Bob Ross was the iconic host of "The Joy of Painting." Take time to appreciate the man behind the canvas with the famously calm demeanor. Learn about his signature "alla prima" (wet-on-wet) painting technique, which, combined with his use of Liquid White, made it possible to complete a masterpiece in under 30 minutes and made painting accessible to millions. The discussion also covers fascinating details, such as how his iconic perm was a cost-saving measure he disliked but kept for his brand, and the incredible fact that he produced an estimated 30,000 paintings in his lifetime.
Delve into the business-savvy philosophy of Bob Ross, who never earned a salary from his beloved PBS show, instead using it to promote his successful line of art supplies and certified instructors. Uncover personal details, like the teenage carpentry accident that cost him part of a finger and his deep love for animals, often featuring rescued squirrels and other wildlife on his show. From the minimalist studio in a Muncie, Indiana home to his core belief in "happy little accidents," Bob Ross turned a simple painting show into an enduring cultural phenomenon built on kindness, creativity, and happy little trees.
