Liquid Opal Oil Paint is one of four Bob Ross Liquid Basecoats essential to the Bob Ross wet-on-wet technique. Each basecoat allows artists to actually blend and mix colors right on the canvas rather than working on the palette. Liquid Opal has a shimmer effect and can also be used to thin other colors for application over thicker paints. The idea that a thin paint will stick to a thick paint is the basis for this entire technique.

Bob Ross colors are an excellent choice for artists who are painting in the same style as Joy of Painting host Bob Ross. This range of Bob Ross artists’ materials has been exclusively designed to create beautiful oil paintings using the successful wet-on-wet techniques made popular by the late leading TV artist Bob Ross.

Bob Ross products are part of a unique system that help even complete beginners to create realistic landscapes, animals or flowers in oil within a few hours. The system uses a special, slow-drying primer ideal for wet-in-wet techniques, special brushes and painting knives, and a comprehensive range of instruction manuals and videos.
