Its bob ross everyone knows and talks about love, not you. And he shared his remarkable talent. His legacy lives on as does his name.

Bud it’s a fire at night It’s glowing in the background. His shows definitely have a different vibe then your video that’s for sure lol

I love her art hauls. Many artists are very geeky about their supplies so I think this sort of thing has plenty of value for many of us.

I was and am automatically turned off by the disrespect toward Bob. Why do you feel a need to do that?

From 83 to 94 the joy of painting was on. I think he just liked that 70s afro style..

Very nice

There are better painters but he was more interested in bringing painting to more people and his presentation and being able to do it quickly and present it in a way that made sense made it a great combination.

You don't have natural colors at night especially when lit by yellowish orange fire light.

The guy is good at what he does. That's the long and short of it.

Yes it is a window

It's about quality not quantity. Any KZbinr can chug out videos every other day. But Valerie's videos are works of art within themselves. They are not stagnant but offer a variety of curiosities, scenery and pertinent information. And her editing is paramount. She is gentle, humble and sincere. This lady has something worth watching and listening to. So are you looking for 👍 based on your evaluation of her class act. I honestly lost interest in your opinions after you found it so funny that she has only 8 videos. You don't seem to fully appreciate her ability to attract so many views. No one wants to hear you compare yourself to her. I find your evaluation cheap. This lady is in a league of her own. And you don't get it. Not everything needs to be analyzed. Her videos speak for themselves. And she's got the numbers to prove it. There is an aesthetic of peacefulness about her videos that is not contrived through technique. Much more appealing than so many motor mouth babblers. You are making this so technical and therefore you don't get the essence of her appeal. I don't see the need for your "evaluation". You seem to want people to see her through your eyes. With her numbers who needs your opinion.

Fake, fake, fake

Definitely not a cringe painter. To me, Warhol, Basquiat, Haring, Koons, Hirst, Duchamp and Rauschenberg are cringe artists.

Camp fire is one of bobs defining single point perspectives took me half way through be locking into oh its single pov

There are 3 paintings per episode, the original Bob is using as visual reference, a spare, and the one he painted with in the 30 minute pbs time slot, with the wet on wet technics Bob mententioned the priming and supply's very briefly then movied on with the painting I grew up on pbs and art always been an obsession but he really was a head of the trend not a head of time perfect time but the trend is replicate Bob Ross in any medium

Bob Ross is a damn National Treasure.

Bob Ross is a national treasure. Millions of people took his classes and learned to paint. I am one of them. Not on his level; but it helped me recover from a series of Mini Strokes. He calm voice, kind words and encouragement helped regain fine motor skills.

thats why you got 1 k subscribers

easy to talk you do this shit bra

this man is a hater good luck my friend

Is Ross a great painter, no. Is Ross an important painter, yes. He makes craft of painting accessible to everyone.

The 3rd video was not Bob but his son. For every paint he performed on TV, he made 3 of them. One before the show, one during the show and one last after. And during the show, he used the first as reference, that's why he was looking on his right every 30s. The main purpose of this show was to give advices to paint beginers, to give them confidence in their skills, that's why he kept saying "do what you want, it's your world, there's not mistakes, only happy little accidents..."

Ahem, Bob Ross is 80s. Bob started the Joy of Painting on Jan 11, 1983. Ah.. Just to be clear, I am not trying to be mean or anything. Just helpful.

Ross will forever be an American icon. He had a 20 yr career in the Air Force and completely changed his life to encourage the art of painting to an entire nation. He inspired the artist in all of us and continues to do so even though he's gone.

Ok i heard you say you are an artist .. i know the bio on you says people like Tom Cruise follow you ... so i looked up some of your art work - definitely more modern avante garde as is the style nowadays. As someone who still likes more classical paintings by Constable and Turner, Monet etc. i find my taste (and i know that everyones taste is different which makes the art world varied and fantastic) prefers the Bob Ross aesthetic (and i know it is not high end - and there is no pretense as such). Plus knowing that it is intended to help viewers begin painting makes it more appealing. After all the show was called The Joy of Painting.

