You are an awesome teacher. I have not come across any person explaining in such details. Thank you so much and may God bliss you and keep you happy all the time. Love from Pakistan
I know what it is like to start painting with no clear direction from anyone ha ha ha. I am glad I could help you out. Make sure to hit that sub button for more awesome videos.
I love himi miya gouache paint. I don,t use oil,acrylic or watercolours. I use gouache,watercolour paint brushes and water😊i love clouds. The fluffier the better😂🤣☁️👍🏾🎨👋🏾✌🏾🫶🏾
I love painting pink clouds. They remind me of cotton candy that i always buyed and eat wen i was 14 from the fair in my small town. I love these clouds even tho they are not pink🤣🤣🤣🤣✌🏾👋🏾👍🏾thanks again @Wildcreates
Thank you very much I work very hard on it. I have two more in-depth videos (plus working on more). Check them out below: - Sky: ruclips.net/video/m_LTAgS7RCg/видео.html - Mountains: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
I've recently looked at so many artists on You Tube here showing us beginners how to do clouds. I'm going to finally try it. I like the techniques you've shown, but I especially appreciate your energy and humor. Who would think it is difficult to take the first step and start painting, but it is (for some of us.) Your happy video helps me think it really IS time I try.
Thank you for the kind words - I kinda do off the wall art adventure video on this channel. You might enjoy those... I will attach them below: Hill: ruclips.net/video/T1UxQbSQ0NQ/видео.html Dana Point: ruclips.net/video/z52_bMcB9uM/видео.html
I was actually talking this morning about my struggles with clouds…. Then I see this video! 😁👍 perfect timing and you are so clear and detailed in your instructions. Thank you!
I love your videos and how they give insight into Bob Ross style painting, especially how to do it in acrylics. But, this is the probably your most helpful video. I have seen Bob do this technique quickly many times on his show but your breakdown really helps explain it better. Thanks!
Wow, thank you! I plan on doing one for each segment in a painting - I think next will be mountains. So make sure you hit that sub button to know when it goes live.
If you like this one then you are gunna love the one I did on mountains. I go super in-depth to make it easy for you. Feel free to check it out here: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
I just discovered you, THANK YOU!! I appreciate your words of wisdom and will be incorporating that into my paintings. I am from Washington State and the contrast between forest and desert is amazing. The deep valleys and evergreens with plateaus on either side. I love the beauty of the forest stopping and where desert begins. I am searching for tutorials on these extremes to paint. Do you have any ideas on this? Again, thank you.
Here is one not alot of people can do and there arent many good tutorials on youtube - big rocks and big stones (like on big beach seascapes) , maybe using the pallette knife or a brush Also, I really liked the format of the video - maybe you could've shown how to scrub clouds using a filbert brush, but fan brush is awesome too 1 more thing you can show - two toned sunset clouds can be hard, since sunsets have alot more colors than just blue.
