Original Creation

Looseley after Bob Ross's Towering Peaks (season 10 episode 1)

Cwgeorge 19 Jan 2024

My second painting and my first paint along with Bob attempt. Clearly, I need some work on my brush technique...But it's a start.

Also, I had a very hard time getting my 2 inch brush to a chisel edge. Never really got completely there even though I used al lot of paint. Any suggestions?

I think you did a great job!

You are off to a pretty good start! I like those fun close up evergreens on the left! About the chiseled edge - First, are you using a Bob Ross brush (or equivalent)? They are different than regular house brushes. (I paint both art and houses lol)

A LOT of paint is more than I ever thought in the beginning! There are a lot of episodes (IDK which ones lol) where Bob shows this...dragging his brush through the paint and wiggling it back and forth. both sides of the brush. It will be sooooooo much paint, but it will come to a sharp edge.

Great job. Love the mountains and reflection.

Thanks for the tips. Iā€™m using Bob Ross brushes.
