Someone had shared this video of my mom I had never seen before. I was ecstatic to see this and excited to show my kids. My mom died when my children were babies. As we were watching with such sentiment and love I was excited to scroll through the comments to share with my 8 year old the nice things people might have to say about their grandmothers video. About 30 seconds into the comments I had to ask him to leave the room and stop reading the comments. It actually felt like someone had punched me in the gut. I had no idea the world of the internet could be so cruel to someone they don't even know. Just a reminder to the people who say awful things that this is someone's mother and grandmother that we love and admire deeply. This absolutely broke my heart reading these yesterday. She was a single mom raising me all by herself who actually had a very good career as an artist. I loved and adored her.
I'm sorry for your loss. Your mother was a wonderful painter and I really enjoyed watching this episode. I understand people making jokes about her not being Bob and not being as calming and soothing, that's the nature of the internet. But I agree, some of these comments are over the top and unnecessary. I'm sorry you had to read these.
Barbara Andre-Van Lith so sorry for your loss and the cruel statements morons made about your beloved Mom. People can be so rancid when they know no one is coming for them, no accountability. Hopefully you and your children can fully enjoy this and any other videos of your Mom. Peace to you honey. ♡
If Bob respected her then everyone else should. He was willing to give someone else the spotlight. He saw something special in her and felt everyone else would enjoy her.
Barbara if you see this - your mother was a fantastic painter and this painting is one of the best in this show. I can't even begin to imagine the beautiful works you must have hanging around at home!
Thank you for your nice comment. Indeed I have a lovely collection. Funny story is that back in the 80's my mother and Bob Ross traveled around teaching the Alexander technique and they accumulated quite a few of these "teaching paintings". We sold Bob Ross and Diane Andre paintings at a garage sale for $25 a piece
Her clouds were excellent. I think the comments here are hilarious but her painting and talking really is just fine. Although I'll admit I was waiting for her to turn around and refill my cup of coffee.
@New York to UK I am 40 years old. I have a masters degree in Music Education and Composition. Did that bitch you call a mother have any children that lived?
call me crazy but she has done one of the best paintings in all of the series of the joy of painting right here, especially with the shadows. this is great.
I really like her, relaxing calming voice, I really enjoy her. I read she had a long time cancer battle, must've been a strong lady. God bless you Barbara & your family. Another good friend of Bob Ross is Joyce Ortner (Seascapes)
I've seen all her appearances on Bill's and Bob's show,and by far,she is my favorite guest..I love her paintings and her wonderful personality..she was extremely talented,and I can watch her over and over❤
I like her approach. Bob is wonderful and has a good sense of description for things but sometimes it helps a lot to get a different perspective on the same thing. I've been watching these videos for some time now and still not really clear about how much or how little pressure Bob puts on the canvas sometimes. He makes it all look so easy, even when he's applying force he doesn't seem like he's really putting in that much force. So seeing someone else do these things really does help me understand some things I wasn't clear on before.
How sad for her Daughter to come on here to see her Mom ( who has since passed away) to find so many unkind comments. All who thought Whisper "Adios" was funny... you're all a piece of work. Barbara Andre-Van Lith, your Mom was a wonderful Artist. I enjoyed it a lot! Honestly, those who rudely commented, obviously have no people skills, except flapping their ugly mouths.
People are "brave" on TH-cam comments because they are anonymous, most would sit quietly and not say a word in real life until they got back to their basements. I enjoyed the video and wish I had 1/10 of the talent of your mom. I am 53 and if I try to draw something I can put it on the refrigerator next to my 8 year old and you could not tell the difference :-)
David*, are you the third baseman for the New York Mets? I hope your recovery from your recent back surgery goes well. I would spend most of the down times watching TJOP with Bob Ross! :-) (*please read with a sense of humor)
Barbara Andre-Van Lith I’ve gone through more than half the comments on here and have only seen a few people say anything bad, mostly very good comments from what I’ve seen. People don’t like change anyway. If your mom had her own TH-cam channel at the time this video was filmed, she would have had thousands of followers! I can tell she had a very big personality and was a delight to be with! You should be proud of her!

