Bob Ross - The Joys of Painting

[sterlingcomics]

Saw google's image today--Bob would've turned 70 today. Not comics but art related...anyone else enjoyed his art or his show? It's magic to see his paintings come to life.

 

[Speedy-D]

Cheesiest painter ever, but I kinda liked his show.

[Crows]

I remember watching his shows, been awhle now, but he sure was talented.

the trees also seemed to be missing something....pouches....yes lots and lots of pouches

[Maccai3]

he loved to throw a huge tree in at the end, he was great at what he did. It ran for like 24 seasons or something

[Mayor006]

That in itself is amazing. I used to watch it every once in a while on PBS and yes "happy trees" is about all I remember.

You're obviously not thinking of the rare, Pouched Larch.

 

And now, the Larch.

[font:Book Antiqua]Background it’s an important part in telling a story in comics

some artist did a lot of details like Byrne and Perez

some lazy one only draw a square or just nothing.

 

I know Liefield cannot draw feet, but also you can add cars, buildings, trees, animals, etc.

and sadly in this area like him, many...[/font]

very true, like a lost art

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

This is the guy I remember.

 

[ThoseBackPages]

i still believe Bob Ross was in an institution of some sort.

 

Never any windows in his room(s)

[kaylab]

 

My ma loved Bob, I remember foundly watching his show with her, good memories.

 

PBS did a neat little marketing thing, had someone remix Bob...

 

 

and if anyone is interested, they did same for Mr Rodgers

 

and Julia Child

[Unca Ben]

I still watch his shows today- reruns on PBS.

 

Very good at illustrating the wet on wet technique.

 

He seemed like a great guy as well.

I grew up with his show, and I love watching it. I've always wanted to learn painting and when I found Bob Ross's DVD at ebay, I fall in love and bought another one from artistsupplysource.com and decided this was the time. A lot of times, I just listen to Bob talking in the background while I do something else. He's just so soothing to listen to.

Yeah. He became the butt of a lot of jokes in recent times, but I have to admit, he was very talented. Amazing what he could spin up in such a short time and on-camera as well.
