About Nicholas Hankins

Nicholas Hankins began painting along with Bob Ross on his local public TV
station in 1993. He was just eleven years old when he got his first Bob Ross paint kit, saying he felt “an indelible excitement that day which has grown
exponentially over the past three decades.” 

Nicholas is a Certified Bob Ross Instructor and host of the new how-to painting series The Joy of Painting with Nicholas Hankins: Bob Ross’ Unfinished Season.

This virtual event will take place via Zoom Webinar. 

Zoom is free to the public but requires a computer download. You can download Zoom here.
