Tom, this painting is dedicated to you! Thank you for all the comments, encouragements, great inspiring master pieces of yours and just being such an amazing person!
This is my very 1st Bill Alexander painting (suggestion from Tom)!! 😃 I did learn few things. It’s great to change teacher. It def expands my abilities & techniques. This isn’t the last one.
My picture doesn’t reflect 100% the color I see in real. I have more blue than it show here. I added some highlights on the trees, bushes and branches. I think it’s working good.
Very simple painting. Very easy to do. Any other suggestions for my 2nd Bill Alexander?
This is such a wonderful comment Pietro! Grazie mille! ☺️
This is beautiful Nancy, love everything about it, very attracted to the dark moody sky and shadows, I might give this a go as I like Bill Alexander, if Bob was everyone's brother then Bill was their grandad!
This means more coming from you Niv! ☺️ Thank you! I can’t wait to see your version. You will make this a masterpiece out of it without the shadow of a doubt! Well said about Bob & Bill!!
Wow, just gorgeous! Masterful handling of light and shadow and perspective!
Thank you so much Brian! 😊
So, did you scratch all those branches in like he did or did you use your liner brush? Looks like you added highlights to them, and the shrubs as well. Nice touch.
Good Morning, like Bill Alexander🇩🇪 very much .all in this painting had the Perfect flow ,Perfect colour Harmony . I think,Bill would be proud of you . In german „ unglaublich gut „
It is great Nancy. And thank you very much for your kind words. I think your skills grew so fast, that you don’t need any tips from anyone any more 😀
Means you can choose whatever you want. One of my all time favorite episodes is ‚Sunset IV‘ by Bill. This is more complex and a 70 minute episode. But as said above I would say choose whatever you like. I am sure you will do a great job! 😀
Brian, I scratched all of them. Then I decided to make some of branches darker so I did go over some with a liner brush with black paint. Then, I thought that if there is a light source, some highlight should show up but very subdued tho. It gave more depth and dimension to the painting.
Stunning!!!!! Wow I can't wait to do one! I been watching threw them all week making list lol
Vielen Dank, mein toller deutscher Freund! ☺️Your comments always bring much joy in my day!
Bill is an amazing man and incredible painter. Germany can be very proud of this great artist ambassador!
Bill would say „you fired it in „and you really do it on a fantastic way😎nice day Beauty Queen 👊🏼
Tom, you bring so much to all of us on TIB! Personally, you gave me tips and always answer any questions I have. You bring confidence out of me to try new challenges. It’s priceless. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I am an only child. I was by myself a lot. I did a lot of crafts as a little girl and developed the skill of self-taught at a very young age. I always learned fast as long as I can remember (specially if I really like something).
I will def paint Sunset IV! I am sure it will keep me on my feet for few hours. 😅 Can’t wait to get to it.
Thank you Sherina! You should def try this one. It’s easy and will bring you new skills. Lots of similarities with Bob but also some very different way to do things with Bill. I am sure you will enjoy the challenge!
☺️Awwww! Thank you Dirk! ☺️ Have a fabulous rest of your Sunday! I will be posting another painting later on. I am doing “The old Weathered Barn”.
Well Nancy I see no issue that you go the next step with e.g. Sunset IV. I am sure you can do it. This is one of the paintings I hung up in the living room but I think about several improvements.
OMG Now I realized I did not share my version of winter woods yet, lol. I think next week. I don't want to flood the page with my pictures, LOL.
CAN'T wait to see it!!! 😃
Are you back to painting today?
Yup, posted my today’s picture already 😀
Oh Nancy - this is very striking! I actually watched this video a few days ago, and you totally nailed it! The mist, the light, the liner brush work is all superb. I do think that Sunset IV is a pretty one to try. I have not done this one but other TIB members have. Another one (a seascape since you live in Florida!) is Sunset seascape. Several of us have painted that one.
Thank you so much Pam!! I will def check out the sunset seascape. So I have now 2 Bill Alexander to be challenged with!
Simply put, I love it N!
Thank you so much B!!! ☺️
