    :rose: The Joy of Painting

    I remember watching this very fondly. It's great that this was uploaded for all to see:

    http://www.openculture.com/2015/10/s...ee-online.html
    Aspiring painters, take note. As of today, you can watch Season 1 of The Joy of Painting, the PBS show hosted by painter Bob Ross. The educational show first hit the airwaves in January, 1983, and ran through May, 1994. In each 30-minute episode, Bob would complete a painting, while explaining in a soothing, hushed voice various techniques for creating landscape oil paintings.

    You can watch Episode 1 of Season 1 above. Here Bob “introduces us to his ‘Almighty’ assortment of tools and colors, tells us that anyone can paint, and creates a landscape of a forest path just after a rain shower.”

    Below, you can watch a playlist of 13 episodes. For some reason, the playlist starts with Episode 2, then flips back to Episode 1, and, from there, things unfold sequentially, straight through to Episode 13. #Free Art Education. Enjoy.

    Thank you, pablo!!!!

    I am one hype up metal head and few things relax me now. Ross, classical piano (only) and bagpipe music are the only things that soothe my mind. The EX took the piano and bagpipe CD's.

    Jon, there is some bagpipe music (Royal Scots Guards) on that thumb drive I left in the car. We just never got around to listening to it, for some reason.

    pablo - thank you for posting these! I am as far removed from painting/drawing myself as humanly possible - I cannot even draw a straight line between two points (yes, I am hopeless), but I am always fascinated by watching people do it, seemingly effortlessly.
    If you are going through hell - keep going

    Huh. Weird. This showed up in my YouTube feed yesterday.

    Yeah it's been a trending video because Bob is such a viral person all of a sudden now that his show's been streaming on YouTube in recent years. This video actually made me cry. It was beautiful.

    And if y'all didn't already know, even single episode (31 seasons from 1983 to 1994) are up on the official Bob Ross channel on YouTube:

    My goal is to eventually watch all 403.
