he bout to HAVE an almighty stroke
Bob Ross mentioned that Bill Alexander was his mentor and taught him the wet on wet technique, use of large brushes, and how to use the "almighty knife."
Bill was the mentor to tens of thousands of artists.
@@morgancalvi6675 man bob was never like that.WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP CHOOSING BOB OVER BILL OR BILL OVER BOB.sorry im very enraged that u said he died before bill.Like WT*.dewd why just why JUST FING WHY!!!!
@@morgancalvi6675 i hate u...i really do
Morgan Calvi oh sorry for missunderstanding...ahem call me dumb Karen that is a boi
Haha lol my rage hehe
All these years later, the "life" lesson I learned from Bill is..."Without the dark, there is no light"! Priceless!
Pretty amazing that he painted that entire thing with nothing but a 2-inch brush and a palette knife.
Just shows that you don't need a lot of fancy tools to make great art.
The paint he’s Using us Fancy Art supplies
The Brush too
Like god damn Look at its price
I was looking to Buy Some The other day
@Europio Art's greatness is highly subjective.
@Europio I bet you don’t even make art
Bob Ross: the guy you relax with and let go of you troubles with.
Bill Alexander: the guy you have a few beers with who makes you laugh like hell, but still teaches you life lessons.
Bob Ross studied under and stole everything from Bill. The world doesn't know.
Perfect
Just listening to Bill painting is an entertaining experience in itself. such a great talent.
I have to say that's what drew me to Bill as well. What he says at the canvas is as important as what he puts on it. Not just a great master artist, a great human being! Thanks for noticing!
Alexander Art ice fall mountain scenery
Two wonderful artists with completely different personalities. Love you both Bill and Bob.
It seems to me that Bill was more frenetic, kinetic, and faster in his painting, while Bob was somewhat more methodical, subdued, and deliberate. Reflecting their personalities entirely.
Yep...For me Bill was a 3 cups of Coffee painter while Bob was a Sleeping Pill painter.. Bill woke me up, Bob put me to sleep... 😃
I fondly remember, and miss, the days when Bill Alexander was on the local PBS station.
Very fond memories watching Bill with my dad. We so loved his personality and all his little phrases, not to mention his insane talent.
Huge Bob Ross fan right here but I have to admit that Bill (usually) produced the better, more painterly, work in a half hour. Its a shame that there aren't more one, even two hour examples of both of these great artists working.
Bill also invented the whole technique that Bob stole.
Bill Alexander is the Ip-Man of the wet-on-wet technique.
I found bob ross 20 years ago and that motivated me to paint . Shortly after I found Bill Alexander. Thanks to them I am now a professional land scaping artist. Thank you Bill and Bob.
How did you get that job... Id love to paint for a living.
I want to be a proffessional painter in 6month what do you think. I'm an absolute beginner rn.
There are no mistakes, just...the ALMIGHTY STROKE!!!!
Beautiful! Always loved Bill's work and technique. Thanks for posting these videos. So absolutely relaxing, especially in today's upside-down world. Thank you.
My father LOVED watching Bill paint. Dad was a WWII vet and served in Europe. He was at Normandy +21 days and won a bronze star during the Bulge with the Third Armored Division. Dad had no use for Nazis but loved the German people in general. I'm surprised dad didn't marry a German girl. But anyway I think Bill's nationality had at least something to do my father's appreciation of this program.
+ohger1 I became a student of WWII after, of all things, playing a video game (Call of Duty - World at War). During the credits there was a statement that 60,000,000 people died during WWII. I just couldn't wrap my head around that idea and so began reading everything I could get my hands on. What the Nazis, and their allies, perpetrated on the world was disastrous as much, if not more, to their own people as the rest of the world. When you read the story of Sophie Scholl and realize that there were Germans who tried to resist, at great personal peril, you realize the world is not black and white as some would have us believe -- there are myriad shades of gray. That a German, whose life was uprooted and changed as much as Bill's was, could start over and not only rebuild his life, but gain celebrity and, thereby, help change the lives of millions of people, is inspiring beyond words. Bill was not only a role model for his own countrymen but for all of us. I respect, particularly, folks like your father, who was cast into the cauldron of war yet was able to see the world clearly. God bless him...and Bill!
My grandfather also received a bronze star with valor for being the first Field Surgeon at Normandy and he also was at the bulge. I couldn't possibly imagine the horrific after effects of the battles he saw.
John-Del, your father & other vets get mucho thanks from me for serving our country!! I salute ALL of them🎖🎖🎖🎖!!!!
You load your mighty brrrushh with Vite,only tick paint,and you fire in an almighty strooooooke....I love this guy....
Yeah me too. He survived 2 world wars - thak makes happy . . . 4 sure . . .
To think it is amazing, time has just blown past....I was watching him on PBS almost 35 years ago. He's still great. His love and enthusiasm for his art will live forever. As it endures he continues to draw more people to paint. The 'powerful' energy he so often talked about putting in the painting and the way he shared his with us made, rather makes..us all better :)
One Almighty Stroke! 😂 he's a bit more intense than Bob to say the least. I like him. I like them both.
