Sample Post 3

You want your tree to have some character. Make it special. See there, told you that would be easy. Be so very light. Be a gentle whisper. Let the paint work. We touch the canvas, the canvas takes what it wants.

We don’t have anything but happy trees here. Let your heart be your guide. There we are. Everyone wants to enjoy the good parts – but you have to build the framework first.

We artists are a different breed of people. We’re a happy bunch. Every time you practice, you learn more.

It just happens – whether or not you worried about it or tried to plan it. It’s all a game of angles. You can work and carry-on and put lots of little happy things in here. I thought today we would do a happy little picture. La- da- da- da- dah. Just be happy.

Now we don’t want him to get lonely, so we’ll give him a little friend. Remember how free clouds are. They just lay around in the sky all day long. If you overwork it you become a cloud killer. There’s nothing worse than a cloud killer. That’s what makes life fun. That you can make these decisions. That you can create the world that you want.

If these lines aren’t straight, your water’s going to run right out of your painting and get your floor wet. You need to have a very firm paint to do this.

Let your heart take you to wherever you want to be. In painting, you have unlimited power. You have the ability to move mountains. If there’s two big trees invariably sooner or later there’s gonna be a little tree. Every single thing in the world has its own personality – and it is up to you to make friends with the little rascals. Let’s get crazy.

That’s a son of a gun of a cloud. Making all those little fluffies that live in the clouds. I guess that would be considered a UFO. A big cotton ball in the sky. Give him a friend, we forget the trees get lonely too.

You want your tree to have some character. Make it special. You can do it. Now, we’re going to fluff this cloud.

If you don’t like it – change it. It’s your world. Let’s have a happy little tree in here. We have all at one time or another mixed some mud.

It just happens – whether or not you worried about it or tried to plan it. It’s a very cold picture, I may have to go get my coat. It’s about to freeze me to death. What the devil. I guess I’m a little weird. I like to talk to trees and animals. That’s okay though; I have more fun than most people.

All kinds of happy little splashes. We don’t have anything but happy trees here.

I’m gonna add just a tiny little amount of Prussian Blue. Water’s like me. It’s laaazy … Boy, it always looks for the easiest way to do things

Play with the angles. We’ll put some happy little leaves here and there. When you do it your way you can go anywhere you choose. Let’s put some happy little bushes on the other side now. Let’s get wild today. That’s what makes life fun. That you can make these decisions. That you can create the world that you want. This is where you take out all your hostilities and frustrations. It’s better than kicking the puppy dog around and all that so.

Trees cover up a multitude of sins. Here’s another little happy bush We don’t have to be committed. We are just playing here. We need a shadow side and a highlight side. You have freedom here. The only guide is your heart.

The little tiny Tim easels will let you down. It looks so good, I might as well not stop. We’ll play with clouds today. Maybe there was an old trapper that lived out here and maybe one day he went to check his beaver traps, and maybe he fell into the river and drowned.

You got your heavy coat out yet? It’s getting colder. Look around, look at what we have. Beauty is everywhere, you only have to look to see it. You have to make almighty decisions when you’re the creator. If it’s not what you want – stop and change it. Don’t just keep going and expect it will get better. That’s what painting is all about. It should make you feel good when you paint. That’s crazy. Son of a gun.

Just let your mind wander and enjoy. This should make you happy. And right there you got an almighty cloud. Clouds are free. They just float around the sky all day and have fun. Fluff that up. You’re meant to have fun in life.

Talent is a pursued interest. That is to say, anything you practice you can do. Mountains are so simple, they’re hard.

Every single thing in the world has its own personality – and it is up to you to make friends with the little rascals. I thought today we would do a happy little picture. You can get away with a lot. We touch the canvas, the canvas takes what it wants. When you buy that first tube of paint it gives you an artist license. Let’s just drop a little Evergreen right here. These trees are so much fun. I get started on them and I have a hard time stopping.

We’ll put a happy little sky in here. A fan brush can be your best friend.

And I know you’re saying, ‘Oh Bob, you’ve done it this time.’ And you may be right. But they’re very easily killed. Clouds are delicate.

Let all these things just sort of happen. Maybe we got a few little happy bushes here, just covered with snow. That is when you can experience true joy, when you have no fear. You can create the world you want to see and be a part of. You have that power. Little trees and bushes grow however makes them happy. Anything you want to do you can do here.

The man who does the best job is the one who is happy at his job. Just let this happen. We just let this flow right out of our minds. Let your heart be your guide.

I spend a lot of time walking around in the woods and talking to trees, and squirrels, and little rabbits and stuff. Let’s build an almighty mountain. Be careful. You can always add more – but you can’t take it away. You can do anything here. So don’t worry about it. They say everything looks better with odd numbers of things. But sometimes I put even numbers—just to upset the critics.

There we go. That’s the way I look when I get home late; black and blue. That’s a son of a gun of a cloud. In this world, everything can be happy.

The man who does the best job is the one who is happy at his job. Let’s put some happy little bushes on the other side now. This piece of canvas is your world. Talent is a pursued interest. That is to say, anything you practice you can do. Exercising the imagination, experimenting with talents, being creative; these things, to me, are truly the windows to your soul. We’ll have a super time.

Nothing wrong with washing your brush. We don’t have to be committed. We are just playing here. You can do anything here. So don’t worry about it. Don’t forget to tell these special people in your life just how special they are to you. Let’s get crazy. This is the fun part

I get carried away with this brush cleaning. You could sit here for weeks with your one hair brush trying to do that – or you could do it with one stroke with an almighty brush. We’ll lay all these little funky little things in there. A happy cloud. Let your imagination be your guide.

Clouds are free they come and go as they please. We start with a vision in our heart, and we put it on canvas. You need the dark in order to show the light. Making all those little fluffies that live in the clouds. Talk to trees, look at the birds. Whatever it takes. And maybe, maybe, maybe…

Go out on a limb – that’s where the fruit is. This is your creation – and it’s just as unique and special as you are. Just take out whatever you don’t want. It’ll change your entire perspective. Imagination is the key to painting. Now then, let’s play.

We don’t really know where this goes – and I’m not sure we really care. Little short strokes. Maybe we got a few little happy bushes here, just covered with snow. With practice comes confidence. We’ll put some happy little leaves here and there.

Anytime you learn something your time and energy are not wasted. Isn’t that fantastic? You can just push a little tree out of your brush like that. We spend so much of our life looking – but never seeing.

Let’s make a happy little mountain now. The secret to doing anything is believing that you can do it. Anything that you believe you can do strong enough, you can do. Anything. As long as you believe. That’s why I paint – because I can create the kind of world I want – and I can make this world as happy as I want it.

The least little bit can do so much. That is when you can experience true joy, when you have no fear. But we’re not there yet, so we don’t need to worry about it.

The little tiny Tim easels will let you down. We might as well make some Almighty mountains today as well, what the heck. Very easy to work these to death. The first step to doing anything is to believe you can do it. See it finished in your mind before you ever start.

Let’s have a happy little tree in here. Every single thing in the world has its own personality – and it is up to you to make friends with the little rascals. It’s a super day, so why not make a beautiful sky?