Diane was so mesmerizing. I love how she sang a little. I can tell she feels her art. I hadn't realized how important pressure is before this video. Her students must have loved her.
@@rreagan007 There never were any, Barbara started all this to milk sympathy claiming it's her mother, I researched "Barbara" and couldn't find any trace of her or any links to this woman.
I love Bob and I think he’s an amazing painter but I like how this lady really explains in detail what she’s doing. Her tutorial was very easy to follow and I knew exactly what to do, why I was doing it and how to go about it! She really was a fantastic painter❤️
No, she's not Bob but she has her own style. Some people really use or "abuse" their tools - she may handle them rather harshly but the result looks great! A different style for sure but I don't get all the negativity from the people here. Do we all have to paint and work alike? What would Bob say to that?
Taimoor Khan can you piss off now? You repeating the same comments is getting annoying. If Bob didn’t paint this, how can you tell hers is better than Bobs?
I dont know people, I realize its not exactly ASMR but this ladys pretty damn good....and quick! i love the singing she does "da da da da!" Stop yer hating! and she said DUDE! Bob would never say dude! I love this lady!
Well , i think that apart from us thumbing them down and reporting where appropriate , the channel owner itself could be a bit more active in removing hateful posts
There is no scorn or venom in people's posts, you oversensitive immature brat, its just a joke, because Diane is almost a direct constrast to Bob in these videos, because of her louder firm voice and the fact that, at one point, she seemed like she was stabbing the canvas, there is nothing wrong with making jokes, nobody is offending her personally, and people like you need to grow up.
@@Macaulyn_97 seriously ?? Have you seen the comment that her daughter shared in this comment section ? Can you imagine how she must have felt, reading these awful things about her mom?
I love seeing the guest painters honestly. Sure none of em have the hypnotic extremely relaxing voice of bob, but each one rivaled bob in his painting, and even surpassed him in certain areas. Now of course bobs lessons were easier, but I've found some of the guests paintings a bit more stunning.
There is one I don’t like. I don’t remember his name now, but he was an older stubby man. His painting was fine, but when bob introduced him, he called the man one of the best painters of the time, sung his praises. Then, during the episode, he kept saying that if you want to paint, you must study the style of, and do it like, the old masters, and that you should never do things the “easy way”, and always make sure to pay attention to every single detail. Basically, Bob praised and lauded him, and he comes on BOB’S SHOW, and essentially starts saying that Bob’s style isn’t good enough, and that he’s doing it wrong, that the method Bob teaches is the wrong way to paint. I don’t like that guest, because he was an ass. Diane here, on the other hand, seems lovely
Zeena Abdelqader I think she’s a great painter too, but I think it’s how harsh she’s being with the brushes, you’d ruin your brushes pushing them that hard. You’d need new ones every couple paintings. People are noticing that.
Okay, but some great painters used to broke their brushes after a painting on purpose. So when you are an artist everything is possible and if your heart says " smash that brush, use your power" DO IT!
I've been a professional TV broadcaster for more than 30 years and I think she is fantastic! Sure, she started a little nervous, but she got control of it fast. And her da, da, da and ba, ba, ba was endearing and made her seem at ease.
She was a breath of fresh air. I really enjoyed how she didn't cover up the tree bases and also how she detailed the trunks. Still love Bobby of course.
Idk man. 70:1 like ratio, and the fact there are more comments complaining about "negative comments" than actual negative comments disproves what you're saying.
