AOM Meditations: Bob Ross Quotes

Landscape painted by Bob Ross

Quotes from Bob Ross
(A man I admire)

~*~

There are no mistakes - just happy accidents.

~*~

The secret to doing anything 
is believing that you can do it. 
Anything that you believe you can do 
strong enough, 
you can do. 
Anything. 
As long as you believe.

~*~

We want happy paintings. 
Happy paintings. 
If you want sad things, 
watch the news.

~*~

Traditionally, art has been for the select few. We have been brainwashed to believe that Michelangelo had to pat you on the head at birth. Well, we show people that anybody can paint a picture that they're proud of. It may never hang in the Smithsonian, but it will certainly be something that they'll hang in their home and be proud of. And that's what it's all about.

~*~

Gotta have opposites dark and light, 
light and dark in painting. 
It's like in life. 
Gotta have a little sadness once in a while 
so you know when the good time come.
I'm waiting on the good times now.

~*~

"I'd like to wish you happy painting, 
and God bless my friend."

~*~

Here's a little ditty that makes me feel good
