    Prior to his career painting on TV, he spent 20 years in the U.S. Air Force. As a sergeant, he did a lot of yelling. He decided not to raise his voice when he left the military.

      It's also where he came up with this style of painting, as an Air Force sergeant he was all over the shop, he came up with this "wet canvas" style of painting so he could paint a lot faster and easier while he was stationed in the middle of nowhere.

      Painting is supposed to be fun. One instructional book I have says to paint a small canvas each night for three months, and stick to a set time short enough where it is difficult to finish, and don't even worry about the quality of the painting, and when that time is up stick that canvas in a closet and don't look at it. Repeat this for the 90 days and only then look through canvases. One will see improvement, and the advantage of that way is that one's style starts to emerge since one isn't really doing a paint by numbers approach.

    • @unclebounce1495

      If you really want it to turn out well, you need to use his real method. Use the "liquid white" base (either use his paints, which are a premium price, or purchase alternative versions meant to serve the same purpose. it's a specific style of painting on a wet background that he mastered and made famous). Use the real paints, real canvases, and decent brushes and you'll get real decent (at first) then good results. Follow his opening season episodes or his special extra long ones where he takes more time reciting the basic instructions. it can be done.

      Ikr? He has this whole background scenery painted, and then SHAZAM he adds foreground right over the background he painted like it was never there. But somehow, we knew that lake, or treeline, or hill or whatever he just painted over was still there. I always wondered why he bothered taking time to paint all that background when he was just going to paint over it, but now I see it's part of the process, and the blending of colors bc that background IS really still there making the hues of the foreground more like in real life. His technique was amazing.

    My daughter (38) had a ‘Paint along with Bob Ross’ event. I believe she posted it in the town where she lives as well as on Facebook. She purchased a bunch of supplies so that folks who didn’t own any would have the paint, canvas, and tools necessary. It was a big hit, and people of all ages showed up. She had beverages, wine and non-alcoholic ones, as well as cracker with cheese etc. (It was held during a super slow time at a restaurant, out on their deck.) Everyone was incredibly happy, and it opened a door for those who never felt that they had any artistic abilities. The variety of the finished paintings was fantastic, and no one ended up with a painting that looked like ‘mud’. I think you might have better results than you imagine-please try it!

Then Mr Bob was coming on so we had the little TV in there and I’d been in my spot playing GI Joes and papaw blowing glass and Mr. Bob in the background. He’d say hey look at that Pete. He called me “Pete” cause he wanted me to be named Peter but I wasn’t but he called me Pete until the day he died. So many child hood memories unlocked!

    Still one of the best shows to fall asleep to.
    So Bob was sanctioned in the US Air Force in Alaska and fell in love with the landscape there. After he left, he traveled the US Northwest for awhile studying landscapes and how the land, trees, and things. He spent his time working on very particular and 16th century form of painting that was not very popular called wet-on-wet. He had learned this mostly from a German TV show made by Bill Alexander. Most painters had to do each color and layer in their paintings in separate sessions letting the paints set. The wet-on-wet technique uses a constant blending of the paints to paint quickly. This limits the techniques that can be used as well as the range of colors.
    But Bob found he didn't have the patience for traditional painting and he loved just inventing these worlds in his head on his work breaks. So he came up with a particular set of colors and limited himself to the fan brush, 2-inch brush, 1-inch brush, fine detail brush, and a pallet knife and worked on a particular style that could be done easily and quickly.
    For the show he painted each painting three times. He painted one painting in rehearsal to lay out his ideas, figure out the timing, decide on techniques, and the theme of the painting he wanted to teach in that episode. The second painting he did almost always in one take on camera (usually with very little editing). And then finally he would go through and do another one slowly for photography for his instructional books that he also sold. Stopping after each step to do step-by-step close up pictures as it progressed. Bob painted around 30,000 paintings in his life and rarely sold any of them. He instead made most of his living off selling the books and paint kits. He really rather wanted to give people the gift of knowledge and have people paint for themselves instead of coveting something he created.

      @@41Vega For the paint, stick with either the Bob Ross or William Alexander Brands. They are specifically designed for the Wet-on-Wet technique. They are dryer and firmer than traditional oil paints. If you can't find them at your local art supply store, you can order on-line from their respective web sites. As far as canvasses, any canvas that are labeled "suitable for oil and acrylic" will do. You can either get "canvas boards" or "pre-streatched canvas. The pros for canvas boards are they are cheaper in cost and are a good alternative for someone who is just starting out to see if they they like it. The con is that they do have a tendency to warp over time (unless mounted in a frame). Pre Streatched canvas is just that - canvas mounted on a wooden frame. They usually come with plastic wedges you tap into slots cut in the corners on the back of the frame to make the canvas more taut. Just make sure that the canvas says (at minimum) it is "doubled prime".
      Added Tip - The thing many beginners struggle with is putting on too little or more often , too much liquid white. The best way to test is to lightly touch your finger to the canvas. Just the ridges on your finger print should be distinctly and uniformly white. Best to start light because you can always add more. Over time you'll instinctively know how much to put on. If you accidentally added too much, just go over the canvas with a clean dry brush (depending how much you added you may have to do this several times - cleaning the brush each time).
      Hope this helps?

    What I love about Bob is that he puts so much work into painting the background details in his paintings, then will cover it up with trees, or a mountain. There is an entire world in his paintings, even if you can't see it, it's there all the same.

I've gotten better through the years, 600 paintings, sold a couple of hundred for a few dollars. gave the others to friends and family. Bob is a blessing. I had a heart attack in95 ,, I was 40 .took me 2 years to get over it. Bob was there .,on the tv. helping me get better, I'm 69 now. God bless.

    The thing to remember, Bob is painting in oils, and you cannot duplicate his technique with acrylics. They just wont work that way. But even if you work in acrylics you can still learn so much from Bob.
    My grandfather managed to get into one of Bob Ross' classes and the snowy cabin at night he did was phenomenal.

  • @wittsullivan8130
    @wittsullivan8130 Před 14 dny +1

    A little "behind the scenes", Bob Ross would paint three identical paintings for each episode. He painted one painting to plan his techniques and tools and to write the script for the show (there actually weren't any "happy little accidents"). He painted one version for the intro and then the version he painted during the episode. Most of his paintings are locked in a warehouse. Every once in a while a few go to auction for charities, mostly for museums, schools, and libraries, who usually keep the paintings on display. VERY FEW are owned by private individuals. He was a perfectionist. As long as you did your job to his approval, he was very laid back, but he wanted things done right and if you didn't, there were going to be some words.

    I loved watching Bob Ross paint, and enjoyed his soft speaking voice and pure talent! He was on tv every week, and after a few shows, i was tempted to get his books, paints, and other supplies to test my ability (i had 2 years of art in high school), but i never did it, and I've always wondered if i could paint a picture even 10% as good as he did. At 73 years old, I'm now content to read books and watch youtube. William Alexander was also on tv, but he wasn't as soft spoken as Bob.....RIP Bob Ross! As a subscriber, i thank you for giving us a chance to watch a remarkably talented painter!

    The best part about Bob to me was that he never really planned out his paintings, he had general ideas of what he wanted but would just do whatever came to him at the moment. And despite the chaotic process, all his works embody peace, oneness with nature, and simple joys. Bob Ross is the Patron Saint of Painting to Beat Depression.

I was in total awe watching him. I never tried painting but I would lose myself in his art & come away every time feeling a glorious peace in my soul & a deep calmness. Amazing, blessed man!
