That’s not a “Bob Ross” painting, that’s a “You” painting. You did that and you should be proud!
Exactly what I wanted to make sure someone commented when I loaded the thread after seeing the pic.
Look at all those happy little trees! This is stunning OP
Was it as easy as he makes it look?
Yes and no, there is technique (especially with the snow on the mountains using a knife) but Ross’s attitude of there’s no such thing as a mistake makes it easier
I wanted to follow along so badly when I was a kid, but my mom never had the money for an oil paint set, canvases, and brushes. I suppose I could try now. Your painting looks great BTW!
I wish I was good paint, like you clearly are.
That wrench is pretty realistic
Haha yea I should have tried a little harder to get a good picture
I’m just goofin. It looks great!
So crisp! Great work :)
I love the colors. That’s really impressive and a beautiful piece.
This is great, I really have to dig out my painting supplies I ordered a few years ago. I started with acryl so I practice a bit before switching to oil, then RL happened and between “no time” and “I need better lightning” / “research about safe non toxic paint cleaner” I kinda forgot about it.
Do you have any modern guides with “just get this and don’t overthink it” that you can recommend? With a kid at home I don’t really wanna stress too much about toxic paint etc.
Keep painting 👍👌
Toxic oil paint is caused by the heavy metals in the pigment like cadmium, cobalt, and lead. Linseed oil works as a good paint thinner and good old soap and water to clean the brushes
Looks fantastic! That’s a hanger for sure.
Very nice! Deserves a repost hung against a blank background!
Really lovely, nice work!