Bill was so down to earth. He slips in a few Zingers. People didn't take things the wrong way when these shows were made. No one got Offended . Bill was Awesome.
R.I.P bill. You really showed me that even I can paint.
What a lovely human being. I admired Bob Ross but he got his inspiration from this man, even his way of speaking. There is nothing like the original!
Sheila is sooooo hot!!!
Love ya Sheila
i dearly love watching him even now. He is full of such love, and such joy, I cant wait for my art supplies to come so I can paint in this style. His love of art and painting is immense, and his joy for God, and love of him is beyond all compare. God rest your soul Wilheim. You live on. And I hope in me and the generations yuo taught to paint, and be the creator next to God .
When I listen to Bill, I have the urge to throw some brats on the grill and drink beer. RIP Bill. Often imitated never duplicated
😉😉😉
What an absolute talent Bill is. I am very new at painting, 6 weeks now. Cannot draw either, lol, but I didn't want to leave this world without learning to paint. I am addicted, it is such good therapy. I try to remember "their are no mistakes", although I think I am often the exception to that rule, lol.
Happy painting everyone, and thanks so much Bill, you are such a joy to watch and learn from the best.
+Shavauna Ronan We have a complete art course taught by Bill at alexanderart.com/pwb01/
Go girl go! Aou will never regret it. I have so much ecstasy in painting I really could NOT believe it -> PURE FLOW ! No other drugs necessary 😉
8:36 This is what seperates him from Bob Ross XD
Alf Bakke "this" what?
Castro's Midnight Losers Bob was soft when he spoke, Bill is lots louder
FScorpion678 Exactly even legends have to start somewhere. After all The Beatles and Stones have influences they're indebted to. Likewise there would be no Bob without Bill.
Bob Ross supposedly worked for Bill Alexander and learned from him how to paint using the wet on wet technique.
Alf Bakke h
ONE ALMIGHTY STROKE!!! This guy inspired me so much to pick up painting
Bill explains a bit about the theory of lighting, shading and reflections and the reasons why it is like that, which Bob seldom did. But both are great and I love to watch them
So Bob never said " don't kill your dark spots, their your most important friends " ?? I don't think you watched him very much. He always spoke about the importance of dark and light.
He's so adorable oh my god!!!
Would love to see a lot more Alexander videos if they are available somewhere. The whole collection of series would be utterly divine!
We have more videos in our membership on our website. Please check out our site a www.alexanderart.com.
I think bill is a better painter than Bob hands down. But Bob has a better style of teaching and that's why he's special
Alexander besides being an awesome entertainer and funny your hands are also magical. Your sense of humor makes me watch the video over and over.....Thanks for sharing
Zoraida Cortes he's been dead for a decade.
I just got back into painting after 15 years, mostly because of Bill’s tutorials-he reminds me of my great Uncle (also German), sounds just like him and very similar personality!
Bill is so entertaining. I've watched loads of his videos and I've also just listened to him. He's fantastic! ☺
Bob would have been lazy and blured the water... Bill details that reflection. Bill is the GOAT. He does more than just landscapes.
Hi everyone. I did do this painting. Way over my head in reality, but was an awesome challenge. The reflection is not exactly where it should be nor is it the appropriate size, lol. Looks great from a distance though, okay, far distance, lol.
It is recognizable, and I am happy. Maybe if I learn to play an instrument I will become a better painter? I dance, does that count? Lol.
Ready to do another one. Thanks Bill.
Hey man are you still alive? If so did you continue painting? Its been 6 years a lot must have changed
I loved this it was so inspiring thank you ,it opened up so many possibilities. I was thinking of quitting painting, I felt stagnant without any growth. Thank you again.
It's great to see paint brought to everybody. Everyone should be given the chance to express themselves.
His paintings are absolutely gorgeous!! His technique is really good!!
This is a joy, Mr Alexander, the people who allow us to view this, i Can only thank you, for my soul feels free, for years, people can enjoy such a beautiful artist and inspiration
this guy brightens up my day, every day! You, You, Youuuu... no mercy! Love it..
it was a pleasure to see this man paint at some point when I was little boy and I remember every little word he said this little crowd knew what he was doing when he did a little painting and he knew how to use the almighty stroke ,my dad used to make me watch him and I'm glad he did
This almost looks like a photograph! Unreal talent.
???????
Again a beautiful painting
Your so much fun to watch. You inspire me, thank you.
Wow! This is brilliant. I don't know why people argue for,or,against one or,the other. They are both better than I am,and,I can learn from both of them. I agree with you Jim Morris.
I have adopted one of Bill's phrases into Digital Art... I call it the "Almighty Undo Button"! 😀
Oh I love that! How I wish there was an almighty undo button for oil painting!
What a gem!!
Your are so pleasant to watch. You make me smile as I watch and listen to you.
My brother used to watch him and I really enjoyed him too. Amazing what can be done in 1/2 hour.
Buenisimo, Bill, como siempre.🎨👏👏👏🙌
Gotta love his loose approach, doesn't complicate it, makes his marks, moves on.
