I'm 16 years old, even though i wasn't alive when Bob was, he still is a big part of my life. When i'm going through a tough time or i'm having some form of panic attack or i'm over thinking a situation or just not happy , I always put an episode of his show on and he calms me down, he's one of the only things that can turn an awful day into a better one, his happy attitude and calming voice just gets to me and watching him paint is mesmerising to the point that the problems go away. You're not just watching an art teacher when you watch him, you're watching someone who feels like a close friend do something that they love to do. We need more people like Bob Ross in our lives, he just wanted the best for everyone and everything, he will not only forever be remembered but he will forever be missed.
Great age to live in that you can find his stuff everywhere. When I was your age I had to catch it live on PBS ... He helped me a lot too back then and now still does. It's great that people born after 2000 can appreciate this man.
you know there are so many great painting artist in this world, past, present and future. Mr Bob Ross is on top of that category. I love his work and his warn soft voice, but my number one artist is, The great creator, the one and only, the all mighty God. take a deep look at all of his great creations.He's the one and only. If I misspelled any of these words please forgive me. RIP Bob, GOD bless
This man deserves a real honest to god film adaptation to his life. He is one of the greateset inspirations of the modern era. More people need to experience his dedication, and sheer love of his craft. It shows that an honest love for your own hobbies can be a driving force; for anyone who just takes the time and risk to achieve their most precious dream, can infact reach it through not only hard work or dedication, but through the love of what you are creating. Bob Ross, you will always be the greatest inspiration in my life you didn't let anyone or thing tell you that your dreams cannot be achieved. I take my hat off for you sir you deserve more than you have gotten, even though you never wanted it.
He would never know that he still inspires one person like me in 2021 to start enjoying the painting, after almost forty years of thinking that I have no talent in art at all. It's been almost 2 months since I watched his show The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross on BBC by accident, and now the time of painting is one of the happiest time of my life.
I love the comments of any Bob Ross video, no one is being toxic or just hating. Every comment is happy and it just shows that bob leaves an impression on people
“Anyone can paint. All you need is an image in your heart and apply it to the canvas. It’s your world you decide where all these things live”. I feel Bob was not only teaching us painting he was teaching us life lessons as well. I don’t think anyone can measure up to his kindness and sincerity.
Thank you who made this channel. I will always thank you for posting all these videos - keep his memories alive. Just remember friends, always paint those little trees and beat the devil outta it.
MetalPcAngel I believe his family and production company helped make the channel, and they get the ad revenue. So even after death Bob supports his family.
I’m only 17, never even lived at the same time as bob, yet he has touched me in so many ways, and changed my perception of life and how I should treat individuals. He may not be here in person, but he is here in tape and always will be forever.
It’s so touching that so many people have been positively impacted by his life and teachings. We should all follow our dreams the way Bob would want for us.
Currently here in Los Angeles, The Joy of Painting is broadcast three times a day. I try to watch everyday if I can. I love it when he looks into the camera and says, "God bless my friend." at the end of each program. Also when he has a good chuckle, as he beats the brush on his easel. What a great man.
I beg to differ, for it is the best things in life, that last far beyond life. Bob Rosss' inspiration to millions continues to endure and inspire millions more.
What a great documentary about a great man. His legacy lives on with new generations watching his program through these videos. My little cousin, who is now 14, actually made a reference to Bob one day and I asked her where she heard that and she said, "This really cool guy on TH-cam who paints."
My wife starting painting via Boss Ross' videos and has now done over 50 beautiful paintings. It's enriched both her life and mine (as I enjoy watching her paint). I find it difficult to imagine who would give this presentation a thumbs down. It's the story of a man who shared his love of painting with the world. We need more people like Bob Ross.
"If I was normal, nobody would know me." -Bob Ross Thanks for not being normal. Your unique self is what has caused so much positivity in the world where it was needed. You'll forever be remembered.
This is the main thing that is missing in today's society. Individuality and uniqueness for some reason has disappeared. Majority of people nowadays want to be like everyone else and are embarrassed or ashamed of who they are.
Oh my... I know. I was sad too and yet how positive and calm he was. He truly was such a wonderful person. Thank God for bringing such an angel down to earth and glad to know he returned back home in heaven. ⛅️🙏🏻
This is so sad ffs this is bullshit i wan’t him back, this dude died of breathing the chimicals he spread with his brush, he died doing what he loved all his life, but fuck i want this man back i would give my soul to have him back...
I remember Bob Ross being on the TV as a kid. Now I’m 40 and love watching his videos! I can’t believe he was only 52 when he passed away.... he accomplished so much in his short life! He was such a blessing and his videos are still so amazing and relevant... I’m learning to paint from him right now!😆✨🙏🏼
To be fair Lost Sound , the documentary is a few years old now. It’s just the first time it’s been added to the channel. It could use less celebrities and more history.
Tia Belle . Yes mama I am lucky. He named it Sun set in the forest. It is a large painting about 5 times the size he paints on t.v. it is beautiful I keep it in my den. I had it appraised they put 5000 dollar value on it. I paid 100 dollars. Thank you for your reply.
Max Gilbert ..I got mine at a charity auction for 100 dollars. It was the last painting cautioned. Did I ever get lucky. I will not take for it. Thank you for telling me that. I will get it loomed at again. It a 32 by 58. It's amazing.
I will be 100% honest. I'm not a soft person, i NEVER cry from movies or books. But this had a big impact on me. Thank you to everyone before Bob on the show. And a special thanks to everyone who participated in making this documentary. And of course. Thank you Bob Ross for the inspiration, not in painting but in life. You taught me so many different life lessons that i could never repay you for. Rest in Peace Bob, thank you. Thank you. - Harris
Im 55 years aged, its 5:30am, I just watched this video and have tears pouring from my eyes. I watched Mr. Ross paint as I grew up. I never painted myself. I did not know until now how much I love this man. God Bless you sir.
