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 is known for producing beautiful landscapes, his soft-spoken demeanor, and bushy facial hair. Whenever anyone mentions the joy they get from painting, it's tough not to think of Ross smiling at a camera and filling hundreds of canvases with happy clouds, secret trees, and accidental bushes. Even if you aren't a student of art, putting on an episode of "The Joy of Painting" will lull anyone into a total state of serenity. What many people don't know is that one of the biggest influences on Ross's persona and painting technique was the twenty years he spent in the Air Force, especially his time as a drill sergeant
