All language subtitles for The Joy of Painting - 2x15 - _track3_[eng]

Ha-ha. Welcome back. I'm certainly
glad you could join me this time.

Today, I think we'll do a painting
that's a little bit different.

And let's start out, we will
have them run all the colours

across the screen that you need to
paint along with me today.

And while they're doing that,
come on up here

and let me tell you
what's happening.

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

it's painted yellow, and this
is just an acrylic yellow paint

and I've covered the entire canvas
with it

and, right here is just...this
is a piece of duct tape

I found here in the studio,
just... You can use duct tape,

or masking tape, any kind of tape,

and I've just made a circle
right there.

This canvas is dry today.

And onto this, we're going
to begin putting a little bit

of the liquid black colour
and I'm going to make

a beautiful little sunset
out of it. OK?

Let's go right up here.

And I'll just use
a little two-inch brush

and I'm just going
to start laying in...

..just laying in some little things.

Just like so.

And just sort of make a decision,

decide where they're going to be.
And lay them in.

There's very, very little of the
liquid black on the brush here.

Very little.

There we go.

Can we get a touch more on my brush?
OK.

Just, once again,
barely touching the canvas.

Just caress the canvas

and let it go across like that.

There.

Then we're just going to lay these
in, just at random, here and there.

Little more of the black.

And, right there.

There.
This is going to be a fun painting.

As I say, it's different than
anything that we've done before

and I really think you'll enjoy it.

This is going to be a sunset,
and this will be the sun,

if you haven't figured that
out already.

That's going to be the sun,
when we're all finished.

And we'll just bring some of these
dark areas right across it.

Right across it, maybe there
is another one right here.

We don't know, we don't know.

And at this point,
we're really not all that committed.

Now, one thing that helps

when you're doing this
particular painting,

is a very smooth canvas and I always
use a very smooth canvas,

but in this painting, it's really
important, so your brush will slide.

Right. Now, let me wash the brush.

Just scrub it off here.

Shake off the excess thinner.

HE CHUCKLES

Give it a little rap and off we go.

Now, I'm going to begin adding
some colour into this.

I'm going to start first with a
tiny little bit of Alizarin crimson.

And just work it into the bristles,
tap the brush, tap it. See?

And that way, you get a nice even
distribution of colour.

All the way through the brush.
Let's go up here.

I'm going right into
the liquid black,

letting it mix and begin pulling
a little bit of it out.

Just let it blend and work together.

You see there?

All these little colours
just happen.

Just happen. There.

Right there.

And on this particular painting,
we use a very limited palette.

Very few colours in it.

And the colours that
we use in this painting,

most of them are very transparent...

..so the yellow will show through.

This crimson here is extremely,
extremely transparent.

Beautiful, beautiful colour.

There.

And down here, when we get around
what is going to be the sun...

..we want this area here to be
brighter and brighter and brighter.

Brighter, so I'm going to leave
some areas open there.

OK.

There.

Now then.

I'm going to go right into
a small amount of Indian yellow.

Very transparent yellow.

Tap it, let's go back up here.

Now, we'll start right up here.

And just begin laying
that yellow in here.

Try to keep the yellow off
the liquid black,

because black and yellow,
as you probably know, makes green.

And we want to have all these
beautiful oranges and yellows

and reds in this painting.

There.

You know, we get a lot of questions
that come into us

and one of the questions
I hear over and over again

is that I talk about having a clear,
acrylic palette,

but my palette on TV does not
look clear.

Well, there is a reason for that
and I should have told you before.

I take and use sandpaper
on my palette

to scuff it up, otherwise it
creates huge glares on TV.

The same as we take and we cover

the brush furrows and stuff
with tape,

just to keep them from shining.

Even the knives are covered.

OK? Now we'll go right into
a little bit of cadmium yellow.

And right around the sun here,
where it's bright,

add a little bit of cad yellow.

And let it work out. See there?

Make all kinds of pretty
little effects.

And, and, without cleaning
the brush,

I want to add a small amount
of titanium white.

Just tapping the brush
into it again.

Now, figure out in here
where you'd like to have

some happy little highlights,
little clouds

and all you've got to do,

just sort of give that brush
a little wiggle and let it go.

Now, the white is very opaque.

It's very opaque.

This painting will teach you a lot.

It's a lot of fun.

Just think where light would strike
and put a little bit...

Don't overdo it with this.

It's easy to get carried away.

Don't overdo.

Maybe, just some little strikes
right here.

Just sort of let your heart
be your guide

and take you where you want to go.

You know, we travel all over the
country doing classes and seminars

and I like, I like to ride at night
and listen to my CB radio.

I've got a CB radio in my van
and I listen to the truckers

and they're super people.
Let me tell you,

one night of travelling,
listening to truckers on CB,

will give you more education
than five years of school.

HE CHUCKLES

You can't believe some of the things
I've learned.

