I Followed a Bob Ross Painting Tutorial and Here's What Happened

Tatum Swanson

Everyone is obsessed with Bob Ross. He has the most soothing voice in the world, the coolest hair a man could have, and painting skills better than anyone. It's hard not to learn a little bit and genuinely enjoy his painting videos.

A lot of YouTubers have been participating in a challenge where they follow along to a Bob Ross painting tutorial. There have been some beautiful recreations and a handful of epic fails, but all in all, it is a unique challenge. I'm not a YouTuber nor did I intend on making any sort of video documenting the experience, but I thought it would be fun to follow along to a video and see how my painting would turn out.

For most college students, summer has a variety of purposes. For some, it's an opportunity to work more and save up some money or volunteer to get in some extra hours. For others, it's an opportunity to lay back and just enjoy the sun and live life to the fullest. For me, I always thought my summers had to be one way or the other, and so I always leaned toward the side of working more, taking more classes, and extra volunteer hours.

If you constantly live your life trying to push yourself beyond you limits, it can exhaust you. If you focus on the things you're good at and never try to expand your horizons, you're not going to get very far.

This fall was my boyfriend and I's two-year anniversary! In the past for special occasions, we've typically gone out for a movie and dinner or just did something fun in general. However, in the year of COVID, we didn't really feel safe doing something like that.

Instead, we wanted to try something new that kept us significantly more socially distanced. Luckily, I found a TikTok trend a few months ago that gave me the perfect idea! The Target TikTok trend blew up all over for couples and friends alike. It seemed like a fun activity for us but also a good way to get each other gifts that we might not have thought about.
