the
canvas. And that's enough.

That's enough.

Then we'll take some blue,

Prussian Blue and Van Dyke Brown,

mix those together.

Make a very dark colour,
it should look black.

And right under this eave here,
I want a little bit of dark.

And under this eave, a little dark,
just barely lay this on.

Like so.

And I just take a clean knife and
touch that in lightly, pull down.

And it creates a shadow under these
overhangs.

That easy.

OK. Now we need some roof up here.

And we use Van Dyke Brown,
Permanent Red.

Let's go right up here.

And then we'll just start over on
that eave.

There,
then maybe come over on this eave.

Just sort of outline it
a little bit.

OK?

Now, all I'm going to do here is
just sort of touch,

just let the paint be pulled
off on to the canvas.

The canvas will pull off what it
wants, give you back what's left.

There we go. Old, old roof.

There are shingles missing and
shingles broke.

It's like me,
it's had a hard life.

There. OK?

Now we need a door in this building.

There we go. Just come across.

Maybe it's like that. This is just
the dark colour.

We don't care what
colour it is, as long as it's dark.

Maybe this building,
maybe it was made out of boards.

So I'll just take a small amount of
white, cut across it

and we'll put some indication of
some little boards here and there.

This is your building
so you have to make these decisions.

And just a few little
indications over here.

I don't want too many over here.
Just like so.

And a little bit around the door
where the light's striking,

make it stand out.

Here, it's that simple.
We got a happy little building.

Now then, I'm going to mix up
Van Dyke Brown, Permanent Red

and Prussian Blue.

We'll just mix them all
together here.

And we're going to use
quite a bit of this

so I'll mix up a pretty
good-sized pile. There we go.

Just like that. All right.

I'm going to wipe my knife here,

on just paper towels or clean rag,
whatever you have.

Now we take this old brush

and we begin dropping in what will
end up being some nice little grassy

areas, maybe they've not taken too
good a care of this old barn.

This old barn.

The weeds are beginning to
sneak in there and take it...

There we go.

All we're doing is just
dropping in some dark colours

so our lights will show when we come
back and put light colour in there.

And that mixes with the magic white

and automatically gets
lighter in value.

OK.

A lot of times as I drive
around here in Indiana, I see

old barns and they have,
I don't really know what they are,

but they have sticks or poles that
sort of project up.

Maybe there's one in right there.

This is where
they hook their antenna

so they can pick up our show. Hm.

A little bit of highlight.

Now, we said the light was
coming from the left

so it'll be on that side.

There we go.

And that's just a little
brown and white.

Put the least little bit right
there, like that.

OK, let's have a big old barn.

Now, a lot of times it really helps
if you

come up here and you sort of scrape
out a basic shape.

Maybe the old barn, the top
of it is here and it comes down.

SCRATCHING NOISES

It's got a band here,

a band that comes over here.

This is a super easy way to
lay out your basic shape.

It also will help you to remove
this excess paint.

SCRAPING

Especially if that paint is thin

because we're going to put a thick
colour over the top of it.

See? Tell you what, let's get crazy,
maybe it comes over here

and comes right in front of that
one a little bit.

That'll help push that one back.

All right.
What colour do we want the roof?

Let's use some brown and some white,

I'll put a little bit of blue
into that.

We'll lighten that down into a
couple of values.

There we go.

Very nice.

Let's go up here.

Let's start up here on the roof.

Now, when you're doing buildings,
when you're looking at a

three-quarter view - and it's a
three-quarter view

if you can see the front
and the side of the building.

That's a three-quarter view.

One of the big things to remember,
the back of this building has

to be a little tiny bit lower than
the front. That's so, so important.

And it's one of the easiest
things to overlook.

Try to remember that.

People will look at your painting
and they might not understand what's

wrong but they'll say something is
wrong with that painting.

And they may not understand what,

but their mind will tell them

something's wrong with it.

And that's usually all it is,
is that little angle.

It's such a simple little thing,

yet we have a tendency to overlook
it sometimes.

OK.

Now, right here, it bends.

A big old bend in the roof
and it comes down, like that.

Just let it go down.
Angles are very, very important.

There we go.

Just like so.

OK, now then,

let's pick up some of this brown
that we've made.

This is Van Dyke Brown, Permanent
Red, a little Prussian Blue.

And let's begin putting in some
overhangs, barns need overhangs too.

There.

So the cow has a place to stand when
it's raining so he won't get wet.

There we go.