I really enjoy talking with them.

There we go.

We travel, we travel all over

and we meet so many fantastic people
when we're doing this.

As I said on some
of the other shows,

I really believe only super people
paint and enjoy art.

There we go.
We can just keep on and on.

It can take us to any degree of
lightness or darkness that you want.

I'm just using the brush sidewards
and just blending it altogether.

Just like so.

Maybe, tell you what...

..just put a little bit of light
up in here.

In your painting, in your world,
you put it wherever you want,

you make these decisions, decide
where the light is and lay it in.

Look at how those colours
mix and blend.

Now, if you had covered the canvas
with liquid black

and tried to do this,
with yellow, wet,

you would have had
a lot of problems.

You'd have had a bright green sky.

Because it's dry,
you get away with a lot of things.

You almost literally get away
with murder. Look at that.

Now, I've got this quite bright,
so it shows up well on your set.

But at home,
you make it however you want it.

And that easy, that easy, we've got
a very effective little sky. OK.

Maybe wash my old brush off...

..then we can have some fun.

I just covered a cameraman right
over there. He's going to get me.

Now then, we take the knife,
come right down here,

so you can see this very close.

I'm going to take the knife
and just reach under,

get it started.
Now, just peel this off.

Up-up! There you go. And that easy.

That easy. You've got a happy
little sun right there.

Now then, right now, if you come
right up close here again,

let's take a look-see.

Right now you've got a very
distinct line here -

you don't want that.

With a fan brush, I'm going
to begin to very gently blend this.

Allow some of that
colour to come across.

See how it softens those edges?

There.

OK?

This is just a clean, dry,
very soft fan brush.

Looky there.
See how it brings that all together?

Gives a sort of mysterious effect.

This would make a good
Halloween picture.

That's getting very close
to my birthday,

I was almost born on Halloween.

My father and I both were born
very close to that date.

There.

We had one day apart
in our birth dates.

So, we always had a deal, you know,
since it was so close together,

he didn't have to give me anything
and I didn't have to give
him anything either.

But he'd always sneak around and
get me something, then I felt bad.

There we go.
Wash that brush. Dry it.

Very lightly, I'm just going
to blend all this together.

See, now look how soft
that nice edge is here.

OK, now we can begin putting in some
happy little things here.

I'm going to take
the same old fan brush.

Go right into my midnight black.

Load it full.

Load it full.

OK, let's go right up here.

Now, we'll have some distant little
trees, little evergreens.

Now, you've probably seen me
do these hundreds of times.

Just take the fan brush and tap.

Just tap.

You know, one of the most exciting
things that happens

doing a show like this,
we get hundreds of letters

from fantastic people, all over the
country, and they send me pictures.

You can't believe
some of the paintings

that people are doing
all over the country.

And you know, I thought today maybe
I'd like to share some of those

with you, so I've taken the liberty
of taking a few of these pictures

that people have sent and I've stuck
them on a little board here

and I'm going to have the cameras
just sort of pan across

and let you see what people
all over the country are doing.

Now, this is just
a random selection,

there's many, many more
and if I didn't show your painting,

I apologise, and next time,
your painting will be here.

I'll just keep making these little
trees while you're doing that.

So, I'm not doing
anything you don't know about.

We'd love to hear from you
and see what you're doing.

Drop us a card,
send us a photograph.

Maybe next time,
we'll get your painting on TV.

And if you see yours on there,
thanks for sending it to me,

because it does wonderful things
to my heart

to see that this is working
so fantastic for you.

There. See, we just keep right on

dropping in a few of these
little trees.

Can you believe some of those
paintings people were doing?

And you can do it.

If you're not doing it,
pick up a brush and join us,

because you really can do it.
There's no secret to this.

There's no secret to it. We show you
everything you need to know here.

There.

OK.

That ought to give us enough little
trees to play with right now.

Just some little indications.

And then we'll take a little
two-inch brush here

and I'm just going to tap
the bottom of it a little bit.

Actually, I'm just getting a little
colour on the brush.

And then we'll begin pulling it.

Just begin pulling it.

Tap it, pulling it,

and here's where we begin creating
the lay of the land.

You can pop that up. See, it makes
a little misty effect there.

Look at that.

Makes all kinds
of beautiful little things happen.

That easy. That easy.

We don't know where this goes
right now,

maybe put a little colour
on the brush,

maybe it just goes
right on over there.

Right. I'm going to put some big
trees, I think, there,

I'm not worried about that area
right now.

I'm going to show you how to do some
beautiful evergreens in here.

Is that beginning to
look like an old moon, though,

or a sun that's...?

It could be a moon,
now that I think about it.

It could be the moon.

See, you've got to make
another decision,

is this a sunset or a moon set?

OK, we'll just rub that a little
and lift it.

Create that nice misty effect.