I plan on doing a series of clouds so maybe I can show you how I do it with a filbert and the two toned clouds. As so rocks, I will add it to the list buddy :)
Thanks for the video and your tips. I would love to learn how to paint sea foam... How it reaches the sand... with all the motion and reflection etc... thanks 😊🌸🌊
You are super welcome buddy - Now that you have clouds down. Time to move onto mountains which you can see below: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html&t
Glad it was helpful buddy - We can call it even by you smashing that Sub Button. If you liked this one... You will love the mountain one I did. Check it out below: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html

>mountains, trees, water? All of the above please Finally gave in to inspiration and am officially starting oil painting and every tip and tutorial helps This has been extremely helpful
@@WildCreates I think the biggest thing I'm struggling with is properly handling the palette knife. That thing is powerful and I have no idea what I'm doing, gonna probably look through your videos for more on the subject
Awesome - Thanks for the feedback. I have a video that might help you out til I make another video for ya... Check it out below: ruclips.net/video/I5v4bSUzFBI/видео.html
Glad you enjoyed it. I just dropped a super in-depth mountain video that you might like. Feel free to check it out: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
I have used some of your advice and techniques. I just started trying to paint and started with this style. First I tried acrylics As that is what I had on hand, On an 11 by 14 canvas board. I wet the back before I started, Which kept everything wet enough until I finished. It came out okay, But it was a little difficult because I couldn't really figure out how to make the paint layer as well as Bob describes and shows in his painting instruction. So I got some oils and tried it on another 11x14 canvas board. Painted with linseed oil on the back before I started so the paint wouldn't soak in. This one came out very good, considering it was the first real try. I showed it to my daughter-in-law who is an artist and she said it was amazing for a first try. I have a feeling it was more difficult because the canvas area was smaller. Also I used a smaller tear off pallet pad which also made it more difficult since there wasn't as much room to mix colors. Nevertheless, It turned out well. I do have a little background in art, but just in sketching and perspective from an Art instructions school when I was a teenager. I do seem to have a natural instinct for perspective and arrangement of items in a picture, but otherwise I have no training. I would send you a picture of it, but I can't figure out how to do that. :) I also found a deal on Amazon for pallet knives. I think I have found the company that makes the Bob Ross knives. It is called Phoenix, Gazeer. The way to look it up is to look for "Gazeer 2pcs Painting Knife - Two Palette Knives - Thin and Flexible Art Tools for Oil Painting, Acrylic Mixing, Etc." As far as I can tell they are the same flexibility and rigidness as the Bob Ross knives for less than 10% of the price, only $6.99. If a lot of people start buying them they might raise the price I don't know.
I am glad to hear that you are having so much fun with your art adventures :) You can always send me what you paint via social media... twitter, IG and such... that info is in the video descriptions.
This video is perfect for you and should help a ton. Just follow the steps in the video and go really slow and things will start to click. Even better re-watch it as you test paint some clouds and you will see what you are doing right and wrong :) Make sure to hit that SUB button for more awesome videos.
I really like how you taught us how to hold the brush for painting the clouds. I wish you would do maybe another nebula video and also teaches how to do the same thing I’ve been absolutely trying, but I think learning how to make clouds will help a lot.
@@WildCreates so I finished a painting last evening following "Paintings by Justin" and the clouds actually turned out much better. You're the man, man!
OH hell yaa. I am glad this video is turning you into a cloud master... Next up mountains which I have a video on that too he he he: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
Cheers for taking the time to make this tutorial. I didn't hear this mentioned, so I'll ask. How far after painting the blue did you start painting the clouds? How wet was the blue before the white went on? The blue seemed wet enough to blend, but I'm very new to this and I need a bit more instruction please.
When painting like Bob Ross ( aka wet on wet ) you can paint immediately on top of another layer. So you can paint your sky.... then move on to your clouds within moments. Having the paint wet allows you to achieve awesome blending effects. I hope that helps
Glad it helped a lot - I am slowly working on making videos for all the major elements in a painting. The last one we did was mountains ( ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbUh/видео.htmlttps://ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html ). Feel free to check it out... Trees is on the list. Be sure to hit that sub button to know when it goes live. Until then I do have an older tree video that might help.... give it a peak: ruclips.net/video/kYWI3BAu-6k/видео.html
Cool video wild. i guess the technique is the same if doing rainy/ thunderstorm clouds. this lessons are so cool am practising loads of cloud trees and mountains on my canvas pad. i guess i would love to see waterfalls, like in rivendell LOTR. and thank you for doing the peace at the end of the video the right way!! XXXXXX
Tysvm 4 sharing this u r telling it realy clear and with a sense of humor I wonder how to paint a fern... is there an easy way..... for now i haven't found it yet A BIG like 4u
Me, as a leftie who paints upside down, trying to figure out the angles. HAHA. Thank you for the tips, ESPECIALLY to leave that top edge alone when blending. BIG THUMBS UP for this video. 👍
Oh you lefties... I feel for ya on people teaching. I feel like I do a decent job of sharing my tips where it should make easy sense for lefties too :)
@@WildCreates Yes, the tips are absolutely wonderful. I find that physically flipping the canvas/paper 90 degrees or 180 degrees helps me get the angles that are much easier for right-handed people. The only real disadvantage I've found, as a lefty, is that 90% of ink + gel pens do not function properly, which is why I really prefer using art mediums with paintbrushes.
