Things You Never Knew about Bob Ross
Bob Ross was an accomplished painter, with a career spanning decades, but what the general public knows him for is his activity as an art instructor and television host. Bob Ross had an exciting life not only professionally – here are a few things you probably didn’t know about him:
- He created over 30 thousand paintings – some with the quick painting technique that he developed while in the military to be able to produce paintings to sell, others using a variety of other techniques.
- During his 20-year career in the military, he took quite a few odd jobs to earn more money, he even worked as a bartender for a while.
- He never painted people, not even signs of people.
- He was an excellent businessman – he recognized the power of marketing early on and he never received remuneration for being the host of The Joy of Painting, using the show in a subtle way to promote his own business of paints and brushes.
- He is featured in a mythology-based video game as a calm god with a peaceful attitude.
