I began watching Bob Ross on PBS... dreamed of being able to bring a canvas to life like he did with just the smallest amount of paint. Always amazed when he would in 30 minutes create a picture that made you feel like you could step right into the scene. give ma a pencil and paper and ask me to draw and I will look at you in despair....but now give me a blank canvas some paint and brushes and putty knife and I will create you something. I am still learning, that will never end. I have to say that when I am painting all the worries in my life seem to fade away. I truly feel that this is a gift from God, and to him I give all the glory.