As a kid in a bad home, Bob's show saved my life. As most viewers did, I watched just to listen to Bob. And now...35 years later...I loop it on youtube and sleep with it on. It's the best ASMR there is. I listen a lot to other things. I wanted to sleep with a human voice, but didn't know what or who. Then it was like, "duh"....so here I am now...sleeping with Bob Ross. (lol)
I can't sleep without background noise and I have a few movies I'll play in the background but that gets old. I started wondering about alternatives then it took me back to me as a 6 year old kid coming in from a long day at school, flipping on the TV, turning it to Bob just to have his voice relax me into the most amazing naps I haven't ever had since. It was a huge "duh" moment. Bob has been talking me to sleep for 25+years now and never gets old.
I'm crying and it's been 30 minutes now and I'm still crying and my mom and my sister watches him too but they never told me that he died and I found out 2days ago and they did not tell me because they new that this will happened and now I'm just reaching his videos crying
He made my childhood in the 70's such a wonderful time. Santa brought me his art kit every year and it's the reason in this tough time in my life I find solitude in my sketching and drawing. A great person and friend to all who witnessed his giving of art and himself.
I wish Bob were here to share my story with, what an inspiration. After suffering the unhappy triad of knee injuries this past March and now recovering from ACL surgery, I am now FINALLY painting along with Bob and giving my paintings to friends as a “thank you” for helping me through this tough time. I hope to be cycling, running and playing soccer in 2019… but until then it will be happy accidents and paintings for all my friends whether they want them or not :)
I never realized how many millions of people Bob Ross touched in his career and in his lifetime, and I am absolutely astounded after watching this documentary. From the time I was three years old in 2004, I watched Bob Ross every Saturday morning on PBS fully believing that he, one of the most impactful sources of my inspiration and creativity, was alive. Little did I know that he had in fact already passed before I was born. A few years later when my mother broke the news to me, I palpably remember being absolutely devastated and breaking down in tears because I fully intended to meet him some day at a painting class. I wanted to tell him in person how much he meant to me and fully express my gratitude. He was and still is one of my greatest sources of hope and inspiration in the world of creativity. I credit Bob Ross with showing me a way to genuinely appreciate even the simplest details that truly make life beautiful. Now, 15 years later at the age of 18, I have not adopted painting as a hobby, ironically enough, but I have developed a passion for drawing. I will forever treasure what Bob Ross has given me and hold it dear to my heart. This is just my two cents, but while I was watching this documentary, I shed tears multiple times like I'm sure many others have and will. I hope Bob Ross's legacy lives on for as long as possible. We all could use a little dose of Bob Ross's hope and purity. It's timeless.
Thanks for sharing your story about what Bob meant to you and what a positive force he was in your life. It's a telling tribute to a person who wanted to share his joy of painting with others by showing them how to do it, too. He was one of a kind.
Makes me cry so much realizing how much this man did for me growing up, especially in a not so happy family. I have to thank him for inspiring my love for art and didn’t even realize his impact until watching him again 30 years later. Much love to you Bob ❤️
Bob Ross was probably the first ASMR artist. Such a humble person he was. Thank you Mr.Ross for all your Inspiration and positivity. I hope you stay healthy in heaven
I have sever Anxiety. Upon browsing on suggestions, I found his channel. And since then, his videos became my Therapy. His calm voice and his words of wisdom. Huhu. Bob makes Impossible things possible.
I can relate. I was struggling with school because of severe anxiety and the crappiest one of all, bullies. I was fond of art back then and I still am to this day, so I just watched some of his videos to calm me down. I hope everything is going good with you! God bless.
Crying my eyes out.. What love I feel from him and his story. My youngest Brother had some heavy emotional problems. He told me that Bob's voice was what calmed him down. He could finally sleep at night while listening to Bob's calming tone as he painted. . Of course he and I love this Man. Love his paintings forever, he is our joy! What a joy to have him in our lives on video, still..tyvm Bob, we love you! Love Cheryl & my little brother also, Michael 💮🎨
I disagree. Steve was great at painting but he lacked Bob's charisma. Still, it's sad that Steve decided not to carry the torch and parted ways with Bob's Company.
RIP Bob. You were great. You were as much an entertainer as you were an artist, and when you smiled, the people watching you couldn’t help but to smile back. We need more people like you in this world more than ever.
Bob died the year I was born, yet he inspires me, I admire and genuinely love him and I watch his show when it's live on Twitch. He was a good man. GG Bob.
I just watched his documentary on netflix and it hurts to know that the company is taking all the money and his son gets nothing. They stole his name and his money. That' sad
Yes I agree. A friend introduced me to his paintings about a month ago. I was immediately mesmerised. So I did a search to find out he'd died so long ago and yes that he'd left his legacy to his son, only to see the others fought it in court by saying Bob was their employee so couldn't leave it to his son. Money hungry... And sad, after his loving nature, they hadn't learned from him at all 😢
@@fabrice1013 You know that his son isn't lying? Seriously, you know without a shadow of a doubt he's not lying and twisting things to make himself look like the victim as revenge for not being able to legally sue to get what he wants, so he's making them look bad publicly? You know this beyond all doubt because of an extremely slanted and biased "documentary"? Go read the court records and get back to me.
@@moderusprime bro it was the will of his father that he continues his legacy and for sure gets some of his revenue.. I dont say the kowalskies are as bad as the documentary states but the dude for sure doesent get as much out of it as bob wanted him to u know what i mean?
This is the happiest documentary I've ever watched. Not going to lie, I did tear up a bit but that was out of pure joy. I can't wait for more. Many thanks.
I remember watching him as a kid. Years later when I was in the Army, we would watch his shows when we were on guard duty, during our rest periods. Fast forward 20 years, I'm now a full time professional artist. Thank you for your gift Bob, not just as an artist, but as a truly wonderful human being .
