My name is Tony Rodriguez. I’m an illustrator and educator at Middle Tennessee State University and I’m a fan of Bob Ross’s Joy of Painting series.

I’ve managed to complete several of my own Bob Ross-inspired landscape paintings in Procreate and along the way have put together a set of brushes that work well for the many items and objects that Bob regularly creates with his usual brush kit i.e. skies, mountains, tree lines, land masses, evergreen trees, reflections, and birch trees.

I’ve left a complete list of brushes below:
