Bob Ross

Painting with Mae and Lena

February 20, 2017 by 37 Comments

Mr. Handsome is the oldest of seven children. He and three of his siblings are finished with school and well into their careers, but the three younger girls are still working through their education. The two youngest, Mae and Lena, are in high school.As many of you know, Mr. Handsome is a hobbyist painter. (We are hoping to start selling his masterpieces soon, so stay tuned for more information on that.) For Christmas, my mother-in-law decided she wanted to buy Bob Ross oil painting kits for Mae and Lena, and she enlisted Mr. Handsome and me to help her pick out the supplies.

The girls were thrilled about their gifts and begged Mr. Handsome to give them a painting lesson. My husband patiently gave his sisters step-by-step instructions for about three hours, and their finished products turned out great.

My Hubby the Painter

January 25, 2016 by 48 Comments

As I mentioned in my last post, every single one of his dental patients canceled their appointments on Friday and Saturday because of snow. Most of the roads weren’t plowed, so aside from church on Sunday and a few walks through our neighborhood, we relaxed at home all weekend. It was glorious. And now we have two beautiful new paintings, courtesy of Mr. Handsome. (Click here to see a picture of his first painting from back in December.) My husband is becoming quite the artist. Seeing his face light up when he finishes a painting makes me so happy! Not only does his new hobby act as a stress reliever, but it also gives us meaningful decor to hang in our home.

What do you think?

Just Like Bob Ross

December 20, 2015 by 24 Comments

Yesterday was Mr. Handsome’s first day off (aside from Sundays) in three weeks, and he woke up at 7am! He had received a box of oil paint supplies as an early Christmas present from the staff at his dental practice and wanted to put it to use.My husband painted several pictures as a child, and he mentioned over the summer that he would enjoy picking that hobby back up. So when the office manager asked me for gift ideas, I spent a few hours researching painting supplies and then sent her Amazon links for the Bob Ross Painting Rural America kit and an easel.

(The office manager gave me the credit for doing all the grunt work to make the gift possible, so I ended up inadvertently scoring some wifey points!)

What do you think of Mr. Handsome’s first painting?
