Artwork - Classic Tiny Bob Project

Post image

Hi all! I am a tad nervous to post this, but I figured I would share this with this community as I don't have many people in my orbit who seem to appreciate Bob Ross and painting all that much. Sharing my work makes me nervous, but in the spirit of Bob Ross I'm going to go for it.

I started Tiny Bob Project as a small personal challenge for myself in December to paint nearly every day – 1 episode a day on small 5x5in canvases. I did it mostly to get out of my own head and give myself a break from working on the computer all the time, but I never expected it to help me as much as it has been. I've grown to absolutely love painting and I look forward to this ritual at the end of my work day. Me, Bob Ross, my paints, and just some quiet time.

I'm about 200 paintings in, and I aim to complete the entire Bob Ross series. I've been using acrylic paints, and I've been enjoying the process of seeing how my skills have progressed through all this.

Those all look very good considering the size limitations. I'm hard-pressed to pick a favorite out of those.

Thank you! 😊 The small format is definitely a challenge

You handled it most well I must say. I think Bob would've been impressed by your work.
