Bob Ross is an ultimate classic. Since having his show, "Beauty Is Everywhere" air on Netflix in 2016, he's gained a little more popularity with the younger crowds.
People have started to throw painting parties where the guests follow along with the show on their own canvas. If you ever watch an episode without painting along, you'll think, "This is so easy. Why don't I start painting?"
This idea is fun in theory, but if there's anyone you least expect to test your patience, it's Bob Ross. And boy will he test it.
1. You sit down, ready to paint, confident as ever.
You've got your paints, your canvas, your confidence...
2. Then the colors start going across the screen and you wish Bob Ross would stop talking for a second so you can catch them.
Bob, you're already painting and I haven't even figured out if I need Phthalo Blue or Prussian Blue on my palette. Maybe both, but I wouldn't know since you won't wait.
3. Wait, we were supposed to have stuff on the canvas already!?
What is liquid white and why did I not know to have it on my canvas already?
4. This isn't so bad now...
The mountain shapes are pretty easy. I can do this now.
5. Wow, would you look at that water!
That highlight across that lake: flawless.
6. "Just tap your brush into these different paints and look at the beautiful colors it makes on the canvas!"
Bob, this looks nothing like your color! How is this supposed to work for me!?
7. Stop painting happy trees for two seconds and help me, Bob!
Go back to the mountain shading, I'm so lost now!
8. STOP WITH THE TREES AND WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH!
I'm not here to play games! You're going way to fast and nothing looks right! How are you so calm!?
9. I'm done with this. I'm just going to randomly paint trees until this episode is done.
There is no "joy in painting." This is all a lie.
10. Well... this painting could be worse.
It looks absolutely nothing like Bob Ross's painting, but I can kind of make out some mountains.
12. Well, that was a stressful half hour but I made it through.
This was a wild ride, but I'm alive.
13. I couldn't have made it through without Bob Ross's soothing words.
Don't tell me that's not something Bob Ross would say.
14. Can't wait to han-- OIL PAINT TAKES HOW LONG TO DRY!?
Apparently oil paint takes six months to dry, so I guess this won't be going up for a while.
We've made our own creations. How have yours turned out?
