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. -------------

I was only able to catch his show once, but I liked it a lot. What network was it on?

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.

This guy is the most happiest person I've ever seen. I found a waterfall video and this is what he said when he was drawing the stream part: "Maybe theres a little beaver under the water here...although this is a pretty fast river for a beaver...but maybe he's a fast beaver..." -------------

"We don't make mistakes. We have happy accidents." HAH! I wonder how many of our parents have said that? ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America. It is forced and the democrats are behind it, with the goal of eugenics at its foundation." -FreeEnterprise, 21 April 2011. Yup, he actually said that. |
