Four years later, the old guy in Afro and bellbottoms wins using old school paint.

Surely there has to be brush settings and layer qualities that can be set up to better simulate painting on a wet white-washed canvas?

The problem with digital art is it's so precise, everything comes out looking like a cartoon or anime. Don't get me wrong, there has been some great digital artworks, it's just a different medium, like pastels are different.

what temperature would you say is too hot to take them out? i’m from nyc and would like to take my frenchie to the beach but i’m worried it will be too hot even with cooling gear and water. would love your opinion! 🫶🏾

And when you think the dude couldn't be any cooler... pocket squirrels.

Watching Bob Ross paint is free therapy.

Since she is a Disney Artist why she is still allowed to use White? 🤷‍♂

Thanks for this, I react the same way watching Bob. Made my day...

Hi, Do Frenchies allow you to trim their claws? I had a dog that had to be anesthetized to get his claws clipped. Found out later that his breed is known for that.

Several of his paintings showed up on a recent Antiques Roadshow from Alaska (where he got his start). They were appraised for around $15,000 each, I think. I mean, it’s hotel room art, but who wouldn’t want a Bob Ross original?! 😂

I was bit disappointed that Laura didnt have a pocket squirrel. Well i guess the dog counts.

Hi! Can you update us in what insurance you got? 🥰

Sometimes I think Bob Ross was the coolest human who ever lived.

You did better than I expected. So you get a follow at least.

Are traditional arts useful for visual development in animations? Hello! You don't know me and you probably won't even see this message. But I'm a Visual Arts student who started to be interested in Visual Development and would like to have a chance to work in this area. The problem is that I only work with traditional arts... With collections, crayons and paints, you know? Do you think there is still room for this in the animation development market? I started this message with a question just to get your attention and I hope to achieve that. If you see this message, I am very grateful for your help 🥺❤️

Not sure why the algorithm fed me this video, but I'm really glad it did. This was really cool to watch. Thank you for sharing

Watching the Irish Tryers do this was quite funny. Great job Laura.

Get some fabric in your room - carpet, drapes, tapestries, something - right now it's an echo chamber.

I don't think canvas painting tips or demonstrations translate well into digital art

You're a lefty. Hot.

Not as easy as it looks. Even at the beginning, of the painting, there isn't the blending, with the computer, you get with a brush.

Laura did a pretty good job of copying what was Bb was creating out of nothing!

Kind of feels sacrilegious to do a Bob Ross painting digitally. Part of the aesthetic is the brush, the paint, the whole physical nature of it all. Bob was ASMR before there was ASMR. That aside, I absolutely love “beating the devil” out of the monitor. Very nice reproduction in the end, just a different medium.

Hey Laura!! I adore your videos and have watched them for years. I just got accepted into an animation school in Canada (I live in the uk) and I’m wondering what are your thoughts on pursuing animation at this time? I keep hearing that it’s gone downhill in terms of finding work/ short contracts and more risky than ever. Is it really this bad atm? Is it better to peruse a more stable career in psychology over here in the uk with art on the side, or should I pursue my dream? Just want to get a professional pov. Now I’ll go rewatch/study your speedpaints haha

Yuck. It looks like something out of a catalog, not something lived in. Cost Plus on steroids. You're like our next-door neighbor who has turned his version of our early 80's redwood modern into generic suburban blah. It's going to look super old-fashioned about five years from now. Funny, I remember a cool designer in LA in the 90's who had a French Bulldog and barely anyone had ever heard of the breed--now they're 10 a penny. But your poor dogs, no actual dirt to dig in or snuffle around in--they don't know they're designer animals.

That’s really amazing! I thought I was doing good just creating a few of those with oils back in the day, but what you achieved was amazing. I never would have thought you could duplicate the wet on wet technique digitally. Great job!

Fxck the kowalskis

Luv'd it. Great job. I'm jelly and wish I could paint like him.

"...that make you happy" *giggles*

Very informative .i recently got my Frenchie. A lot of what you tell me I knew. I feed mine Dr.M’s dried food which she loves. She is difficult to walk as I must walk her I. Yard because my fence slats she escapes through.

Your painting looks as good as his! I have no idea how you did that digitally!

That small chuckle when you both paint in the first trees. Bob Ross is a gem to me because he is so calm and collected and focuses on the joy of creation rather than focusing on what he paints.

The word ARTIST and DISNEY have no connection at all ever since the 1990s. More like DISNEY and METH ADDICTS. But I am glad to hear you are actually trying to draw for real. But then again you are using a computer to render what Bob is doing, which is cheating. Go back to the Disney meth lab.

I wish Bob had lived long enough to see this digital form of painting. I'm so curious as to what he would think of it.

I know I am late to this, but great work!. If Bob Ross where still with us, I am sure he would love to see this. He used to say, "You can almost paint with anything. All you got to do is practice."

Hey, I don't care how good yours looks until you've done it with paints, brushes Nad on a canvas like Mr. Ross. Until you do that I don't give a crap about yours.

I just came across your videos and I was amazed because I always wanted to be myself, but I’m colorblind and that doesn’t help. Lol.

Every time I see Bob I can’t help but to try and see him as a member of the special forces in our military and I never can! Then again I knew many army rangers from Hunter army airfield and Fort Stewart while living in Savannah and a lot of them nobody would ever guess that they were special forces.

I always wanted photoshop to have sound effects because I wanted Bob as a kid and I wanted to hear the brush strokes like his did! So I ended up always making the sound myself the whole time I was getting my graphics art degree

Sooo enjoyable!!

I watched a video about the unfortunate and stressful situation that Bob had when he started a business contract with a couple named the Kowalskis. to formBob Ross Inc. All the couple cared about was merchandise and profit. Poor Bob died from cancer. As per their original agreement if he died the money would go to the other owners not Bob’s family.

I always find it entertaining to watch artists pausing Mr. Ross's videos to catch up. ROFL Bob rocks.

Somebody needs to make a tutorial on how to paint Bob Ross

Happy little pixels

Well, working for disney you may soon need a new job.

Home office needs better sound dampening. 🙂 Beautiful job on the artwork.

I would like to know why all the satanic symbolism is accepted and thrown in our faces in movies and childrens movies and cartoons. How many all-seeing eyes do we need to see, etc. If I was an artist and asked to draw up molek, baale, ashtar, dagon false liitle fallen angel worship. I'd say no way you can stick this job where the sun doesn't shine. But Hellywood just can't help itself now can it. Even in children's cartoons. All will be held responsible. All witchcraft, curses and spells will be prayed away as well in Jesus name, amen.

Yoru painting looked pretty good .

Neil Breen would be impressed with the disregard for the monitor!

Watching something digital trying to copy a physical medium was a mixture of anxiety causing and hilarious.