Yeah it’s a bit embarrassing to be honest……people can have their own opinions but 90% of people complaining about opinions they don’t like is a bit of a sad reflection on the majority. I personally wouldn’t say anything “negative” about this woman but my opinion of her on the show was 👎 not impressed. And I’m allowed to not be impressed lol
I have been watching bob Ross videos on TH-cam to get inspired and came across this delightful woman! I can't imagine how intimidating it would be to step in for Bob Ross! I think she did a wonderful job, both on the painting and on her presentation. Her grandchildren must be so proud.
I instantly loved this lady! She reminded me of some of my aunts on my dads side. She was a wonderful painter and I am glad Bob put her on this episode. She should have had her own show as well. Wonderful artist. Sad to hear she is gone from us now, but at least we can still enjoy her here forever!
Loved how this Lady was aggressive with the brush, and was showing it didn't honestly matter how aggressive you were with the brush, she had the most amazing painting ever! Her color schemes were off the chart's in this painting as well. She wasn't afraid to explore color, or ideas in her painting she just went with it! What an amazing Artist!
I had never seen this episode before. This was amazing. She is so talented. Bob always makes his paintings look easy. Well, she did as well. I loved her commentary all the way through. Her passion and knowledge was present and apparent. Simply lovely. I hope I find more guest appearances of her.
She's a good painter. She has a gruff demeanor about her because she's a big strapping woman who eats nails for breakfast, wrestles grizzlies, drives a rig and grew up learning how to beat all her brothers in arm wrestling but hey so what? She isn't a pickinick basket of daisies? Sure, she comes on like a bulldozer pushing a manure avalanche. Sure she doesn't paint happy clouds and trees but prefers hail storms, thunderclouds and surly, rough type vegetation that she makes with her angry gouges and sweeps but she can paint and isn't that enough really?
I'm glad she finally said that the knife never touches the canvas. I always wondered if that would be the most direct way to describe it, rather than just saying to do it really light, or with no pressure, or like a whisper. I like her and I appreciate hearing a different perspective on the method, with different things focused on and in different ways. It helps add more dimension to my understanding. I really appreciate those two shadows she put for the trees. It's odd to realize that Bob never really puts specific shadows in, but I've never noticed their absence. Seeing those shadows made me want to play around with them as well, and that's the whole point of the show
Wow, Diane was great! The clouds are amazing. I love the ease and comfort with which she paints. And the messy palette--I completely relate to that! It's a lovely contrast to Bob's technique but an excellent demonstration of how different techniques can produce amazing paintings!
Miss Andre, like Bob were taught to paint wet on wet by the great Bill Alexander. All three artist never fail to amaze me on how easily they produce a great painting.
This lady was so talented and a Master Painter before Bob. The ignorance of those who commented negatively was not the voice of artists, just disgruntled people who only see anger and darkness. These were not people of God who value hope, love, or friendship. Those awful comments were small spiteful people wanting to bring her down to where they dwell. I love watching your mom and grandma paint with Bill Alexander and Bob Ross as she has taught me far more than the guys. I love her strength and her ownership of her creativity. God bless you and enjoy your might day!!
Of course we love Bob Ross, but it's always refreshing having a guest come on to a show going on for years and looking it at their work. She's one of my favorites on here.
I'm always (even after all these years of watching this show) fascinated by the wealth of different techniques and perspectives. She created such an illusion with this, it actually looked photographic at many points.
Wow Yang! Don't get bent b_ _ _ _! Chill and take a nap! All is good... Freedom of speech is a b_ _ _ _! Can't drag folks out back to a firing squad just because they make you mad. So b_ _ _ _ take it easy. Peace.
Love Diane's 'wet-on-wet' techniques! She definitely had her method mastered to perfection! Great mountain painting! I'm so glad that Bob gave her the opportunity for some television recognition! She was really incredible! It's tragic to learn that the artistic world has lost this gifted lady! I have got to try this painting myself!
Meanwhile... somewhere in heaven Bob and Diane are looking down upon the world we live in today- with our technology and our cyber highways full of anonymous keyboard tough guys- shaking their heads in disbelief; yet calmly saying, "God bless you, our friends." That's the difference between their generation and ours! R.I.P.
