The
Joy of Painting
The Joy of Painting was an American television show hosted by Bob
Ross that taught viewers how to complete a painting of a landscape
in thirty minutes. The show was broadcast on PBS (produced at WIPB
in Muncie, Indiana) and developed a cult following.
Each show began with Ross standing alone in a dark room in front
a blank canvas. Over thirty minutes, Ross would turn the blank canvas
into an imaginary landscape. His efforts were accompanied by a soothing
monologue about the "happy clouds" and "happy trees"
that he was creating with his brush.
Despite the death of Ross, the show continues to be broadcast and
a multi-million dollar spin-off business bearing Ross' name sells
art accessories related to the show.
The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes
that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the
world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even
draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend
to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces
can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from
the existing paintings.h
