- At 52, Bob Ross FINALLY Admitted What We All Suspected Before His Death
The Kowalskis versus Ross legal saga was a hot topic 30 years ago. Immediately after Bob Ross' death, the Kowalski couple's greed for total ownership of Bob Ross Inc. which the three partners had built together turned into cruelty. Bob Ross basically kept the company alive with his stunning landscape paintings, engaging TV show, and calm personality which fans loved. Without Bob, the Kowalskis knew they wouldn't rake in as much money as the sale of Bob's art and paintbrushes would, so they did the unthinkable. Three decades later, the Ross family has revealed the Kowalskis' selfish intentions, confirming what we were all thinking and suspecting about the couple. What lengths did the Kowalskis go to expand their wealth at the Ross family's expense? Keep watching because you're in for a shock.
I’ve been boycotting anything to do with the hostile takeover of the Bob Ross legacy and will continue to do so until his products and name is restored to the Ross family.
The Kowalski's should have been & still should be arrested for all the corrupt manipulative things they've done to Bob & his family.....how they're still being able to operate is an outrage & downright shameful😮
I stopped buying Bob Ross Inc products after watching the Netflix film, I still paint using Bob's technique but will never again give money to that toxic family
I agree the Kowalski family should be ashamed. I think the Ross family should benefit from all money made after his death.
From his paintings and supplies . So much for trusted friends when it comes to Greed , well they will have to answer to someone higher than themselves .. Greed has a price in the end. And It's HOT DOWN THERE!!
He was the best therapy anyone could have. He took people to another world. A truely gifted loving and peaceful man. I so miss him. RIP❤❤❤❤❤
The Kowalski family should be ashame of themselves. They leached all the joy out of the life of a man in his dying days. The prohibited his family from the legacy that was Bob Ross. they had an agreement that was drawn up that was not to fvor anyone but themselves. In the end all the work and talent one this one gentle man was only for their benifit, How very sad that they chose not to have the graciousness to include love in their plan. May justice of the universe be served on to them.
The Kowalskis stole Bob Ross's sons legacy. How can this vile couple sleep at night!!
My husband and I watched Bob Ross paint on his show and found his voice very soothing. “The angry clouds” and all his glorious works of art. My children watched with us. They are now ages 55, 51, and 45 years old. We are 72 years young.
Bob would draw his paint from the top of the canvas down and at first glance you didn’t know where he was going with the color. Then all of a sudden you saw what he was bringing out in the picture. He painted some great forests. We are so saddened to hear what he went through at the end of his life. He was definitely the better man. God will look on him kindly and give him a reward worth far more than the Kowalski’s took from him. RIP BOB ❤🙏🏻
Nope, and I never will again. That couple are greedy pigs. He was a sweet gentle soul who they harassed. No one should have to die like that. And as a fellow artist, that's not what he wanted his art to stand for. I feel for his family and hope they found peace in there memories and good times they had with him.
Here in Australia, I’d never heard of Bob Ross until I saw the documentary, I looked him up , what a lovely gentle man , I now follow his tutorials…
Horrible people to bleed such a wonderful artist dry.
I loved watching Bob , this breaks my heart that they were greedy with him and his family !!! They will answer for it , RIP Bob !!! We love you and your painting . 🥲
I loved Bob Ross and we refer to him today in acrylic painting using happy little trees. We loved him - not the company and NOT the greedy owners, who will or have paid for their evil deeds.
I think everything needs to be given back to the Ross family.
What filthy, money hungry vultures! They are disgusting people! But $ comes and money goes! And I sincerely hope that the Kowalski $ lovers learn their lesson some day! Money oftentimes disappears the same way it comes!😮 God Bless Bob Ross for bringing so much happiness and instilling hope in many people’s hearts with his art, for his kindness, and for his love and respect for animals! ❤❤❤❤❤
What makes me so sad is that the Kowalskis made such a gentle soul experience such turmoil in his last days. Bob should have had a peaceful time in those days especially after he brought so much joy and peace to others during his lifetime. It's so true that money is the root of all evil.
My father 80, my daughter 17 and I 57 all loved to watch your fathers show Steve Ross. And I am sure Chandra and her children will enjoy it also. Thank you Bob Ross.