Fyi Bob Ross's first tv painting sold (after he passed away) for over $9 million ... Most are owned by a company in his name and an original rarely if ever comes up for sale.

This better be the last time you skip ahead on a Bob Ross show.

I feel like you went into this with a preconceived decision about how you felt. Don’t let your professor (who was likely jealous) make up your mind for you.

Anyone calling this amazing painter and human, admired by millions in the US and worldwide "Cringe" is either full of envy and resentment or just an idiot!

What a lot of people don't know was that the primary purpose of that show wasn't to bring in viewers to the channel- that was part of it, of course- but it's true purpose was to sell paint, lol. That's why they listed all the colors across the screen at the beginning, and why Bob kept referring to their specific names like "Titanium White" as he was painting. Also he hated that goofy hair, I forget why he rocked it in the first place but he only kept it permed because it became associated with the brand, lol It was still a wholesome show and Bob was in it for the right reasons, his love of painting, but I think it's funny that per usual there was a serious business side to it that most people aren't aware of

Everyone grew up with him and he's a national treasure. He might paint the same kind of shit over and over, with some exceptions if you watch the whole series but he encouraged generations to pick up paint. His narrating style is always known to be tranquil for many listeners long before podcasts. Plus he was on tv in the 80's early 90s, not the 70's.

I actually enjoyed the episode with his son, I agree with your criticism about him, but I also feel that he got much better a couple of minutes in, when he got a bit more comfortable with the situation. Cool analysis though. I have no intention of painting anything any time soon, but I enjoy picking up on his techniques, but above all, I just enjoy watching him paint and relax.

Bill Alexander, bob's mentor, was better. Bob's style seems a little too touched up. I like the looser semi-impressionistic end of Alexander's paintings.

80s not 70s

You didn’t mention bill Alexander who taught Bob Ross the wet on wet technique

Make your own career. Never heard of you.

Beautiful process and outcome...In your closing commentary, it woukd have been more meaningful, at least to me, if the camera were in the parts of the painting you were reflecting on.🤗

Could someone please enlighten me as to what exactly is "tacky" about a cabin nestled in the wilderness at the base of a mountain?????

I liked it muted

He also has one off frame that he actually spent time into just as a reference so he can zip through them on camera.

No, Bob wasn't cringe. Bob was about calm and good with the world.

What is your background in painting?

The very first painting he did on his first show! Is estimated to be worth is 9.8 million!

We have a painter in Montréal,Quebec who did a tv show in the eighties ( in French) it was a bit like Bob Ross, is name was Charles Garo, Tatossian he was very popular on tv., you can find some of his vied on KZbin but it's in french..

He was dying of cancer.

Never knew his son was a painter as well. Cannot be easy living in the shadow of your father and always being compared. Especially when we are all individuals. The fro was quite common. The drummers Don Brewer and Don Henley come to mind. I wasa AZ cowboy that always wore my Western hat and with hair about as long as Bob Ross's son's. And I also had a permanent It wasn't as Curly as his but.. it wasn't straight either. Lol perm would last about 6 months. In the early seventies I went to the local Art Studio and ask the instructor if he knew someone to paint a wall mural. They used a similar technique but a lot more detail and they spent close to a week doing it. He went through nearly $80 worth of oil paint alone. Minimum wage at the time was a $1.40 an hour. Lol But hey when he was done I had a detailed picture of Havasu falls in the Grand Canyon. 🚜🤠🐂

Your cringe for saying that about bob Ross

His afro is a perm and it was to save money

His pallet is plastic

While I don't care for his formulaic style because it has no soul, his backstory is truly amazing how he transformed himself from hard ass military instructor into the most lovable tv personality you could imagine. On his own time through sheer force of will he learned his craft and touched so many lives with his personality.
