I know there have been threads about him before, but my god, Bob Ross is the greatest person to ever live.



I just watched an episode of the Joy of painting, and, I swear, it's a free high. I am more relaxed than I could possibly be, and I was freakin entranced by trees, and mountains. I mean, in 27 minutes, he makes an entire landscape come to life as you watch.
His voice is both comforting, and relaxing.
He talks with such assurance, and says the greatest things. The world is a happy place where there are no mistakes, only happy accidents.

I made the last Bob Ross thread.

Yeah, he was great. So soothing. Everything was ok with the world when he paints.

Don't be sad faced, there's nothing wrong with being necrophiliac art connoisseur.

Wow really?  Isn't that like the 'manly' channel?  I wouldn't expect painting to fall into that category.

Bob Ross was the man. I wonder if there are any torrents or DVD's of his shows out there.
