I've started trying. Thank you because this is extremely helpful. So cool!! And your painting is inspiring. Beautiful!

Wow! These are great! I like your style :)

Thank you so much!!!!

So cute. Keep going. You only improve with each painting.

Thank you!!! So fun and time flies but in a good in the moment way.

Incredible

i really should use these tips

Amazing! Very helpful!

Love your use of a flat brush to achieve all the different strokes, its so fun watching & learning as a true talent applies his skills. Thanks for the tips

Wow!

Lindo!

Is it possible to purchase a print of this work?

Very nice 🎨🖼️

wow so incredible

Just beautiful!... Thanks for sharing these artistic tips... I'm afraid I will never have your artistic skills, but now, ask me to write you a Documentary, that's a different story! 😉

Stunning ! Thanks for the tips ♥️ I am an amateur for way too many years . More used to portraits than landscapes whose technique has always evaded me . You work is incredible .

I've been trying to decide whether to sell or donate the art supplies I haven't used for 10 years, and you've helped me decide to try using them this weekend.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love posting my own artwork here on bluesky using the hashtags #art #acrylicpainting #abstractart etc. I get wonderful feedback. Just saying✌🏽☮️ (it motivates me to paint more.😉)

Ahhh this is so cool! Thank you for sharing 🤩

❤️

Paint is an absolutely wild medium. Thanks for sharing this!

🤩 Very nice

@ohlookbirdies.bsky.social saw your post this morning, then saw this now.

This is great, beautiful painting

Wow. Incredible

That looks fantastic. Nice work.

Sharing your gift. Love your finished painting, thank you Jim.

❤️❤️❤️

Did you paint the first part? Or is that somehow printed on the canvas?

I use Copic sketch markers to draw my composition prior to painting.

Terrific technique upon this beautiful painting❣️

Beautiful 🌅

Beautiful! and GREAT tips!

I saw in the comments acrylic paint. Any particular brand? Thank you. Gorgeous!!

Golden fluid acrylics

Nice! I have those. You have given me some ideas. Thanks again!

Acrylic paint?

Yes

Nice! Thanks for the tips I’ll go try again and then another canvas in the trash lol.

✔️✔️💙

Lovely painting!

👌👍🖼🎨👏

📌

Wow, beautiful!

Wonderful!

Are you painting on top while it’s still wet? Is that oil? How do you make it look easy? Do I sound jealous?…..👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

No I typically wait for the previous layer to dry, but it’s acrylic so it dries in minutes.

Cool artwork

My most successful sky paintings I paint red as the base ad then layer blue over it. Makes it pop.

Freaking gorgeous! I aspire to be able to paint like this one day with traditional media.

Excellent painting process, i use watercolours and mix media

Thanks, Jim! It’s great hearing you think aloud about your process. Although I am using water colors right now, I’m learning a lot about composition from you. Thank you for being here

Gonna keep this on hand for a reference thanks for the upload!

Thanks

Awesome lesson!

Beautiful work. Love this style!

Acrylics?

Yes

A good underpainting is a joy to see.

Why dont you just use AI?

Because it is a part of the process of creation, learning to create and doing it. None of us are so lazy to let a computer do it for me

I really appreciate art, the detail and time put into it shows pure talent. This is a wonderful way to enjoy the day, so peaceful.

Beautiful! If only I was talented 🤷‍♀️

I remember painting class and asking once why we put very light details first. It’s because it could be more difficult to get those bright colors with the darker background!

Exactly

I’m horrible at painting, but I enjoyed it!

Beautiful!

That looks so beautiful!!

Thank you! That’s great!

As a desert dweller I have to admit that your painting truly captures the tranquil warmth and glow of our afternoon sunsets. Just beautiful! 🌵🏜️

Awesome Jim.

📌

That’s brilliant! Never seen that done before.

Hauntingly beautiful

I really admire your work. My son is a professional magician, the magic is not knowing how it’s done but in this case I’m blown away.

Nicely done. It would be helpful to mention if you are using oil or acrylics. Obviously, it’s not watercolor.

Acrylics

You are absolutely incredible! Thank you for sharing these tips.

Could watch you paint all day. These tips are really helpful. You are appreciated!

Thanks for sharing! This is fantastic!

BEAUTIFUL!

You are the next Bob Ross without the fro, bro.

This is reminding me of my childhood. I miss living in the desert but i don’t miss the heat 😌😮‍💨. It such a beautiful painting too🩷

Thank you

This painting reminds my of a magazine my parents used to subscribe to when I was a kid called Arizona Highways. They had so many photos that looked like this. I loved to sit for hours and look at them.

Arizona Highways is a family memory for me too

I checked and they're still publishing the magazine. That's cool.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful paintings and artistic inspiration. I love your work!

It is not just your talent I appreciate; it is your knowledge too!

📌

Very nice. Love it.

Wow 😍 it's incredible to see how this is done. Fascinating and so gorgeous! ☺️👏🏼

Thanks so much. I don’t paint, but I always admired people who can.

Superb! You're getting closer to Joshua Tree National Park :-)

🫶🏼🫶🏼🔥🔥absolutely beautiful!

That’s so cool. I need to start painting again.

What in the Bob Ross.... just like that man, I looked away for a second and we went from "a few little happy bushes here" to "finished masterpiece". Very nice.

Oh my god that’s gorgeous!

That is lovely. Thanks for sharing

📌

Beautiful!

Are you using Acrylics?

Yes

Could you share the mediums you used? Amazing what you created, using the technic you did, to bring it about?🥹

JimMusil.com/materials

Love that. Thanks!!

Wow!

@stevewriteswords.bsky.social

Fabulous.

Lovely

Does this work on stick people? Lovely work man

I am SO jealous because this is SO effortlessly beautiful and I can't draw anything, not even a straight line.

What brush and number are you using?

Jimmusil.com/materials

Thank you for the info, it’s much appreciated.

Just had multiple Bob Ross moments then...By that I mean I was like 'OMG he's just ruined it....Oh wait no he hasn't"

Thanks

I could watch you do that all day. It was really relaxing. Thanks for making a video explaining this.

Thanks for the tips Jim. I love your work!

Still life painted in the dark

Excellent

...I am so envious. That looks terrific.

I love seeing the process!

GORJUSS!

Wow! Thanks for sharing the process.

Wow!

🥰

Am I the only one who, as soon as they used the Orange all over it was like, "Nooo!!! They ruined it!!" 😂😂🤣🤣 I'm glad the end product looks amazing!

Lovely!

Loved this!

As a painter,I love watching paint move Thank you

It was breathtaking when those red mountains came in!

Look like peace of shit

Thanks! This is super helpful!

How long have you been painting? every artwork I’ve seen from you is incredible

8 years or so I guess. Thanks!

Dang that’s a long time, I hope to be as good as you some day

Bob Ross.

Fabulous.
