We’re moving to ESCONDIDO, CA and will begin booking Painting with Rita – Bob Ross® Painting Classes again in Mid-March 2026!

Certified Bob Ross Instructor®, Rita Stafford specializes in the Bob Ross Wet-on-Wet Technique® in both Landscape and Floral oil painting classes.  Painting with Rita is relocating within San Diego County – to Escondido, CA!  If you’re interested in booking a session, please call or text 916-767-9876, or email [email protected] to schedule your private Paint-Like-Bob session, and I’ll contact you once our move is complete.  Let’s paint some Happy Trees!   1-2 person classes are typical, but we should be able to book slightly larger groups once we’ve moved.  We frequently book 3-4 weeks in advance (or more), so be sure to contact us early to lock in your desired date(s).
