His technique is more adventurous than Bob Ross who studied under him. I love how Bill takes chances.

We are so blessed to have this amazing light in our lives! And how fitting to hear forever after! Energy is a cool thing, who is to say Bill isnt right here literally with each and everyone of us. What i know is this box we live in has fear in it which fear imposes great limits, just as Love imposes only Love and all that is good! Just like Bill is the creator of this beautiful Art so to are each and every one of us creators of our own realities. Don’t believe in fear it’s not what the universe/you are, you are Love so instead of creating the life of a victim “Fear” we create from Love and most literally create Heaven right here on Earth! Just like how Bill is living and the Earth is still his loving playground. I know i invite him over at least once per evening! So Blessed!!! 🎁♥️

I love and miss this guy!

Wow, I can't believe this guy is still around! He taught me to paint on PBS back in the early 80's. It's great to see him again. Although I stopped painting long ago, this really brought back some good memories.

Such a beautiful human being and fantastic teacher of art and life 😊

One of the best so far! Love how he can paint a beautiful painting and spend a few minutes talking about how important happiness is.

I love Bill! Great techniques! He sounds like my Opa! Brings back great memories!

Bill is the best. Such a calming presence, truly warms my heart.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for this! It's like discovering gold when you guys release free Bill Alexander lessons.

This guy was incredible! He always took a bunch of time in the beginning of each episode having a lengthy and pleasant conversation with his viewers which bit into his limited painting time which concerned me that he wouldn't be able to finish, but then he gets to it and always SMASHES it! What a talent!

C R oh how we worried if he would finish! He did love to talk but what is less known is that he was letting the Magic White “set up” while he talked.

Bob Ross was his student

So amusing yet lovely paintings makes it look so easy

For some reason, I prefer a limited color palette painting. I love to see what artists can do with just a few different colors.

You only need about 4 or 5 and you can pritty much make any colour.

watched him on pbs ,gave me hope in a terrible place i was in...

Very good excellent job you very well drawing especially painting Thanks you

this makes me so happy seeing more bill episodes and not just like 1 every few months ;3;

My best artist. So original. It makes me happy. Thanks

Oh so powerful I really love you clouds, and the light pass through. Amazing what only 2 colors can create lol... Bob know he couldn't create a better monosaturated painting. Good job

Thank you so much, that's how I learn to paint. What a nice man.

Thanks again!! These are a God send.

Brings back so many memories 😊

He calms me and make me feel well.

Love watching him and seeing his work.

Good shots of the paint coming off the brush.

A magnificent painting!👌

0:58 - Right on Bill's palette: Three colors and white. Wow!! :-D

Bill's paintings seem more diverse and less formulaic than Bob's. Having said that, I watch them both regularly...

I agree. I think compared to Bill Bob was more limited..

Thank you for posting this 😀

Bob Ross’s mentor by the way. They battled a little bit when he accused Bob of stealing his thunder

Thank you Laurie, again.

Thanks for the posts!

Yes!! Another vid💞

Oh you have stolen my heart xxx

“On the sunny side of the street....”

He beat the devil out of it.

What a happy day!

Bob really did steal this guys thing, even beating the brush . Different personalities but definitly the same technique

I've always thought the Bill was more creative in mixing color than was Bob. More variety and subtlety.

andrew marlowe - I wouldn’t exactly say ‘steal’ as Bob clearly stated that he learned this technique from the great Bill Alexander.

Único, amo!

Bill actually painted portraits while he was a POW in World War 2.

@rewired1108

Yes, as a prisoner of war he painted many allied officers and their wives portraits. In all these TV demonstrations, the seemingly random way he lays down paint, whether palette knife or any size brushes, conceals the meticulously careful way he positions those tools and how delicately he crafts his movements on the canvass. This is someone who learnt their care through portraiture. Unlike Bob Ross, who through every TV painting, never got this level of control, and despite watching Bob for 20 years, never went beyond the basic shaping of things. I have been painting portraits pastels, oil, acrylic for 30 years now, I was an admirer of Bob Ross up until two weeks ago, until I discovered Bill Alexander then, and Bill's talent for painting and teaching is far above Bob Ross'. I say this, with a heavy heart since both of them are no longer with us, and the tragedy in the the way Bob died, in similar circumstances to my first wife (she was the one who drew my attention to Bob Ross on TV). Bill is the artist I would like to be.

Is so nais but no speak much and work more.
