The following is a list of frequently asked questions about BOB ROSS oil painting technology and some instructions on the use and maintenance of materials.
Blending from
:
This technique refers to softening the hard edges and the most visible brush strokes by mixing the wet paint on the canvas with a clean, dry brush. In the mix, the painted area is lightly brushed with a cross brush or tapped gently with the corners of the brush. This makes the color soft and natural. Not all paints are suitable for this technique - most are too soft and easy to apply. Only thick and strong coatings are suitable for this technology.
Marble pattern:
To mix the paint with the marble effect, place the different color paintings in the blending area of the palette, then use the palette knife to pick and fold the paintings together and then flatten them. Stripes of each color should be visible in the mixture. Don't overmix.
Reduce paint with added highlights:
When applying a mixture of paintings to thicker coatings already on the canvas, especially when adding highlight colors, use LIQUID WHITE, LIQUID CLEAR or ODROLES THINNER to dilute the coating. The rule to remember here is that the thin paint will stick to the thicker paint.
Clean and dry the brush:
Wet wet painting requires frequent thorough cleaning of the paint thinner. An empty one-pound coffee can is ideal for keeping the diluent, or any container that is about 5 inches in diameter and at least 6 inches in depth. Place the Bob Ross screen on the bottom of the can and fill the odorless thinner about 1 inch above the screen.
Carefully squeeze the larger brush onto the inside of the coffee pot and then brush the brush onto a brush blender rack mounted in the high kitchen trash basket to remove the thinner reminder. You can wipe smaller brushes with a paper towel or a rag [I highly recommend using Viva paper towels because they are very absorbent]. Do not put the brush back into the plastic bag after use, otherwise the bristles will become soft. Never use soap and water or detergent to clean the Bob Ross brush, as this will destroy the natural strength of the bristles. Store the brush with the bristles up or down.
Application liquid white:
Use a 2-inch brush on the canvas for long, solid vertical and horizontal strokes.
Place the oil color on the PALETTE:
I recommend using a palette with a size of at least 16"x20". Try to arrange the colors around the outer edge of the palette from light to dark. Leave the center of the palette to mix your paint.
Load your brush:
To fully fit the inner bristles of the brush, first align it perpendicular to the palette and then place the bristles into a pile of paint. Then hold the brush at a 45-degree angle and drag the brush across the palette, away from the paint pile. Turning the brush from side to side ensures even loading on both sides.
[Note: When the bristles become sharp edges or sharp flat edges, the brush will load correctly.]
For some strokes, you may want the end of the brush to be round. To do this, place the brush vertically on the palette. Firmly pull your brush in your direction. Remove the palette every time you tap. This will tend to round the end of the brush and apply it with a rounded end.
Mixed focus:
Place the tip of the brush in a liquid white, liquid clean or odorless diluent tank that allows only a small amount of media to remain on the bristles. Load the brush by gently dragging the highlight color and repeat as needed. Gently tap the bristles on the palette to open the bristles and loosen the paint.
Load the PALETTE knife:
Use the palette knife to pull the paint mixture from the palette down through the palette. Hold the knife in a straight line and pull the long working edge of the knife diagonally across the paint. This will create a roll of paint on your knife.
What if I have never painted before?
There is nothing mysterious about painting. You only need desire, some basic skills and a little practice. If you are new to this technology, I highly recommend reading the entire section of "TIPS AND TECHNIQUES" before starting your first painting. Think of each painting you create as a learning experience. Add your own special touches and thoughts to each painting, and your confidence and ability will increase at an incredible rate.
What paint should I use?
The painting technique of BOB ROSS depends on the special sturdy paint of the base color. The color used primarily for highlights [yellow] is made into a thinner consistency for ease of mixing and application. Using the right equipment helps ensure the best results.
Liquid Clear is a particularly exciting ingredient for wet-on-wet coatings. Like liquid white/black, it creates the necessary smooth and smooth surface. In addition, the advantage of Liquid Clear is that it does not dilute the intensity of other colors, especially when it is important to draw a sea view. Remember to use Liquid Clear very carefully! The trend is to apply a larger amount than necessary because it is difficult to see.
The 13 colors we use are as follows:
*茜素深红
* Sap Green, Bright Red
*Dark Sienna
* Pthalo Green
Cadmium yellow
Titanium white,
* Pthalo Blue,
*Indian yellow
* Van Dyck
brown
*Midnight black
Jaundice
* Prussian Blue [* indicates a transparent or translucent color that can be used under coatings that require transparency.]
How do I mix colors?
Mixed colors are probably one of the most valuable and interesting parts of painting, but they are probably one of the most frightening programs. Take some time to mix the various color combinations and become familiar with the basic color mixture. Study the colors in nature and practice copying the colors you see every day. In a very short time, you will mix colors very comfortably and you will expect each painting as a new challenge.
Should you use any art product of this painting method?
It may be the first problem that individuals encountered when they first tried this technique, and the main reason for disappointment was the use of products designed for other styles of painting or materials that were not designed for art at all [ie house brushes, Thin soup painting, etc.]].
All the paintings in this technique were created using Bob Ross paintings, brushes and palette knives. In order to get the best results from your efforts, I highly recommend that you only use products designed specifically for Bob Ross wet-on-wet technology.
How long will I use to paint?
The drying time depends on many factors such as heat, humidity, paint thickness, paint surface, the brand of paint used, and the media used with the paint. Another factor is the variety of colors used. Different colors have different drying times [ie, typically blue will dry very quickly, while colors such as red, white and yellow dry very slowly]. When painting with this technique, the average time for oil painting to dry is about one week.
Should I modify my paintings?
Painting will protect it from the elements. It also helps keep the colors more vivid. If you decide to varnish your painting, I suggest you wait at least six months. Oil painting takes a long time to fully cure. Use a high quality, non-yellowing varnish spray. I personally sprayed my paintings after about 4 weeks and there was no problem.