THE PAINT THINNER THEY USED KILLED THEM. BOB ROSS & HER. WHY STEVE STOPPED PAINTING AFTER HIS DAD DIED AT 52 FROM CANCER. OIL PAINT .. THE FUMES ARE TOXIC AS IS THE PAINT THINNER. NO WONDER SO MANY DIED FROM CANCER ! SAD.
Diane Andre appeared a lot on Bill Alexander's "Magic of Oil Painting" show, and was one of Bill's many expert painters. She was a fantastic painter, and she will be missed. Great painting here.
I feel so grateful to enjoy the nostalgia of Bob Ross' beautiful TV series. This is the first time that I've watched Diane Andre but I still really enjoyed watching her paint. Bob Ross must of really respected her work a lot to allow her to take over for a show.
She's aggressive because she learned from Bill Alexander, as did bob. Note her "fire it in!" comment. She does a cameo in one of Bill's episodes as well. Her painting is great.
She had her moments when she was beating the devil out of the brushes directly on the canvas... But the result is beautiful and her singing along was nice and playful. I bed she was nervous as everyone would be who is not normally painting infront of camera. I enjoyed her. God bless her soul
Going through these videos in chronological order, i always feel like skipping the guest painter episodes. But Bob was the man, he chose them for a reason, and the guests grow on you halfway through the video. Her da da da's won me over.
thepantweaver their techniques are the same, their choices of what to draw is the same, but the way they use color and the techniques themselves are different. To me her understanding of color conveys to a more soothing work than Bob’s. But that’s it. Everything blends into each other rather than Bob using a more contrasting color like different shade of black in the trees.
Holy shit she's oddly mezmerising. LOVE LOVE LOVE her style, her quiet singing as she paints, and her somewhat aggressiveness which is so satisfying to me honestly. It's noticeable that she enjoys creating and painting. Love that. I heard that this amazing woman has since passed away, and some of the comments here are rather rude, which she doesn't deserve. May her talented soul rest in peace.
Listen, if Bob has artist friends, that's like extra painting lessons bruh. THAT MEANS MORE PAINTING TECHNIQUES THAT I NEVER SEEN BEFORE!! ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WERE MEAN, I OUTTA BEAT THE DEVIL OUT OF YA!! Bob's friends are my friends. PERIOD!
I think u idiots leaving negative comments thought this is an asmr video . It never was suppose to be , neither was bob . It’s a painting tutorial . With that said , I find this lady awesome and relaxing
Her painting style reminds me of Bill Alexander. I know he taught Bob, but this woman has the same painting style as Bill, almost stabbing the paint into the canvas.

Tavros Nitram Yeah, she's not a bitch. I think she held Bob for ransom until he let her on his show, but it was okay in the end.
Yeah It's fabulous
+EmpyreanLightASMR Girls gotta do what a girls gotta do! hahaha
She was so nervous when she started, then relaxed into it once she started painting.
She forgot about the camera, she was in her element 🙂
I think she and Bob had a problem. She was a bit shady towards him in the beginning
@@Goeisand Nerves can do interesting things to people.
She was a really good teacher. For how fast she painted, she really did a good job.

And
I like her singing with her painting. It shows how much FUN we can have with the Joy Of Painting.
Her voice may be harder, but I love those little singsong da, da da ta sounds she makes when she's painting. It's calming. ^^
She has a Minnesota twang to her accent
no....its dumb

This is all true! But it drove me absolutely nuts to see how messy her pallet got!😂 My inner OCD was having a fit every time I saw it!
I loved the way she textured stuff. :3
And using magic black for the shadows on the grass was brilliant!
To each her own.we must be kind even if we don't care for the dadadadadada.
This has to be one of the coolest and most beautiful paintings of the series. Love it.
