This is a beautiful and serene painting with very soothing colors. I can imagine seeing fish jumping out of the water and hearing birds chirping in the woods as the water rushes by and splashes over the little waterfall. I will be adding this beauty to my list of 'paintings to do that are inspired by Paul, the master artist'. 🤩🥰

Now thats a challenge - more for me than for Bob's technique! I've used the wet on wet technique for many different scenes and paintings over the years. I've no doubt it can be adapted to Cezanne's style too. But by me? Maybe a job for a better artist - Paul 😃😎

Hi Linda - thank you and yes, the rock on the right just didn't work for me. I like to live with things for a while incase they come good. This often happens as the painting progresses. Its a top tip: don't judge a painting until you've had a chance to add a few more elements. Then you can dislike the bit you've just painted and will probably forgotten the other things that bothered you. 😂 - New video breaks out today at 6.00pm UK time 🥰

Its not easy to make an exact substitute. But, I have used a very very thin coat of linseed oil as a substitute. Its a lot thinner but still enables blending on the canvas 😃😃😎😎 p.s. dry clean the brush you use for the linseed oil before you go into color. If not you'll make a really big wet mud pie!

I have switched to only water mixable oils, so do you have tutorials on these?

@PaulRansonArt Ай бұрын

Hi Vicki - I haven't done any dedicated tutorials for the use of water mixable oils but I have used them for my own paintings. Water mixable oil paint is still an oil paint so works just the same as regular oils. The missing ingredients are Liquid White and Clear for wet on wet technique I often demonstrate. So for Liquid Clear, I use Water Mixable Linseed oil applied very thinly (it's quite a bit more liquid than BR Liquid Clear. For Liquid white I just scrub a little Tintanium White into the Linseed oil. The results are so far very nice. So I think you should be able to repeat any of my tutorials with water-mixable oils. Maybe I'll do one or two later on as I think it's a growing trend. Hope that helps Vicki - Paul 😃😃😍😍😎😎
