mind the walrus posted:He practiced doing them again and again before recording episodes. He had chops he wasn't some improv master. It followed the format of: he would paint a painting off camera, then he would paint it on camera looking at the one he painted earlier as a reference (this is what you see on twitch), and then he would paint a third version of the painting and they'd take pictures of brush strokes and stuff for his instructional material that his company sold. PBS didn't pay him for the show. He did it for free. Bob Ross gave away all his on-show paintings to PBS and almost never sold his personal paintings. Bob Ross really grew to dislike the afro but kept it anyway because he's a relatively savvy businessman and figured without it his show would lose popularity. He even put it on the packaging of his paints and art supplies. Bob Ross was in the air force for twenty years. Bob Ross really liked wild life and would record squirrels in his yard, and he was going to do a show exposing people to the wonders of woodland creatures but then he died instead.

coolskillrex remix posted:Pretty sure he taped several episodes in a single day. No rehearsals or editing he's just painted those exact paintings hundreds of times in malls and poo poo (i think he had a roadshow) He really did do multiple episodes in a day, and the painting really was a single painting in the episodes. He did use the first painting as a reference, like he'd look over at it, and I'm sure they cut that out. But yeah, he really could churn these out in under an hour.
