Bob Ross was paid $0 to make his series. He made a living giving lessons IRL and later selling his own line of paints and brushes.
I apologize for not reblogging him as much but everyone needs this on their dash daily. Seriously everyone needs this on their blog or wherever.
Do they rerun this anymore or no?
Words of wisdom!
Seriously though! If you’re feeling depressed or anxious, these episodes are great! I had a period in my life where I suffered almost daily panic attacks. I could normally tell when one was about to start in the next few minutes and I would start watching Bob Ross right away. This show literally STOPPED me from having panic attacks because I was so focused on his calm voice and words of wisdom.
No, seriously. If you don’t have money to help out an artist financially, the second best thing is to reblog all the things you like. While liking it does tell the artist that “hey I really like this!” It does jack shit because the only ones who will see that are me and you.
Why do you think there are so SO many posts made by people that are literally summed down to “please reblog my artwork I need the notes!”? Because no one reblogs artwork. Unless you’re a ridiculously popular blog with thousands of followers, you’ll only end up getting 1 or no reblogs.
SO HELP OUT ARTISTS AND PLEASE REBLOG OUR ART, BECAUSE WE REALLY NEED THE VIEWS ;V;)/