Bring this right on down.

And here, once again, all we're
doing now is just

laying in dark colour,

you need the dark in order
for the light to show.

You need the dark.

Painting is a great deal like life.

You need a little dark in your life
so that you know

when the good stuff happens.

There.

And we've all had that and we'll
all continue to have it,

that's what makes it all worthwhile.

And the very fact that
you're aware of it,

is enough reason to be overjoyed

that you're alive and
can experience it.

Just think if you were a stone,
you'd never get to enjoy anything.

We are so fortunate.

There.

We are
building us a fantastic barn here.

A big old barn.

There.

Now we need to put some highlights
on this barn.

Permanent Red.

Permanent Red
and run into some Van Dyke Brown.

We'll make this a nice
reddish colour brown.

We'll do a red-looking barn here.

Touch very lightly,

very lightly, caress the canvas.

Caress it.

There we go. Just caress it.

OK, now, over here,
the side is going to be darker

so we can use the same colour
and add more brown to it.

Brown is your duller,
it makes colours much duller.

OK. Now then,

touch, just pull down, let the paint
break.

Just let it break.
Look at it there.

It looks like old wood already and
you haven't hardly done a thing.

It's unbelievable what you can do.

Now then, just like in the other,
we need some shadows

so I'll use a little bit of this
dark -

that was Prussian Blue and
Van Dyke Brown.

Just like so, just lay it on first.

Mix up a little more Prussian Blue
and Van Dyke Brown.

And right into this overhang here.

We need that dark,
it sort of sets everything off.

And makes it look so much better.

Now, clean my knife, touch,

just pull it down a little bit.

Don't want to kill it all, there.

And maybe, maybe, maybe...

Maybe there's, right across here,

a touch again with the dark colour

and we'll grab that and pull down.

Just pull it straight down

so it looks like there
was a division there.

And we'll go right into a little
bit of light colour and we'll put

some happy little boards right in
there.

All I'm doing is just cutting
right through.

A little bit of colour on the knife.

Just to give an indication
of small barn boards.

If you can find an old barn in your
neighbourhood that the farmer

didn't want any more, these old
boards make some of the most

beautiful picture frames you have
ever seen. Try it.

And they are easy to make.

OK, now we need,

we need a place up here so that the
old farmer could pull his hay up,

and put it up in there.

OK. And...

..right here, we'll have a big door.

This is just blue and brown,
just a dark colour.

A big door, big door.

And then around the edge of the
door, a little bit of light strikes.

Makes that door stand out. I'll put
a little bit right around here too.

Just to make it stand out a little.

OK. We'll have some little
indication of some boards here,

don't want it to be left out.

There we go. Just drop 'em in.

There.

Now, if this doesn't stand apart
enough, take a little dark colour

cos there needs to be a division
between the front and the side.

Take a little dark colour and put
it in there.

There.

And that'll help separate it,
just like so...

OK.

I think we're ready to play
a little more now.

Maybe, maybe, maybe,

maybe we'll put some
nice little grass right along here.

And I'm just tapping with this
two-and-a-half-inch brush.

This is where you straighten out
the bottom of your barn

and decide where
everything is going to be.

There we go.

Just let it go.

And really, you could put this on
with a paint roller.

It really makes no difference.

All we're doing here is just a
blank, dark colour.

There. Just need some dark colour.

Heck, we'll just
go into some Sap Green.

Just add a little Sap Green to that.

Even a touch of crimson,
Alizarin Crimson.

Cos when you put Sap Green
and Alizarin Crimson,

together, it makes a beautiful,
beautiful, rich brown colour.

So we are still
working in brown tones.

But by mixing on the brush
and on the canvas, we are

going to have some nice effects here
when we get done.

Right.

Now, no farm is complete
without some fences.

So let's build some fences.

We'll start with some of this brown
colour,

made from the Permanent Red, the Van
Dyke Brown and our Prussian Blue.

The Prussian Blue, there's almost
a tendency to say Persian Blue.

But that was my kitty cat.

OK. Put a little fence right here.

Maybe this one here.

I'll tell you what I want to do,

I'll put a little grass back
here before I do all that.

So we'll take a little yellow,

a little Sap Green because if I put
that fence in first,

it's going to be hard to sneak in
a grassy area back in there.

Now I'll just use a little
Indian Yellow, Yellow Ochre,

just mix 'em on the brush, let all
these little colours happen.

Not too much colour in between,
there's a big shadow in there.

Just a little indication of some
colour.

