    "90% of his paintings contained at least one tree. If it did, there was a 93% chance he would paint another... because trees need friends". That is the nicest statistic I've ever heard.

    “He copied me and he thinks he can do it better”
    That’s exactly what he is supposed to do. And if he can do it better, then he improved the technique which he can teach to other people, who then can improve the technique again.

      So some people here seem to think that in order to teach what you’ve learned you need to expand on it. So my elementary school teacher who taught me the alphabet she learned when she was young, was actually supposed to add a few letters of her own onto it then?? You guys are adding your own personal thoughts of what a student should or shouldn’t do. Ultimately a student does whatever the hell they want. The teacher on the other hand, once they have passed on what they learned must accept that the student can do whatever they want to do with that skill. Build on it, or teach it how they learned it. It’s completely up to them and all your moaning about how that’s not fair says volumes about how warped your sense of fair is. Comment by: MattyYoungcloudsArt

      Idontknow WhoIam . There was a lot more to it than that . His teacher thought that he was mimicking him too closely . Happy little trees and clouds etc plus a host of other Bob Ross sayings all originally came from his teacher . I suppose his teacher Bill Alexander thought it was one thing for his pupil to copy his paintings so closely but to copy his exact style of teaching and to copy his expressions and sayings , the way he talked even was taking it too far and maybe a bit disrespectful . Then there was the fact that Bob slapped his name all over products that Bill had invented and brought into current use so he could make money out of someone else’s idea . I think that was obviously a cause of friction between them . I love them both however. They were both amazing . It’s a shame that they fell out and didn’t resolve their differences . I’m sure that there was two sides to their particular falling out . They both seemed such genuine and lovely people . Hopefully they have made up now .

Thats what you sound like he showed people how to paint in a helpful manner for free. He is never spiteful or angry and teaches people to forgive and forget. YET YOU INSULT HIS GREAT IMAGE BY SAYING I DONT LIKE HIS VOICE SOMETHING OUT OF HIS CONTROL. If no for my respect of his memory I would curse you out but bob Ross wouldn’t want that.

      Rizkirafu I agree, imo Alexander is just butthurt and salty af maybe because Ross got his TV gig after him and was able to achieve many of the things he wasn't able to achieve himself. So many of us got to know Ross through his program and millions of others would recognize him because of his afro but this is the first time I learned about Alexander.

    As a kid, I used to pester my mom to put on "the big hair man" and then took to calling him "Uncle Bob" by the time I was 6. Comic books, and Bob Ross are why I started art, and I feel privileged to have grown up when he was around. He was a treasure, and is missed.

After watching him at work he convinced me that I could do what he was doing, so I had a go. 30 years later I am still painting and it has become something that has been one of the mainstays of my life and I shall be ever grateful to Bob for teaching me what really is, THE JOY OF PAINTING.

He was kind, easy to work with, had a blast creating the wacky show openings and was an all around treat to have in our TV station for a week at a time! He was also just a bit ornery...Bob liked jokes and could tell them very well - most often, during lunch! We were so saddened by his death but the crew here knew he was very ill so it wasn't a complete shock. Still, it just tore us all up. Bob would be 75 if he were still with us and what a treat that would be! I hope he can see how incredibly popular he has become wherever he happens to be. Love ya' Bob!

      The Lorax that’s not true. In this case it is, but its not for MPW and Gordon. They have no feud it’s all made up. People who worked for ramsay for years asked him and he said that it’s all really only bs in the internet. There has been problems in the past but MPW is a great cook and he was never jealous of gordon. Gordon literally admitted that he tried to break mpw‘s record for the youngest cook with 3 michelin stars but he couldnt. They are both great cooks. No jealousy here, it’s all good between them.

    On the day Bob Ross died... a light went out in the world. No one can know another person's heart, yet are we not at least partially defined by our words and actions. In this regard, Ross more than succeeded... by combining artistic instruction with commentary designed to uplift the spirit and make sense of an oftentimes senseless world. In life, the legacy we live IS the legacy we leave. And with his passing, a light went out in the world.

    • @metablue4454
      @metablue4454 6 лет назад +5

      I didn't know that. And, yes, it's easy (unfortunately natural) to be suspicious. It's part of human nature. Anyway, there is not a person who ever lived who doesn't have a skeleton in their closet... and no one walks on water. Where I was coming from was another place. It has to do with the impact of one human (regardless how imperfect) on another human. For example, about 20 years ago, I watched a televised interview featuring some high-rolling dude in the art world. As with some others, he was essentially critical of the work Ross did, explaining that it was not real painting, or something. But he said something else, which illustrates where I was coming from in my previous post. He said that, for all his shortcomings, Bob Ross, more than any other factor, was responsible for an increase in the number of college students going after art majors. Ross may have been a saint or a sinner (like most of us), yet he also inspired a large number of people to take a chance and explore their own creative potential. And that's the point. And that's one of the reasons why so many people appreciated him. For me, I never picked up a paint brush, yet I appreciated someone willing to defy the status quo (including in the art world) and suggest that anyone, everyone, could embark on a personal journey that could bring a little more creativity and satisfaction into their life. True home-spun wisdom is easy to criticize, but difficult to outpace.

Its not that hes a bad person, its that his family denys to say anything at all about him other than what everyone saw him be

I remember when I had heard of his passing. I cried for hours. Nothing felt real. My hero had left our world and it hurt. It really really hurt. It was a horrible pain that I will never truly recover from but I believe he is happy and at rest in the other side. I miss him. I never met him but I think that’s okay because I felt like his friend just listening and watching him on screen. He was truly a blessing.

      @SoulConstruct 6 лет назад +6

      That's the sad reality for a lot of artists who mainly make their money from commissions. It isn't the only reality though, as many artists are employed to fulfill roles other then that, such as design work. They are one of the most important parts of game and movie production, which heavily rely on visual communications. Albeit, these roles might not pay nearly as well as say, a commissioned work from royalty, but then again, those particular job offers are so slim these days that it is almost a moot point. It is mainly a sign of the times, when cameras were able to replace artists whose traditional role was to capture people within pictures, but luckily design work is still there to pay the bills at least.

      Im 63. When I was in High School we used the term "turn me on" the meaning is the person "introduced me to." In a sentence I could say, "Joe turned me onto Sensimilla." (Sensimillia was the first real 'potent' weed) by the way I dont smoke. If I said a girl "turns me on" it has a different meaning. If I said that in a sentence it would be "Dang, that girl is fine..she really 'turns me on'" Although that does not HAVE to mean sexually. It can mean 'I like her style,' 'I like her attitude,' 'I like her intellectualism' etc. If Paul McCartney says it in a song, it has another meaning. IE; "A Day in the Life" by John Lennon. Arguably the best song off Sgt. Peppers. By the way, Sgt. Peppers is considered the greatest rock album of all time. If that is the case (and it is) then "A day in the LIfe" written by Lennon could be said to be the "greatest rock song of all time." Because it is considered to be the best song of that album. Got it? Although Im fairly sure that title does belong to Led Zeppelin with "Stairway to heaven." Which Im listening to right now :)
