Question

Help answer this question below.

What was the name of that artist on TV? Big afro, talked in a whisper. He could paint a masterpiece in 20 minutes. Used to say things like " happy little trees". If you know who I'm talking about, can you tell me if he is still alive?

    Cowgirls Dont Cry-Well Maybe Sometimes

    Bob Ross
    (29 October 1942 – 4 July 1995)
    Here are some of the things you may remember him saying. I loves his show. He was funny and amazingly talented painter.

    That'll be our little secret.

    In painting, you have unlimited power. You have the ability to move mountains. You can bend rivers. But when I get home, the only thing I have power over, is the garbage.

    Remember our Golden Rule: A thin paint sticks to a thick paint.

    And that makes it look like birch trees, isn't that sneaky? Heh. Ha. It's gorgeous.

    You know me, I gotta put in a big tree.

    Here's your bravery test!

    Almost always before putting in a big tree.

    Gotta give him a friend. Like I always say 'everyone needs a friend'.

    We don't know where it goes. We don't really care.

    After painting in a path or snow drift.

    Any time ya learn, ya gain.

    Any way you want it to be, that's just right.

    As my son Steve says, just 'smoosh' it in there.

    It's not a real word, but people seem to know what it means.

    Be sure to use odorless paint-thinner. If it's not odorless, you'll find yourself working alone very, very quick.

    Let's just blend this little rascal here, ha! Happy as we can be.

    Clouds are very, very free.

    Just put a few do-ers in there...

    Decide where your little footy hills live.

    Haha, and just beat the devil out of it.

    I like to beat the brush.
    You can use a brush rack to hit the brush on.

    u went over it with blue, you would end up with a .. with a translucent... green. And it's gorgeous. It is GORGEOUS.

    If you did this with blue, and you went over it with yellow, you would end up with a nice green sky.

    Just lightly blend it, one hair and some air.

    Tender as a mothers love... And with my mother, that was certainly true.

    Let's do a little cabinectomy here.

    Oh, you'd be in Agony City by now.

    Said when he describes his paint method being used incorrectly.

    Just scrape in a few indications of sticks and twigs and other little things in there. People will think you spend hours doing this.

    Never saw a man do such great work with a 4 in. wide paintbrush who wasn't painting a room.

    Bob Ross was the man !