Surely a lawyer could have stopped their cruel and criminal actions
It is sad that Bob Ross Inc. couldn't be divided equally and fairly. Even though Bob Ross' focus wasn't to make money, the Kowalski's, being in charge of business finances needed to do the right thing and give Bob Ross his fair share. Bob Ross' son needed a equal share too since Bob Ross' son promoted his father's painting techniques also. If the Kowalski's had respect for Bob Ross, they would have honored Bob Ross' calm way of teaching art. By fighting Bob's family and sueing organizations that were connected to the Bob Ross' business, the Kowalski's greed destroyed the calm atmosphere and spiritual essence Bob Ross portrayed. I know that Bob's painting helped many people, even when viewers didn't paint. Listening to Bob's tranquil voice calmed his audience. Audiences didn't have to paint. They felt at peace by simply watching the show. Slowing down and helping take stress out of our daily lives is a very needed skill in these often times in out turbulent fast paced lives.
I loved Bob Ross, gentle sweet man, rest in peace , you are missed
I love seeing all the pictures I’ve never seen of Bob and his family
They will get theirs. Just give it time.
Such a tragic story….greed overtook the Kowalski’s and Bob Ross had all the talent and his family was left out in the cold. Kowalskis were poor excuses for human beings…despicable.
Bob has the sweetest heart you can tell he loved what he did painting this man is a legend it's people like the Kowalskis that make me sick
He's one of the reasons I became an artist! Karma will make things right because no good comes from evil deeds! Bob and his family deserve better.
I met bob ross very nice man was so glad to meet him took painting lessons from steve ross did the ross family wrong won't buy any of the products. Ought to be ashamed
This always happens. A true talent and its parasites. Thank you bob for inspiring me personally to greater things. I will remember YOU not the parasites
ITS THIS WONDERFUL MAN,THAT GOT ME PAINTING, I USED TO LIE IN BED AT NIGHT WATCHING HIM PAINT,HIS VOICE WAS SO SOOTHING THAT BY THE TIME HE FINISHED HIS PAINTING I FEEL ASLEEP.
THANK YOU BOB,FOR YOUR WONDERFUL PAINTINGS,AND TEACHING ME HOW TO PAINT.
REST IN PEACE
Bob was a nice man who fell into a trap. Dollars win over kindness. Greed is a serious sin because it always leads to someone getting hurt!
So many artists , musicians, etc have been screwed by people like the kawalsikis. The legal system in this country is pathetic.
Bob Ross taught me to love painting and the Kowalski family should be ashamed at what they did and doing.
I never buy these products now
He got cancer from inhaling all those paint fumes...Since the law gave the Kowalski EVERYTHING, it means that he worked for them. Wonder if he could have sued them regarding his health and endangered environment. OSHA should have been involved.
It’s sad how they took advantage of Bob Ross
The evil couple will surely reap what they sowed!!!
I stared watching Bob Ross years ago,loved his paintings...which got me interested in painting.The Kowalski family are awlful.His rights should all to the Ross Family!!!!
Bob Ross started me off painting when I was 80 years old. I will be forever grateful for his gentle manner and easy style, he made it so easy to follow, it really was a joy. How the Kowalski's could treat him like that is more than shameful and they won't get away with it.
Whenever money is involved anything is possible
Think of all the attorneys fees Bob Ross’s family had to pay fighting these rich greedy people…..😬
What a disgusting pair of vultures they are. Bob was an extraordinary man who was brazenly tricked out of money he so well worked hard for I am so disgusted and feel terribly sad for Ross and his family
What a beautiful person Bob was and a stunning artist, i wish i was taught by him when I was in school as i never learnt anything from our so called art teachers, but the nicer you are the more someone is going to take advantage of you, but greed doesn't get you anywhere, do they not realise that we all die one day and something we can't avoid.
Bob Ross got me painting again! I love Bob and his son Steve. Wish Steve would come to Las Vegas,Nevada and assist me more in painting. Rest in Peace Bob Ross I love you and watch all the reruns of your show.
Greed...Greedy.. greed
So sad to see what Bob Ross went through during his last days. No one should leave this world that way. Especially him. He was one of a kind. Such a calm and peaceful soul. I knew nothing about painting until I discovered Bob Ross on CZcams about 10 years ago. I'd listen to his stories and fall sound asleep with his voice. Back then I had insomnia. He helped me sleep like a baby and I started painting shortly after. His passion for painting really rubbed off. RIP 🙏 Such a Wonderful soul!
I loved watching and listening to Bob Ross. How those people could do what they’ve done is beyond me, and goes against everything I’m sure Bob wanted. I have some Bob Ross brushes, and painting knives, using them regularly . I wil not now EVER buy anything that will put money in those peoples pockets. I just hope Karma takes them - the way they used Bob and his family. God bless you Bob, and wherever you are, remember, Keep Painting.
