Best of the Joy of Painting
The late Bob Ross delights and encourages the painting hobbyist in The Best of the Joy of Painting. In these episodes selected from a vast library, soft-spoken host Ross paints his trademark "happy" clouds, mountains and trees, while soothingly offering words of encouragement to those painting along at home. He shares his "wet-on-wet" technique for painting natural scenes that incorporate cliffs, waterfalls, green valleys and seascapes.
