I learn...yes, I loved Bob Ross, and miss him still. I learned Landscape composition, to put bluer colors in the background, layering features for depth, putting a big tree in front, even if it covers a favorite part that you worked hard on, that you don't need to paint every leaf or blade of grass, trees are not lollipops, and many more things. My husband was the painter, but I think I learned so much more to apply to my fabric collages. Thanks for this reminder Nina-Marie.Amy Art Quilter & Fyber Cafehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11676682258155326783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364828980944336570.post-90616596107022919172016-07-17T06:33:00.168-04:002016-07-17T06:33:00.168-04:00Okay, I loved to watch him paint, but it was his v...Okay, I loved to watch him paint, but it was his voice that was alluring. I think he taught a whole generation of us patience, and how to observe quietly. The narrative was sparse enough that you couldn't carry on a conversation while watching--you had to be attentive! Where have these shows gone? Now it's one graphic after the next.<br /><br />Thank you for the Netflix tip here, too. I appreciate that.<br /><br />Julie Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834496271292973632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364828980944336570.post-9331602805750005912016-07-16T09:58:36.980-04:002016-07-16T09:58:36.980-04:00That is awesome - I remember my Grandpa wishing he...That is awesome - I remember my Grandpa wishing he could paint like him and his shows always being on at his houseAlycia~Quiltygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16283575876006453806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364828980944336570.post-46147355997973766642016-07-15T19:44:47.382-04:002016-07-15T19:44:47.382-04:00He is still on here in Baton Rouge, mesmerizing me...He is still on here in Baton Rouge, mesmerizing me with his style! <br /><br />Do you remember Jon Gnagy? He was the original TV Painter. Santa brought me a Jon Gnagy shading pen and stump one year. No instructions, or anything, just the pen and stump. I sure wish I had learned how to use it somehow.......Glen QuiltSwissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663112676927847239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364828980944336570.post-86354799985257572952016-07-15T13:39:35.735-04:002016-07-15T13:39:35.735-04:00I used to watch him with my kids.

We purchase paint and canvas to do more during our 2 month winter stay on the beach. So relaxing to paint on the beach. He is still on our local PBS (which we can't get), but we pull up his videos online and recently also watch on Netflix just to be immersed in the "Joy" of his show. Thanks so much for sharing these interesting background facts.JOY @ http://joysjotsshots.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/03560982218076503012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364828980944336570.post-37815533542929477952016-07-15T10:53:33.223-04:002016-07-15T10:53:33.223-04:00Didn't know he was on Netflix - I will watch a...Didn't know he was on Netflix - I will watch as I love his shows.