There is this easel I am trying to get that free rotates while holding your canvas. would be great for someone like your. Hopefully I will get to make a video on it.
Yes it can, however you might need to use some mediums to achieve certain effects and styles... Plus you might have to work in sections since acrylics dry faster. I have 2 videos that might interest you that I will attach below. One on acrylic mediums and the other on how to paint this way with acrylics: Medium: ruclips.net/video/nI5D-HC7e5o/видео.html Tutorial: ruclips.net/video/LFqd-jj1lQ8/видео.html Clouds: ruclips.net/video/-L3vH5lG3RI/видео.html
This was extremely helpful very great explanation and breaking it down! I would like if you did a water and ocean waves tutorial please! Thanks a bunch Wild
@@WildCreates With reflection of sun parts and Making waves. Also Wild I’ve searched your page and I’ve been wanting to do a northern lights winter theme, can you do me a big favor and do a tutorial? Thanks a bunch wild!
You have 2 options... You can still use the same big brushes but learn to control them with smaller stokes and only use the corners of the brush OR invest in smaller brushes. Honestly I do a combo of both ha ha ha Make sure to hit that SUB BUTTON for more awesome content and to help support the channel!
Can you make a video on how to blend the sky from the top of the sky to the bottom and one top edge of the sky slightly bluer or darker than the other side.
Just follow this video . Just use the colors you want and pull the color all the way down to where you need it: ruclips.net/video/m_LTAgS7RCg/видео.html
Awesome video as always! Can you give a guide on how to paint a middle area? Like some distant trees that are in front of a mountain, but behind water?
Hey Wildcreates how are you doing? 😊 can you please paint whit gouache? 😅😅😅😅it would be fun to see how a oil painter handle,s a waterbased paint. I love fluffy big pink clouds 😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊 happy painting to you Wildcreates ✌🏾👋🏾🎨
Thanks Wild, always enjoy your videos. We'll practice these based upon what you taught today! I LOVE the advice you gave about just working on one cloud at a time. Is the Windsor paint more thick than the Ross paint? Blending (super light strokes) is still SO difficult.
Glad you are enjoy them - Make sure to check out the sky tutorial that goes with this too - It will help you a lot. In addition I am working on a mountain tutorial too. Now you will have half of a painting that I walk you through :) Sky: ruclips.net/video/m_LTAgS7RCg/видео.html WN paint is way way thicker/firmer than BRI paint. When it comes to blending lightly... use a smaller brush till your hands and arm develop muscle memory for the light touch. Then swap over to a bigger brush :)
I would love some help doing bob Ross style with acrylics? I've been doing it for awhile now and they come out good. I have trouble making a prominent foreground and adding details though.
If you think you are using to much thinner then you are ha ha ha. I think I have a video on what I do. I will attach it below: ruclips.net/video/9ABfigTK8dU/видео.html
Glad this video could help you out. Now you can move onto the next step which is mountains... which you can see here: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html Happy painting!
To be honest it doesn't mater... The more free and lose you can be with it, the better results you have. People over think it. Just go at it, you will be amazed at the clouds you can make when you follow this video 💪
Thanks man for the beginner tips, boy I need them, hopeless at painting clouds. By the way can you suggest a cheaper brand of bristle brush? I have a tough time tracking down some place that sells bristle brushes here in South Australia. It's all synthetic these days and they don't do the job. Something a little less expensive than a Bob Ross 2" and 1" brush. I just don't have that kind of money. I have to save up or sell something each time I want to buy more paints. I'm not complaining, I'm having so much fun learning from you and Bob. Thanks Wild Creates
I just released a starter packet that you can download that shows and goes over best affordable starter supplies. The download has localizing links in it should take you to supplies located in your country or region. Give it a go: payhip.com/b/qzxK1
Hey thanks for the starter pack, well received. Q. do you have any issues with your bristle brushes in terms of the corners, when you're blending, going all different directions? When I watch you or Bob Ross blend with say a 2" brush, the corner looks like it all stays together rather than splaying out. Is that what it's supposed to do?
