his show wasn't about painting, 99.99% of everyone who watched had no intention to paint...it was his personality and ability to induce relaxation and calmness and help take away anxiety and stress...what he wss doing wasn't about painting..oh to a few people sure but not the vast majority, i know a lot of people who watched his show including me and none of them paint..tons of people know him and his show and don't paint at all. so if you think his show is about paintring..thats secondary to what he was doing.
Thanks to Bob I started to paint years ago. His death at such a young age was a big loss for so many. Thanks Nic, for bringing back some of the joy he always brought us
@phil pecoraro, yes he passed a few years younger than my own father. I remember watching Bob on Saturday's as a child. As a kid I loved to play & I had responsibilities too but I always wanted to set aside that time to get comfy on the couch and just watch Bob paint & speak in such a soothing tone whilst sometimes showing video of "little critters" he'd take care of... Back then I had no idea this man so gentle and soft-spoken had even been in the military. I wonder if perhaps he's been painting masterpieces in Heaven all of these years or perhaps just enjoying the "masterpiece" of Heaven itself. His legacy certainly lives on here.
All Bob ever wanted was to encourage people to paint. I feel like Nicholas has honored his memory so wonderfully. My first TV memories as a child were always Bob Ross. Now 40+ years later I continue to watch and see his legacy lives on. Can’t wait to see more. We love and miss you Bob. ❤
I've been watching Bob Ross for decades, and you are the FIRST artist after Bob who really seems to have captured his spirit. Please keep painting and posting your works. Thank you.
I always loved watching Bob Ross. He was so fantastic. I've really come to love Nic Hankins painting. He truly carries on Bob's tradition yet incorporates some of his own style. Thanks Nic. Please keep showing more of Nic's videos. ❤
Here I am, stuck at home with a miserable cold, and I find this! Thanks, Nic, for brightening my day and letting me forget for an hour how rotten I feel! Please keep them coming!
Whenever I’m so upset that I cry hard and I feel like it’s the end of my world I play a video of his to release my stress and anxiety. Thanks for continuing his videos that make us feel better.
That was Awesome! I just watched you paint for an hour and was not distracted by anything else in existence. And at the you stop to say happy painting and you have created another world! Thank you for painting and sharing the journey.
This is so nice that so many people love Bob Ross - including me. Its genuine down to earth good peeps that are such a treasure on this Beautiful Precious Earth.
So good to see new content that is different and new but still following a similar theme to the original. This is not something that grows old. Thanks Nic and keep them coming.
Nic, I love it when you do tutorials and really like the extra amount of time in your videos. I realize that Bob only had 30 minutes but the added time in your videos helps me a lot with the details. Please do more tutorials! I’ve watched all of Bob’s videos and learned a lot but I can learn even more from seeing the techniques and perspectives from other artists, like you. Thank you for your videos and for giving us a place to see all of Bob’s. I started painting last year and it’s because of your channel. I’ve found so much joy and peace from painting. You’re truly keeping the dream alive!
My grandma was a certified bob ross instructor, she used to have us painting amazing paintings when we where only 7 or 8 years old. I still have some of them
I really like mountains painted with a variety of brown colors instead of mostly snow. Thanks for doing the mountains this way! I like your tree branches too. That's always something I need to work on doing better and this will be a good pattern for me to practice with especially since you went slow enough that I can see what you're doing.
I’ve always wondered… in the past, did Nic, as a little boy, see the show on TV and told his parents, “This is my future. I want to be like my hero Bob Ross!” If that’s true, Nic’s dream has come true. ❤❤❤
I hope you will do more paintings on utube Nic. You are extremely talented and your choice of colours are beautiful almost ethereal. Bob has set the stage but you have certainly carried it further. Gorgeous painting.
This painting blew my mind! It's like Bob is painting through him. This is the first Nicholas video I see and I wasn't expecting this outcome. Outstanding job. 👏 I hope to see many many more videos like this.
Love his pinks and his colors always , thanks nick we love you and bob bunches ❤❤❤ the sound of the bristles on the canvas bring me to a place I wish I could never leave
The sound of the brush swipes through the canvas is very soothing in my opinion very calming. I’m glad their are talented artists taking Bob Ross mantle in a respectful manner. I love watching this channel and my self got inspired by this channel and made a actual business out of art. Art is life, passion.