I had never seen this episode before. This was amazing. She is so talented. Bob always makes his paintings look easy. Well, she did as well. I loved her commentary all the way through. Her passion and knowledge was present and apparent. Simply lovely. I hope I find more guest appearances of her.
She's a wonderful painter, knows exactly what she's doing. I can tell she loves what she does, seems to make her happy. Nice video....
oh my god, her voice is life
Wow! What a talented artist. And a beautiful painting.
So many people are being so rude about this woman :-( Along with Ben Stahl, she's one of the best guests that have been on The Joy of Painting
She's a good painter. She has a gruff demeanor about her because she's a big strapping woman who eats nails for breakfast, wrestles grizzlies, drives a rig and grew up learning how to beat all her brothers in arm wrestling but hey so what? She isn't a pickinick basket of daisies? Sure, she comes on like a bulldozer pushing a manure avalanche. Sure she doesn't paint happy clouds and trees but prefers hail storms, thunderclouds and surly, rough type vegetation that she makes with her angry gouges and sweeps but she can paint and isn't that enough really?
Mike Frett Easy there, champ. You seem on edge. Has life got you in a rut? Try some ASMR videos and relax.
Mike Frett You're just mad your ass cheeks don't shiver and thrill at the sound of her voice
yeah, I really like her painting and also the lady that paints the circular saw
Mike Frett, thats just kind of mean just in the other direction now.
bob ross was in the military because his voice made the enemy fall asleep
Me too it makes me fall asleep too it always has
ASMR
I don’t think he did actual combat since he was enlisted in the medic. Or at least what’s what I deduce from his career section on Wiki
Pretty sure they were wide awake from his shouting, he vowed to never shout again once he left the military.
😆😆😆😆😆 👍👍👍👍👍 😁😁😁😁😁
I'm in love with the way she paints her clouds!!!! Definitely wanting to try that technique next time I make clouds 😍
I'm glad she finally said that the knife never touches the canvas. I always wondered if that would be the most direct way to describe it, rather than just saying to do it really light, or with no pressure, or like a whisper. I like her and I appreciate hearing a different perspective on the method, with different things focused on and in different ways. It helps add more dimension to my understanding.
I really appreciate those two shadows she put for the trees. It's odd to realize that Bob never really puts specific shadows in, but I've never noticed their absence. Seeing those shadows made me want to play around with them as well, and that's the whole point of the show
I love the noises and singing this lady makes. I can't stop smiling! This is so what I do when I paint. 😊
I love this guest artist! Knows her stuff, calming voice (LOVING the 'duh duh duh duh') ...........I could watch her all day! :)
She was a great painter and teacher. Bless her soul. RIP
She is a fantastic painter. Anyone leaving negative comments is not a reflection of her. It is their fault. She did a great job.
the best part is that bob would be disgusted with all the comments people leave about this poor woman xD
never.
+i hate video gams these are all happy litle acci-comments :)
nah he would probably be pretty disgusted but u guys dont care xD
yes you are right :) she is in fact a very good painter and standing in the shadow of Bob's afro is a hell of a task ;)
Completely agree. 😒
Wow, Diane was great! The clouds are amazing. I love the ease and comfort with which she paints. And the messy palette--I completely relate to that! It's a lovely contrast to Bob's technique but an excellent demonstration of how different techniques can produce amazing paintings!
Miss Andre, like Bob were taught to paint wet on wet by the great Bill Alexander. All three artist never fail to amaze me on how easily they produce a great painting.
I really enjoy the guest painters Bob has on. This woman is a wonderful artist.
I love all the guests Bob Ross had, they're all just so amazing and talented in their own ways. This painting is so beautiful!
I was bit skeptical at first, but the time she did the sky and it turned out AMAZING I was already sold.
The moment she started GRINDING that fan brush into the canvas, I knew it was going to be a different episode! She is so wonderful.