Bill Alexander a wonderful artist 👌🎨🧑🎨🌟
You sing you kiss that magic knife oh my god your are so joyful, I love you buddy😉, and wonderful painting too
Ich küsse Ihre Liebe Erinnerung, Herr Großvater! When I hear your almighty voice I am a little American German girl again in Minnesota in the 1970’s listening to a voice of the Fatherland and falling in love with art.
I wish I could see all of his secrets to painting all in one video. For example, using a painting knife to make a mountain is just perfect and I bet he has many more amazing secrets like that
I denk it's zo gut.
Seriously Onkel Willi did a wunderbar job and it's also great that he had such a great time doing this.
This reminds me of the Tetons in Wyoming. It might be the most beautiful place I've ever seen, right by Jenny Lake.
RIP Onkel Willi, du bist sehr vermisst.
My Son says, Mom, why do you keep watching those, you already know how to do that!." I said, "How do you think I get better and better?"
Terry Lash you are a wise lady
one almighty stroke at a time
"One repays a teacher poorly if one remains a disciple.".......Friedrich Nietzsche
I've been a huge Bill fan since the late 70's. Thank you PBS.
Bill Alexander. The Real Deal.
Beautiful !!!!
hwhite vs vite
Bilingual pun: He could do paintings of southern Florida and call the series "Miami Weiss". (weiss is German for "white" -- it's pronounced "vice" in German)
yes
Beautiful painting!
WHAT A TALENTED MAN!
Wow! Excellent graphics!
You are an amazing artist with a humour..Beautiful painting.
I loved this guy with his "mighty fan brush". I miss him so much.
Great artist and great man. He was a second world war hero ,under Wermacht uniform defending his country against the communism . RIP Bill.
Interesting facts since his disciple Bob Ross has been a miltary sergeant too !! Seems soldiers need the calmness and flow of painting after retiring 😉
He is AWESOME!
Hi Sir I really love your way of expressing yourself in the painting. You are so bold in imparting what you have. I love that ""Almighty"". I thank the lord for your gift in the field of art. May the Almighty bless you abundantly to create many more wonderful creations. I learn from you everyday sir, you are a true inspiration for me. I thought I won't be able to paint, you proved it wrong and now I realise everybody can paint. Thank you sir. Have a colour filled life.
What a creation ! beautiful I love your paintings m trying to learn
Beautiful. You are a great artist.
Bill is the person WHO taught Bob
This guy is fabulous!!
Frohe Weinachten Bill! And Happy Yuletide

Very nice and beautiful design and great painting naturally looks I like This perfect color and the drawing techniques are great combine with the color nice and the water drawing great texture Thanks you good tichel
Beautiful
MARAVILLOSAMENTE ADMIRABLE...!!!
I come here right after watching Bob Ross paint practically the same thing. Man, they even say the same things. They really were just the same artist split into two different personalities.
I like them both too, but William Alexander was the 1st painter on PBS I remember watching with my late father during the mid to late eighties (reruns), so my nostalgia is strongest with him, and you have to give William his due, he was first, he trained Bob Ross.
he was bobs teacher.
Well aware of that. Well aware of their rivalry, too.
King Carriere Victor Castro Bob was not an amateur. He always mentioned that he did traditional painting for years before discovering the wet on wet method. Which he did from stumbling upon Bill's show while in the Air Force, in addition to the time Bill trained him. By the way, the concept of a certification program for instructors in this method started with Bill as well. Nevertheless he had painting from a young age, but the Alexander style painting came later in life. Bob was about 40 when The Joy of Painting started.
Their comment may seem insensitive to Bob, but I can understand Alexander Art's frustration with so many things that Bill innovated being more heavily associated with Bob. Granted Bill certainly didn't invent wet on wet painting, which goes back 500 years or so. However he certainly modernized it and made it accessible to the masses. It's like being a Rolling Stones fan while writing off the blues musicians that inspired them. Likewise if you love Bob Ross then you should appreciate the man who made his career possible.
Agreed.
Beautiful.
Totally agree. I took up painting in Retirement. Best decision. Great Healing Power and Mental Relaxation!
🙌 👏 🙏 🤝
This is My favorite Episode Of his Show
He’s such a character!
I like this bloke, he's entertaining.
He says that golfers don't paint. Yes they do. I like to golf and I paint. Watching Bill relaxes me. He's better than a hot cup of coffee.
Raise your hand if you wanna take a 2” brush and pull down those reflections and go across with one hair and a bunch of air? 😊 Beautiful painting though.
11:16.........Brings out the werewolves. Bill you're the best!!!
William Hayes . I thought at first that maybe I had misheard him but No , that’s just Bill , he is brilliant . I doubt there is any other painting tutor on the planet who would use a phrase like that while expressing their painting .
Just marvellous .
Used to love how excited he'd get, and he'd say: "Oh Mighty Mountain!" "Fire it in"!!!
ONE STROKE, THIS ALMIGHTY STROKE
I love Bill XD
I don't know if I like Ross's happy soft attitude of Alexander's louder more straight forward attitude. both are great.
Happy 25k subs guys!
