I just saw a full episode of his show. The fuck? I’m not a painter but I’ve seen my mom paint all my life.
This motherfucker just did in 15 minutes what would take her weeks. Like???
And he did it while talking, in clean fucking strokes. So fucking fast. I saw a literal masterpiece being created in fifteen minutes from nothing. From nothing. It was a blank fucking canvas, man.
I knew of Bob Ross, but I’d never actually seen him paint. Goddamn. How did actual artists react to him? Like, how do you not feel just thoroughly outclassed.
All while this mofo is saying how easy all that he’s doing is while I know for a fact how hard it is. Like, is he just gaslighting everyone?
No I don’t think he was gaslighting everyone…I don’t know too much about his personal life so if he like murdered someone then let me know lol but otherwise he seems like he genuinely wanted to bring calmness and good vibes to people’s lives. Like if many people wanted to paint but just thought they couldn’t, I think he was saying hey once you get the hang of this (particular efficient way of painting), it’s not so hard and anyone can do it. Seems like a really inclusive dude. I loved watching him a few years ago
