Hi, Paul! Tell Barry thank you for showing us his brush collection and for teaching us newbies the valuable lesson that improving our skills (and not buying more and more brushes) is the real answer we're seeking for progress in our painting. I also have learned that a simple palette is better than collecting every color on the art store shelves. 😂 Loved the field trip through the store. And especially the sponge and brush trimming demonstrations!! I have been too nervous to trim a brush yet, but i liked your observation that ragged and uneven can be the best for certain effects! Thanks for all your wonderful videos! I look forward to them each week. Best wishes from Utah! 🌷
Hi Erica - yes, field trips are always fun with a few sound effects! I catch myself lovingly fiddling with brushes, pencils, pens and art stuff whenever I visit my favourite art stores. I then buy the single tube of paint on my shopping list! That list has saved me sooo many times! I've recycled my old fans for ages. Once you trim one up the way I showed in the video it will become a favourite for those small random lights and flecks of colour in your painting. I used the one I made in my next painting. Look out for it! Happy painting - Paul 😃🥰😎
Oh yeah- you have a great collection of the Bob Ross brushes!!! Wow - I have the landscape- many but not the wildlife and florals- that’s a great thing!!! I never thought the brushes would make me a better painter- in the beginning it was just something about finding a great brush that felt good-- after buying many brands- even from the famous brush company in the UK- Bob’s are the best!!!
What a relieve to see you trimming your brush. So long a time I did it secretly because I thought they are holy for artists 😂 your way of teaching is such a tremendous gift. You give so much encouragement. You really make dreams come true 🎉
Hi Reni - I've cut up a lot of old brushes over the years! Not always very well either. But this is one of my favourite hair cuts and works a treat. Happy painting too - Paul 😃😍😎
Brilliant video Paul, I think we all can relate to having too many brushes, that will make us a better painter! 😜 Love the sound effects, racing through the store, and Barry!!! And I love how you teach and produce these, well done! 👍👍❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻
Hi Kathy - yes the medium of video suits my slightly hair brained mind! Too many brushes .... well maybe. Have a great week from us all here plus Barry of course 😄😍😎
I have a alot of 2-inch brushes and a lot of pallette knives. I totally can see how getting different brands gives me the idea that it will help me improve, but it is within ourselves to keep working and keep creating
The Princeton series 3750 small light blue handled brushes are great- the dagger brush from this series is wonderful!! Can be used for so many different subjects- mountain highlights- cloud outer contours- highlights- great for sea foam- water lines and more- foliage- branches- I was a brush hoarder years ago- I can say that of all the brushes- the Bob Ross is the best- his wildlife and floral brushes can be used with landscape- seascapes and cloudscapes as well- I haven’t seen the Ross newer brushes- I’ve heard they changed manufacturers years ago- not sure what if any they changed the bristles quality- The 1-2 inch and landscape brushes- the bristles are the best - there’s so many that try to duplicate the 1- and 2 inch brushes- but they’re using hog hair and it’s not the same- For acrylic painters- there’s the flat thin (Teflon bristles) 1-2 inch - checkout Art of John Magne Lisandro (I advised him about this brush few years ago) and he’s been using it since- see how wonderful he blocks in underpainting and how he uses the flat thin 1-2 inch - John refers to (nylon) however his brushes are not nylon/ nylon doesn’t work at all for acrylic- Anyway- don’t waste money - and if your oil painting using the layer method and or Alla Prima (wet on wet) the Ross brushes are best!! Even his hog flat and filberts are best quality!! The Princeton series 3750 like the dagger a must have- and have a look- there’s others good for detailing buildings- creating bricks and such- A great brush for creating grass- on a large surface like 16/20 and larger- is the flat hog brush - by Artist Wilson Bickford- think he advertises it as his grass brush/ he also has good wet on wet lessons- he was a nice man passed away unfortunately- years ago I helped him with his brush collection-- his flat synthetic is a good on for blocking in - and use the Ross 2 inch to blend - And great for florals - lines and such- can be used with acrylic- as well….
