I sincerely wish for you every possible joy life could bring. I sincerely wish for you every possible joy life could bring. I spend a lot of time walking around in the woods and talking to trees, and squirrels, and little rabbits and stuff. Just use the old one inch brush. But they're very easily killed. Clouds are delicate. Let's put some happy little bushes on the other side now. Don't kill all your dark areas - you need them to show the light. Put it in, leave it alone. Let's build an almighty mountain. I started painting as a hobby when I was little. I didn't know I had any talent. I believe talent is just a pursued interest. Anybody can do what I do.

If you hypnotize it, it will go away. Steve wants reflections, so let's give him reflections. I really recommend you use odorless thinner or your spouse is gonna run you right out into the yard and you'll be working by yourself. For the lack of a better word I call them hangy downs. You could sit here for weeks with your one hair brush trying to do that - or you could do it with one stroke with an almighty brush. See there how easy that is. Get away from those little Christmas tree things we used to make in school. I like to beat the brush. We don't have to be committed. We are just playing here. Let's give him a friend too. Everybody needs a friend.

We have no limits to our world. We're only limited by our imagination. Let's make some happy little clouds in our world. Go out on a limb - that's where the fruit is. We have no limits to our world. We're only limited by our imagination. So often we avoid running water, and running water is a lot of fun. That's what painting is all about. It should make you feel good when you paint. Even the worst thing we can do here is good. You don't want to kill all your dark areas they are very important. I'm going to mix up a little color. We'll use Van Dyke Brown, Permanent Red, and a little bit of Prussian Blue. You can work and carry-on and put lots of little happy things in here.

The light is your friend. Preserve it. Put your feelings into it, your heart, it's your world. Happy painting, God bless. Let's get wild today. Life is too short to be alone, too precious. Share it with a friend. That's the way I look when I get home late; black and blue. It's a good way of getting rid of all your anxieties and hostilities. Working it up and down, back and forth. Maybe there was an old trapper that lived out here and maybe one day he went to check his beaver traps, and maybe he fell into the river and drowned. Let all these things just sort of happen.

Just go out and talk to a tree. Make friends with it. Everyone needs a friend. Friends are the most valuable things in the world. It's a super day, so why not make a beautiful sky? Once you learn the technique, ohhh! Turn you loose on the world; you become a tiger. Nice little fluffy clouds laying around in the sky being lazy. Let's do it again then, what the heck. That's a crooked tree. We'll send him to Washington. Just think about these things in your mind and drop em' on canvas. Now we don't want him to get lonely, so we'll give him a little friend. It's life. It's interesting. It's fun.

We're trying to teach you a technique here and how to use it. This piece of canvas is your world. Just think about these things in your mind - then bring them into your world. I'll go over the colors one more time that we use: Titanium white, Thalo green, Prussian blue, Van Dyke brown, Alizarin crimson, Sap green, Cad yellow, and Permanent red. This is the time to get out all your flustrations, much better than kicking the dog around the house or taking it out on your spouse. Work on one thing at a time. Don't get carried away - we have plenty of time. God gave you this gift of imagination. Use it. If you don't like it - change it. It's your world. Go out on a limb - that's where the fruit is. I'm gonna start with a little Alizarin crimson and a touch of Prussian blue

Just think about these things in your mind - then bring them into your world. Son of a gun. This is a happy place, little squirrels live here and play. All kinds of happy little splashes. Everyone wants to enjoy the good parts - but you have to build the framework first. I like to beat the brush. This is gonna be a happy little seascape. Talent is a pursued interest. That is to say, anything you practice you can do. Let that brush dance around there and play. From all of us here, I want to wish you happy painting and God bless, my friends.

Let's make a happy little mountain now. The secret to doing anything is believing that you can do it. Anything that you believe you can do strong enough, you can do. Anything. As long as you believe. Just go back and put one little more happy tree in there. The more we do this - the more it will do good things to our heart. For the lack of a better word I call them hangy downs. Imagination is the key to painting. This is the way you take out your flustrations. Be so very light. Be a gentle whisper. We might as well make some Almighty mountains today as well, what the heck. I'm gonna start with a little Alizarin crimson and a touch of Prussian blue

This painting comes right out of your heart. Steve wants reflections, so let's give him reflections. If you don't think every day is a good day - try missing a few. You'll see. You're meant to have fun in life. Brown is such a nice color. It's cold, but it's beautiful. I thought today we would make a happy little stream that's just running through the woods here. We don't want to set these clouds on fire. The shadows are just like the highlights, but we're going in the opposite direction. Talent is a pursued interest. That is to say, anything you practice you can do.

A tree needs to be your friend if you're going to paint him. When you buy that first tube of paint it gives you an artist license. There's not a thing in the world wrong with washing your brush. We're not trying to teach you a thing to copy. We're just here to teach you a technique, then let you loose into the world. If you didn't have baby clouds, you wouldn't have big clouds. It's a super day, so why not make a beautiful sky? The shadows are just like the highlights, but we're going in the opposite direction. You can do anything here - the only prerequisite is that it makes you happy. I like to beat the brush. Isn't that fantastic? You can just push a little tree out of your brush like that.
