Dear youtube. Never do this again. Never interrupt Bob Ross with a commercial. Never, and I mean NEVER do that again. I don't use adblock. I watch all the ads, I help support you. Do not ruin those rare moments of happiness that I have when I watch Mr. Ross paint. Start of the show? Fine. Unannounced right in the middle of him painting a happy tree? NO. JUST NO! You NEVER interrupt a man that's painting a happy tree! The tree is happy! Stop ruining happy!

[@lordBritish1]

When you are as good as a painter as Bob Ross was, you are able to paint something in less then 30 minutes and have it look great also since it was a Tv show there was a lot of editing

[@philiproach2537]

​@@lordBritish1 I'm sure there was editing, but I don't think it was overdone. For example, here's one thing you never see: Bob with a canvas full of nothing but beautiful sky, fluffy clouds and, proud mountains - and then the camera cuts and there's some goddamn happy tree that popped up out of nowhere. Bob has too much personal integrity for that.

This is amazing, he paints all of these from his mind, no references at all. Can't put into words how difficult that is.

[@misskim2058]

It's actually much easier than trying to follow a real scene. It can look like whatever you want, so it can't be inaccurate. You can't screw up, it's your world:)

[@YourMomz07]

well yeah.. but I mean, it's easy to end up making proportions accidentally silly when just going off of your head.

[@Darkdialga12]

That's why artists practice drawing things from reference by simplifying and breaking the reference into shapes of color and value. You have to build up a visual library in your head before you can draw from imagination, and the only way of doing that is observing things over and over again.

[@YourMomz07]

lol you're the most helpful friendly troll on the whole internet. thank you MasterTroll!

[@Darkdialga12]

If you really want to learn how to paint just take photos or use real life reference and paint the shadows before you paint the mid tone and light on top, like Bob does. Learn about hue shifting, colors inherently having different values, and learn about how light and bounces and interacts with different materials. Check out Proko's video for light and shadow and how to draw basic forms and check out this guy called Kienan Lafferty, he has some videos about color that are top notch. Try looking up "color boomerang kienan lafferty" on KZbin as well as Proko

I found the most gut wrenching heart squeezing soul fixing patrochilles fic and clicked next chapter only to have those dreaded three numbers stare back at me i want to kms

[@tyrain9846]

Omg but you need to tell me the title and author please when it's back up.

[@fizzybel656]

if you go into settings, you can actually change it to show all chapters at once. when ao3 goes down again, you can carry on reading (just don't refresh). i think you can also download fics.

[@bethaniie_]

on the contrary, I was halfway through the most explicit, appalling, jaw-dropping, disgraceful, prison-worthy, utterly indescribable smut that upon reading I realised I will never see the light of heaven, until I accidentally refreshed my page and watched the last of my soul fizzle into the deepest depths of hell

I heard that if he did carry on the profession it would have reminded him of his father, I don't blame him for that.

[@Silem97]

When he talked about creating happy places where no one is unhappy in his paintings I felt my heart crack thinking about his real life and that someone or something might have hurt him so he found an escape in creating happy places in his own world of painting. Like all of us are looking for something to escape from reality and things that hurt us

[@thebeefybrother5205]

He was in the military so maybe painting was his escape from possible ptsd from when he was there

[@PearlGods]

the painting was basically a way to cope with his ptsd from the military

[@maverick90717]

His wife, Jane, had cancer throughout his series, but she wanted him to keep painting. So I'm guessing he used this to help cope and make her happy. "Gotta have opposites dark and light, light and dark in a painting. It’s like in life. Gotta have a little sadness once in a while so you know when the good times come. I’m waiting on the good times now." That episode definitely tugged on the ole heart strings.