I was literally amazed to see this video! I knew nothing about his private life of this "GREAT PAINTER - BOB ROSS"! For many years I have followed his videos to learn to paint with his style that I liked very much. I even bought various brushes, spatulas and colors to better follow his lessons. And after seeing this video I consider myself very lucky to still have the brushes, spatulas and colors of his series. And I will preserve them with great care and love in memory of this "GREAT MASTER"! I am very sorry that he spent a troubled life and that his Art was not appreciated as it deserved! 😟😪👍👍👍👋👋👋
Kowalskis need to have everything they stole seized and given to Bob's son Steve.
The Kowalskies were polar opposite to the great warm and charming Bob.
His show was the first thing i watched on satellite tv, i was instantly hooked, watching hours and hours of the joy of painting back to back.
Bobs gentile demeanor and absolute love of nature completely put me in a happy relaxing place, and i learned so much about art and how mistakes were bever made, only happy lil accidents. ...
Its terrible what those two horrible ppl did to bob and his family, un....forgivable...rip you absolutely legend.
Money always changes people from good to evil. At the end. They can’t take their money with them. They’ll face everything they’ve done to Bob and his family once they met their days.
Their greed is sickening
Bob Ross and his name and beautiful spirit WILL live on❤ His Legacy lives on and it’s shameful he and his family had to suffer from the greed of so called FRIENDS! Rest in Peace Bob Ross🙏🏻
Money brings out the worst in people and they will have to answer for their actions on Judgment Day 🙏🏻
This sickens me that he and his family were treated so bad.
Bob such a gentle human being-- certainly did not deserve the Kawasaki’s -- parasitic behaviour on his death bed -- Bob happy little trees❤❤❤
Sadly, you cannot trust anyone…what a shame…
Lesson taught, don't pick crooked Poles as partners
it’s all honesty n trusts untill money surfaced…..
I really appreciate an loved all his paintings. I hate he left us he was one of my greatest artists he was just fantastic and I ❤him very much.
His son had to give them every single painting he had. They're some really bad people.
Greed Greed Why not compromise? they would not anything without Bob!
May Bob ..RiP .!
A real talent..
Created masterpieces ,..!
Bob was too nice and was taken advantage of.....he was a great guy ...god rest his soul.
Don't give money to the Kowalski, and don't buy anything that they are trying to sell.
Bob Ross was a G
Another greedy Group trying to profit off the Mastership of a True Genuine Artist.
Bob was an inspiration.
After watching this video, I would never buy the products. What a shame, for a wonderful man who gave joy to so many people. I actually learned to paint watching him back in the 80s. Wanda Waite PEI, Ca
It sickens me that they treated him so badly and I won't spend one penny for them. How sad.
I will boycott all those who can be so heartless and greedy as the Kowalskis and family greed is a horrible disease
Yes, the Kowalsky family is very greedy and they will get there just as God will see to that. I wonder if they’re still living and what their life is like right now as far as the daughter she’s probably cut out of the same cloth and she will do everything she can to make her life easier. I am sure, what is one thing I do know is that Bob Ross loved everything God created and that’s why he was such a great artist because he had that special gift but God granted him thank God I got to witness him painting sitting next to my mom, who was also an artist
I remember when I first thought I might try painting. It was a fantasyland painting. Had little creatures I called unibear or maybe he did, a large outcropping with a waterfall and a lake. And some different planets in the sky.
They are evil!
Er wird bis zum Ende meines Lebens ein Highlight für mich sein❤
These kowalskis family are money grabbing liars
LOVE YOU BOB ROSS AND FAMILY.. YOUR DAD BROUGHT SO MUCH HAPPINESS AND WONDER INTO OUR HOMES
THANK YOU BOB
REST IN PEACE
GOD HAS YOU MAN
Bob's son should sue the Kowalski's.
Shame Shame on you!!!😢😢😢 Bob Ross was a great loving man. You will pay for that.
J'ai découvert Bob Ross il y a quelques années maintenant, j'ai été époustouflée par son talent et sa technique, je suis peintre aussi, mais ma technique devait s'améliorer.
C'est grâce à Bob Ross que j'ai progressé et même dans la technique aquarelle car le principe,si il est bien compris,s'applique également.
Sans connaître cette escroquerie minable, inqualifiable et morbide,
Quand je regarde ses vidéos j'ai pleuré. Son charisme m'a beaucoup touchée ❤❤❤.