And don't kill all these
light areas,

they're going to end up
looking like little patches of light

shining across here.

Try to save some of them, preserve
some of them. They're your friends.

They'll make your painting happy.

All right.

Let's take...

Boy, I'd be scared to walk out
here at night by myself.

Got to be a booger living there.

Let's build some trees.

Let's build some trees.
I'll just use this black.

Load the brush full, both sides.

Both sides, good and full of paint.
OK?

Maybe there's a happy little tree
that lives right there.

And normally, if you've watched
the show before

I tap down to create trees,
this time,

I've got a lot of letters saying,
trees in my yard,

the limbs grow upward.

So, all you do,
is the same basic thing,

just push upward with the brush.

We'll do those kinds
in this painting.

I don't want to do them
all the same.

That way it'll give you something
else to play with,

if you've painted with me.

There.

We like to continually
give you new ideas.

Just to keep you going. OK?

Tell you what, tell you what,
maybe...

Yep, right there.
There's another one.

It certainly is now, the way
he's laying around here in the sky.

And, one side of the brush runs
out of paint, turn it over,

use the other.
Push it gently upward.

There we go and as you go down,
push harder.

Harder, so the limbs get bigger
and stronger

and this one maybe comes
to right there,

wherever you want it.

Wherever, maybe there are some
little happy things

that grow around its foot.

A little bit of stuff right there.

There. We'll soften that up
with a big brush in a minute

and that will help create another
plane in the painting, more depth.

Now, you know, some of the trees,

while some of them have a hard
time... This one's back here...

Oh...

Maybe, maybe, maybe he died on us.

So, I'm just going to put him
in there...

You need a few dead trees
in your painting, too,

it helps make it look more real.

Nature has live things
and dead things.

Looky there. OK?

But maybe right here. Maybe... Yep.

Here's a big healthy one.
Oh, he got a lot of water.

Lot of sunshine.

Give it a little push, bend...

There we go. See?

And leave some spaces in here, you
need places for the birds to sit.

The wind has to get through.

So, leave some spaces, it makes
your tree look a little better.

Little birds need a place to sit.

Let's take our big brush and again,
just scrubbing some of this.

See there? Just grab it, scrub it.

All kinds of little effects
and once again,

you're just allowing some of that
under colour to show through.

And by changing these angles,
it helps create the lay of the land.

Make all these little grassy things.
Maybe there's another one.

Wherever, wherever.

You decide where they live.
There's one.

Other little plain.

Goes right on up.

I like these kind of paintings.
They teach you how to use colour.

We're using such a few colours
to do this.

They're the fun kind.

Cos here you work with a lot
of values.

You go right in here and just
lay in a little bit of colour.

Right in here.

Just pop it upward.

Look at that. Look at all the little
things that are happening.

I get excited when I see these.

There we go.

OK.

I'm having so much fun making
all these little trees,

I'm going to make another little
tree here.

Maybe he lives right here.

And this tree, OK, OK, I'll tell you
what, he comes all the way down.

This tree, he's got a few little
things that are hanging on here.

And a few that aren't.

You know, some of these old trees,
well, they're like people,

they're as individual as people.

Some of them have a
few limbs here and there,

and that's what makes us
interesting, we're different.

We all have different personalities
and we look different...

..that's what makes people
interesting and trees and bushes,

they're the same.
They have personalities.

And they're just people
with a little stronger roots

than most of us have.

They can't get away.

Just pop that up.

Let's have some fun.

I want to put a big tree
right in front of the sun here,

just draw it right in front
of the sun.

We're going to check and see
if you're brave today.

Load a lot of paint into the brush,
a lot of paint,

I'm using the same old brush.

But look how full it is.

It's really just loaded with paint.

OK, let's go up here.

Now, decide where this tree lives

and I want to show
some sun on both sides,

so I'm going to do it right there,

all right through, right through...

Look at that. Look at that.

Bob's messed up the painting.

But that's one of the beautiful
things about oil paint,

you really can't hardly
make a mistake.

Because with oil paints,
you can just take it off the canvas

if worst comes to worst,
while it's still wet,

you can just take and zip it off,
take a little thinner,

clean the canvas,
use it over and over again.

Or if it's dry, you can paint right
over the top of it, no big deal.

You don't ever waste a canvas.

OK, maybe there's a little ledge
right here that sits on.

Look at that.

Let's give him an indication
of a big old strong foot out here.

Hold him up. We don't want this
tree to fall over.

If it fell over, it would
fall right into the sun

and we can't have that happening.

Just pop in a few little weeds,
growing out there.

There we go.

Now, if we just had one tree,
he'd get lonely.

And he'd pick on all these
other ones out here,

so let's put another
big tree over here.

Back into the black.

And this big tree...

Yep, it is now anyway,
he lives right there.

He lives right there.
Look how easy it is, though.