My Mom watched every program. She learned to paint. She attempted one day to set up and paint along. She said she had paint everywhere 😂 She did turn out to be a fabulous painter and we all have her paintings that are now heirlooms. I have a Bob Ross t-shirt I wear regularly. He had been a part of my family for many years and to this day still is. My 27 year old son is a fan. He is greatly missed.
The thing that Bob Ross teaches you is that you don't always have to be perfect or talented but you need to stay positive and be happy about what you accomplish in the end
I had the same experience one guy spoke of in this film. I had never ever painted and ordered the Ross kit and canvas. The first time I had the knife up to the canvas, all ready to start, my hand was shaking and I had butterflys in my stomach. Amazing how nervous I was, and I laughed, thinking how funny that was. Took me a little bit to calm down. After that I was ok. The second time I really created a nice mountain. I was so shocked that I sat there staring at it for 10 mins, fascinated at how great it looked. Never thought I could do it, and succeeded! Thanks Bob Ross!
The way Bob Ross paints and talks about painting is very therapeutic. Its okay to make mistakes, its okay if the painting doesn't meet our expectations, what matters is being in the moment and enjoying what it is you are doing. That's one hell of a legacy.
I started to paint because of Bob Ross. And I started in 2016. He is still inspiring people and producing many more artists. I am so very grateful for him. I love you Bob Ross and I will watch your series...over and over...just because it is so good to see. Thank you for changing so many lives, including mine. RIP
I've enjoyed watching Bob for more than a half century. The single most important thing Bob brings us, is that art isn't just this or that, but what you believe it is. His method of painting allowed anyone, to express what they saw within there own imagination. This is art, not the formal process of the masters. Art is creation, no matter how you express it. This is the primary lesson Bob has taught to me over the years. Most importantly, that philosophy can be applied to almost ever aspect of our lives. Believe in what you do, love what you do, and with a little effort and determination, you can succeed.
I love that man dearly. I unfortunately never got to meet him, but I feel like I know him all the same. I’ve watched his shows all my life. I wish I could’ve met him so I could tell him how much he’s helped me. You see, I suffer from severe anxiety and depression. His shows, really his calming voice, his advice and inspiring outlook on life has helped me more than he’ll ever know. I love how gentle, loving and compassionate he was with animals. I hope he knew how loved he was and still is. He made me feel like I could paint.
I was 11 when Bob died and to this day I remember well when he was alive. I’ll never forget how my grandmother stood up in church and gave a heartfelt speech in his honor the week that he died.
I used to play the “Bob Ross” game when I came home from school in the 80s- 1. Watch the first 5 minutes of Bob Ross and get an idea of where he was headed. 2. Change the channel to Tom and Jerry or The Flintstones for 5 minutes. 3. Switch back to Bob. 4. “How did he do that in 5 minutes!!!” 5. Repeat
*It's so great to see so many people still singing the praises of Bob Ross after all these years, not to mention the large number of new fans he's garnered recently. I can remember watching The Joy of Painting as a pre-teen on PBS in the early 80's. Now both of my kids (Rhiannon 19 & Mannon 18) love him but it's my son who absolutely adores him. He'll sit & watch for hours on end. He even has a Bob Ross t-shirt he wears a lot! Bob Ross is a national icon. It goes w/out saying that he was a brilliant artist but he was an all around fantastic human being as well. I can just imagine Bob up there in all his afro glory w/ a big smile on his face sitting on a "happy little cloud". I hope he knows how much he is loved.* ♥️👨🎨🌳🍂 🏞️⛅🖌️ 🍃🌈🏔️🍁🌲🎨♥️
Best class I took in college was the Bob Ross class...before, I didn't know what to do with the brushes, I finger painted mixing oils and acrylics...then I discovered my love and skill with the brushes and have been changed ever since 😍
Late September 2020 here, and I firstly want to thank the Public Broadcasting stations for continuing to air The Joy of Painting. Although I have never set brush to canvas myself, I feel enriched after watching Bob turn a blank canvas into a work of art, all the while affirming his viewers' value and abilities in his soothing, joyous, and therapeutic demeanor. The man was - nay, still is - a treasure, and I wish that he was still available for me to thank him personally for sharing himself with us all for so many years. Rest in peace, my friend.
After all these years I never tire of watching Bob Ross & the Joy of Painting. Although I do not paint, it is often the best part of the day. RIP Mr Ross and thank you.
I started watching Bob Ross as a kid back in 1992 everyday when i got out of school, finding out a that he passed was a huge loss for me and everyone who enjoyed watching him. Bob has been and always will be my hero he taught me alot about painting and techniques I still use till this day. He is my hero may he Rest In Peace..
I love painting and Bob Ross was the reason I started.. he will always be a part of our lives. And to Steve Ross I give you my heartfelt happiness . Your dad will never be forgotten...blessings
I've been watching Bob Ross on PBS since about 1985. Always a sense of peace watching him even though I don't paint. Now I catch him on Netflix as well.
I had to laugh at my own experience in trying to paint like Bob. In all of his episodes, he totally forgot to tell me that my vcr would get oil paint all over that on/off button as i punched it constantly to rewind and repeat many instance. Also, in all his episodes he forgot to tell me how to clean up that pallet when done and most important, he forgot to tell me that oil paintings take about a million years to dry so that you do not smudge them. :-) I absolutely adored his show and watched it as often as I possibly could when it first came on. I truly wish that all elementary and junior high schools would have classes of such to allow all kids of any racial group to participate and learn, not just painting techniques of Bob Ross, but also the humility and open-hearted message that all people are important and the abilities and dreams of each are unlimited; not just in painting, but in all walks in life. Bless him for his contribution and bless those who helped and supported him during his short time on earth. I salute him as a great American who actually showed by example of what that means to be.
Thank you for sharing this without a paywall..... in this age where everyone turns to greed for a few pennies so i give this a big thumbs up because knowledge never should be sold for money.
Two documentaries and two sides of a story. I hope Steve receives compensation for his dad's great work. The popularity of Bob Ross in recent years I hope just hasn't been feeding into someone's corporate greed for money. He was a great man that changed many people's lives and should be used responsibly to continue doing so.

