Bob Ross-along

Join us to paint along with artist Bob Ross!

Bob Ross was an American artist who believed that everyone has an inherent artistic talent and could become an accomplished artist given time, practice, and encouragement, and to this end was often fond of saying, “We don’t make mistakes; we just have happy accidents.”

During his TV show Bob Ross instructs viewers how to create an oil painting using a quick style which is broken down into simple steps.

We will be streaming two episodes of Bob Ross on a big screen during the event and getting all of you to paint-along with oil paint!

We will have a Certified Bob Ross Instructor with us!! Tony Goldthorpe will give you all a brief introduction to the Bob Ross technique before the first episode is streamed!

You do not need to be able to paint to join this paint-along, it is just about having fun and making a mess – or happy accidents as I’m sure Bob would put it!

Painting along with Bob is not easy, he plans his painting and he paints quick! There will be no pauses of the show. This is why it’s going to be hilarious!

Materials will be provided (that what your ticket cost is).

But feel free to bring your own tools if you wish.

We will be using – a 1 inch brush, a skriptliner brush (or just a thin brush), a fan brush, a pallete knife and a big pallete for the paint.

Please bring your own lunch or let us know if you want jacket Potato.
We will be making an order of jacket potatoes to be delivered to the Old Fire Station with World Famous Tattie Tim, who has an array of wonderful toppings, let us know if you are interested in a jacket potato by emailing info@myriadstudio.uk

This event is open to everyone of all ages but children must be supervised at all times, please let me know if you are purchasing a ticket for a child.

Please bring an apron if you can and wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy, Bob always wore pale shirts during the show which you could try pick up from a second hand shop. (You could probably find a brown curly wig too…)
