Painting A Bob Ross Scene On A Dresser | Cozy Winter Collab | Elegant Upgrades

[@kellywilliams5112]

I restore antiques, and I have taken several Bob Ross classes going all the way back when he was still alive, I have never seen anyone do a Bob Ross painting on a dresser... this is BRILLIANT!!!! ..LOL ... very creative and fun!!!

[@elegantupgrades]

I’m so JEALOUS!!! I’d love to take Bob Ross painting classes. I used to watch him all the time when I was small- he was so calming.

[@CopperCactusDIY]

Omg Taryn! Please immediately stop saying you're not very good at stuff like this. I'm blown away! I can't believe this is the first time you've painted this type of scene. This is gorgeous, love everything about this piece. You're a true artist 😍

[@elegantupgrades]

Haha, thanks, Jenn! But truly- Bob did all the work. That guy was magical. It’s super fun to see what can come from a bit of paint, though!

[@mandydriscoll2043]

It's beautiful...you should sign your piece

[@elegantupgrades]

Oh!!! Good idea! With the classic red on a liner brush ☺️

[@deborahmatatall]

I do not even know where to start! You have said before that you aren’t really an artist. I think we can agree that’s untrue. I’ve seen other people’s Bob Ross attempts and they are not this! I love the way you just blended the drawer pulls right into the painting. That’s perfect. The stain you chose has enough of a warm brown undertone to warm up this piece. The way you took advantage of the shape of this piece to create the appearance of a “frame” around the painting is brilliant! I love the things you create but this has just absolutely blown me away! It’s perfect.🌸

[@elegantupgrades]

Deborah! You always make my day with your comments! I’m so so happy with how this one turned out and I would like to try more. It was very satisfying to watch it develop. And Bob was excellent at teaching, I really just followed along everything he said to do.

[@hickorygolddoc]

Well that came off fantastically. Well done!! No one would ever guess that this is your first painting. And it was a perfect piece to do as the trim around looks like a frame! Really doing it in shades of Gray was the best choice and then that warm gray around it... stunning! As is your color choices and ability to follow Bob Ross so very well on your first try. Love it. From a fellow Oregonian in Yamhill county. 🥰 Oh and I did framing for twenty some years!

[@elegantupgrades]

How cool!!! We are practically neighbors! And it was just luck that this dresser had the framed look. I was just looking for a flat front and this one ended up being perfect! Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@MadCityModern]

One of the best painted furniture pieces I have ever seen. The way you tied everything together in this video made it feel like I was watching a movie. It was so peaceful and I didn't want it to end. Thank you, and congratulations on all of your success! Barry

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Barry! I really appreciate your feedback. It was nice chatting with you.

[@nessavee2205]

I started tearing up when you had Bob's video playing while you were painting the sky. His voice with the background music while watching you, a blossoming artist, be inspired by him just hit me right in my heart. That gentle, wonderful man has inspired so many people over a span of decades. This piece turned out absolutely beautiful and I couldn't think of a better way to portray a cozy winter than with a gorgeous Bob Ross inspired painting. Amazing job! This was so great to watch. Thank you for sharing this.

[@elegantupgrades]

Wow, Vanessa! You’re hitting me right in the feels. Thank you for your comment, it means more than you know.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Wow! I wish I could paint ;-) that is super cool. Thanks for participating in the challenge

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Karol! So glad to be a part of it!

[@bluecurlygirl]

Taryn, it's absolutely amazing. I KNEW you could do it. I'm just in awe. Seriously well done. I could just hear him saying "happy little trees". Bravo girl. Edit: My adult son doesn't over enthuse about much but when I showed him the finished piece he said "Wowee". That's a HUGE compliment.

[@elegantupgrades]

Oh! That’s so nice! Thank you, Emer (and son 😉)!!! I’m so glad I tried it- it was very enjoyable to sit and watch it develop.

[@robbiem5975]

What a great idea! Also, that would be awesome in someone's winter cabin or an Airbnb in a cold area...

[@elegantupgrades]

Ooohhh! Good idea to put it in a cabin or AirBnB! I was trying to figure out how to market such a strange piece.

[@stacylabruyere2980]

I think it looks fabulous!! Stepping outside your comfort zone REALLY worked for you. Hope to see more!!

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Stacy! Why is it always to terrifying 😂 I’m glad this one turned out ok.

