Paint Like Bob

One of the best things about the Bob Ross method is that it is great for beginners! And with a Certified Ross Instructor, you CAN do this! You'll learn the techniques that Bob used on his television show "The Joy of Painting", and create your own unique painting!

Certified Ross Instructors have taken special instruction under the tutelage of Teacher Trainers certified by Bob Ross Incorporated. They are officially certified by Bob Ross Incorporated to teach Bob Ross' wet-on-wet oil painting method. You can be confident that a CRI is teaching Bob Ross' wet-on-wet oil painting method in the way Bob Ross himself intended.

Due to the specialized nature of materials that Bob Ross used in his method, all materials (brushes, paint, and easels) are provided by your Certified Ross Instructor. You'll get the best results if you use official Bob Ross Materials.

Note that canvas is usually provided, but check during registration to confirm. Some locations (like art stores) do require a canvas purchased at their location.

For the best results in the Bob Ross method, we do recommend actual Bob Ross materials such as brushes and paint.

If you have Bob Ross materials, most classes will utilize the basics of a 2-inch brush, a 1-inch Landscape Brush, a Fan Brush, a Liner Brush, and a Palette Knife.

You won't need materials for our "Paint Like Bob" classes, as we provide what's needed, but we do understand that you may want your own materials at home to keep applying what you've learned in class! If you're taking classes from us (online or in person), ask us about supplies... we can make some special arrangements for our students!

While some local art stores do have Bob Ross materials, you can find actual materials at BobRoss.com and other online retailers like Amazon. Be sure to look for official Bob Ross products!

Absolutely not! Painting doesn't require any special skills... only a desire to learn and practice. We've taught people well over 80 years old to successfully complete their first ever painting!

Absolutely! We have done private classes for children as young as eight!

Due to the additional attention required for our particularly young students, we do ask that our group classes have students at least 12 years old.

We can certainly set up an online class through Zoom (preferable), or Facebook Live.

We also can travel to states surrounding Nevada for events, though a travel fee may be involved.
