Real ones know that the real golden moment of each Joy of Painting episode is that grin of pure pleasure on Bob Ross’s face after he slaps his brush on the easel.

Seriously: arrest him. The governor should have state police arrest him and charge him with election fraud. Then immediately hold a press conference explaining you arrested someone for committing election fraud and will continue to do so. Just fucking arrest him already. You can actually do this

Part 1 of 4 of a large comic titled Make Art

A 3 panel comic with an additional caption

Panel 1: 
Years ago, I discovered The Illustrated Guide to a Ph. D. by Matt Might
Imagine a circle that contains all human knowledge:
An image of a circle

Panel 2:
It eloquently depicts how a person's Ph. D. contributes to the whole of human knowledge
And, that dent you've made is called a Ph. D.:
A zoomed in image of the same circle except now there is another shape inside the circle that is pushing out from the inside of the circle

Panel 3:
It's a quick and wonderful read!

The additional caption reads: It makes me wonder what the equivalent is for Art

Part 2 of 4 of a large comic titled Make Art
A single illustration comic composed of a large image overlayed with text. The image resembles a mandala created from numerous lines of different colors, reflected over multiple axes. The general appearance is like a starburst with dozens of points. It is predominantly red and orange with some green and blue in the center.

There is a tiny collection of pixels to the bottom right of the mandala. An arrow points to it which is labeled "banana for scale"

The text captions read:

It makes me wonder what the equivalent is for Art

And I picture this unimaginably immense and immaculately faceted multidimensional fractal

Enlarged, enhanced, and embellished by every artist who has ever existed

Unfathomably large and beautiful in the way that space is

At times, it overwhelms because in our short and finite lives, we could not experience more than a tiny fraction of it

And yet...

Because you, through inarticulable mechanisms
forged in the intricacies of your exceptionally unique life,
can imagine something that has never existed and make it real