I'm just tapping with the brush.
Just really sock it, sock it to it.

There we go.

But, look at all the little fuzzy
things that happens right here,

see, when you hit hard
with that brush,

you get all these little fuzzy edges
and evergreens have all these.

They just have all the little,
I don't know what you call them.

Look at that.

And, to me, that looks more
realistic than a nice smooth tree.

If you want a smooth tree, just take
the brush and pull it straight down.

And you'll get a smooth tree.

I personally prefer one
that is a little fuzzy.

But everybody sees nature
through different eyes,

so I just want to show you how
to make many effects

and you make the effects
that please you.

There we go.

There we go.

You know, I've got to tell you
a little story.

We recently did a demonstration
in Boston

for some of the most fantastic
people in the world.

And I met a lady there...

..and, you know, we all wonder
if we can paint,

this lady is blind
and she watches the shows

and she paints along with us
and she does fantastic pictures.

If she's watching this,
God bless you,

cos you're a super lady
and I really enjoyed meeting you

and I hope the next time I come back
to Boston, we can get together

and maybe we can paint together
and have a super time.

But I thought that was the most
fantastic thing I had ever heard of.

I'm going to take a bit of the
liquid black, put it on my palette.

And, my lighter brush,
go into some paint thinner,

I want to make this even thinner.
It's literally like water.

Turn that brush, OK,
let's go up here.

Let's put some happy little limbs
right across the sun. There it is.

See, because this paint is so thin,

it literally, literally,
just flows off the brush.

Look at that.

Look at that.

There's one, right there.
And just put as many as you want,

wherever you want.
This is your world.

So you create, you create the type
of world that you want.

There.

There's freedom on this canvas.

There is freedom.

Boy, I have so many beautiful ladies
who write and they say,

"You know, when I'm painting,
the kids don't bother me,

"and I create my own world and it
really makes me happy,"

and that's true.

I was a single parent
for a long time

and I understand a lot
of those things.

A lot of those things.
Let's put some limbs over here.

You know, it's terrible,

they never teach men anything
about how to take care of a house.

My son still talks and he'll tell
people all the time

about me making him eat
burnt TV dinners.

I'm just about the world's
worst cook.

There. And just drop these in
wherever you want them.

There we go.

There we go.

Maybe on this series we'll get him
back and let him paint for you.

He's 20 years old now. He cooks
his own burnt TV dinners.

OK.

Now then, let's take
and put some leaves on there.

I'm going to use a number
three fan brush.

Normally, I use number six,
then we use number three,

load it full of paint,
just like we did the other one.

Just a lot of paint.
OK, let's go right up here.

Now, since all these were going up,
let's just take the brush

and push these up and create some
happy little things

that live right out here.

Now, we don't want to kill
the sun here,

we worked so hard to put it in,

don't put so much on it,
you kill it, leave it in there.

All of them don't have
to have leaves.

Maybe out here,
these are only a few little ones,

maybe here there's just a couple,
just, you know,

make these decisions,
wherever you want them,

that's where they ought to be.

All right.

God, you guys, it's really
fantastic to be here with you.

It's hard for me to believe that
with the completion of this series,

we'll have over 90 half-hour shows.

Over 90. That's almost unreal to me.

It's almost unreal
and I can't thank you enough

for allowing me into your home.

You are beautiful people. Thank you.

OK. There we go.

Just dropping in all these
happy little things.

And you just decide where you think
these leaves would be.

Drop them on.

But leave some of the stalk here,
some of the trunk showing,

it makes it a little
more interesting.

And you can always take your liner
brush and go back in here, see,

and add some little things in here
to hold it all up, if you want to.

I guess right here.

I think it ought to have a few
more limbs in it.

Wherever or whatever.
There you go. Just like so.

Now then, without cleaning
the brush,

I'm going right into sap green.

Right into sap green,
I'm just going to load it full.

Even though this is very dark,
very dark,

you might be able to see
a little greenish tint.

So, I'll put a little green on the
brush, it's really loaded full.

Let's just go back up here.

Up here on the tops of some
of these leaves,

I'm just going to push... I hope you
can see that on your set at home.

It's so dark, it's very hard to see.

Just gives a little greenish tint.

When you do this painting at home,
you'll see it.

Just here and there.
Here and there.

A little bit of highlight on it,
it sort of separates these.

And creates a beautiful little
painting. Just like so.

And maybe down here, we'll have
a few little grassy areas.

Just a couple.

It just sort of breaks it up. OK.

I think this one's ready
for a signature.

I'll take a little
bit of the thin oil, some red,

mix it up real good till it's
like water. Just go right up here.

And I'll sign this one.

I'd like to thank you for being
with me today.

It's always a pleasure for me
to paint with you.

I hope you've enjoyed this one
and it's given you a lot of ideas

and we see you again next time.

Until then, happy painting,
God bless.