This is probably my favorite episode I have watched thus far. She is having a blast and it looks awesome. I am feeling inspired
This lady was so talented and a Master Painter before Bob. The ignorance of those who commented negatively was not the voice of artists, just disgruntled people who only see anger and darkness. These were not people of God who value hope, love, or friendship. Those awful comments were small spiteful people wanting to bring her down to where they dwell. I love watching your mom and grandma paint with Bill Alexander and Bob Ross as she has taught me far more than the guys. I love her strength and her ownership of her creativity. God bless you and enjoy your might day!!
I wish there was more of her videos. She is a very talented artist. Thank you for uploading.
Of course we love Bob Ross, but it's always refreshing having a guest come on to a show going on for years and looking it at their work. She's one of my favorites on here.
It must be difficult to paint and talk at the same time. Kudos to Bob and Diane. Her clouds are beautiful.
I'm always (even after all these years of watching this show) fascinated by the wealth of different techniques and perspectives.
She created such an illusion with this, it actually looked photographic at many points.
Agreed. It’s excellent work.
Omg just because it's not Bob Ross doesn't mean people have to talk shit, if you don't want to see her go watch the hundreds of Bob Ross videos
+Tina Yang I personally liked her. She's as good an artist as he is!
DemonKnight 124 yeah, let's talk shit just because it isn't Bob, it's absolutely funny and you can go fuck yourself if you don't think so
Wow Yang! Don't get bent b_ _ _ _! Chill and take a nap! All is good... Freedom of speech is a b_ _ _ _! Can't drag folks out back to a firing squad just because they make you mad. So b_ _ _ _ take it easy. Peace.
@Taimoor Khan ok you are getting annoying as fuck. Chill you get to have an opinion. THEY have an opinion be quiet.
Some people are like seagulls, they eat shit & squawk. They probably would not know which end of the brush to use.
Love Diane's 'wet-on-wet' techniques! She definitely had her method mastered to perfection! Great mountain painting! I'm so glad that Bob gave her the opportunity for some television recognition! She was really incredible! It's tragic to learn that the artistic world has lost this gifted lady!
I have got to try this painting myself!
shes my favorite bob guest so far.
I really enjoy watching your mother paint. She was such an awesome painter and I'm sure a great teacher. I love her art!!!
Meanwhile... somewhere in heaven Bob and Diane are looking down upon the world we live in today- with our technology and our cyber highways full of anonymous keyboard tough guys- shaking their heads in disbelief; yet calmly saying, "God bless you, our friends." That's the difference between their generation and ours! R.I.P.
THE PAINT THINNER THEY USED KILLED THEM. BOB ROSS & HER. WHY STEVE STOPPED PAINTING AFTER HIS DAD DIED AT 52 FROM CANCER. OIL PAINT .. THE FUMES ARE TOXIC AS IS THE PAINT THINNER. NO WONDER SO MANY DIED FROM CANCER ! SAD.
No one gets to watch someone from heaven.. ones you leave this world. There's a next life waiting you.. and 3rd one
I LOVE HOW SHE BROUGHT FLORAL COLORS INTO THIS LANDSCAPE. Man she is great. AWESOME.
Diane Andre appeared a lot on Bill Alexander's "Magic of Oil Painting" show, and was one of Bill's many expert painters. She was a fantastic painter, and she will be missed. Great painting here.
I love her singing and growling. Very sweet and warm.
Love this! She painted a place where I want to be.
I feel so grateful to enjoy the nostalgia of Bob Ross' beautiful TV series. This is the first time that I've watched Diane Andre but I still really enjoyed watching her paint. Bob Ross must of really respected her work a lot to allow her to take over for a show.
She's aggressive because she learned from Bill Alexander, as did bob. Note her "fire it in!" comment. She does a cameo in one of Bill's episodes as well. Her painting is great.
BOB WAS NOT CLOSE WITH HIM .. BILL FOR ALONG TIME BEFORE HE DIED. THE RIFT WAS REAL !