Wow, sounds like you have quite the encyclopedic knowlage of brushes. And I though I had a pretty good idea. Funnily enough the video hinted at my journey - that I ended up still using the same brushes I started with. Add to that my own designs and it boils down to 5 -6 brushes I use all the time. If ever I get stuck I'll come to you for advise - Paul 😃😍😎
Thanks Paul, you have me beat on brushes. I have 50 years worth and some of them I had to throw out years ago. I try to save as many as I can because they don’t make great quality brushes anymore. I still have some real sable brushes from way back (40 years ago) that I just love to paint with. Most brushes today are a blend of this and that and are not like they use to be. 🖌️🖌️🖌️
Hi Jann - funny but I don't remember buying all of them! In fact the biggest number are donations given to me my folk who have come across them usually during a house clearance. Most are great for kids so I pass them on but now and then a really good one turns up. Yes, they don't make them like they used to. I still have a set or two of the original 'Made in the USA' Bob Ross brushes. They feel different and work lovely. Happy Painting - Paul 😃🥰
USA aspiring artist here. I am really enjoying your videos. I am constantly learning a new technique to add to my tricks for painting. But I'm really picky who i watch and who I learn from. And your videos are right up my alley. Thanks for being amazing!
Wow Dianne - no pressure then! TBH I'm a little the same. If I click with someone I watch everything and learn as much as possible and try as many time to master it too. Have fun on the journey with me - Paul 😃
THAT was a FUN Video Paul. 🤣 But I must tell you, that I love those 3 brushes that you say DON'T buy on your YT Thumbnail. Those are great brushes for so many things like grasses, backgrounds, trees and really saves wear and tear on your good Bob Ross brushes for things like scrubbing on canvas. I use them all the time. Too bad the Ross company will not allowed me to use them for making my Bob Ross Tutorials. 😢 Big art hugs 💕🤗🎨.
Hi Yovette - yes I like them too but they were the newest brushes I had for the photo! Just a bit of fun but I hope with a point. Back to the easel now - Love as always - Paul 😃😍
@@PaintingWithYovette yes that's the one. I did a speed film at the start around the store for fun. It's the roll of paper I pulled from the rack. It's a regular decorating lining paper so cheap to buy or get online. Give it a go. Just remember to give it a coat or two of gesso or acrylic to seal it up. I've even use a thinned emulsion paint when I was stuck for paint during our Covid lockdown. Have fun
Thanks for reminding me I don't need new equipment to keep on creating Paul ! I want to find a way to make this my career I've never had any interests in creating like this before but I've been slacking lately not trusting in my skills when I should be listening to you. Just practice away no new equipment is always required
Yes, Josh. I started with just the very basic kit because that's all I could afford. Necessity taught me to use what I had to the very nth degree. It was more by luck that this turned out to be exactly the right thing to do. Once I had mastered those first 5 colours and brushes I felt it was time to explore. But I only added a brush or two at a time. So here we are a lifetime later and I'm still just using the same basic kit. Carry on being creative and sharing your work. Happy Painting - Paul 😃😃
@PaulRansonArt thanks for the words of motivation as always Paul. And P.S are we getting another "Spooky" style painting this year ? I really enjoyed the last one
What a magnificent collection of brushes ole Barry has there. Even if you, I mean he never uses them all, it's still quite an impressive collection to have - kinda like me and the firearms collection, haha! Great video, Paul - thank you sir. Have a great week ahead and keep cool, my friend. It's miserably hot here in Houston too!
Hey there Steve - yes quite a hoarder is Barry. Thankfully it's cooled a little here in the UK and It's cooler on the coast where we are. Unlike London where I was born. It's always so much hotter in the city. Glad I don't live there anymore. Have a great week too😃😎
Hi Jonathan - when my brushes start fighting back or not holding paint the way I want then its usually a sign. Some work longer and are just great. Others are stinkers from the start. Its what happened with natural bristles. Man-made synthetic brushes are far more consistent but lack feel. So there is your choice. - Paul 😄😍😎
Hi Uli - thats absolutly fine. Your such a lovely person for all the great support you give. Hope you have a super week and maybe we'll say 'hi' next Sunday - Big art hug - Paul 😃😍
Hi Paul! Thanks for taking the time to make this very fun informative video! I have acquired several fan brushes that either have become “unusable” or too crunchy, frayed, etc. one way I use them is for sandy bits on my seascapes. I’m now going to try your trimming tip so my seascapes will have great grassy effects. Hmmm, wonder where Barry lives that he needs a stocking hat.. it’s so hot this summer! Maybe,perhaps all the way up in Svalbard! 😮hopefully your area has cooled somewhat for you! 🖌️🎨🤩🤗
Hi Stephanie - yes, that Barry fellow is a bit odd. He left the studio and swiped my new 'grass brush' for his collection. Ah well hope the therapy works. Thankfully we will have some cooler weather and I can resume the painting. Its as dry as a bone now. But as there's no blending I might just carry on with it as is. Now where's my 1" brush gone ...... Barry!🤔🤣
@@PaulRansonArt 😂 he’s a stinker! I am happy for you though that cooler temps are coming! I have a question, if a almost finished painting is dry, and you need to only finish one small area, do we simply use a dab of linseed and brush it in (then wipe excess) to continue? It’s something I want to do with a seascape I feel is boring. The grasses need something to give depth. I’m thinking of adding some deeper value to the washed out monotony of the green. Highlights will not really help. I’m going to try to use the “new” trimmed brush too.
