PAINTING - DIVING IN

If you were asked to paint something, something you liked, what would it be? Well, if you had to paint it, you may choose something easy to paint.

I got my easel set up and bought a 18x24 inch canvas and had already looked on the internet for photographs or pictures to paint, and remembered Bob Ross from on TV from my youth.

I looked him up and youtube had all his TV shows. So I started looking at them and decided I would do some of his stuff and see how he painted. He told you everything you needed to do, and has a quiet voice which made it easy to listen to. He told you what colors of paints and stuff, and when I went back to the Hobby Lobby about 25 minutes south of our town, I got his paints. He actually had his own brand. I definitely made sure I got his ‘Magic White’ for his wet on wet style….
