i believe everyday is a good day when you paint.

give it a little touch, a little push. make love to the canvas;
My younger brother showed me this video the other day. I was feeling sluggish and upset and he brought up this video. Now, I have seen the "Garden of your Mind" Mister Rogers remix ( I have a soft spot for Mister Rogers. Childhood Hero and whatnot), but Bob Ross? How can you not watch this and not feel happy..besides it being an auto tune remix, but nonetheless.

I think anyone who had a childhood consisting of PBS television shows had a really good childhood.Not everyone thinks that Bob Ross is the man, but I remember sitting in front of the tv with my parents, rolling my eyes to this weird, white guy with an awkward afro..until we watched him unravel this landscape from these simple strokes and stuff. Jaw dropped and mind blown. I would call this my first exposure to the art world and inspiration to deciding my career route would definitely go towards art. That was my mind set. Doesn't matter what I do.
