Description

Young artists can learn to paint just like television's favourite painter, Bob Ross, with these simple-to-follow lessons! In the officially licensed Painting with Bob Ross for Kids, children discover how to create stunning natural landscapes such as Happy Trees Along a Cabin Path, Surfing at Sunset, and Scenic Snowy Summit, alongside a cartoon Bob Ross who encourages them at every step!

The fun illustrations, easy instructions, and a lighthearted happy accidents approach make this subject matter enjoyable for young painters, regardless of skill level. With step-by-step instructions by certified Bob Ross painting instructor Doug Hallgren, along with fun cartoons by illustrator Alfredo Intocci, Painting with Bob Ross for Kids teaches 10 classic Bob Ross paintings with kid-friendly painting techniques.

This is twice as many painting projects—five more—than the Bob Ross for Kids: Happy Lessons in a Box painting kit (which includes supplies and a booklet containing instructions for five of the paintings). While the lessons are aimed at children ages six to eight, anyone can enjoy them, even if you are only a kid at heart.

With this book, youngsters can paint:

A snowy mountain
A desert landscape
A beach at sunset
A springtime waterfall
And more!

First learn how to set up a painting studio, and then dive into any painting to start. Follow along, step by step, using the Bob Ross method, and see how easy and fun it is to paint!

For more than 40 years, Bob Ross has transformed TV viewers into painters. His Joy of Painting programme is the most recognised, most watched TV art show in history. Millions of fans of all ages and from around the globe still relax and unwind with Bob's gentle manner and encouraging words on television and online via Twitch and YouTube, captivated by the magic that takes place on canvas.