It could use less celebrities and more history.
I think the reason why they put in the celebrities was because there wasn't enough footage from Bob Ross since he was so private about his life.
I am a proud owner of one of his paintings that I found by accident at a charity auction. I would not take anything for it. He was an amazing guy.

Tia Belle . Yes mama I am lucky. He named it Sun set in the forest. It is a large painting about 5 times the size he paints on t.v. it is beautiful I keep it in my den. I had it appraised they put 5000 dollar value on it. I paid 100 dollars. Thank you for your reply.
Jimmy Key that's insane 😃 treasure it!!!! You are welcome 🙂 all the best 😊🌼x
$5k? That's grossly underratted. I've heard of his 18x24 show paintings go for $8-10k.
Max Gilbert ..I got mine at a charity auction for 100 dollars. It was the last painting cautioned. Did I ever get lucky. I will not take for it. Thank you for telling me that. I will get it loomed at again. It a 32 by 58. It's amazing.
I will be 100% honest. I'm not a soft person, i NEVER cry from movies or books. But this had a big impact on me. Thank you to everyone before Bob on the show. And a special thanks to everyone who participated in making this documentary. And of course. Thank you Bob Ross for the inspiration, not in painting but in life. You taught me so many different life lessons that i could never repay you for. Rest in Peace Bob, thank you. Thank you.

