    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Bob first got the idea of painting on television from William Alexander by watching he paint. William would do paintings that could take quite a while. Bob made it more commercial by limiting the time to paint to half an hour. William spoke relatively harshly while Bob softened his tone. This began with Bob doing painting workshops.
    • Quotes
      • Self - Host, The Joy of Painting: "I don't have the talent, Bob, to do what you're doing." That's baloney. Talent is a pursued interest. In other words, anything you're willing to practice, you can do. And this is no exception.
