For Immediate Release August 15, 2018 Contact: Joan Kowalski, Joan@Bobross.Com For Immediate Release August 15, 2018 Contact: Joan Kowalski, [email protected] Bob Ross Incorporated is pleased to announce the advancement of two predominant innovators in the art materials industry. Doug Hallgren was capping off a twenty-three year career with US Airways when he got bit by the painting bug, thanks to Bob Ross. In 2003 he became a Bob Ross certified instructor for landscapes, florals and wildlife, then started teaching regular painting classes at his local Michaels store in Phoenix. In 2007, Doug accepted a position with Bob Ross Inc., as manager and Certified Teacher Trainer at the Bob Ross Art Workshop and Gallery in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, certifying over 1,000 teachers during his tenure at the workshop. “Bob Ross completely changed my world,” Doug confesses. “How many of us get the chance to make that kind of a difference in that many people’s lives. Bob has been on my shoulder every step of the way.” In 2019, Doug will begin a new chapter working for Bob Ross Distribution -- a division of Bob Ross Inc. -- as Product Specialist and Specifications Analyst. In addition to overseeing testing and maintenance of the uniquely formulated Bob Ross product line, he will also impart his motivational skills and teaching acumen into the industry to grow the Bob Ross phenomenon globally. He is already slated to develop a TED Talk early next year. Nicholas "Nic" Hankins, trade show powerhouse and prolific instructor, has accepted the position as new Bob Ross Certified Teacher Trainer and manager of the Bob Ross Art Workshop and Gallery in 2019. Nic has enjoyed a life-long passion for art, inspired by the creative talents of his father, Jerry, and encouraged by both of his parents since the "crayon days". Oil painting became the focus of Nic's creative energies during the summer of 1993 when he discovered, "The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross", and began painting along with Ross' public television instructional program. Nic pursued a career in the visual arts field during high school, then earning a B.F.A. in Studio Art from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 2005. It was then that he began teaching painting classes in retail stores during weekends to offset college expenses, then travel-teaching as demand for his classes grew. Over the past 20 years Nic has enjoyed teaching in his native East Tennessee, across the country and around the world, as far afield as Taiwan. “I relish the opportunity to share Bob’s Joy of Painting with anyone who expresses the desire to become a Bob Ross teacher,” says Nic. For more information about the Bob Ross Teacher Certification Program, his trademark painting supplies, or these two fine gentlemen, please contact us at 1-800-BOB-ROSS. .

  • Bykelly Crow Herndon, Va. Over the Past Few Years, Younger Artists Who Aren't As Concerned with Distinctions Between Highbrow
    By Kelly Crow Aug. 21, 2018 11:28 a.m. ET Herndon, Va. Bob Ross achieved pop-culture fame as the bushy-haired public-television host of “The Joy of Painting” in the 1980s. Now artists and fans are attempting to secure a spot in art history for him as well. Over the past few years, younger artists who aren’t as concerned with distinctions between highbrow and lowbrow have started making pieces inspired by Mr. Ross, who died in 1995. Others, who have only now rediscovered him through online reruns, are starting to organize shows of their own to persuade the art establishment to give him a closer look. They have been joined by more than 3,000 “Certified Ross Instructors”— people who have studied his oil-painting methods so they can teach them to the masses. Even Bob Ross Inc., the artist’s warehouse headquarters in Herndon, Va., that lines up the certification workshops, has pivoted from merely selling his paint supplies and approving licenses for T-shirts, wigs and waffle-makers—the batter cooks into the shape of Mr. Ross’s head—to making appeals to museums like the Smithsonian’s American Art Museum to put his originals on display. “See these? Aren’t they fantastic?” Joan Kowalski, Bob Ross Inc.’s president, said at the warehouse, as she rifled through a stack of the artist’s landscapes in an otherwise spartan office. The company moved to an industrial complex called Renaissance Park near Dulles International Airport, a year ago, Ms. Kowalski said, and her workers haven’t yet had time to hang them.

  • Bob Ross's First Museum Show Aims to Change His Reputation
    AiA Art News-service Happy little clouds: Bob Ross’s first museum show aims to change his reputation Group show will help the 1980s TV painter move from kitsch king to conceptual pioneer JASON FOUMBERG 3rd May 2019 14:28 BST Bob Ross, Reflections (1983) as seen on The Joy of Painting, Season 2, Episode 8® Bob Ross name and images are registered trademarks of Bob Ross Inc. © Bob Ross Inc. used with permission Why has it taken art museums so long to show the work of Bob Ross, the late, legendary 1980s TV painter beloved by millions? A new group show in Chicago is aiming to change that and move Ross’s evaluation from the king of kitsch to a conceptual artist. New Age, New Age: Strategies for Survival, at the DePaul Art Museum in Chicago (until 11 August), positions Ross not as a mere novelty but as the forefather of a newer self-help trend in contemporary art. Four oil landscapes created by Ross for his Joy of PaintingTV show are exhibited alongside works by Rashid Johnson, Tony Oursler, Mai-Thu Perret, Robert Pruitt and others. “Put aside your prejudices of Bob Ross and think of him as a true artist,” says the museum’s director and curator Julie Rodrigues Widholm, who likens the painter’s reputation to Frida Kahlo’s. “I’ve been interested in his [cultural] ubiquity yet distance from the art world.” Rodrigues Widholm’s curatorial provocation takes aim at art museums and the market to confront biases of taste, class and the practice of art therapy.

