          I can feel a giant afro spiraling out of my head as I watch, leaving me with the urge to mutter to myself as I delightfully add pine trees to a hill side…
Oh God, couldn’t we all use a man like Bob Ross right now?

          Contrast: bad ASMR.
I wonder if one of the reasons we find it satisfying is because it looks very much like butter cream frosting, which evokes Proustian memories of birthday cakes?

          I have zero art talent; I do paint by numbers mostly just for an excuse to mix the colors and see how they come out. Maybe i’ll just start mixin’ and forget the rest.
