Bill Alexander paints a wonderful seascape part 1/3 oil painting art

William (Bill) Alexander was born in 1915 in East Prussia. As a youth he used his artistic talents to paint carriages and murals for local aristocrats. After the war, Bill and his family immigrated to North America to pursue their dream of building a home and to share Bills gift of painting.

Bill and his wife, Margaret, traveled throughout the United States and Canada teaching painting and making friends, often selling paintings to meet living expenses along the way. During this time Bill worked hard to develop his wet-on-wet technique and products. He developed the base medium Magic White, extra-thick oil paints, and special palette knives and brushes. These products work together to help artists, even a beginning artist, create beautiful scenes on the canvas.

By 1974, when he completed his first Emmy-winning Magic of Oil painting television show, Bills dream had become a reality. He had built himself a home in North America a home in the hearts of thousands who discovered with Bills help that they could have the almighty power to fire in and be happy painters too. Today, Bill continues to teach the world to paint through his television shows available on DVD.

He had the key to happiness, this guy. And the great thing is that he shared the secret!

Cool! I love Bill! I tried painting outdoors before, but I didn't have much success.

I am a Bob Ross Fan. Just Found Bill here on youtube. I really think he is better than Bob on certain things, and his brushes look to be better quality.

@mahmood4031 or use liquid white (Bob Ross brand). Actually he uses his liquid clear for transparency as in water or seascapes. But liquid white for all else for his wet on wet technique. He's also got black jesso, grey jesso, for solid dark starting surfaces but the jesso's are a dry start. For a night seascape you would apply black jesso (sorry its gesso not jesso) then let that dry , after that dries then u would add liquid clear on that for night transparency.

@mahmood4031 Du kan göra eget. Blanda först ihop Liquid Clear av 4 delar Stand Oil och en del Sansodor eller thinner. Blanda noga. Sedan tar du en del av detta och blandar med 4 delar titanvitt, då har du Magic White. Använd billig färg, du ska bara grunda med det här. Det blir nästan som klister. Är det för kladdigt kan du ta mera thinner. Ta lite på duken, den ska kännas ungefär som klistersidan på tejp. Ladda med mycket färg i penseln och "Fire in" :-)

@mahmood4031 You can make it yourself for cheaper than you could buy it anywhere. It's just titanium white mixed with linseed oil and/or paint thinner to thin it out.