OK so that is all about 2 things: - Makes sure you clean your brushes well and use conditioner to shape them. This will help keep the bristles clean and straight allowing them to be closer together. Attached is a video on the conditioner I use: ruclips.net/video/gDaoXPk-nWQ/видео.html - You need to use a lot more paint, when you saturate your brush with paint. The bristles will stick together more. I hope that helps.
@@WildCreates hi Wild, yes, I'm Italian. I often use Maimeri's paints and I like them, but for the snow I Always used Bob's White Paint, so I'm curious about It, thanks 😊
@@WildCreates already had man and left likes. I had the day off and as I had ordered a bunch of paint and utensils I've been binging your channel all day
Hell ya buddy - let me know how it goes with those new paints. Also thanks for the support, you can always help out by watching the videos in their entirety and leaving comments on them :)
Yes you can - I personally reccomend you work in stages though due to the shorter drying time. Take a look at the video below to see some tips on advice on how to do it with acrylics: ruclips.net/video/LFqd-jj1lQ8/видео.html
This is astonishingly difficult. If the white paint is too thin you’re not covering the blue. Too thick and pulling the two-inch brush leaves bristle marks. At least, at the lightest I could pull the brush. Still, the detailed discussions are much appreciated.
If it was easy, everyone could do it ha ha ha. You are not wrong... it can be very challenging BUT I know you can do it. As dumb as it sounds, you just need to practice it over and over. Watch the video again and again in steps and do 1 full painting that is just clouds. Do 1 cloud at a time... each cloud you do will be better and better... then it will start to click.
That's hard to answer because everyone has a different style and what will feel comfortable to them. Check out my video that drops tomorrow morning. In that video I talk about brushes and canvases :)
Hey Wildcreates how are you doing? I was wondering if you could draw or paint characters or people instead of clouds😂😅Don,t get me wrong i love you,re clouds. I have sketched/drawn the Joker as a break out prisoner and Harley Quin whit her Guns and her bat who comes to rescue him from the movie suicide squad. Take care and as always happy painting😊👍🏾👋🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾🌊🎨☁️ i love you,re cloud paintings
Yes but you will have to work a little quicker and add a little medium to your paint to keep it wet. Or you can see how I do it with acrylics here: ruclips.net/video/-L3vH5lG3RI/видео.html
Two minutes in and I am already appreciating the level of detail he's going into. Nothing irritates me more than overly simplified and over casual tutorials.
I appreciate that a lot - I know what it is like to start out and find no clear help out there... Hence why I started to make videos that are relatable with a dash of humor in there. If you like this video check out my one on mountains: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.htmlsi=KW3mJdK5D9BP2g18 Also don't forget to subscribe to see more helpful videos
LOL jizzing paint onto the canvas.😂 and Effortlessly was anything but. It’s little things like that that are so entertaining, (besides the obvious value of the content)!
Hey Wild how are you doing? I am good still not good as in happy but i will get there😊 do you wanna buy my oil paints and oil paints suplies? I don,t use it anymore. I only paint whit himi miya gouache 56 set now. I love you,re clouds. Please make them fluffy,bigger and pink🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☁️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wait until the sky drys😊 Use water mixable oils. I just started using them. They're legit oils that have an emulsifier in it. No more terps to clean up. Water and a little soap and ur done
You are an awesome teacher. I have not come across any person explaining in such details. Thank you so much and may God bliss you and keep you happy all the time. Love from Pakistan

Glad it helped a lot - I am slowly working on making videos for all the major elements in a painting. The last one we did was mountains ( ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbUh/видео.htmlttps://ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html ). Feel free to check it out... Trees is on the list. Be sure to hit that sub button to know when it goes live.
Until then I do have an older tree video that might help.... give it a peak: ruclips.net/video/kYWI3BAu-6k/видео.html
Cool video wild. i guess the technique is the same if doing rainy/ thunderstorm clouds. this lessons are so cool am practising loads of cloud trees and mountains on my canvas pad. i guess i would love to see waterfalls, like in rivendell LOTR. and thank you for doing the peace at the end of the video the right way!! XXXXXX
For Storm clouds yes. just start with a darker grey color and and highlights from there.
