He did have his own paint brush and paint supply company most of the paints he listed and used in the episodes were from his company.

In the mid-late 80's my mother won a place in one of his painting lessons from a ceramics piece she painted for a craft show to promote her store, and she still has the painting she did in the class.

ThAt's because Bob Ross wasn't afraid to make a mistake. He'd call it a happy accident and, patiently, work the error into the painting in such a way you'd never in your life guess it wasn't intentional.

[@BenjiQ575]

you would be surprised how often that happens in art. It's a bit like taking a couple of run-up steps before jumping across a gap. You carefully measure the smallest possible mark you can make, and once the seal has been broken, and you're committed to the decision, you can widen it and detail it until it looks like it was always meant to be. It works in painting, it works in writing, it works in engineering. Baby steps often lead to some beautifully marvellous manoeuvres, and, like the other fellow said, being unafraid to make mistakes to see where they lead. The trick is that you have to be patient, and thoughtful, and VERY careful, like you're handling delicate glass, because the first step is so crucial to the mistake being something you can turn into a master manoeuvre. It also works in interpersonal diplomacy/therapy; the most delicate broaching of a sensitive topic can prepare a person to receive firmer, potentially harsher advice.

Yeah, like when he says, "let's use a nice yellow for our snow." Immediately you think, "What?! Nooo!!" But then you see it finished and it's perfect!

[@johnkm77]

What a wonderful idea for a channel. I especially loved how happy it made them feel to watch him painting and his joy in doing so. Bob Ross was an amazing person, and it's nice to see that he's still bringing joy to people many years after his passing.

[@mrmjb1960]

He died in the 90's but his "Joy Of Painting" is still running on PBS.

Bob Ross has twitch channel and streams full series many times

Theyve started playing it in the UK again on BBC.

[@nosferato140]

Has a channel on pluto tv!

One interesting thing I just found out about Bob Ross is that he used to be a drill instructor in the U.S. military. Its hard to imagine this calm, soft-spoken man without his hair, yelling at recruits.

[@samueldejulio]

I bet he brought in a painting and a brush to place in front of the soldiers every day. Then, every time somebody messed up he'd say "Okay, everyone can say thank you to Private Jones. Because of him I'm going to ruin this beautiful painting." He makes a huge smudge right in the middle of the painting, ruining it. Everyone groans and yells at Private Jones for causing the punishment. Drill Sergeant Ross smiles to himself, knowing he will secretly turn the smudge into a beautiful cabin later that evening when nobody is looking.

[@the_retag]

@@samueldejulio that sound so funny and bob

[@elaynarice7389]

At the end of his military career, he decided that he didn't want to yell any more. That's why he adopted the calm and quiet persona that we all know.

[@SnailHatan]

I want to see so many more channels like this, all over the world. We, in the more modern world with easy internet access, can take for granted just how much information about the world is available to us. We can learn so much about people and cultures of all kinds, but it’s truly beautiful to see those who didn’t grow up in our kind of environment get to experience new things for the first time. Really puts some things into perspective

[@sasukesarutobi3862]

Such lovely reactions, and an especially good day for Riaz - to have a delicious piece of chocolate cake and then be introduced to Bob Ross' painting is a happy experience, and you can see it in his eyes.

these are such beautiful people. reminds me that everyone has something to share. thank you

[@Silver_Owl]

When I first saw Mr Abdul Aziz Rind, I thought what a wonderful expressive face he had, he looked so full of wisdom. Then he spoke, and his words were just as wonderful as his face was, especially his remark about Bob Ross remaining immortal through his work. Respect to you, sir.

[@applejuice3562]

I know that myself and many of my friends grew up watching Bob Ross with our mothers and grandmothers. Special memories are attached to that man. I have a close friend who's grandmother painted her wall and door to her apartment after watching a Bob Ross video.