Im 55 years aged, its 5:30am, I just watched this video and have tears pouring from my eyes. I watched Mr. Ross paint as I grew up. I never painted myself. I did not know until now how much I love this man. God Bless you sir.
Try out painting! It's never too late. The goal isn't to be better than Bob, but to just enjoy creating something fun.
They had evidence on him that he killed
the fact this man died about 25 years ago and still is such a big part of people is just beautiful
@SAKINA I. J. he died 1995 dude
Wow he was a TH-camr before TH-camrs. One of the first generations who will now be known forever...

Nothing but admiration for Bob. He's the reason I do what I do today.
As a kid in a bad home, Bob's show saved my life. As most viewers did, I watched just to listen to Bob. And now...35 years later...I loop it on youtube and sleep with it on. It's the best ASMR there is. I listen a lot to other things. I wanted to sleep with a human voice, but didn't know what or who. Then it was like, "duh"....so here I am now...sleeping with Bob Ross. (lol)
sleeping with bob ross? u mean dead with bob ross or just dreaming?? i hope u r dreaming it not trying to meet bob ross in uuh (ignore it)
lmao ignore the person on top of me. bob's show makes a huge impact on our lives. :^)
Shut up about asmr. It's such bullshit. Don't lump Bob in with that weak shit.

Dude... They're just saying that they find his voice relaxing, no need to be rude in a place like this
I can't sleep without background noise and I have a few movies I'll play in the background but that gets old. I started wondering about alternatives then it took me back to me as a 6 year old kid coming in from a long day at school, flipping on the TV, turning it to Bob just to have his voice relax me into the most amazing naps I haven't ever had since. It was a huge "duh" moment. Bob has been talking me to sleep for 25+years now and never gets old.
Bob was a very special individual. So sad he left us at just 52 years young. Steve is very good as well.
Im crying for Bob right now.
And don't lie you did shed a tear too
You got me dude.... You got me :'c
I'm crying and it's been 30 minutes now and I'm still crying and my mom and my sister watches him too but they never told me that he died and I found out 2days ago and they did not tell me because they new that this will happened and now I'm just reaching his videos crying
I installed a happy little pond infront of my computer...
Me too. I can't stop myself even as I type this.

July 4, 2018 marks 23 years since he's been gone. I miss him and love him so much... R.I.P- you will be missed forever. ❤

