| The Joy of Painting | comment |
The Joy of Painting is a half-hour art instruction show that originally ran on PBS and was hosted by Bob Ross, noted for his legendarily cheery manner and soft, friendly voice. The show aimed to teach people how to paint using a method for oil-based paints called "wet-on-wet painting", where the canvas would be coated with a wet base paint which other colors were laid over, allowing for a variety of blending techniques. The show was very minimalist, using only a black background and two camera positions. Due to his time spent being stationed in Alaska in the Air Force, all of Ross' paintings were nature landscapes, mostly forests or mountain valleys, but he'd also have "crazy days" where he'd do campfires, seascapes or other more atypical landscapes.The show began in 1983 and ended on May 17, 1994, due to Ross being diagnosed with cancer. His illness did not become known to the wider public until he passed away from it on July 4, 1995.Despite ending many years ago, the show has an official Twitch account that occasionally has repeated showings or marathons of the show, as well as an official YouTube channel. However, the Twitch account has begun inviting Certified Ross Instructorsnote Individuals who had completed a workshop course that has been certified by Bob to teach his painting style to livestream painting on camera as well; these livestreams are often broadcast on early Friday evenings prior to repeats of The Joy of Painting.Compare to Mister Rogers' Neighborhood for a similarly healing show with an endearing, easygoing, Nice Guy host.Parodies of his show are so popular that they have spawned their own trope, Bob Ross Rib. | |

Title Drop: Almost every episode includes the title of the program, such as "...and that is how you experience the joy of painting". He sometimes lampshaded the title drop as something they felt like they had to do. | |

Fingore: Ross lost part of his left index finger in an accident when he was young. The missing fingertip is noticeable when the camera focuses on his palette. | |

Verbal Tic | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_26d1f65f | comment |
The first season, which was produced by WNVC in Falls Church, Virginia instead of his long time home at WIPB in Muncie, Indiana, had a number of differences from later seasons. Ross had a fuller beard and wore large glasses, which made him look older than he was. His voice was also a little less relaxed and more instructive and loud in tone at first, and he had a tendency to overuse the adjective "almighty".note This was originally in honour of his instructor and mentor Bill Alexander, who used the word as a Verbal Tic on his own show. Ross stopped using it so much after he and Alexander had a falling out. Also, the show had background music and occasional cut edits. This was a pretty big difference from the real time and music-less version most people remember. | |

Limited Wardrobe: Other than the Early-Installment Weirdness of him wearing glasses in the first season, Ross deliberately kept his appearance and wardrobe the same throughout the entire run, so that he'd be recognizable and not noticeably different between seasons. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: The first season, which was produced by WNVC in Falls Church, Virginia instead of his long time home at WIPB in Muncie, Indiana, had a number of differences from later seasons. Ross had a fuller beard and wore large glasses, which made him look older than he was. His voice was also a little less relaxed and more instructive and loud in tone at first, and he had a tendency to overuse the adjective "almighty".note This was originally in honour of his instructor and mentor Bill Alexander, who used the word as a Verbal Tic on his own show. Ross stopped using it so much after he and Alexander had a falling out. Also, the show had background music and occasional cut edits. This was a pretty big difference from the real time and music-less version most people remember. For the first several seasons, near the end of the show, Bob would briefly go over what you would need to begin the next week's painting. He stopped this after a few seasons, probably because, as he noted in a later show, the production order wouldn't necessarily match the air date order. Early on, he would read the names of the paints he was going to use or it wasn't mentioned at all. Eventually, they were listed on screen at the start of the show. In the first few seasons, he referred to liquid white, the paint he used to make the canvas wet before beginning the painting, as "magic white." | |

Minimalism | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_549a92e7 | comment |
Minimalism: Ross didn't paint in this style, but the show itself fits the bill. The background behind the canvas was uniformly dark black, to keep focus on the canvas. Ross (or whoever else was painting that week) was uniformly the only person on the set during the entire runtime. The only props used were the painting tools and the canvas. Ross was also noted for spending hours picking what to wear because he didn't want to date the episodes. | |

Creator Thumbprint | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_5a22609e | comment |
Creator Thumbprint: Two things that Ross often mentioned were that most of his landscapes were influenced by his time spent in Alaska, and that his favorite part of painting was the end step of cleaning the brush: whacking the bristles against the leg of the easel. The latter was often followed by a comment about the mess it made and/or a caution to not do it at home lest you incur your wife's wrath. Drawing trees together since "everybody needs a friend". Speaking of trees, he loved to put a large tree in the foreground of his paintings, often obscuring large portions of the background that he'd spent several minutes painting. He said he sometimes got complaints from viewers that doing this "ruined" the painting. His response was that if they didn't like it, then they could leave it out when they did their own paintings. Many paintings have some sort of water in them, using several layers of paint to form the waves and colour layers. Nearly literally, when he signed his paintings (naturally). Very literally when he'd use finger-painting to create the moon in night paintings. | |

