Bill Alexander! Bob Ross's predecessor. He's one of the reasons I paint. I break down full sheets of paper, stretch them and make my own blocks with PVA glue. Great video.
Yes! Bill Alexander, I forgot his name. 😊🖐🏼🥇 I’ve been using green painters tape to hold the individual sheets down. I used to paint on the blocks but moisture in very wet paintings get into the next or several sheets and I was ending up with surfaces that were not flat. Then individual sheets do get a bit wavy sometimes if I un-tape them too soon so I flatten them by misting the back of the paintings and press them in a watercolour paper “sandwich” and something heavy on top until they dry overnight. Works well! Great idea making your own blocks! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, cheers, Mike
I simply meant that on PBS Bill Alexander came first. He was Happy Little Trees and Bob was Happy Little accidents. I was lucky enough to learn from both.@@beckyraver7959
