2. Yes, indeed and
I really miss him and his show. I have one of his how-to books, but I have never tried his method. I keep saying that I will, but I never get around to it. I used to just enjoy watching him paint.

3. I liked Bob as a person more than I liked his paintings
His death was a huge loss. He was the nicest TV personality I've ever seen. Even nicer than Mr. Rogers.

BTW, I'm not saying his paintings were bad, it's just not my favorite style.

4. You know...he was such a soft -spoken person and seemed to
enjoy what he was creating. We need more happy little tree painters painting happy little clouds and trees! Wouldn't it be wonderful to have lots of people painting. Can't be firing guns when you're creating art work. Yes, I like his work. I was sorry to hear about his death.

5. You know he's been dead for sometime
A whole empire has been created on his videos. Somehow as an artist I don't really mind him. He's self taught and happy at what he does.

BTW, this is my art here:


A bit edgier heh?

6. For me it was the process and his personality, rather than his
paintings. I loved him and his show. He was one of the few well-known people whose death I actually mourned.

John Chancellor and Christopher Reeve were two of the others.
