About

The Joy of Painting was an American television show hosted by painter Bob Ross that taught its viewers techniques for landscape oil painting. Although Ross could complete a painting in half an hour, the intent of the show was not to teach viewers "speed painting". Rather, he intended for viewers to learn certain techniques within the time that the show was allotted. The show began on January 11, 1983, and lasted until May 17, 1994, a year before Ross' death.
Soft whispers and the rhythmic rhythmic tapping of a brush turn every episode into a meditative sanctuary. You will find unexpected peace in the steady transformation of blank canvases into lush, happy little forests.