He made my childhood in the 70's such a wonderful time. Santa brought me his art kit every year and it's the reason in this tough time in my life I find solitude in my sketching and drawing. A great person and friend to all who witnessed his giving of art and himself.
I wish Bob were here to share my story with, what an inspiration. After suffering the unhappy triad of knee injuries this past March and now recovering from ACL surgery, I am now FINALLY painting along with Bob and giving my paintings to friends as a “thank you” for helping me through this tough time. I hope to be cycling, running and playing soccer in 2019… but until then it will be happy accidents and paintings for all my friends whether they want them or not :)
I never realized how many millions of people Bob Ross touched in his career and in his lifetime, and I am absolutely astounded after watching this documentary. From the time I was three years old in 2004, I watched Bob Ross every Saturday morning on PBS fully believing that he, one of the most impactful sources of my inspiration and creativity, was alive. Little did I know that he had in fact already passed before I was born. A few years later when my mother broke the news to me, I palpably remember being absolutely devastated and breaking down in tears because I fully intended to meet him some day at a painting class. I wanted to tell him in person how much he meant to me and fully express my gratitude. He was and still is one of my greatest sources of hope and inspiration in the world of creativity. I credit Bob Ross with showing me a way to genuinely appreciate even the simplest details that truly make life beautiful. Now, 15 years later at the age of 18, I have not adopted painting as a hobby, ironically enough, but I have developed a passion for drawing. I will forever treasure what Bob Ross has given me and hold it dear to my heart. This is just my two cents, but while I was watching this documentary, I shed tears multiple times like I'm sure many others have and will. I hope Bob Ross's legacy lives on for as long as possible. We all could use a little dose of Bob Ross's hope and purity. It's timeless.
Thanks for sharing your story about what Bob meant to you and what a positive force he was in your life. It's a telling tribute to a person who wanted to share his joy of painting with others by showing them how to do it, too. He was one of a kind.
Thx for sharing your story, Sarah.
Here you go millenial. Things don't just appear out of nowhere..... Exception is Robert ross paintings.
😥😥😥
I was in the 9th grade when he died and didn't know until years later.
Well said, Sarah.
Makes me cry so much realizing how much this man did for me growing up, especially in a not so happy family. I have to thank him for inspiring my love for art and didn’t even realize his impact until watching him again 30 years later. Much love to you Bob ❤️
Bob Ross was probably the first ASMR artist. Such a humble person he was. Thank you Mr.Ross for all your Inspiration and positivity. I hope you stay healthy in heaven
Give it a rest with cringy ASMR nonsense.
Don't listen to this HammondOT guy. ASMR is awesome.
I have sever Anxiety. Upon browsing on suggestions, I found his channel. And since then, his videos became my Therapy. His calm voice and his words of wisdom. Huhu. Bob makes Impossible things possible.
I can relate. I was struggling with school because of severe anxiety and the crappiest one of all, bullies. I was fond of art back then and I still am to this day, so I just watched some of his videos to calm me down. I hope everything is going good with you! God bless.

Don't worry, I came so close to crying

I welled up a few times, but the tears were streaming when they told the story of the old woman who came in to get the painting she won
Crying my eyes out.. What love I feel from him and his story. My youngest Brother had some heavy emotional problems. He told me that Bob's voice was what calmed him down. He could finally sleep at night while listening to Bob's calming tone as he painted. . Of course he and I love this Man. Love his paintings forever, he is our joy! What a joy to have him in our lives on video, still..tyvm Bob, we love you! Love Cheryl & my little brother also, Michael 💮🎨
It's so good they didn't replace Bob. The man was irreplaceable.
I agree, but if they had, his son was also awesome
@@haydens.2755 yeah he was known for his mountains
I disagree. Steve was great at painting but he lacked Bob's charisma. Still, it's sad that Steve decided not to carry the torch and parted ways with Bob's Company.
RIP Bob. You were great. You were as much an entertainer as you were an artist, and when you smiled, the people watching you couldn’t help but to smile back. We need more people like you in this world more than ever.
“This is your world
You’re the creator
Find freedom on this canvas
Believe, that you can do it,
‘Cuz you can do it.
You can do it.”
― Bob Ross
That qoute right there inspired me to achieve my personal goals on my fresh canvas. Maybe a different canvas but it's still art.
That quote is actually from melodysheep’s Bob Ross remix. It’s great! You should look for his TH-cam channel.
Not enough teachers like Bob.
He rejected queen Oprah . alllll right ,allll right, allll right !
My son is 20 and discovered Bob Ross a few years ago on youtube. Absolutely loves to watch the guy work. :) What a gentle and talented soul.
Bob died the year I was born, yet he inspires me, I admire and genuinely love him and I watch his show when it's live on Twitch. He was a good man. GG Bob.

Tsetsi I been watching him for years Fancy meeting you here we have a lot in common.
Boring.
@hollow point bullet just stop, you thirsty
I’m watching this for a test in art, never watched a show and I actually teared up watching this without knowing anything ab him
I just watched his documentary on netflix and it hurts to know that the company is taking all the money and his son gets nothing. They stole his name and his money. That' sad
Yes I agree. A friend introduced me to his paintings about a month ago. I was immediately mesmerised. So I did a search to find out he'd died so long ago and yes that he'd left his legacy to his son, only to see the others fought it in court by saying Bob was their employee so couldn't leave it to his son. Money hungry... And sad, after his loving nature, they hadn't learned from him at all 😢
Too bad that's not what happened at all.
@@moderusprime you know more than his son?
@@fabrice1013 You know that his son isn't lying? Seriously, you know without a shadow of a doubt he's not lying and twisting things to make himself look like the victim as revenge for not being able to legally sue to get what he wants, so he's making them look bad publicly? You know this beyond all doubt because of an extremely slanted and biased "documentary"? Go read the court records and get back to me.
@@moderusprime bro it was the will of his father that he continues his legacy and for sure gets some of his revenue.. I dont say the kowalskies are as bad as the documentary states but the dude for sure doesent get as much out of it as bob wanted him to u know what i mean?
You know he is a legends when millenials admire him.

