Welcome to Stinky's Art Class. We have the best students in the world. Todays lesson is how to paint an alligator.
Good morning people and welcome to Stinky's Art Class where we have the best students in the world! Today's lesson is how to paint an alligator.

First thing you want to do is go ahead and draw this alligator's mouth. He's got a big mouth. Is that big enough? How about a little bit bigger? Okay, once you got the mouth painted, you want to get those eyeballs in. His eyeballs look like that and I know it's not looking like an alligator without teeth, so let's go ahead and add those in. Look at that! This is looking like some serious alligator teeth.
Okay, next thing you want to do is this. You got the eyeballs, you got the teeth, you gotta draw the body. Okay, the body's not that easy. Okay, you gotta do a body like this. Yeah, I'm doing that. Running out of paint, but it's okay. Stinky's gonna survive. I'll draw the feet. All right, I think I draw his tail next. You may be wondering, 'hey Stinky, what are you doing?" Well, I'll tell you what I'm doing. I'm creating art. You may be thinking this is looking like a weird alligator, but you gotta understand. Stinky's got a mind for this stuff. You've got to have a mind for it, you got to have a vision.
Okay, then you'll be realizing what Stinky's really doing. Okay, now you see it's starting to come together. Oh yeah, I see what you're doing Stinky. If you want to be in the museums, you got to be different. They don't just let any artist in those museums. You gotta prove it, you gotta be a legend. You got to have respect.
And that's what you learn in Stinky's Art Class. You learn how to be a legend, you learn how to have respect, and you're going to become the greatest artist out there. There, see, little details like that's going to help you. Okay, don't forget about these scales on this guy.
Yep okay, what do you think class? Is it time for some paint? We're going to paint this monster. You want to paint this monster green? What do you think class? I think we should try it. Oh yeah, this is looking great. I think he's trying a new paintbrush today. That's the beauty of painting on cardboard, you don't have to worry about buying them expensive canvases. I know you aren't students in college and you professional artists always be having to use the real deal. Well, guess what? You can learn a thing or two from Stinky. Stinky gets to use whatever canvas he wants. That's what freedom is, you know? And this is going to be a long lesson because these alligators got lots of details. Paint these guys, especially with these tiny little brushes. Stinky don't like to get all the paint on it. Stinky likes to make his own art style.
What do you think class? Looking like a pretty good little monster, isn't he? Think I'm just not feeling it. I think we need some gray in here. What do you think? Looking pretty good with that gray. Maybe even put a little bit of black in there. Now we're getting somewhere. It's looking like a monster. Okay, let's figure out these eyes. I'm thinking those look pretty good. Let's see if we can get into this white.
Okay, I can tell this alligator is not looking sleepy, he's wide awake looking for a meal. Now, I'm kind of missing something here. Stinky lost the paintbrush. Oh, I think he found it. Being organized with your paint supplies, your art supplies is a pretty tough job, isn't class? This is some real work. That's real work that we're doing here.
Okay, I think he's gonna go back and finish it up. I think he wants to finish this one up. Ready to move along? It's going to be a good one, but these lessons take a while. But, if you want to be the greatest ever, you gotta put in the work. Stinky needs to give an update about how he's doing on his paintings and drawings.
All right, I didn't know it's nice to have a friend that you can do your artwork with. Do we all have a friend that can help us with our art? So, I want everybody to try to do this. Yeah, I know you might feel vulnerable trying to find a friend to do art with you, but go ahead and try it. If you don't have a friend who's doing art with you, give it a shot and invite someone to come do some art with you. You never know, might be the best thing you ever did.
Okay class, it's getting pretty epic. So, what I want to say is if you're not a student in my class and this is your first video watching, you need to join my art class. You won't regret it. Okay, hope you enjoyed this lesson. I would say it was pretty epic. Okay, thanks for everyone joining the class. Stay tuned for another epic lesson. Class dismissed.
