It would be a great way to pass the time on the train, even work up some ideas before committing the oils to the canvas, or try out a new medium (it can do watercolor styles as well). I’ve been tempted to go that route for the notetaking capabilities, and now, if I could do paintings? Well, that could be fun.

Now, for me, this is really quite uncharted territory, as there’s no iPad in the house here that is new enough to be able to work with the Apple Pencil (or the apparently quite nice Logitech alternative). With the new Adobe Fresco app, that could certainly be less of a hindrance.

I enjoy it, but making time for the painting (and then the cleanup) can often stop me from heading to the workbench. I long enjoyed his shows as a relaxing time, and a little while ago was able to jump into actually doing it when my wife picked up some starter supplies for me. You know, the style popularized by the man himself, Bob Ross. For those who may not know, I enjoy myself a bit of wet-on-wet technique oil painting.