J'ai réalisé de ses peintures et j'en suis fière ❤.
Tout mon soutien va pour sa famille ❤.
J'espère que justice sera rendue, que Dieu accorde le doux repos à Bob que j'admire de tout cœur ❤️.
J'aimerais tant voir ses peintures en vrai ❤.
J'ai lu que certaines de ses œuvres sont cotées en bourse.
J'espère que le famille voit enfin le jour dans cette triste fin❤
N'oubliez pas de nous tenir informés, j'y tiens, merci pour cette révélation.❤❤❤❤
The Kowalski couple are evil horrible people and I will never buy anything that is connected to them or their family…. I love how Bob was such a gentle soul and his paintings are amazing ❤ I pray that the Kowalski’s have karma bite them in the you know what
I will never ever put money in these people's greedy pockets. I PRAY one day Steve Ross will win this battle brought about by the greed of these people.
Money and greed is so damn ugly. Money truly is the root of all evil. RIP Bob.
The Ross family needs to sue to own the name , likeness and all things pertaining to Bob Ross paintings. Ask for a jury trial.
God given talent Bob created all that beautiful artwork and it should have benefited his family immensely but the most horrible part of the story is the way he was harassed and persecuted after being so sick by his money grabbing greedy partners. Shame on them all.😢
Sad.... Greed!
One can only hope Joans intentions are honorable,🤔they seem to be, time will tell won't it?
Mr Bob Ross 😢❤Watched him every day, you could just feel his energy.Blessings to his families and all that loved him 🌈✌️🐞
I'm an artist and love Bob,seen products with his name and likeness logo,never will I buy such products
It's sad to know that people like this couple basically choose Greed over Bob Ross and his family. Shame, shame, shame on these old couple. Nothing last forever and I would like to see their company "in chapter 11"....
Bob was a wonderful man ❤❤❤
RIP Bob. I haven't watch the movie, bought any of the supplies, only thought of Bob for who he truly was. They only cared about themselves and pray their daughter doesn't end up like them and ruin more of Bob's reputation for who he was.
This makes me ashamed to buy anything Bob Ross related in the modern day now
Inhaling cigarette smoke ruined his health. Had he quit, he possibly would be alive to win in court. People dont think about getting a will, trust etc together usually until they or their spouse are sick; although it is a wise thing to do especially if you are in a business arrangement with other people! Hopefully other people can learn from this.
What a terrible thing to do to his family. They are no better than thieves who steal candy from the family owned neighborhood store.
Bob Ross was a big influence on my painting
The Ross Family could of filed for a cease and desist order regarding the on going legal harassment.
This other Family is the pinnacle of Greed, this is why Bureaucracies are so dangerous it gives rise to
Greedy entitled behaviors like this
Family.
The one thing they can never do is
Take away Bob's message and inspirational way of being.
May the Greed of that Family be its downfall and The Ross Family See Justice Served.
i bought a Bob Ross theme Energy Drink at 5&Below,,, now i realize that was probably marketed by these monsters
Well I'm a new recruit. I loved Bob Ross since the late 80s never knew his legacy was stolen the wicked kowaiski witch family.
The Create TV channel still airs Bob Ross painting videos, which I'm glad. But what I dislike, is the use of the Bob Ross name and brand, even the name of the program with another painter. The other painter is not Bob Ross, and no one can ever fill beloved Bob Ross shoes. Create TV ought to change the name of the TV show when they use a different artist. Shame on Annette Kowalski and her family for stealing from a gentle trusting man, and an even greater crime for harassing him in his final moments.
I wish I had know this before I purchased some of Bob Ross brushes as I have found they are not the quality I was expecting. Now I understand it is no longer a quality brush Bob himself would recommend.it’s all about the money! 😢
I wish Amazon, and walmart would not sell the products unless Bob Ross family receives what they should always had to begin with.
I have adored Bob Ross for years and it kills me to have found out years ago about the Kowalski's. I havent bought ANYTHING carrying his name because of them. It really hurts my heart knowing that even one cent goes into THEIR coffers!! They took so much joy from me and others like me!! Their greed is cruel and disgusting!!!! But..., I believe in karma. What goes around comes around and I sincerely pray it bites them HARD!!!!!
So annette Kawowski did something like this….she goes to , lets say, john lennons sons and says I will need u to sign over your dads music rights as we need to make a memorial for him when he dies.
How I loved Bob Ross,
The love of money is the root of all evil.