Bob Ross actually hated his hair but wasn't allowed to cut it to keep with the image of the show. RIP Bob Ross

[@TRYBALS]

Rip Bob Ross ❤️

[@MikkiManson13]

It's not that he wasn't allowed to cut it. It's that he felt he should keep it-- because by the time he wanted it gone, it had already became his company's logo

[@Michal-mc6co]

He was allowed to cut his hair, but he did not wanted

[@FrostJarl]

The details around his hair style had a few points, he didn't like the perm much but he did it originally as a way to save money since he wouldn't be getting his hair cut as often and he kept it because the style became a sort-of calling card for him. The rest of his style of dress was also very deliberate, he picked the simple blue jeans and shirt because he thought it would be a timeless style and wouldn't look out of place if someone were watching the video years later.

"you told me he is no more...but i would say he is immortal with his art work" rip Bob

The only thing that would make this better is seeing their reactions whenever Ross expressed confidence in the viewers' ability to paint like him and how Bob Ross believed everyone had a level of skill in painting.

[@dianeclayton6063]

That baby is lulled to sleep by Bob's soothing voice like the rest of us who play the vids for sleep. Ross was also a great lover of animals, and took in and rehabilitated some. Truly a good and kind man.

Funny! The little girl nodding off did remind me of my friends that play his videos to go to sleep! Going to have to try it.

There are so many ways to bring people of the world together; food, music, art, laughter, and so on. It makes me happy when people learn that. Their reactions are priceless. Much love and respect for all involved in sharing the world with others.

Thank you so much for appreciating our efforts ❤️😊🌷🤗

[@FormlessPersuasion]

You have said what I was thinking. I'm always in awe at the ways food, music, art, laughter, ect...have the ability to bring people of the world together. How lovely would the world be if things like this were prioritized instead of the violence and wars that get started due to egotistical people...

I'm a lifelong fan of Bob Ross. He was a staple on our TV and we sometimes painted along with him. I loved his happy little accidents.

[@RabbitsInBlack]

Bob Ross actually never meant for those Paintings to be in an Art Gallery. They are Teaching EXAMPLES. He wanted to teach you how to do this. HOWEVER The Smithsonian's American History Museum recently added two of paintings, his easel, palette, brushes, and other “Joy of Painting”-related materials to its collection.

[@JustJake77]

Yeah the Bob Ross Society only let's a few paintings a year out for showing.... The list is long and most get denied... The majority of Bob's paintings are in a nondescript office in some small town not on display buy in storage.... It isn't open to the public at all..

[@Gunplabro]

Bob Ross deserves to have his work in Galleries all over the world. He was a world class fine artist.

What I like about these reactors is, is that they are genuine. If they find it nice, they will say it's nice. If they find it bad, they will say it's bad. And there's no "pressure" for them to overreact like some other channels. They just say how it is.

[@MrFarnanonical]

My mom has been watching bob ross since the 80s, so I grew up with this in the 90s. I always liked how he'd make this great painting and then take his knife and add something right in the middle and ruin the whole thing... until 30 seconds later after he's smoothed it out and blended it and then all of a sudden it's on an entirely different level.

That was Bob Ross' magic. He made you want to try for yourself. When my son was like three to four years old he told our neighbours that daddy is always watching "the joy of pain". When he told me I was like 😳

Bob Ross knew how to paint, but these folk know how to deliver a compliment. There's real kindness in their hearts, and sophistication in their manner.

[@Caperhere]

He painted to recover from the military. He would say things like” we will put some happy little trees”. He had a really soft voice. It was almost like meditation to watch him, very relaxing.

[@TRYBALS]

Yes painting is a great therapy ❤️ watching Bob Ross could also be relaxing ❤️

[@Dilligff]

More than that, he was a drill sergeant. Yeah, like Ronald Lee Ermey from Full Metal Jacket. He got so fed up with having to be loud and mean that he made it his life's mission to go a full 180 from that for the remainder of his life. www.wearethemighty.com/intel/bob-ross-air-force-drill-instructor-becoming-televisions-beloved-painter/

The reason why I chose his video is that I myself am an artist and I always wondered how non artistic people would think of him? I am so happy that common people like our reactors liked Bob. He is simply magic himself
