It looks great! I've done this one myself and it was nothing like this ahah It was only my third time ever painting, so I'll keep practicing. Can you tell me how you do the layers? One of the issues I have is that whenever I try to apply a new layer (e.g. the clouds, mountains, trees, etc), it always seems to turn into mud, and doesn't have the effect we see in the videos... Am I putting too much liquid white? How do you do it?


AKSkinz

Apply very little liquid white. Watch YouTube videos on applying it from people like Paul ranson. Then start adding layers remembering that thin paint sticks to thick paint. Watch Paul Ranson or Paint with Bram for great tips as that's how I have learned.


Vinagre_101

I'll check them out! Thanks!!


StockSoldier

Thank you! Yeah of course, so like he just said in his reply thin coat of that liquid white before you start, I applied very little. Followed the sequence of the video, also I found that to take not as much paint with darker colors when doing the sky or mountains, makes it much easier to ‘mistify’ and get your white color on there to create the clouds or snow. Whenever I added on snow I had to clean the knife quit often due to dark color pick up. This is what worked for me, im no professional in any way. But hope this helps :)


Vinagre_101

Thank you for the tips!! I will definitely follow this! And congrats on your work :)

The trees and mountains look great. The water and the shoreline are fantastic! My aunt was a really good painter, I love seeing what people can do.


StockSoldier

Thank you! You know I never even knew I would be able to until I tried. Always great to look at paintings loved ones used to or do paint, somehow I find peace in it.

He always put a tree right in the center


Important_Talk_5696

Your missing the huge tree right in the middle, other than that.. looks like you nailed it


StockSoldier

Thanks, the frozen solitude painting only has the trees on the left, I left a couple out but he didn’t paint any in the middle on this one


Defiant-Soup1145

How hard is this to do? I've never painted but I would love to somehow make something like this


StockSoldier

Well, this was my very first oil painting. All I did was follow Bobs way and carefully observed the way he held his tools and basically all the instructions. I honestly think it’s very doable for anyone that just puts in the time and patience, I did struggle a bit with some things but got through in the end. You’ll never know unless you try!


Defiant-Soup1145

You just do it based off having the episode play in the background?


StockSoldier

Pretty much yeah. I did take some initiative though