Master Bob is a very valuable artist. When I watch his documentaries, I feel like I am a very different person. Rest in peace. I remember you with respect.
What a beautiful painting. You know Something Nick, i people dont take this the wrong way or rude, But you have a soothing voice like the Late Great Mr. BOB ROSS... U would make a wonderful New Bob Ross. Its wonderful how you all keep Mr. ROSS's passion alive. Its so soothing watching and painting.
I know that being on RUclips is allowing for more freedom and time with these one hour specials and PBS would likely limit episodes to 30 minutes; however I still think PBS should most definitely give Nic his own show and bring back a modern weekly version of what we used to have with Bob. I would absolutely love that and I know millions of others out there would as well!
This guy has that same nice personality as Bob. I like his style of painting and the colourful paintings are really mesmerizing. Love the colour choices here. Please make more videos!
It's always a real treat to watch you painting Nic, you make your amazing painting skills so easy to follow . I think it's wonderful how you inspire people to try the Bob Ross Method . I enjoy using this method and i always paint a red roofed Cabin in all my paintings as a tribute to Bob Ross.
Thank you Nic for this fantastic painting ,your a great teacher and thats such a help to a beginner like myself bless you , and Bob for introducing me to painting for the very first time ,I am really enjoying the journey .🇬🇧
Wow those reflections with the different colors look absolutely amazing. The blue trees looked funky at first but once they were all done I really like the added color to the overall scene.
OMG finally after 50 yrs! I always wanted to ask "Bob, how much paint are you scraping up on that blade? So it's the width and a half of cooked spaghetti. Lol I give it to you, you couldn't make a better reference for everyone to understand. This is the first time I'm watching someone else paint for Bob Ross and I definitely see you using his techniques. I can see him smiling from heaven even today
While bob will always be... Bob Ross, you have taken what was special about him and spliced it with yourself, not some cheap xerox of greatness, but inspiration.
I really enjoy Nic's paintings. With the hour duration, there's a lot more time to work with, and his presentation and demeanor are a lot like Bob, while having his own distinct style .
YAY someone is keeping my favorite painter Spirit and art Alive, even his Voice is Soothing like the late, fantastic Bob Ross..Again I’m happy about this..
So wonderful 😍 In the 80's I loved to see Bob in the Joy of painting. Here in Germany I could watch it on school TV in the morning ❤. Even if I couldn't understand everything in this age, I couldn't stop watching. Especially when he was slapping the brush and laughing about it ❤and his Squirrels🐿️🐿️❤ I'm such a big fan 😍
Clicked on this out of curiosity. Very pleasantly surprised by how well Nic steps into Bob's studio. Also great to see the paintings in 1080p instead of 240! Awesome.
Are we going to be seeing any more videos from Nic? It's been a while! I was really enjoying seeing new content and hope to see more from him, it really feels like he's carrying on Bob's legacy.
WE LOVE NICHOLAS HANKINS! So glad to still have people spreading the joy of painting through Bob's spirit. This guy needs his own PBS show 😁
Hmmm😊
Happy Accidents
Верно❤👍🫶
totally agree! 🤩
Cant wait! Love Nic's presentations style and how he incorporates "Bobism's" into it while maintaining his own identity. So good!
Quién es el chico???
@@al_cpwhat?
Este tío es tan raro, siento que está tratando de actuar como Bob Ross pero no está funcionando 😂@@al_cp
Yes, his 'Bobism's' as you well defined them, makes painting pleasant, and technically he is very good
I'm digging this guy. Hope to see more of him!!
yea is'int the detail so good
fr@@ObeyIlyTrixx
@aimeemonk2645 it's good, just like Bob Ross
This is the best way to honor Bob's memory. He may be gone, but he left his brush behind. This man has taken it up, and he is doing a fantastic job.
Indeed he is!
his show wasn't about painting, 99.99% of everyone who watched had no intention to paint...it was his personality and ability to induce relaxation and calmness and help take away anxiety and stress...what he wss doing wasn't about painting..oh to a few people sure but not the vast majority, i know a lot of people who watched his show including me and none of them paint..tons of people know him and his show and don't paint at all. so if you think his show is about paintring..thats secondary to what he was doing.
@@westoftherockiesSecondary to ur mind...but Primary in Bob mind...he wants ppl to enjoy painting...that's why he is so chill
@@westoftherockies I wonder why the show was called "The Joy of Painting"
@@westoftherockiesIf that were true, why did he get letters and pictures of paintings from people who were inspired by Robert when he was alive?
Thanks to Bob I started to paint years ago. His death at such a young age was a big loss for so many. Thanks Nic, for bringing back some of the joy he always brought us