Drill Sergeant Nasty: It's hard to imagine from such a famously soft-spoken man, but he described himself as such while he was in the Air Force.note He retired at the rank of Master Sergeant. This became his major motivation for leaving, as he said he was tired of being mean all the time. | |

Accidental Good Outcome | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_8f4aa036 | comment |
Accidental Good Outcome: The line, "We don't make mistakes, we make happy little accidents," was practically creator and host Bob Ross's Author Catchphrase. While painting, he would frequently narrate how he goofed on something, and then show the audience how to improvise with the "happy accident" and use it to draw something else. | |

The Power of Creation: Though he had Alaska as an inspiration, Bob did not paint from life, but rather created his own landscapes. He expounded on the fact that there are no limits to what you can make, and "[the painting] is your world," creating the impression he was generating whole realities with his brush. He also liked to encourage the viewer to come up with stories for the landscapes they were painting, saying that it would make the painting more "real." | |

Mood Whiplash: Bob Ross is always pleasantly content, and always talks in a soothingly content tone. Even when he starts talking about the poor animals he and the animal lady have saved from near-death, about how a friend who runs a zoo that is free to the public has a terminal illness, and about how there are dark and bad times to contrast the bright and good times. Or how he's still waiting on the good times himself. | |

Catchphrase | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: To name a few... "From all of us here, I want to wish you happy painting and God bless, my friends." "Happy little ___", usually trees, clouds, or sky. While only said on the occasion, this stuck with viewers, especially "happy little trees". The official Bob Ross website even sells a shirt that says "happy trees". About once a season, at least, he'll explain how he told his son to get in tune with his painting ability: When cleaning his brush, "Just beat the devil out of it" along with a good-natured giggle. He would often remind the viewers of some central rules to his technique: "A thin paint will stick to a thick paint." Not thinning paints properly would lead to you "becoming a mud mixer." Similarly, pointing out that if you try one of his blending techniques on a dry canvas: "You will be in agony city." "There..." "This is your world."; said when encouraging viewers to improvise rather than copy his painting. "Everyone needs a friend."; said when adding a second tree/cloud/animal to his paintings. "No pressure." and "Two hairs and some air." referring to just barely letting the knife or brush touch the canvas when needed. "Let's have some fun." / "Let's get crazy." He would often refer to riskier strokes as "bravery tests." "Now then..." Anytime he transitioned from cleaning his brush to loading it up or doing something with the canvas (or any combination thereof) multiple times per episode. You'd be hard-pressed to find one where he doesn't say it. "There are no mistakes, just happy accidents." "...something about like 'at." | |

Perfectly Cromulent Word | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_bdbfd01c | comment |
Perfectly Cromulent Word: A "cabinectomy" is when a paint knife is used to cut off the bottom of a painted cabin, giving the image of the cabin having a foundation in the ground. "My son, Steve says, 'Just moosh it in there'. Nobody knows what it means, but they seem to understand." Often mentions that he'll put some "little do-ers" on the canvas. Whether this refers to rocks, bushes, grass, Happy Clouds®, etc. depends entirely on whatever he's thinking at the moment. His trees usually don't have roots — they have "foots". | |

| The Joy of Painting / int_e21faf11 | comment |
Friend to All Living Things: Ross was a really nice guy. This can't be stressed enough. He left his position in the Air Force because he didn't want to become "mean". He sometimes brought small animals on the show, as he usually took in injured ones he found. Ross wasn't too far off from the image in the linked trope page, as he once told of how he would release the animals he helped out into the wilds around his home in Florida, but they would stick around anyway, always coming back to his house. He said he would often leave food out for them. He once told a story about how he had raised some chickens as part of a project when he was in 4H as a kid. He was supposed to slaughter them in the end (4H helps train farmers, after all), but he couldn't bring himself to do it, because the chickens were his friends by that point. He said that as a result of that experience, he could never eat anything with chicken in it. | |

ASMR Video: A case can be made that it's the Ur-Example. The combination of Bob Ross's quiet, gentle narrating voice with the scrubbing sounds of paintbrushes on canvas fit the formula exactly, long before the trend was ever thought of. Many current ASMR creators intentionally pattern their videos after Ross's style. | |

True Art Is Angsty: Invoked only to be defied by Ross, who said, "We want happy paintings. Happy paintings. If you want sad things, watch the news." The show is called "The Joy of Painting", after all; what did you expect? | |

Once a Season | |
| The Joy of Painting / int_ff9e9dde | comment |
Once a Season: Every series would start with him welcoming us to another series of 13 episodes, and would finish with thanking us for watching it. At some point in the middle of the series, he would show us how to paint the image in the animated opening for the series. He would always stress that it wouldn't be an exact copy, as he never perfectly duplicated a painting. "Every series has to have a crazy painting. Maybe this will be that one." Steve didn't show up every season, but when he did, it was never more than once. | |
