Jim & Yvonne Corbett have lived and worked in Arizona for a dozen plus years.  A number of years ago, Jim gave me a Bob Ross Master Painting Kit for Christmas.  I persuaded him to sign up with me for a painting class - knowing he wouldn't follow through with it.  But he did! - he loved it! -  and after experiencing our first painting class as students, we were hooked on the wet-on-wet technique.  Three classes later, we decided to enroll in the Bob Ross Certified Instructor's course ourselves . . .  and we've never looked back.

After teaching classes on a hobby basis for four plus years, we are pursuing our new "career" full time and loving every minute of it.

We bought a little Scotty trailer and converted it to our "travelling palette" to transport our equipment and supplies to our many classes around the Valley.  You'll recognize us on the road with our "Have Palette Will Travel" slogan on the back.  

Outgrowing our spare bedroom, we've completed the construction of our new "studio" next to our house out by the Superstition Mountain in Apache Junction, and are now scheduling monthly classes there as well.  Check out our Calendar and Class Finder pages for details.

We have been members of the Mesa Art League and are current members of the Artists of the Superstitions.  We have shown and sold paintings at various art outlets and donated paintings to worthy community projects around The Valley . . . but our first and foremost interest is our classes and our students. We've met so many, many wonderful people - students, activity directors, and many more in the course of our travels - that the Joy! just spreads further like ripples on a pond.  Bob Ross has left a marvellous legacy, and we're proud to be able to share a small part of it with so many enthusiastic people.

                                   So . . . come share the Joy!

You'll be glad you did!
