Enjoyed it very much .. I would like to see you take on another acrylic paint project .. learning the different brush techniques for shading, dry brushing, highlighting, etc. It would be nice to see you work through a complete piece, taking multiple episodes to complete! There are so many techniques to cover, or discover😉 It would be kind-of like 'paint and sip' episodes!

Watercolor. I'm trying it now and loving it. I'm a mess, using pans, pencils and tubes indiscriminately. But I'm having fun.

I think you need a base of "liquid white" for the Bob Ross painting! That's how he gets it to blend so smoothly (said with the absolute confidence of someone who has never made an oil painting in their life 😂)

@Chloe, I want to see you paint again wtih oils. I saw your video a while back and I think if you get a little bit of an understanding of the oil mediums, you will love it. It is slower to dry that acrylics, which is both good and bad. It means you can capture these stunning colours and gradients and I think this would be the perfect backdrop for a Disney castle sky. With the help of some quick drying mediums (gamlin have a nice one that is non toxic too, so bonus), you will grow to love it. You definitely have the talent to be able to create some beautiful pieces with it. You will actually soon learn that it isn't even hard. I used to think that too and was sticking to acrylics. I just realised, I wasn't doing it right and some of the YT tutorials skipped the important things. Good luck.

Bob’s method is called “wet on wet”. I think that would help you with the dryness. Edit: I want to see you do another Bob Ross painting!!

For answering your question: You can use acrylic paint first and when that´s dry (pretty quickly) you can do oil painting on top. I love acrylic painting just because it´s so approachable with cleaning and mixing water. And it dries more quickly. I don´t know if I´m the only one, but when I painted with oil paints, while the painting dried it attracted my dogs hair 🙈

Yeah that happens. Build a cardboard box to store the painting in as it dries. Won’t keep all dust from getting in but it will keep a ton out. Also helps if you cover the box with a bag or something to further keep dust/fur out. Tends to be what I do when I wait for paintings to dry.

I love how you are willing and open to trying new mediums even if you’re terrified of it! You did fantastic in both pieces!

Watercolour or Gauche, I love painting with them. I paint abstract as well the normal paintings. The guy from ADC attack had some videos on gauche.

Oil pastels can be your baby steps to attempt later oil painting with brushes. They can also be blended with linseed oil and other mineral spirits. The good thing about oil painting on canvas is that you can recycle canvases by covering them with white or black. Great try and a fun video to watch too. Thanks!

I'd love to see you try watercolor painting. For a specific supply, Marabu Art Crayons, which are a mix of a crayon and a pastel and unless you blend with your fingers on the paper (they do offer a blender), you don't have to touch the wax!

I am a big fan of Oil medium, probably because I tried it before trying out other mediums (water and dry mediums like pencil). I'll suggest you to use paint thinners more generously, and use it like you'd use water in watercolour. That way, you'll slowly learn how to work around the consistency. Once you get that, Oil is really fun!! You did AMAZING for a first time! I love how you tried knives to finish it. Looks great!

Wow! I can’t believe you’ve never watched Bob Ross. I watched him as a little girl for years. He was on PBS (free tv) in the US forever. He’s an icon here. He was one of the sweetest people. He had pet squirrels :) So glad you’ve found him :)

At the very beginning when you first started painting, I think the problem is you didn't cover the canvas with Titanium White first. That helps the other paints to spread thin and evenly on the canvas. You seem to be painting on a dry canvas which is why yours isn't spreading. Edit: yep well you did put it on it just dried. Which is strange. Oil paints don't dry very quickly. Maybe you didn't put enough much on. Or you might need to thin your paints out a bit with a touch of the oil.it turned out great though!!!

For a first timer, your work is quite splendid. One thing that I learnt from my old teacher is to give oil painting rest for at least a day after every layer!!!! That's why oil paintings can extend up to a month, free hand!!!! Another thing I love doing during online classes is noting first and using next.

Hi Sarah, the technique you used for the second painting was made for acrylic (palette knife, raised textured paint). Oil paint is used for smooth blend paintings like classical paintings (because they take forever to dry and you can blend them to your hearts content until you’re satisfied. Blocky colors that have high contrast and used with palette knife is made for acrylics because the paints will already be dry when you want to put smth else on top of it, thats why they wont get muddied.

I know a few artists that use both palette knife and raised textured paint for oilpaints! Even though oils is mostly common for smooth blend paintings, you can still add texture and use the palette knife. I think it’s up to every single artist how they want to approach

This is great! One thing that may be helpful is Bob Ross had a very unique approach to oils in painting with a wet on wet technique and to make it work he actually created a product he called Magic White, basically titanium white mixed with linseed oil, but you can purchase dupes at craft stores. He often covered his canvas skyline with it at least before adding colors which would make them really moist and smooth and you could use less paint on your brush. Another trick he often talked about with the wet on wet technique was to use thinner pain on top of thicker paint. So thin your paint as you go.

Your first oil paintings are beautiful! I’ve been using oils for a few years now and I love them. Mediums like liquin or galkyd can help your paint dry faster. Linseed oil is great for finishing glazes if you’ve already used very oil heavy paint. The blend-ability and drying time is why I love oils but I know some hate it for the same reasons

I love that you just gave me the courage to try oil painting. I've been doing acrylic and watercolor for years, but never oil and I've been asked to do it so often, I've just been scared to waste medium and supplies without having a decent painting to sell when I'm done, plus it takes forever to dry. But now I'm going to try it because you just gave me the courage to do it Sarah, thank you.