[@cookinginthecabin]

This is amazing! Bob Ross would be proud 😊

[@elegantupgrades]

Aw! Thank you!!!

[@meaquindinho541]

I love that!!! What a clever idea. You should be proud of that piece- it turned out delightful. No one would guess it was your first time doing such thing from the results. You rock! ✨❤️

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much! I am pretty proud of it- I didn’t think it was going to turn out at all 😂

[@theravenscachecottage]

OMG an homage to my absolutely favourite person ever … THE ALMIGHTY BOB ROSS 🥰🥰🥰. Without shame I can say I’ve seen every single episode he’s ever done. Totally inspired! Well done!

[@elegantupgrades]

Meee toooo! I watched him when I was small and as an adult I’ve seen all of them on the KZbin channel. He’s just so calming to watch. Thank you so much!

[@theravenscachecottage]

His voice is so calming. I still watch him every night to sleep. Lol. Someone who knows his art will totally appreciate this piece and scoop it up fast!

[@diytainment]

Wow that’s an awesome piece! Very impressive! That dresser was basically a canvas begging to be painted. Well done!😃👍🏽

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much! It did end up being the perfect piece for it- I got lucky on that.

[@ritacollins2635]

I think bob ross would be very proud of you, and for bringing new eyes into the world of the late great bob ross , you honoured him well, great effort

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much!

[@OurFurnitureFlippingAdventure]

I am beyond impressed. This is fantastic! 🤩🤩🤩

[@elegantupgrades]

Aw, thanks, Sarah!

[@gwydienne]

I absolutely love Bob Ross, so using him as an inspiration really grabbed my attention - what you did with it was amazing. I'm usually someone who really loves color but this wouldn't look right any other way. Great job!!! I would really love to see what you can do with some of his other shows.

[@elegantupgrades]

I love him, too! And I’d love to try some others that he has! I chose this one specifically because it was only gray tones. I figured this would have to go to a specific buyer and I felt like I’d have a larger chance of selling if it was more neutral. And I could be completely wrong about that. I literally have nothing to compare, but those were my thoughts.

[@secondchanceohana]

Absolutely Gorgeous, Taryn! It should sell so fast. Just beautiful!!!! - Sherry

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Sherry! Let’s hope so! But I think it may sit for a minute. I believe it will take a special buyer. But that’s ok, I won’t mind looking at it while I wait.

[@marilyntyger5253]

I met Bob Ross and feel he would have been so pleased watching you paint this dresser. Fabulous job!

[@elegantupgrades]

That is so nice, thank you! And wow! I would have to loved to of met him.

[@glendacox6540]

Bob would be overjoyed at your success! I too, watched and learned to paint from his tutorials over 20 years ago. I truly miss his spirit….

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Glenda. That’s so very kind. I’m so glad we have all of his old episodes to watch and remember him by. He was clearly an excellent teacher.

[@doddnejadfard3251]

[@elegantupgrades]

Same to you guys, Lemons!

[@cmrod228]

Girl. I can't even with you.. Earlier I commented on your excitement but I want you to know that every time you post a video I get excited too. I loved your Victorian Goth bench and so many others. Some artists paint on canvas and only the wealthy can enjoy their work but your media is furniture that can be USED, passed to family and is affordable to anyone. Thank you!!

[@elegantupgrades]

Ok, just… wow. Thank you so much for your amazingly kind words. I truly appreciate you taking the time to leave me any comment, let alone two. And this one just makes me so happy. I’m so glad you are finding enjoyment in my videos. And I completely agree about furniture, it just lasts. Especially the old stuff and they make memories that are passed down for generations and keep telling their tales. And if I can be a part of that in some small way by adding a bit of stain or paint, I just think that’s so incredible.

[@sharonromer6606]

I love Bob Ross...I'm sure he in Heaven smiling at your beautiful work ❣

[@elegantupgrades]

That’s such a nice though, Sharon! Thank you!

[@kathleenchang9206]

Who would have thought to paint a dresser as you did As everyone has said, Bob Rossi must be smiling down at you because of your talent. People will be clamoring at your door to purchase this outstanding work of art!!!

