my first time oil painting (ft. Bob Ross) 🎨🏔️

YOOO!! Today, we are learning from the legendary Bob Ross. While i may not be able to master his knife painting techniques or understand how his wet-on-wet painting works (this is my first time touching oil paint), witnessing his process and following along did teach me a lot about th joy of painting. This man absolutely loved what he did and thats just so freaking cool.

Hope u like this silly little art vid! I am so sorry to any oil painters out there that had to watch this struggle. Idk how yall do it??? Anywayss if you have any fave Bob Ross phrases please share so we can collectively appreciate how great he was!!

So excited for this!!
My grandmother used to repeat this Bob Ross quote all the time: “talent is a pursued interest. Anything that you’re willing to practice, you can do”
It’s something I love to remind myself of when I get major art imposter syndrome lol

'dont let a mountain scare you!'
this is the most wonderful, wholesome, and whimsical activity!

[petrouchka_]

loved this! (especially the part where you're like "i'm not pushing my luck with this last tree", that would be me too 😂)

[nanamouraart]

It turned out fantastic! I can feel the joy myself

[jensewsvintage]

the time stamps have me DEAD lol love the chill vibes sometimes need to watch some bob to feel relaxed

Your painting is so good for a first time! I’ve been debating between getting into painting or upgrading my iPad or getting a bigger drawing tablet. Now this makes my decision harder because this looks so fun!

[michaelmccoy-zg]

you are so inspiring! - I love Bob Ross - and when I was a little little kid I used to watch reruns of this guy named Jon Gnagy and he was just like Bob: if you wanted to draw and paint and your heart was in it, you could do anything - and your first oil painting was so good! - and when you said 'he's trying to teach me but I won't listen" well that was my whole school career right there - this was one fantastic video, and I think what I love most is that you won't let anything stand in your way - good for you! - (but please buy a pallette! - lol)

this was so sweet and entertaining to watch! you inspired me to want to do a bob ross tutorial too, maybe for one of my artist dates 😊

[Sandra-lkyt]

Are you kidding me? You did amazing! Good job, I can’t believe for your first time how it turned out, that oil painting is gorgeous 🥰 so happy for you for ticking off a goal you’ve wanted to do for so long. Love that feeling 🙌🏻 thanks for the good vibes!

Bob is teaching right hand technique, if you flipflop the image you could use it as a left hander

[casualfrog.]

Oh my gosh, this is one of my favourite blogs you've done! ♡

[janeallen]

Perhaps someone else has mentioned that Bob advised to use a paper towel over the surface to remove excess of the Liquid white or liquid back. When you are using the knife I think the shape of the knife was backward because you are left handed. ( My husband and oldest daughter were/ are lefties...so I know the complexity you encounter.
As for the speed of the painting...he developed techniques with practice (why he did more than one review painting) so he could complete a full painting in 1/2 hour. That was so we didn't have to watch multiple programs to see a completed painting. He always would say his time was limited but you could take as much time as you needed at home.
I did take one of the classes his folks teach. I have a really beautiful painting completed in a half hour. I was amazed! Enjoyed your video.

I've been watching Bob ross for months and I'm still stuck on getting my paint to break when doing mountains lol. Your first attempt is far better than every attempt I've made so far for sure! I need your patience

[juliegarrington]

No happy little clouds? 😂. I think you did an amazing job! ❤

[MayWonder]

i'm sorry but I just laughed so much when you dropped it. this was super cool. I loved it.

[ChantelleArts]

I've never seen bob ross before but now I wanna watch the whole thing 😂

[SydneyDix-fy]

wait that turned out so good! well done :)

[lifeinmultiplicity]

Yayyy Bob Ross love! I never noticed how huge his palette was...or how huge his afro was haha. Your painting turned out great!! If you'd like some more challenges it'd be cool to see you attempt a paint by numbers and give it some style! I used to love doing those but they always came out so basic so I would try to change them a bit to fit my style.

[VoodooSalad]

This was heaps of fun to watch! The fall gave me a mini heart attack though : D
