As trees get older they lose their chlorophyll. You’re the greatest thing that has ever been or ever will be. You’re special. You’re so very special. All those little son of a guns. With something so strong, a little bit can go a long way.

In your imagination you can go anywhere you want. Mix your color marbly don’t mix it dead. The very fact that you’re aware of suffering is enough reason to be overjoyed that you’re alive and can experience it. This piece of canvas is your world. All you need is a dream in your heart, and an almighty knife.

Anytime you learn something your time and energy are not wasted. Nice little clouds playing around in the sky. Think about a cloud. Just float around and be there. There we go. Just let this happen. We just let this flow right out of our minds.

This is your world, whatever makes you happy you can put in it. Go crazy. Life is too short to be alone, too precious. Share it with a friend. Let your heart be your guide. Happy painting, God bless. We’re not trying to teach you a thing to copy. We’re just here to teach you a technique, then let you loose into the world.

There isn’t a rule. You just practice and find out which way works best for you. Don’t kill all your dark areas – you need them to show the light. Use what happens naturally, don’t fight it. It’s hard to see things when you’re too close. Take a step back and look. We artists are a different breed of people. We’re a happy bunch.

We must be quiet, soft and gentle. If these lines aren’t straight, your water’s going to run right out of your painting and get your floor wet. See there, told you that would be easy. A thin paint will stick to a thick paint. A tree needs to be your friend if you’re going to paint him.

See there how easy that is. For the lack of a better word I call them hangy downs. And I will hypnotize that just a little bit. Everybody’s different. Trees are different. Let them all be individuals.

We don’t have anything but happy trees here. Look at them little rascals. Let’s get wild today. We’ll play with clouds today.