@@SRTW67 Hi Stephanie - my rule of thumb is - if it's a layer of detail ( like adding some grasses ) that doesn't need blending then I carry on with a dry canvas. But if you're looking to add a layer of colour for a wash or glaze then I rewet the canvas with some linseed oil and as you mention blot off the excess. Re-darkening the grasses is definitely the way to go. If brighter highlights have already been applied, darker colours will make them really pop. See my video from the other week where I did a simple forest walk. The few grasses that jumped off the canvas only did so because of the shadows around them. Have fun and do a little then stand back. Enjoy your first play with the 'new' brush too. I'm using mine again right now! _Paul 😄😄😍😍😎😎
Hello Deb - lovely to hear from you. We'll the old home studio looks a little different now its used for filming. But yes, we had some fun with our art didn't we! Hope all is going well for you and that your still painting up a storm. All best wishes and big arty hugs - Paul and family🥰
Yep Paul I am as guilty as Barry with my brush's but have calmed it down now,,,,,,orders off the misses but I also have some butchered brush's planning on a bit plain air paintings now the nrk Pauleat woice weather is here for a few weeks.....keep up the great work Paul
Thanks, Bill. I'm looking forward to a bit of plain air painting myself or as the French say "painting outdoors". I have a scene I'd like to paint but it is a bit of a trek so maybe some water colour pencils for a sketch first. Have a cooler week - Paul 😃😎
Super late to this, but I was wondering, could I use Masters Brush Cleaner soap on these? I paint with acrylics (found a liquid white equivalent recipe online and Golden Open acrylics for longer dry time to achieve wet on wet) and I have heard some people use the Masters on their BRI brushes, but make sure to wrap the bristles in paper towels while drying so they don't frey. Would this kill your brushes? The thinner is a little pricey for me at the moment. Thanks, Bram!
Hi Benny - Paul here! I love Master Brush Soap but only for my liners, fans and filbers. As you mention washing the bigger Bob Ross brushes makes them splay apart and they need wrapping. Over time the brush loses its shape and goes soft. Not good. I use a product called Zest-it. A cirrus cleaner that lasts well. I wash the brushes and let the thinners settle below a screen. I can use the thinners over and over allowing the paint to settle below a screen. After a few paintings ( 10+) I change the thinners. 😃😎
Thanks Paul, for a minute I thought you had a twin brother, then I caught on, lol. Question, in your shopping you picked up a roll of paper, what is that for? Your brush collection is awesome
Hi Deanie - thats the roll of lining paper I turn into my paper DIY canvases. Its the money saving hack I've used for years. Cheap as chips and when dry, so easy to store. Barry says 'hi' - he's waving a brush at the screen 🤣
@@deaniecoleholland5551 I do! Have a look at my playlist of videos. I did some called Getting Started with Oils (GSWO). I cover brushes, paints and DIY canvases and how to make them. Its all there so hope its helps - Paul 😄😄

I haven’t seen the Ross newer brushes- I’ve heard they changed manufacturers years ago- not sure what if any they changed the bristles quality-
The 1-2 inch and landscape brushes- the bristles are the best - there’s so many that try to duplicate the 1- and 2 inch brushes- but they’re using hog hair and it’s not the same-
For acrylic painters- there’s the flat thin (Teflon bristles) 1-2 inch - checkout Art of John Magne Lisandro (I advised him about this brush few years ago) and he’s been using it since- see how wonderful he blocks in underpainting and how he uses the flat thin 1-2 inch -
John refers to (nylon) however his brushes are not nylon/ nylon doesn’t work at all for acrylic-
Anyway- don’t waste money - and if your oil painting using the layer method and or Alla Prima (wet on wet) the Ross brushes are best!! Even his hog flat and filberts are best quality!!