I will add waterfalls to the list :)
@@WildCreates Thanks sweetie look forward to it.
❤❤❤
Tysvm 4 sharing this u r telling it realy clear and with a sense of humor
I wonder how to paint a fern... is there an easy way..... for now i haven't found it yet
A BIG like 4u
Glad you enjoyed the video. I will see what I can do about ferns for ya in a future video.
Me, as a leftie who paints upside down, trying to figure out the angles. HAHA. Thank you for the tips, ESPECIALLY to leave that top edge alone when blending. BIG THUMBS UP for this video. 👍
Oh you lefties... I feel for ya on people teaching. I feel like I do a decent job of sharing my tips where it should make easy sense for lefties too :)
@@WildCreates Yes, the tips are absolutely wonderful. I find that physically flipping the canvas/paper 90 degrees or 180 degrees helps me get the angles that are much easier for right-handed people. The only real disadvantage I've found, as a lefty, is that 90% of ink + gel pens do not function properly, which is why I really prefer using art mediums with paintbrushes.
There is this easel I am trying to get that free rotates while holding your canvas. would be great for someone like your. Hopefully I will get to make a video on it.
Love your very practical teaching style. Can these techniques be used with acrylic paint?
Yes it can, however you might need to use some mediums to achieve certain effects and styles... Plus you might have to work in sections since acrylics dry faster. I have 2 videos that might interest you that I will attach below. One on acrylic mediums and the other on how to paint this way with acrylics:

This was extremely helpful very great explanation and breaking it down! I would like if you did a water and ocean waves tutorial please! Thanks a bunch Wild
Great suggestion!
What parts of water and waves do you struggle with?
@@WildCreates With reflection of sun parts and Making waves. Also Wild I’ve searched your page and I’ve been wanting to do a northern lights winter theme, can you do me a big favor and do a tutorial? Thanks a bunch wild!
@@ceasar190 I second that!
Its in the works buddy - just not sure when it will drop. Stat tunned
@@WildCreates awesome thanks so much wild💙💙💙
Good job!
Thank you.

How does the cloud technique work in a smaller scale painting? Any suggestions to tackle nice clouds in 8x10 canvas or less?
You have 2 options... You can still use the same big brushes but learn to control them with smaller stokes and only use the corners of the brush OR invest in smaller brushes.
Honestly I do a combo of both ha ha ha

Can you make a video on how to blend the sky from the top of the sky to the bottom and one top edge of the sky slightly bluer or darker than the other side.
Just follow this video . Just use the colors you want and pull the color all the way down to where you need it:
ruclips.net/video/m_LTAgS7RCg/видео.html
Awesome video as always! Can you give a guide on how to paint a middle area? Like some distant trees that are in front of a mountain, but behind water?
I will add it to the list for ya buddy :)
Thank you for this tutorial, can this be done on water color paper and if so can you show us how.
Yes you can! Just apply a layer of gesso first.
Hey Wildcreates how are you doing? 😊 can you please paint whit gouache? 😅😅😅😅it would be fun to see how a oil painter handle,s a waterbased paint. I love fluffy big pink clouds 😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊 happy painting to you Wildcreates ✌🏾👋🏾🎨
I am doing well... I dont own any gouache paints at the moment. So It might be a while til I do something in that feild.
@@WildCreates ok i have the time and you take all the time you need go slow relax👍🏾👋🏾✌🏾🎨😁take another break for 2 days or more👍🏾👋🏾✌🏾😁🎨
nice❤
Thanks for liking. Make sure to hit that SUB button for more awesome videos.
Thanks Wild, always enjoy your videos. We'll practice these based upon what you taught today! I LOVE the advice you gave about just working on one cloud at a time. Is the Windsor paint more thick than the Ross paint? Blending (super light strokes) is still SO difficult.