She had her moments when she was beating the devil out of the brushes directly on the canvas... But the result is beautiful and her singing along was nice and playful. I bed she was nervous as everyone would be who is not normally painting infront of camera. I enjoyed her. God bless her soul
Her colour mixings are really amazing. And she has very detailed knowledge of tones in painting.
She is an incredible and patient teacher as well as being very talented. I believe I’ve seen her with Bill Alexander as well. Wonderful.
"I will be back in a minute"
Bob why are you lying 😢
he's so calm and relaxed his minute is 25 minutes... and they weren't even happy little minutes lol
+nini I know! :( :(
+nini Tell you the truth i hate this video ALOT
Alan McPhearson tell me what have you done in your miserable life??
nini 😂
This woman is absoulty stunning! So talented and very inspiring very lucky to have her in the show... Thank you so much!
Going through these videos in chronological order, i always feel like skipping the guest painter episodes.
But Bob was the man, he chose them for a reason, and the guests grow on you halfway through the video. Her da da da's won me over.
I watch them to help me fall asleep, so the guest episodes don't work as well in that respect, but I still enjoy them!
She was such a great artist. Many salutations for a wonderful talent gone too soon. We miss you....
Wow! Her style is so different. From the way she mixes paint to the way she uses the knife and especially the pressure! Really great painting though.
I loved the pic she painted. She made it look so easy. Sorry to hear of her passing. Lots of hugs sent your way.
She ain't Bob but she paints amazing as well you gotta admit
Taimoor Khan I agree. This painting is better than Bob’s.
Taimoor Khan nope
thepantweaver Bib didn’t do a painting like this though, and it’s completely ridiculous to compare 2 different paintings.
thepantweaver their techniques are the same, their choices of what to draw is the same, but the way they use color and the techniques themselves are different.
To me her understanding of color conveys to a more soothing work than Bob’s. But that’s it. Everything blends into each other rather than Bob using a more contrasting color like different shade of black in the trees.
RIP to Diane. She was one of my favorite painters that appeared on the show.
Both Diane and bob are good so stop with the mean comments
She is amazingly talented. Look how fast she is. She’s fantastic.
This is one of my favorite paintings in the entire run!
I absolutely love her choice of colors!!!! I may have to try this one! She did wonderful!
Her paint mixing technique is pretty rad.
Oh I am loving this woman. She’s awesome. ❤
Holy shit she's oddly mezmerising. LOVE LOVE LOVE her style, her quiet singing as she paints, and her somewhat aggressiveness which is so satisfying to me honestly. It's noticeable that she enjoys creating and painting. Love that. I heard that this amazing woman has since passed away, and some of the comments here are rather rude, which she doesn't deserve. May her talented soul rest in peace.
Asmr was off the charts on this video. Her humming and "da-da-da" matched anything on TH-cam.
this is my favorite painting so far!!
Listen, if Bob has artist friends, that's like extra painting lessons bruh. THAT MEANS MORE PAINTING TECHNIQUES THAT I NEVER SEEN BEFORE!! ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WERE MEAN, I OUTTA BEAT THE DEVIL OUT OF YA!! Bob's friends are my friends. PERIOD!
I think u idiots leaving negative comments thought this is an asmr video . It never was suppose to be , neither was bob . It’s a painting tutorial . With that said , I find this lady awesome and relaxing
That painting looks beautiful! I feel like I can walk right into it. Lovely scenery; Absolute bliss.
It was a joy watching Diane Andre paint.
Her painting style reminds me of Bill Alexander. I know he taught Bob, but this woman has the same painting style as Bill, almost stabbing the paint into the canvas.
FIRE IN
If I'm not mistaken, she too was taught by Bill Alexander.. Bill was truly the master..
Bill did have her as a guest on his show as well!
Loved her voice! And was that paining?!?!? Simply amazing!
