  Nothing beats Bob Rosses "The Joy of Painting" though.  That soft voice gets me every time LOL

Another BR fan! The man was one incredibly talented artist. We recently visited his Gallery in New Smyrna Beach and was amazed at the quality of the detail he put on canvas with a metal pallet and a 3" brush. The paintings look great on tv but are incredible when actually seen.

Awesome!   I watch/listen to his episodes on YouTube while I work on models. I aways enjoy the episodes with his son; he paints just like his dad. I would LOVE to see his gallery or even one of his paintings in person!   He uses his 3" brush in ways I would have never thought of.

I spent a while talking to the gentleman tending the gallery. It's really a place where students gather to learn his techniques and display their work. There are lots of great paintings on display from different students.

 I saw one of his son's paintings and like you said paints like his late dad. I was told his son has not painted for a while and apparently is not involved in the art like his dad was.

I was born in 89 so chances are I missed this show, but remembering watching shows similar growing up. Saw some of the clips on YouTube and will admit it's definitely dated, but fun to watch none the less.