Glad you are enjoy them - Make sure to check out the sky tutorial that goes with this too - It will help you a lot. In addition I am working on a mountain tutorial too. Now you will have half of a painting that I walk you through :)
Sky: ruclips.net/video/m_LTAgS7RCg/видео.html
WN paint is way way thicker/firmer than BRI paint. When it comes to blending lightly... use a smaller brush till your hands and arm develop muscle memory for the light touch. Then swap over to a bigger brush :)
I would love some help doing bob Ross style with acrylics? I've been doing it for awhile now and they come out good. I have trouble making a prominent foreground and adding details though.
I have a few videos on acrylics that might help you out. I will attach the playlist below for ya
ruclips.net/video/6AV4ZKCD2mU/видео.html
New subscriber - great videos. Do you have a video about when to clean you brushes? I feel like I am using thinner way too much
If you think you are using to much thinner then you are ha ha ha. I think I have a video on what I do. I will attach it below:
ruclips.net/video/9ABfigTK8dU/видео.html
@@WildCreates Thank you - spot on
Glad I could help you out buddy.
love it
Glad this video could help you out. Now you can move onto the next step which is mountains... which you can see here: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
Happy painting!
Do you " whip those eggs", with the brush, going left to right, or right to left, or does it matter??
To be honest it doesn't mater... The more free and lose you can be with it, the better results you have.
People over think it. Just go at it, you will be amazed at the clouds you can make when you follow this video 💪
So it seems like a great tutorial but are we supposed to be painting on to a wet sky? Thx!!!
You can do either but in this example here I do it on wet paint
@@WildCreatesthx!!!
glad to help
Thanks man for the beginner tips, boy I need them, hopeless at painting clouds. By the way can you suggest a cheaper brand of bristle brush? I have a tough time tracking down some place that sells bristle brushes here in South Australia. It's all synthetic these days and they don't do the job. Something a little less expensive than a Bob Ross 2" and 1" brush. I just don't have that kind of money. I have to save up or sell something each time I want to buy more paints. I'm not complaining, I'm having so much fun learning from you and Bob. Thanks Wild Creates
I just released a starter packet that you can download that shows and goes over best affordable starter supplies. The download has localizing links in it should take you to supplies located in your country or region. Give it a go:
payhip.com/b/qzxK1
Hey thanks for the starter pack, well received. Q. do you have any issues with your bristle brushes in terms of the corners, when you're blending, going all different directions? When I watch you or Bob Ross blend with say a 2" brush, the corner looks like it all stays together rather than splaying out. Is that what it's supposed to do?
OK so that is all about 2 things:
- Makes sure you clean your brushes well and use conditioner to shape them. This will help keep the bristles clean and straight allowing them to be closer together. Attached is a video on the conditioner I use: ruclips.net/video/gDaoXPk-nWQ/видео.html
- You need to use a lot more paint, when you saturate your brush with paint. The bristles will stick together more.
I hope that helps.
@@WildCreates Yes this has helped heaps. Thanks for the advice and your time, you must be inundated with help calls. It's great work that you do.
I just like to help out my community - You can always show you appreciation by smashing that super thanks or become a YT channel member.
What if you let the blue dry before adding clouds?
Hi Wild 😊 Thanks for your advices. Do you think that Maimeri's white paint is firm as the original Bob's white and Winsor & Newton's white paint?
I am not familiar with that brand - On some research it looks like an Italian make. Are you in that region?
@@WildCreates hi Wild, yes, I'm Italian. I often use Maimeri's paints and I like them, but for the snow I Always used Bob's White Paint, so I'm curious about It, thanks 😊
That is cool..
I’m wondering where you got the sweet man apron? I need one to paint in!!
Stay Tune... cause my next video is on that... 100% love it and its super affordable
@@WildCreates awesome 😎 thank you do much.
I do he he he
Can you show us how to use shadows as well as highlights on clouds? Maybe darker greyer clouds?
Would love to - I will save and show that in another future video... So hit that SUB button to know when it goes live :)
@@WildCreates already had man and left likes. I had the day off and as I had ordered a bunch of paint and utensils I've been binging your channel all day
Hell ya buddy - let me know how it goes with those new paints. Also thanks for the support, you can always help out by watching the videos in their entirety and leaving comments on them :)
Can you use this technique with acrylics?
