Bob was a great soul - gone too soon - Always loved when he ended his show with "God Bless"
From Caravaggio to Bob Ross in one stroke... I love Perspective.
Yes, it was his voice and kindness that kept us watching. Fred Rogers had the same quality - they were tranquil. Today's high energy programs of fast clips and noise are 180 degrees different.
I’ve been an artist most of my life I’m now 68 and I always watch bob ross
I remember my art teacher having him on in the background of class. I also watched him at home after school. My partner and I still watch him sometimes.
Wow, where did you go to school? Your teacher should be fired.
Ya just got to admire and love what he projected.
*Bob Ross soars with the Stars.* 🌟
What a true example of Harmony, Higher Mind, Positive Energies ...
*Joy is what we are here to expierence, it is found in our Passions, in what we love, and "in Love".*
He made the Public think about what they can do.
Keep the desire in your thoughts, not the undesired. 🔑
I don't admire it at all. He made kitsch, not art.
I so glad I took the time to view and be reminded .. I am more now then ever determine to rewind and paint along not merely watch ...its never to late!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
This is the most touching video on this channel. Thank you for this presentation ❤️
I remember watching Bill Alexander on my local PBS station when I was in my 20s. Later, watching Bob Ross became a great pleasure, even though I never picked up a brush.
About a year ago, the YT channel TRYBALS showed a selection of villagers from Sindh, Pakistan one of Bob's videos, which they enjoyed very much. Afterwards, two of the villagers tried their hand at following Bob's instructions, and they were able to create lovely paintings that were similar to Bob's, yet distinctly their own.
in the past few years, I've seen several instances of couples going to costume parties as Bob and one of his paintings. What a lovely tribute to a lovely man!
My son, who is now 40, loves watching Bob's shows. There are times when he'll spend an afternoon binge-watching 'The Joy of Painting'. That, I think, speaks volumes to Bob's legacy.
Concerning the abstract painting teachers he once said; they tell what is a tree but they don't show to paint it.
Wearing my Bob Ross shirt today and this pops up!
And has now over 5 M subs on youtube❤️
He was definitely a damn good artist, his passion, his love for art. He was so great that a person can feel enough good to make a good painting. Sad his identity and magic was stolen by two miserable people.
What are you talking about?
Who stole his identity and magic?
How does someone even do that?
He is not an artist. He made kitsch.
I guess bob painted each 3 times. One for practice, on during the filming ( what we see) and one even detailed done slower afterwards to show everyone.
us and said wow this guy is wonderful
would you agree to do a television series and we said would we ever
they came up with the idea for a show and called it the joy of painting with bob ross
hi i'm bob ross and for the next 13 weeks i'll be your host as we experience
the joy of painting at the beginning of the show bob would start with a blank canvas
and finish less than a half hour later with a completed oil painting bob told
Painting Dad ♥
Thanks everyone for boycotting all Bob Ross products, logos, and his likeness. Hitting the Kowalski's in their wallet and it's starting to show! That family of thieves continues to bath in the blood money of Bob Ross.
His partner robbed him and stole his identity.
Bob got his lymphoma due to his exposure to solvents.
He was a comp!eternal hack. He was one step above a paint-by- number artist. He does not warrant the name "artist."
Ross stole the idea of his show from Bill Alexander, who was on PBS before Ross.
Only pornography has had a more harmful and long lasting effect on fine art than Bob Ross. Although he is a close second.
I dunno, I think Ross’s target audience was mainly people who wouldn’t otherwise have picked up a paintbrush unless it was to whitewash a wall. It’s more of an artisan community which values master craftsmanship. The fine art community is and was a smaller and more academically focused group, and seemed to carry on about the same before Bob as after.
@@jojojo8835 - And maybe it would have been better for the appreciation of art (as opposed the appreciation to artisanship) had he never become popular. Now he only confuses people as to what is art. Believe me. I reach post-secondary studio and art history education. Everyone knows about Bob Ross but many don't know about Caravaggio.
@@michaelpoindexter8886 I don’t doubt your experience in teaching, it must be disheartening for you. But I learned about Caravaggio as a kid, decades before I’d heard of Bob Ross, because my parents were upper middle class graduates (and snobs) and took me to museums and galleries instead of football and funfairs. Perhaps your students are form a more working class background, and maybe wouldn’t have considered signing up for your art classes if Ross hadn’t given them the idea art is both fun and for everyone. I didn’t need a Bob Ross to encourage me, there were all kinds of art materials and books already on the shelf at home. But the more I studied art history, the more I understood that their judgements about what was or wasn’t ‘art’ were born mostly of a cultural bias rather than intrinsic value. The same culture which called traditional African art ‘primitive’ but traditional European art ‘folk’. Is Ross really more formulaic than Canaletto? More prescriptive than the Picturesque aesthetic? Less of an outsider than Basquiet? I’m not fit to judge.
@@jojojo8835 - Well i wasn't talking about you then. I'm talking about the majority of students I have, both in major and elective classes, who have all heard of Ross but nor Caravaggio. Read down the comments and you'll see where there was a professors who played Ross videos in class. My students are from all backgrounds. Art is much more than fun and inclusive. What constitutes art in not "cultural bias". It is the study and application of principals and practices that have been explored and refined through the ages. It is true in any civilization. The categorizations of primitive and folk arts are no bias determined but rather based on cultural progress having more to do with the scientific discovery than the reapplication of modern terms to ancient people. People not yet having fire or the wheel are primitive. That's just fact. Ross was more formulaic, prescriptive, and quite a bit more "outsider" than Basquiat. No outsider holds the record for the largest amount aid for a painting at Sothebys. I put Ross and Basquiat in the same category of charlatans made far more famous than their artwork deserved.
@@michaelpoindexter8886 once upon a time Caravaggio was considered crude and base by the academic art establishment.
i can't agree with Bob Ross on the talent thing unfortunately. Talent is not a matter of pursuing an interest or putting a lot of work into something. If you don't have a natural affinity for something, even if you work your rear off trying to perfect it, you're only gonna get frustrated and achieve nothing. I did that a lot when I was trying to get even hardly acceptable notes in physics or maths which I disliked and didn't like at all but I needed it to graduate from grade and high school, or later when I played at archery, which I was interested in and enjoyed profoundly and I still sucked at it hugely no matter how long I practiced it with the assistance of people who knew well how to do it. Meanwhile, other things - i.e. literature, geography, history classes at school and, for example, knitting and crocheting in my free time were absorbed and mastered by me with no effort whatsoever, bringing the top marks and great results at the click of my fingers.
Note taking isn't a talent, it's just something you can do to learn more about something.
By the way, if you do something just for competitions sake and not for fun, why do it then