Nic! Please keep these coming. They are very enjoyable for everyone. I appreciate you!
Nic is the GOAT. Upload more often please.
Why are you calling this man a goat, what does it mean?
Greatest of all time
This is beautiful. Bob Ross has been gone for so long, but he clearly made an impact. I use to watch him alllll the time growing up.
Bob Ross muy buen pintor Paisajista 😢
Yes he did
Here I am, stuck at home with a miserable cold, and I find this! Thanks, Nic, for brightening my day and letting me forget for an hour how rotten I feel! Please keep them coming!
Thank you for keeping the dream alive. Now, more than ever. 🎨
We need lots more like this, can't get enough!
It's an incredibly large legacy to live up to, it's so good to see someone fulfilling that role correctly, you are doing amazing ❤
Nic Hankins, It's amazing to see how far you've come in terms of being in front of the camera. Bob would be proud!
Nic, great work. Please don't stop. I love these shows. Hope for lots and lots more!
Whenever I’m so upset that I cry hard and I feel like it’s the end of my world I play a video of his to release my stress and anxiety. Thanks for continuing his videos that make us feel better.

Painting is really the only joy in the world. 😢 we miss you Bob.
What about the other joy? Ping pong?

Как за основной большой горой где должна быть тень на маленькой горе видно снег??? Логически там тень!
This guy is very worthy to carry on Bob's legacy.
So good to see new content that is different and new but still following a similar theme to the original. This is not something that grows old. Thanks Nic and keep them coming.
Bob would love to see his work alive again, legends never die!
Glad to see people who want to continue Bob's way!

Nic is great. Wonderful painter and presenter. Pays homage to Bob without trying to imitate. A talent that can stand alone.
It's a pleasure watching you paint...your voice is so calming. Ty so much and I hope to see more!!
Those blue green highlights on the spruce were amazing! Made the whole painting come alive.
Great to see you doing another live Nic! I ALWAYS get nuggets from you so THANK YOU!! Hope to see you more!! 😃
I'd love to see more demos with Nic!
Keep em coming! Nic is fabulous.

This was amazing! We watched with our guests and we were all mesmerized! ❤

So beautiful and natural how some of the water is showing through the bushes at the bottom right of the painting. Simply gorgeous.
The sound of the brush swipes through the canvas is very soothing in my opinion very calming. I’m glad their are talented artists taking Bob Ross mantle in a respectful manner. I love watching this channel and my self got inspired by this channel and made a actual business out of art. Art is life, passion.
Nic is the perfect person for the job. And it shows with every video.
Amen to that!
This should grow to a whole series. I’m talking like 20+ seasons series. Man, Bob would be happy like a little tree.
you have really kept the dream of Bob alive. Thank you! May God bless Bob's soul in Heaven.
Master Bob is a very valuable artist. When I watch his documentaries, I feel like I am a very different person. Rest in peace. I remember you with respect.

Nothing like some Bob Ross magic to get your day going. We miss you man,
love how nic keeps the spirit and chillness of bob! please more of this videos from nic! ♥
that surprise bravery test at the end was my favorite part!
It was perfect until that point. I didn't care for it. My $.02.
I missed Bob Ross so much. I wish to start painting 🖌️🎨 at the age of 1 in 1981.
his mountains are absolutely stunning
If Bob were to be here today, he would be very proud of Nicholas. ❤️

Really nice...strokes like Bob...
You're amazing for continuing Bob's legacy. Thank you, Nic!
A 5 gallon bucket with a stick of pvc running through it works great for beating the devil out of the brush! Super simple to make also!
we need more episodes consistently. one a week would be great, but one every 2 weeks would be perfect.
His voice is Great like Bob’s calming
Fantastic painting . 😀
You are so very talented..Junior Bob Ross here!!!!
