I had ordered Bob Ross Paint set as I wanted to challenge my skills. I never done oil painting before only pencil, charcoal, and oil pastels. So the oil painting is my next challenge. I always liked Bob Ross and used to watch him all the time in the 80s. I should had taken up oil painting back then, I would had become a professional by now. But hey, better late than never.
I would have to say that for a first attempt with his oil paints, I did pretty good. Problem were that the canvas was pretty small and I couldn't get the trees right. I had hard time with the brushes too. I should had used the very small brush rather than the big brush. I am wondering if I had placed too much water base on the canvas because the mountain wasn't working correctly from the beginning.
I think it will take a lot of practice on controlling the paints and brushes and brush strokes.