Im Gen Z and I admire him with my whole entire heart. I wish he could've lived a long happy life
Millenials and their need to enforce their uniqueness... Snowflakes xd
supremusyeetus We grew up with him! Why wouldn’t we admire him??
supremusyeetus 🤗😊
This is the happiest documentary I've ever watched. Not going to lie, I did tear up a bit but that was out of pure joy. I can't wait for more. Many thanks.
I remember watching him as a kid. Years later when I was in the Army, we would watch his shows when we were on guard duty, during our rest periods. Fast forward 20 years, I'm now a full time professional artist. Thank you for your gift Bob, not just as an artist, but as a truly wonderful human being .
My Mom watched every program. She learned to paint. She attempted one day to set up and paint along. She said she had paint everywhere 😂 She did turn out to be a fabulous painter and we all have her paintings that are now heirlooms. I have a Bob Ross t-shirt I wear regularly. He had been a part of my family for many years and to this day still is. My 27 year old son is a fan. He is greatly missed.
Even in death he inspires and is loved by thousands if not millions. May his memory never fade.
Yes.
My teenage kids love this show in 2019, blessings to Bob's family and friends from the Castleman family.
The thing that Bob Ross teaches you is that you don't always have to be perfect or talented but you need to stay positive and be happy about what you accomplish in the end

I had the same experience one guy spoke of in this film. I had never ever painted and ordered the Ross kit and canvas. The first time I had the knife up to the canvas, all ready to start, my hand was shaking and I had butterflys in my stomach. Amazing how nervous I was, and I laughed, thinking how funny that was. Took me a little bit to calm down. After that I was ok. The second time I really created a nice mountain. I was so shocked that I sat there staring at it for 10 mins, fascinated at how great it looked. Never thought I could do it, and succeeded! Thanks Bob Ross!
The way Bob Ross paints and talks about painting is very therapeutic. Its okay to make mistakes, its okay if the painting doesn't meet our expectations, what matters is being in the moment and enjoying what it is you are doing. That's one hell of a legacy.
This was the best show to watch when you just wanted to forget about the big bad world for a while...
Japjongetje it still is the best show to watch when you just really need to let go of the negativity 💜
Japjongetje yeah man, it still is and always will be I love this show man
Those who dislikes Mr. Ross will be tied to a tree they're eye lids sewn open with a carpet needle and dental floss and skinned alive. Thank you Bob.
I started to paint because of Bob Ross. And I started in 2016. He is still inspiring people and producing many more artists. I am so very grateful for him. I love you Bob Ross and I will watch your series...over and over...just because it is so good to see. Thank you for changing so many lives, including mine. RIP
I've enjoyed watching Bob for more than a half century. The single most important thing Bob brings us, is that art isn't just this or that, but what you believe it is. His method of painting allowed anyone, to express what they saw within there own imagination. This is art, not the formal process of the masters. Art is creation, no matter how you express it. This is the primary lesson Bob has taught to me over the years. Most importantly, that philosophy can be applied to almost ever aspect of our lives. Believe in what you do, love what you do, and with a little effort and determination, you can succeed.
I love that man dearly. I unfortunately never got to meet him, but I feel like I know him all the same. I’ve watched his shows all my life. I wish I could’ve met him so I could tell him how much he’s helped me. You see, I suffer from severe anxiety and depression. His shows, really his calming voice, his advice and inspiring outlook on life has helped me more than he’ll ever know. I love how gentle, loving and compassionate he was with animals. I hope he knew how loved he was and still is. He made me feel like I could paint.
I’ve been waiting my whole life for this

Totally Agree. ♡
He was a great man and he lived a life with purpose and meaning which brought everyone a lot of happiness. Rest in Peace.
What a guy. Never met him but I truly felt the pain of his passing. Rip Bob
I was 11 when Bob died and to this day I remember well when he was alive. I’ll never forget how my grandmother stood up in church and gave a heartfelt speech in his honor the week that he died.
This man is a National Treasure.
He didn't paint to show how good of a painter he was. He painted to show how good of a painter you could be.
You are exactly correct.
Yes, thanks for putting it perfectly into words!

