A Creative Celebration

Liev Schreiber surprised followers this week by sharing snapshots from a unique anniversary celebration. Rather than opting for dinner or a weekend getaway, the acclaimed actor traded the red carpet for easels and paint palettes—embracing a Bob Ross–style painting class led by instructor Wes Day. “Thank you Wes @thewesdayshow for a thoroughly inspiring and creatively humbling afternoon,” Schreiber wrote in the Instagram caption. The post invites fans to “swipe right for serious artist faces,” showcasing Schreiber and his partner fully immersed in the artistic process.

Meet Wes Day: From Blue Man To Bob Ross

Wes Day is no stranger to performance. A former artist with Blue Man Group, he’s taken his blend of theatrical flair and visual artistry into public workshops that pay homage to the late painter Bob Ross’s technique. Day’s mission: bring easygoing confidence and step-by-step guidance to participants, regardless of skill level. Schreiber’s glowing review—calling the session “not to be missed”—underscores how Day’s classes are bridging the gap between entertainment and fine art.

Snapshots From The Studio

The photo series reveals Schreiber wielding brushes with surprising focus, guiding each stroke toward tranquil landscapes and fluffy “happy trees.” One image captures the actor gazing at his canvas, palette in hand, while a second shows him laughing alongside Day. A final shot displays both Schreiber’s and his partner’s finished landscapes—proof that even Hollywood’s hard-edges can melt under the magic of a paintbrush.

Balancing Art And Activism

This creative date comes amid a busy period for Schreiber. Known for his leading turn in Ray Donovan and roles in films like X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Spotlight, he’s also become a vocal activist. Earlier this month, he co-founded BlueCheck Ukraine, raising awareness and funds for Ukraine’s medical aid efforts. And fans are keenly awaiting his documentary “Meeting Zelenskyy,” which offers an intimate look at Ukraine’s president during the country’s fight for sovereignty. Yet for all his professional and philanthropic endeavors, Schreiber made room for this intimate, hands-on experience—an invitation for fans to see a softer side of the star.

By blending classic Bob Ross methods, a bit of performance artistry, and his own laid-back charm, Schreiber’s anniversary outing strikes a perfect balance between creativity and connection. It’s a reminder that sometimes the best way to celebrate love is with color, canvas, and a dash of inspiration.