Yes you can - I personally reccomend you work in stages though due to the shorter drying time. Take a look at the video below to see some tips on advice on how to do it with acrylics:
ruclips.net/video/LFqd-jj1lQ8/видео.html
@@WildCreates thank you so much for your response.
You are welcome - We will call it even by you smashing that Sub Button 🔥
This is astonishingly difficult. If the white paint is too thin you’re not covering the blue. Too thick and pulling the two-inch brush leaves bristle marks. At least, at the lightest I could pull the brush.
Still, the detailed discussions are much appreciated.
If it was easy, everyone could do it ha ha ha.
You are not wrong... it can be very challenging BUT I know you can do it. As dumb as it sounds, you just need to practice it over and over. Watch the video again and again in steps and do 1 full painting that is just clouds. Do 1 cloud at a time... each cloud you do will be better and better... then it will start to click.
Where I can get the best art paint brushes and canvase
That's hard to answer because everyone has a different style and what will feel comfortable to them.

Do you ever work with acrylics?
Yes I do and I even have some friends that come on and share too - You can see one here: ruclips.net/video/LFqd-jj1lQ8/видео.html
Hey Wildcreates how are you doing? I was wondering if you could draw or paint characters or people instead of clouds😂😅Don,t get me wrong i love you,re clouds. I have sketched/drawn the Joker as a break out prisoner and Harley Quin whit her Guns and her bat who comes to rescue him from the movie suicide squad. Take care and as always happy painting😊👍🏾👋🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾🌊🎨☁️ i love you,re cloud paintings
Sadly I am not that good at people... However, I could see if I can get one of my friends in a video to help.
@@WildCreates thats too bad😒but if one of you,re friends can help you out that would be great😁👍🏾👋🏾 thanks @Wildcreates
Does this work in acrylic also?
Yes but you will have to work a little quicker and add a little medium to your paint to keep it wet. Or you can see how I do it with acrylics here: ruclips.net/video/-L3vH5lG3RI/видео.html
@@WildCreates thank you
You are super welcome.

Does it need to be a fan brush? 😬
NO, you can use other brushes. feel free to experiment. I just fine a fan brush easier to uses and easier for new painters.
Hope that helps
@@WildCreates thank you!
@@KatieInTheLight you are always SUPER WELCOME 🔥
Thank you so much 😊 I found it hard to draw a cloud. Can you please 🙏 draw a mountain ⛰️ thnk you from Geanina 😊
Already have you covered. Mountains are right here: ruclips.net/video/iaLLJrklgbU/видео.html
All these left and right strokes don’t have paint on the brush so I’m confused
9:54…what Bob Ross calls fluffing the cloud. 😁
Gotta love fluffy clouds
Hello Wildcreates. I need help whit my waves✌🏾🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I will see what I can do in a future video for you
Ok @Wildcreates thank you👍🏾👋🏾✌🏾😁🙏🏾🎨🌊
Two minutes in and I am already appreciating the level of detail he's going into. Nothing irritates me more than overly simplified and over casual tutorials.
I appreciate that a lot - I know what it is like to start out and find no clear help out there... Hence why I started to make videos that are relatable with a dash of humor in there.

Nice but I use acrylic paints

ruclips.net/video/6AV4ZKCD2mU/видео.html
As Bob y sued to say one hair and some hair😊
its all about having that soft touch!
The best way to paint clouds? Use acrylic paint 😂 Anytime I use white oil, it just mixes with the blue immediately and looks like crap.
Watch the steps where I talk about this very thing. I show you how to minimize picking up the blue underneath.
Wait until the sky drys😊
Use water mixable oils. I just started using them. They're legit oils that have an emulsifier in it. No more terps to clean up. Water and a little soap and ur done
Paint a cabin
I will add it to the list for you 🔥
Me: after watching Bob Ross doc and them saying thinner was likely cause of cancer.. I'm good.
The good news for us painters today, is there are a lot more safer materials to use.
I use acrylics for the same techniques as oil. Water based and safe as watercolour.