I was just pursuing TH-cam in November 2017, and came across Bob Ross channel and started painting since. Thank you!
I watched him in high school years ago. And now, in 2021 I’m still watching, and still being inspired. Thank you Bob. God bless
Bob Ross beats the devil out of every bad day I have. God bless my friend.
As we try to pay it forward....
Man like Bob keeps delivering from heaven
Bob was a Mormon, I don’t think he’s anywhere near heaven sadly.
Yote Why not?
he was such an amazing artist, his greatest work was his personality
I used to play the “Bob Ross” game when I came home from school in the 80s-
1. Watch the first 5 minutes of Bob Ross and get an idea of where he was headed.
2. Change the channel to Tom and Jerry or The Flintstones for 5 minutes.
3. Switch back to Bob.
4. “How did he do that in 5 minutes!!!”
5. Repeat
*It's so great to see so many people still singing the praises of Bob Ross after all these years, not to mention the large number of new fans he's garnered recently. I can remember watching The Joy of Painting as a pre-teen on PBS in the early 80's. Now both of my kids (Rhiannon 19 & Mannon 18) love him but it's my son who absolutely adores him. He'll sit & watch for hours on end. He even has a Bob Ross t-shirt he wears a lot! Bob Ross is a national icon. It goes w/out saying that he was a brilliant artist but he was an all around fantastic human being as well. I can just imagine Bob up there in all his afro glory w/ a big smile on his face sitting on a "happy little cloud". I hope he knows how much he is loved.*

First stop TH-cam, next stop, Library of Congress. The whole Joy of Painting series should be preserved, it's a national treasure.
Best class I took in college was the Bob Ross class...before, I didn't know what to do with the brushes, I finger painted mixing oils and acrylics...then I discovered my love and skill with the brushes and have been changed ever since 😍
Late September 2020 here, and I firstly want to thank the Public Broadcasting stations for continuing to air The Joy of Painting.
Although I have never set brush to canvas myself, I feel enriched after watching Bob turn a blank canvas into a work of art, all the while affirming his viewers' value and abilities in his soothing, joyous, and therapeutic demeanor.
The man was - nay, still is - a treasure, and I wish that he was still available for me to thank him personally for sharing himself with us all for so many years. Rest in peace, my friend.
After all these years I never tire of watching Bob Ross & the Joy of Painting. Although I do not paint, it is often the best part of the day. RIP Mr Ross and thank you.
I started watching Bob Ross as a kid back in 1992 everyday when i got out of school, finding out a that he passed was a huge loss for me and everyone who enjoyed watching him. Bob has been and always will be my hero he taught me alot about painting and techniques I still use till this day. He is my hero may he Rest In Peace..
What a beautiful man with a beautiful spirit ❤️ 🎨
I love painting and Bob Ross was the reason I started.. he will always be a part of our lives. And to Steve Ross I give you my heartfelt happiness . Your dad will never be forgotten...blessings
I've been watching Bob Ross on PBS since about 1985. Always a sense of peace watching him even though I don't paint. Now I catch him on Netflix as well.
Bob Ross was such a huge impact on me as a child. One of the best human beings to ever live

One of the best painters I've ever seen and enjoyed. Lossing Bob Ross was a sad day he inspired so many. God bless
I had to laugh at my own experience in trying to paint like Bob. In all of his episodes, he totally forgot to tell me that my vcr would get oil paint all over that on/off button as i punched it constantly to rewind and repeat many instance. Also, in all his episodes he forgot to tell me how to clean up that pallet when done and most important, he forgot to tell me that oil paintings take about a million years to dry so that you do not smudge them. :-) I absolutely adored his show and watched it as often as I possibly could when it first came on. I truly wish that all elementary and junior high schools would have classes of such to allow all kids of any racial group to participate and learn, not just painting techniques of Bob Ross, but also the humility and open-hearted message that all people are important and the abilities and dreams of each are unlimited; not just in painting, but in all walks in life. Bless him for his contribution and bless those who helped and supported him during his short time on earth. I salute him as a great American who actually showed by example of what that means to be.
Well stated. We are PBS!

Two documentaries and two sides of a story. I hope Steve receives compensation for his dad's great work. The popularity of Bob Ross in recent years I hope just hasn't been feeding into someone's corporate greed for money. He was a great man that changed many people's lives and should be used responsibly to continue doing so.
