The person painting in the video was the late Bob Ross who hosted the show entitled "The Joy Of Painting" and I first learned about his show in only from the late 90's when we are watching the television.
I was mesmerized by few things in his show, his soft voice and then since I like paintings too I was also got curious about how he does his paintings as well and it seems so easy how he does them all within an hour.
So if I had some sensible brushes, paints, and other painting equipment I could have mimicked how to paint using his techniques because as he paints he describes the name of the color and the mix of them for a certain use on the canvass.
Bob Ross also encourages people to paint by showing how he does paintings although the paintings are not too detailed but indeed very good to be displayed or even sold to would-be buyers.
I am actually inspired to paint after watching him with his shows that keeps blowing my mind because he does his masterpieces very fast in a matter of few minutes with awesome results each and everytime. I just wished that he had lived up to now and probably he will get to be more well known and teach others too with the joy of painting.
