The Joy of Painting

Slather on a beige base coat

create a smooth, clear canvas.

Carefully, select an eye shadow palette

color choice is up to me.

Brush on mascara, contour with blush

making happy little cheeks!

Pale, shimmering pink for

happy little lips!

Bob Ross is right—

anyone can do this.

A piece of lined paper with a drawing of Bob Ross painting a mountain landscape. Ross faces the reader with a toothed smile and holds a wide paintbrush in his left hand. His hair is styled in a curly, medium-length perm. He has a mustache and short beard.
A person with dark medium-short hair sits in front of a short table cluttered with objects. They hold a tube of lipstick and look to the reader with a smile. They wear a long-sleeved shirt and shorts.