  • Yet Another Statistical Analysis of Bob Ross Paintings
    Yet Another Statistical Analysis of Bob Ross Paintings Christopher Steven Marcum, PhD National Institutes of Health December 9, 2015 Abstract In this paper, we analyze a sample of clippings from paintings by the late artist Bob Ross. Previous work focused on the qualitative themes of his paintings (Hickey, 2014); here, we expand on that line of research by considering the colorspace and luminosity values as our data. Our results demonstrate the subtle aesthetics of the average Ross painting, the common variation shared by his paintings, and the structure of the relationships between each painting in our sample. We reveal, for the first time, renderings of the average paintings and introduce “eigen- ross” components to identify and evaluate shared variance. Additionally, all data and code are embedded in this document to encourage future research, and, in the spirit of Bob Ross, to teach others how to do so. Keywords: art, Bob Ross, paintings, linear subspace 1 Introduction Painter Bob Ross (1942–1995) was an icon of American art education. For over a decade, his television program, The Joy of Painting, taught and entertained millions of Americans tuning in to the half-hour show on PBS. In the course of his art career, Ross is estimated to have painted upward of 25, 000 paintings. As a master of the Alexander “wet-on-wet” oil painting technique, Ross’s iconic “happy” clouds, mountains, streams, and, of course, trees were laid down on canvas in a matter of seconds. Recently, his set of paintings became the subject of a popular blog post titled “A Statistical Analysis of the Work of Bob Ross” by Walt Hickey on Nate Silver’s pop-stat site fivethirtyeight.com.

  • If That's Art Then I'm a Hottentot
    Southern New Hampshire University “If That’s Art Then I’m a Hottentot!”: American Art’s Divorce From the American People A Capstone Project Submitted to the College of Online and Continuing Education in Partial Fulfillment of the Master of Arts in History By Timothy F. Loraditch Londonderry, NH September 2018 i ii Copyright © 2018 by Timothy F. Loraditch All Rights Reserved iii Student: Timothy F. Loraditch I certify that this student has met the requirements for formatting the capstone project and that this project is suitable for preservation in the University Archive. December 12, 2018 __________________________________________ _______________ Southern New Hampshire University Date College of Online and Continuing Education iv Abstract In the second half of the twentieth-century American Art experienced significant changes. Despite the rapid development of modernism in Europe, American Artists continued in a very representative style of painting. After World War II and with the advent of the Cold War came the rise of the Abstract Expressionist artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Robert Motherwell. These artists painted in a new style that was not at all representative and was not understood by large segments of the American population. This new style of American Art was called Abstract Expressionism and it came to dominate the international art scene and change the direction of American Art. During the Great Depression many American were out of work and the WPA’s Federal Arts Project, paid many artists just to paint. These WPA artists benefitted from the opportunity to be paid by the government to work without regard to marketability, patron expectations or even personal financial needs.

  • Bob Ross the "Happy Painter" (Click on Picture Above)
    August 2019 - 3S Art Newsletter Video about the life of Bob Ross the "Happy Painter" (Click on picture above) Who is Bob Ross? You’ve probably seen him - he's the quiet soft-spoken guy with the fuzzy afro hair painting mountains and trees with big brushes in a matter of seconds. Bob Ross is public television's most beloved personality. I remember seeing Bob Ross on TV and being totally amazed by his painting skills and how he made oil painting seem so simple. He was soft spoken and created beautiful paintings while he showed you the progression of building an oil painting from the background to the fore ground. You actually watched the painting materialize before your eyes as he explained how he did it along the way. He made you believe you could do it too. Could the "Happy Painter" be a drill sergeant in the military? Bob Ross said about himself, "I was the guy who makes you scrub the latrine, the guy who makes you make your bed, the guy who screams at you for being late to work. The job requires you to be a mean, tough person. And I was fed up with it. I promised myself that if I ever got away from it, it wasn't going to be that way anymore." Bob Ross, aka Robert Norman Ross, (born October 29, 1942, Daytona Beach, Florida, U.S.—died July 4, 1995 (53 yrs old), New Smyrna Beach, Florida), painter and television personality whose popular PBS television show The Joy of Painting (1983–94) made him a household name as the painting teacher to the masse.
