I love art and I always have, and my dad introduced me to this show when I was really young =) Bob inspired me to paint HAHA
I used to watch his show all the time, and I recently started downloading his show, and wow, he is just amazing. He paints so quickly and makes it look so easy...
I've always wanted one of those Bob Ross paint sets, but my parents didn't buy me one =( HAHA

One of his paintings:

So, who else watched this show?

P.S. - I love his fro...He's the only white man that I know that pulls off the fro well IMO =D

Awww I used to wake up at 9 in the morning on Saturdays just to watch him. I don't know why I loved watching him. Happy tree.. maybe that tree has a friend.. and maybe a squirrel lives here... haha maybe that's why. There's always a story to his paintings. What did he call his mistakes? Happy mistakes or something?

I've grew up watching the shows.

Starsstrewn, yeah he called them happy mistakes. Anthropomorphizing or something like that.

Even now, after all these years, he has a refreshing outtake and technical aspect on his work. Absolute genius.
