Quick Lazy River is painting #61. It is so named because I did the Bob Ross episode called Lazy River but I tried to paint it as fast as I could. Recall the first Lazy River. I did that one quickly but on a smaller canvas and it took about 45 minutes. This one took …
Now here’s something different! I streamed this on St. Patrick’s Day. I wanted to do something fun and that went along with the theme of the day. Bob has done some monochromatic paintings in a few episodes so I did something along those lines but using sap green. To do a monochromatic painting like this, …
This is Northern Lights, part 3. Meaning this is the third time that I’ve done this particular scene. Check out Part 1 and Part 2 to see how they all compare. This is also the third painting I streamed on Twitch. For my Twitch audience, I wanted to show them something cool. And one of …
Mountain Waterfall is painting #58 and the 2nd painting I streamed live on Twitch. Following Bob Ross, I create a tiny waterfall tucked beside a glassy lake, while surrounded by snowy majestic peaks and distant evergreens. I had only planned one painting for that weekend but I had so much fun doing it live on …
Mt. McKinley is painting #57. This is a replica of Bob Ross’s first mountain painting and it marks sort of a milestone, if you will, in my painting hobby. It is the first painting I did on Twitch, the live streaming platform. This is not the first time I have painted live in front of …
This painting is hardly considered a proper painting but I have to count it because someone actually bought it! I just finished the previous painting and had some paint leftover that I didn’t want to waste. I tried to convince my wife to have a go but she wasn’t feeling it. So what I did …
Blue Hills is painting number 55. It is an original painted using the wet on wet technique and basic Bob Ross type elements. It is painted on a smaller canvas because that was all I had at the time. I was still living away from home. This also happens to be the last painting I …
Lazy River is painting #54. This one came about as sort of an accident. I had started doing a totally different painting with a black canvas. That didn’t work out so I had to ditch it. The only problem is that I had already put out the paint. Couldn’t waste it so I grabbed a …
Meadow Walk is painting #53 and the first painting of 2019. It is painted with acrylics and gesso. At the time of this painting I was still living away from my house. I was staying in an AirBnb about 45 minutes away. Since it was relatively close, I decided to bring some of my art …
Silver Linings is painting #52. There is something special about this one. A major life altering event occurred between my last painting, Peaceful Waters and this one. A very powerful hurricane hit the panhandle of Florida where I live. It severely damaged my house and I was displaced for nearly 5 months. You can read …
Peaceful Hideaway is my 51st painting! Take a stroll down to that perfect little fishing spot tucked away from the world, and relish the beauty of the day secluded in a peaceful hideaway.

Mopang Lake is painting #50. Yet another original. It had been a while since I did a Bob Ross painting. This one was commissioned for my cousin. He sent me a picture and asked me to paint it for his girlfriend’s parents to hang in their lake house on Mopang Lake. Mopang lake is located …
Mt. Ranier is painting #49. It is another original and the 6th painting in a row that wasn’t a Bob Ross replica. The inspiration for this painting was a photo someone posted on Reddit as a challenge to fellow Bob Ross style painters. I accepted the challenge and this is the result. I painted the …
Kodiak Spring is painting #48 and is actually a commission. An old coworker I used to work with in Germany contacted me on Instagram and asked me to paint a picture of Mt. Barometer in Alaska. This mountain held some special meaning to him as that’s where he spend some of his childhood. He noticed …
The Path is painting #47. It is an original and painted using a similar technique as Rays of Sunshine. I got the idea from a photo I saw online. The photographer edited the photo in such a way that most of it was black and white but he only allowed a single color to show. …
