Veterans Can Learn to Paint Like Bob Ross

St. Clair County Veterans have an opportunity to paint like Bob Ross. The St. Clair County Department of Veterans Affairs and St. Clair County Community Mental Health have teamed up to bring Ted Simpson from Nature’s Brush Studio to the CMH Auditorium for an engaging art class.

The class is open to 20 St. Clair County Veterans, and it takes place on April 17th from 11 AM until 2 PM. Interested vets need to register now by calling (810) 966-3755 or emailing Wendy Martindale at St. Clair County CMH (wmartindale@scccmh.org) to secure their spot.

Organizers encourage participants to arrive 10 minutes early for the class, and they will provide a light snack during the event. COVID-19 safety practices will be in place, and masks are required during the class.

Ted Simpson, owner of Nature’s Brush Studio, is a Certified Bob Ross Instructor. He believes everyone can paint like Bob Ross, even if they’ve never picked up a brush. Simpson teaches group and private lessons both in his home studio in Farmington Hills, Michigan and for various groups and organizations at their locations.
