An Amazing Artist

The Joy Of Painting features Some truly incredible works of art! Robert Norman Ross presents His paintings from the start. He takes us through his process As he creates one cannot speak! He uses very little paint, But a LOT of technique! What may take days for a novice He achieves in a tiny fraction. In a mere half-hour his art Is the result of his brushes action. Some paintings witnessed so far, A moon reflecting on the sea, A hut by a river, a forest... Each telling their story. One little feather from his Imagination he does pluck. Every time I see this show I feel simply Wonderstruck! Written 21st November 2021 For the "Wonderstruck" contest Sponsor: Robert James Liguori

Thank you Gordon. It's a nice program. It's usually on BBC. I couldn't tell you what day or channel as we've dropped on it a time or two and watched. :-)
