How to Paint Alaska Northern Lights

9/1/2021

This is a tutorial all about painting the Alaska Northern Lights!
This is different from my previous videos, a new idea inspired it and had to try it!
I am using Water Mixable Oil Paint, but you can use your own brand of paint too.
This is easy enough for a beginner, and uses just a few colors.

I am pleased with the way this painting turned out!
I hope you will try it, and let me know how it worked out for you.

Trees in the Woods, WMO

5/1/2021

This painting is called Trees in the Woods that will have you loosing up in no time!
I'm using a new medium, water Mixable Oil Paint (WMO), also called Water soluble Oil's.
They are clean, easy to work with, smell great and offer many colors!
And the best part? They work and clean with just soap and water.

If you don't have Water misable oil's then just use your regular oil paints.
Use thinner as your medium or your favorite oil medium.
It will still work and you will have a nice little painting.

Painting mountains is one of my favorite thing to do.
In this video, I am sharing a lot of my best tips with you.
I will be using a palette knife a little differently than I usually do,
but it works really great!

Try painting these mountains in many different colors and shapes.
You do not have to follow exactially what I do.
Most of all, just have fun with it and be creative.
Practice, scrape, and paint it over. It will pay off big time.

Painting Simple Clouds, Oil Painting Techniques with Yovette

3/1/2020

Painting clouds can be so simple, and completed with many kinds of brushes.
In this video I chose to use the #3 Bob Ross fan brush.
This is an easy way to do clouds, but first,
I had to put in a sky.

I hope you try your hand at doing clouds now!
Vote to let me know if you would like to see me do a mountain next.

12/2/2019

This is Pt 2 of the Meadow Landscape and the most fun part, adding color!
I hope you all have finished the black and white Pt 1.
So grab your brushes and let's get started!

The gray canvas, and the pruple in the sky gives that effect.
