In this series of YouTube tutorials, Phil Clements, Mural Artist of 'Paint Your Paradise, will teach you how to begin your creative journey in painting. This is the beginning of a beautiful journey, so come along for the ride. Also, details of how Phil became "Aussie Bob" are shared below, so read on for this hilarious story.
In this episode, the scene develops further as the turtle, which Liz and Phil dived with on their last holiday in Cairns, Queensland is captured forever in this breathtaking mural detailing both above the water and below. Feel the waves crash, the warm water against your skin and the excitement as you let the realism engulf your senses. The huge sea turtle, now known as Juliette is undoubtedly the centre of attention and creates a beautiful central focus for the artwork, but don't let her distract you from the other subterranean underworld creatures living in this watery paradise.

Phil Clements didn’t decide to become “Aussie Bob”—the universe simply took one look at him, glanced at his paintbrush, and said, “Yeah mate, that’s the one." It all started overseas, where every time Phillip set up his easel, international onlookers would gather around with that spark of recognition—like they’d just spotted a rare, boomerang-wielding spirit animal. “Hey,” they’d say, eyes widening, “you paint just like the late, great Bob Ross!”
And to be fair… they weren’t wrong. Phillip had the gentle brushstrokes, the soothing voice, and the magical ability to make a blank canvas suddenly sprout happy little trees—only his trees occasionally featured a kangaroo lurking in the background or a cockatoo photobombing the sky. Word spread quickly. By day three he was no longer Phillip Clements; he was Aussie Bob, the Down-Under disciple of Bob Ross himself.
The fun, English Digital Nomads in Lombok on the scuba adventure asked for photos, artists asked for tips, and one confused backpacker even asked where he kept his pet koala (Phil, sadly, did not have one). And so, the legend of Aussie Bob began—one cheerful brushstroke, one happy little gum tree, and one international tourist at a time.