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Kathleen! Let’s hope so! I feel like it won’t fit in to just anyone’s home- I need someone with a winter themed home 😂

[@kathrynkneeland7179]

You are right, this dresser is very cool. Your vision and artistry are beautiful. All I could see was a junky dresser, you made it a piece of lovely art.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much, Kathryn!!!

[@martinebangs6520]

This dresser is absolutely gorgeous, you should be very proud, it is unique with a very cozy feel to it....Take care...stay safe...

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much, Martine! And same to you!

[@Reulus]

You did a fantastic job. I am not a Bob Ross fan, but I love your translation of his work on furniture. Because it is monochromatic it suits the piece making it look quite elegant. For someone who has never painted before, your landscape has depth, movement, nice details and reflections. Congratulations.

[@elegantupgrades]

Wow, thank you so much! I really appreciate that!

[@ritanarragon8386]

This is amazing! You did a wonderful job and hit the nail on the head with the Winter Cozy theme. It is just beautiful.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much, Rita! You are very kind.

[@seviregis7441]

Ah, finally, someone who actually paints on these furniture pieces. That is such a beautiful winter scene. I’ve been waiting to see one like this. Wonderful. If for any reason it doesn’t sell as is, do you think the cabinet would contrast better in a cool, dark charcoal gray? You said you never painted before, but wow, please keep painting, by all means, you have a lot of talent... and you’re possibly the only one doing it. Do some with animals and natural wood grains. Beach scenes with sand colored wood..., you know...

[@elegantupgrades]

You clearly have more faith in me than I have in myself 🤣 I don’t think I could paint an animal. I would like to try a beach scene of some kind. I think I could maybe do that. It’s all very intimidating, but in rebuy fun to try out! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I really appreciate it!

[@kimmiles9147]

It’s BEAUTIFUL! Never in a million years could I do it but you are so inspirational.

[@elegantupgrades]

Maybe you could! I thought I was going to have to paint over this guy when I was done 😂 He’s a pretty good teacher- especially if you can pause, rewind, play, pause again- wait wait, rewind, play again.

[@elegantupgrades]

I’m so glad you liked it, Toni! I used to watch him with my mom when I was small. I thought he was so cool.

[@lauradyer8532]

WOW 👏 I do Bob Ross painting. The oil stays wet. I don't think I would have tried it w/ Acrylic or chaulk paint. Another amazing piece by a true artist. So proud of you.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Laura! I truly appreciate that. That’s why I messed up in the beginning- I had to go over the whole thing again with the white paint and keep it wet to make it work. I’ve never used oil paints, but I know they have a much longer open time. Oh well, I know for next time. It was really fun to do.

That is the most beautiful dresser I have ever seen! I love love love it! Have always wanted to try a Bob Ross to see if I can make something resembling his if only in a small way as I have zero artistic talent. Zip. I once spent 6 weeks working on a watercolour tree to give to my brother. One of his friends saw it, looked puzzled & asked where it came from. Bro said "my sister painted it" & she looked at me & said "awwww it's so cute! How old were you?" While my darling brother busted a gut laughing I had to confess I was 30 when I painted it.....

Oh, you cracked me up! You should definitely try a Bob Ross video. It was really easy to follow/ I just hit pause and rewind… a lot! I don’t think I could paint something out of my head, I’d end up with my siblings laughing at me as well. I felt like this way took the pressure off. And if I’m being honest, I thought I was going to have to paint over this dresser. I mean, I still draw stick people so… Thank you so much for watching a sharing a bit of your story!

very nice. I paint but I've never tried Bob Ross. Maybe now I will. Great job. it is the prettiest thing ever.

Thank you, Carole. It was fun for me. I’d love to paint. I can’t imagine having something like this come out of my brain. It was nice for me to follow along with Bob Ross. I don’t know how you painters come up with your ideas. Super jealous of your talents.

I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Nice!

[@elegantupgrades]

Haha, it turned out nicer than I thought as well! I figured I’d be painting over it when I was done.

[@lauris5708]

Wow, it turned out great! Nice job! I'm very impressed.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you so much, Lauri!

That is beautiful!!! Amazing!!! You nailed it! You inspired me to try this. My bedroom is a mountain scene because I love to ski. I’m lucky to be here in the PNW. I hope you keep it up. Bob Ross is a true teacher of art!

[@elegantupgrades]

Oh I’m so glad! And we are practically neighbors! You’ll have to let me know how it turns out when you finish it.
