Bob Ross. The man. The artist. The legend. I used to watch Bob paint when I was a kid and I knew he was a genius. He was always so in tune with nature and it came across in his paintings. In my humble opinion, he will always be better than I am, because he had squirrels for friends. How peaceful must the human soul be to be friend creatures so small, and make us all feel that they are so important? I rant about Bob to this day, mostly because the wet on wet technique doesnt work well for my art…especially with acrylic paint. This is not the first post I’ve done dedicated to Mr. Ross. It wont be the last. Check out this article with random facts about Bob and let me know your thoughts. Happy painting.

Article: The Power of Talking to God
I came across this article by Emily Storia in my afternoon web browsing and was thrilled. Those who know me well, know that my daily mantra is ‘all things through prayer and meditation’. I get excited when our conversations shift from gossip and current events, to things that I feel are important…like our gratitude for what we have and love for the art of creation. Let me take this moment to encourage every reader! You exist for a reason. You are special. Get to know your creator and fall in love with yourself.
