Many of us grew up with Bob Ross on television. Good old Ross would spend hours painting pictures in solitude, accompanied by a large white canvas and a camera. Today his legacy lives on thanks to Twitch and YouTube, where his show continues to be broadcast daily.
Bob Ross stood out for two things: his voice and his physical presence. Tall, with an affable face and long, curly hair. That’s why the artificial intelligence had little trouble imagining what the artist would look like with 100 years behind him.
The artist who conquered television
Bob Ross was a famous American painter and television host, born in 1942 and died in 1995. He is famous for his television show The Joy of Painting, which aired on the American public television network PBS from 1983 to 1994.
Ross became known for his calm and relaxed style of teaching painting with watercolors and oils. His technique focused on creating landscapes and still lifes, and he emphasized the importance of personal creativity and freedom in painting.
Ross’ television show became a cultural phenomenon and his legacy has continued to this day, with a large fan base and followers who continue to practice his painting technique and enjoy his relaxed and encouraging teaching style.
But how is it that Bob Ross still has fans today? Because he has a YouTube channel and a Twitch channel where several of the artist’s shows are broadcast every day.
The images we have brought for this news item are created with Stable Diffusion, and the reality is that they look a lot like how we imagine Bob Ross at almost 100 years old.
If you have never seen Bob Ross’ videos, we highly recommend them. They’re great to have in the background while you study or work. His voice and cadence will help you concentrate… or fall asleep. That’s up to you.