I use plain sunflower oil to keep my brushes ‘moist’ when not in use 🤗 So that raw linseed oil might break down your paint! You need refined linseed oil OR you can use a product called ‘liquin’ by winsor&newton There’s a few different choices of products from Winsor&newton Dip your brush in oil for moisture 🥰 You did great, for your first time! So don’t be hard on yourself 😘 I LOVE oil painting now even though I am most known for watercolour painting 🥰🎨💜🌸

You mentioned that you hadn't watched Bob Ross before. My brother and I grew up in the middle of nowhere during the late 60's & 70's and our TV watching options were very limited. Since PBS was one of the clearest stations to receive it became a staple of afternoon viewing when we got home from school. I remember watching cooking tutorials and Bob Ross everyday for years during elementary and middle school. I don't think that either of us realized at the time how truly blessed we were. I love your painting, and more importantly, I think that Bob would, too. Job well done!

Love Bob Ross! I also love your sense of adventure in exploring art methods 😊😊😊

Woah! How fun!

Yay! This completely reminds me of when I first tried using oil paint back in 2013/14. So fun and so frustrating at the same time.

Yes I am enjoying watching you explore new mediums!! Oil paints are something I have yet to try myself. I have watched so many Bob Ross videos, he is such a joy to watch. Couple possible tips: 1) pretty sure Bob uses a special liquid white to prep his canvas. He says it makes it slick. 2) pretty sure you can only use acrylic and oil paints, but only as oil over acrylic. Acrylic does not stick to oil but oil will stick to acrylic. So acrylic back ground would work. Happy painting!!

Been waiting for this since the color match challenge!

I’m an oil painter. My instructor thins (moisturizes?) his paint with turpentine. He’s painted for over 40 years so I definitely know he’s tried everything under the sun! Some might not want to work with turpentine but it does work like a charm to make the paint smoother and easier to work with and blend. Honestly-as an oil painter - I find it difficult to do a bob ross painting too! PS- you can only use acrylic and oil together if you use the acrylic FIRST! You can paint on top of acrylic with oil but not the other way around 👍🏼

It's beautiful!

Wood burning art. Can be a cool medium attempt. As for the oil paints: those do not mix with acrylics (mixing the two is a big no in painting), layers need time to dry (days), layers can take longer to dry or less time depending on mediums mixed into the paints (galkyd=less time, linseed oil=more time), paint “application” impacts dry time (thicker paint will take longer, this painting done in video may take “months” to dry just based on how thick the application was), oil painting has rules that mainly factor into time (fat over lean is most important probably, meaning each layer needs to have more oil content mixed in otherwise cracking happens if top layer has less oil than bottom). As for the substrate (canvas), that requires prep work before an oil painting is done since oil will destroy the fabric or the wood (don’t get oil painting on raw wood that hasn’t been prepped). Prepping can be done by “sizing” and then acrylic gesso (oil can be applied “over” acrylic like gesso but never “under”, another big no). Also to keep note, environmental factors will impact the work such as humidity, dust, and vibrations. Oil paints can be stored when covered with wrapping (in fridge, keeping paint mixtures lasting longer). Gamsol is a common solvent used, pretty toxic so don’t breath it in or get it on skin. As for cleaning brush, you can use dish cleaning soap, I found it really gets the oil out while not really destroying brushes the same as solvents like Gamsol.

You did way better than I did my first try with oil. Bob ross makes it look easy and so do you. I use acrylic to paint and even acrylic guache. I tried oil painting and started with a greyscale. I learned that the techniques I was used to when using acrylic was different than oil. With acrylic you can flip your brush over and it be the same color but when using oil if you flip your brush over the tones will be different.

But it's just because I want all those unnaturally gifted people will see how it's like to be in our uncoordinated shoes for once. 😅 I loved the results and the process, don't know how you managed to save all of your pieces and make them so well, again, like in many of your videos. But I like watching you go through the awkward faze with us on video and still say you enjoyed the process. Thank you for that.

Loved this. You are bold and like that you try new things. Something that I have tried before is using the same reference photo in different techniques to broaden my learning and really see how to approach the effect that I want in the technique that I need. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, but it is fun. I normally do this using thumbnails (not the same as for the videos), these are mini paintings to establish shapes, color and light before attempting a larger scale work. If you want to learn more about thumbnails with oil paintings then watch the videos of James Gurney. His books are also a good reference. Thanks for the video!

It turned out so beautiful. My first experience with oil which wasna couple days ago irritated me so bad. Now watching your video makes me want to give it a try again. It was hard because I didn't have linseed oil which I need to get before trying again.

Omg you did so well without using Liquin original!! That's his not-so-secret secret! I think he glosses over it in the beginning of his shows but doesn't often mention it afterwards. He preps the canvas with that first and gets those beautiful blends. But yes, as someone else said that's how he blends so well! Adding a teensy bit of linseed oil will also make it glide more too. Just don't go overboard with it or it'll turn into a glaze. Seriously though, as someone who does oil paint, it turned out really well for your first time!! Keep going - I think you'll love it once you get a hang of it. So fun to watch!! Edited to add: the other great thing with oils is if you don't like an area, you can scrape or wipe it off. Oil paints can only be coaxed to dry faster by a fast drying medium and thin layers (some paints like the water soluble oils dry faster than traditional oils - they can also be used with acrylic mediums to speed up drying or for effects). Seriously girl, bravo for jumping straight in like you did 👏🏽 I thoroughly loved watching this 💙

If you like mixing colours, watercolours or fountain pen inks are loads of fun to mix and paint with! I did an entire month of paintings once by just using four CMYK fountain pen inks and mixing and painting with them like watercolour.

You did well regardless 👏👏👏
