definitely made a lot of “happy mistakes” since environments are not my strong suit, but this was definitely a fun exercise and i hope i can make more of these in the future!!
“And we’ll mix that with another little dab of our Betty Hwite.” Eight months after the hilarious No Good Deed short, Ryan Reynolds has concocted another teaser of Deadpool being Deadpool…and a certain PBS painter. Check it out below. For the kiddies out there, Deadpool is parodying Bob Ross, the beloved host of The Joy of Painting,…
Not often my fountain pen drawing and watercolour artwork gets featured in a music video and cover for a remix of Slick Rick….think of me as the funky Bob Ross! This work was a collaboration with Rhythm Scholar illustrating his wonderful mashup remix of Children’s Story. This was delving more into my design/illustration past yet working more in a loose funky 70’s illustration mood but it was a…
This happy fellow now lives on my floss dresser. He is 3D cross stitched with added floss perm and turkey work beard. The pattern for Bob Ross plus his brush and palette is available in my shop: http://robinsdesign.net/
This was a special collaboration with Bob Ross Inc - I can’t *believe* I had the chance to create an officially licensed portrait! You can watch a time-lapse video of it being created here.
Neat fact: The original Etch A Sketch has been made permanent and is being given away! There are only 2 more days for your chance to nab it - check out this link for deets :)
You know you’ve falling far down the Olicity rabbit hole when you’re watching Bob Ross and this (above) bit of wisdom reminds you of Olicity.

I hope this brings as much comfort to others as it did me
So to explain, during a very traumatic, sad and stressful time in my life, I had my tabby cat for comfort, Twix. He was very docile, snuggly and never hurt anyone his whole life. Unfortunately, when that traumatic time ended, he crossed the rainbow bridge. He had a blockage and passed 4 hours before the emergency vet appointment. I was distraught, lost and alone. So I turned to watching Bob Ross for comfort. I had previously watched Steve Irwin and loved him.
Fast forward 4 years, the loss of is still painful. But picture this. Steve Irwin and Bob Ross guarding the rainbow bridge and looking after the animals who cross it. Steve caring for the less understood animals (spiders, snakes, alligators etc) and Bob caring for the ‘cuter’ ones (birds, deers, cats, dogs, rabbits, squirrels).
Really picture it. Imagine if a beloved pet started to cross.
“Wow. Just look at all that fur.”
“What a sweetheart! I think this one’s for you, mate!”
“What’s your name? Fluffy? Oh that’s a good name. Well, Fluffy, we’ll take great care of you until your owner comes to get you. Would you like to see a painting? It’s got lots of happy little trees in it.”
(Now picture a crocodile crossing)
“I think this big fella might be for you, Steve.”
“Oh wow! What a beauty- look at that tail! Oh I love ‘em!”
(Tiny chick wanders over)
“So small, I don’t wanna hurt you so we’ll be very gentle. Look at your cute little face. I’d like to keep you but that wouldn’t be fair. You’re meant to have a duck mommy. I got one over here, she won’t be lonely now. There..”

Anyhow, I have had chia seeds in my home my entire life and never really viewed them as food until a couple months ago. I now drink about ¼ cup of them in a breakfast shake every morning. It keeps me going until lunch and adds some substance to my protein and vitamineral green powders.
Over the past few months I’ve gone from >190lbs to a stable weight of ~160lbs and I feel amazing. I justified the new sewing machine purchase because if I didn’t have a working machine, I’d be buying all new clothes. Now I just need to practice a lot on some old work pants before I start taking my daily wear stuff in.
I get cold sometimes, I use a bit more force than necessary occasionally, and I look like I’m wearing borrowed clothes but it was worth it. Cutting back on the drinking, going outside, being awake in the daytime, and having no money to sit around snacking and watching TV all day really helped, and so did you!
If you’re trying, you can do it. If you’re not, no big deal.