There we go. Out here.

Look at that.

Look at that.

Right along the barn here.

A few little weeds are beginning
to grow up the side.

He's like me,
he don't cut his lawn enough.

And I'm the world's worst
lawn keeper.

I'm ashamed to tell you that.

OK, a little bit of the happy little
grassy areas right out through here.

And wherever, wherever.

There we go.

You don't want to kill all this dark
cos there's probably been a lot of

cows and horses walking around here,

they've sort of tramped all this
down.

There's a lot of dead grass in here.

If you were stepped on by a horse,
you'd be brown too. They hurt.

When I was a little boy,

I had a horse step on my foot
one time and oh...

You don't realise how much
they weigh until they step on you.

OK. Now we can put our fence in.

There it comes. Maybe here.

Let's play games today. Maybe this
fence goes up there and then over.

I'm just doing this so you can see

how you make a fence move all
around.

HE HUMS

Be brave. Be brave.

Drop 'em in, drop 'em in.

Maybe it comes right down like that.

OK. Let's put one more little one
right there

so it goes around out of sight.

Now we need to highlight these
so I'll take some white

and a little bit of light brown
and all I'll do is just touch,

just touch, so you have a little
bit of highlight on these posts.

HE HUMS

There we are.
Now we need some rails.

We'll just use the same old
brown colour.

All I'm going to do is just touch.

This old farmer, he's like me,
he just picked up whatever

happened to be laying around
and he made him a fence out of it.

Now here, we want it to go uphill,
see.

Bloop, bloop.

See how you can bend fences
right around in your painting?

And fences help to add a lot of
depth and a lot of perspective

to your painting, use them.

And they're fun, they're easy.

And of course we are not interested
in those happy bucks, but

if you ever want to sell a painting,
a fence adds a lot of interest.

Maybe, tell you what, maybe there's
a little fence right over here.

Just a quick little
indication like that.

And in here, I'm just going to rub,

just let that colour rub so it looks
like a little path.

And we're just mixing all
the colours on the canvas.

Maybe, maybe,

maybe, maybe this was where
the horsey lived right here.

So the fence comes right on up,

and you just let your fence go
wherever you want it to go,

but as it gets closer to you,
it needs to get bigger

and these posts need to get a little
bit further apart.

Just let them get closer
and bigger and stronger.

That's where this old knife is
so fantastic,

it really makes beautiful,
beautiful fences.

OK, little highlight on these
fences, bloop, bloop, bloop.

I'm just using a little brown and
white and a touch of blue in it.

Just barely, barely touching.

And don't want to cover up all
the dark. Just a little.

Now, I've got that colour on there
and I want to add the tiniest

little bit of highlight here
and there on these little rails.

You could also make these rails
using your liner brush.

That would work.

Tell you what,
a little top on those.

I'm just using a little touch
of Permanent Red here.

HE HUMS

There we go.

Now, back to our brown and we'll put
some rails coming right up

through here.
Touch, touch, there they go.

Just, as I say, this old farmer,

he just used whatever he could
find laying around,

rails and sticks

and trees that fell down
in his backyard.

He used what nature gives you.

And nature gives you
everything you need.

See, there it comes.

And when you're at home,
maybe you want three

rails on your fence or four,
or maybe half of them's fell off.

You have to make these decisions.

And that's what makes it fun cos
it's your world,

you create what you want.

Now then,

a little highlight up here
on these rails.

You can see how this little fence
adds a lot of depth to the painting,

changes your whole perspective.

It's really a lot of fun.

Gives you a lot of practice with
this almighty knife.

Tell you what, let's do,

let's go back into our big brush,

get a little more of this yellow
colour and we'll just put

some little grassy things, this is
yellow, add a little Yellow Ochre.

And all we're going to do here is

just touch and let these little
things happen.

Like so.

See, we've got our little path now.

You need to bring some grassy areas
right on down into your path.

Cover up the foots of these.

And if you pick up
a little of that dark, it's fine.

I'm going to take a liner brush,

little paint thinner and go right
into brown paint here and there.

You know you never get the grass cut
good around the bottom of the fence.

So there's always weeds here and
there.

Wherever you want them,
just grab them, lift up.

Tell you what, let's take a
little bit of thin oil,

a little Permanent Red,
sign this one and call it finished.

I really hope you've enjoyed this
one and it's sparked

your imagination and you've got your
canvas out and you're ready to go.

And with that, we wish you happy
painting. God bless.
