Was it Bill Alexander? I found his name online.

I love Bob Ross and I took a course too. He was so soothing to watch. I liked him a lot.

yup! that's him

I watched him for YEARS. Peaceful background while nursing babies, I guess. That's how

it started, then I just had to watch on a regular basis. I get hooked on things like that.

THANX, Joselyn33

Welcome. I guess he taught Bob Ross everything and then got angry years later saying that Bob Ross stole his ideas and is making money off of it.

Yes. There was something off between them. Don't remember the details. Must look that up too!

He is on PBS now. I didn't know he passed away.

love Bob Ross!!! but he's not on the channel line-up tonite. there is a show about Velcro, the sloth, on Nature. Sloths sleep only 9 hours a night...less than was thought.

My mom learned how to paint using his DVDs. Loved his show. It was great for a stress relief.

We used to watch him at nap time. I loved that show. His happy little trees and squirrel friends

He made it look so easy. But there was always a feeling of drabness either in his studio or the paintings themselves. Did he pass away?

I remember seeing Donna Dewberry (wasn't she on QVC or HSN?) paint flowers with just a few strokes.

My granddaughter thought I was the greatest for drawing Dora The Explorer in chalk on her driveway today. Dora is easy to draw.
