  • He's pretty good (and you can see where Bob Ross got his methods), but pretty sure Monet would disagree with you about him inventing alla prima painting (or wet on wet if you prefer)

  • SORRY MAMA BUT BOB ROSS DOES IT BETTER.

  • przepiekny

    

  • LOL this is the guy patton oswalt was talking about

  • @airsoft4life5 HAHAHA YES!

  • You you, you you you, you, you, need to practice your English before making another video.

  • @Lucifer9387 how many languages do you speak? :p

  • @dthejc one... English... So I should know what English should sound like. Also, seeing how he's speaking in my language rather than his own, I'm allowed to criticize.

  • @rgbsax True !

  • oh god...this hurts the ears

  • omg i luv this guy O.O he is awsome n tht accent is epic

  • Okay, I love this guy.

  • How come this guys videos are on YouTube but Bob Ross' get deleted? WTF?

  • I watched both Alexander's and Ross's painting process videos. Ross's paintings are like Victorian greeting cards: very pretty and incredibly kitschy at the same time. Alexander's works may be a bit kitschy too, but they also have this "something" that really makes me think of the old painting masters.

  • Just to clear up some misunderstandings in this comment thread. Bill Alexander taught Bob Ross. Bill created the wet-on-wet oil painting technique, and Bob learned the technique from Bill. BR received his original painting certificaction from Bill. Bill continued to paint and teach millions. He truly was a "happy painter," and his greatest wish was for everyone to love painting. 

  • Bob Ross was the king what a loss to us all

  • Now you you you... you--- you you...... use a one inch brush.

  • Is there an issue with the audio? I don't hear any sound on this video.

  • @drouleau no

  • @7:46 - Bob Ross would have taken so much joy in doing this..

  • no one can do it better than bob ross

  • "you, you, you..." He's so cute. Love watching him paint.

  • i wish i had a pet water, Lol

  • "where is my brush? ...ah in the other hand :)" hahahahahahahahaah

  • "It gives you more value on your PAINING!" :)

  • Sorry Bill, but Bob Ross had too much talent, passion, and narration skills not to pass you up and make you look like a bumbling fool on Television. I enjoy you're paintings but you, not so much.

  • @dom1785 if you like bob ross so much then watch his vids and let other people watch someone else. so stop being such a asshole

  • If this taught us anything, it's that Bob Ross had the ears of 1000 interpreters.

  • This guy might have taught Bob Ross how to paint but i'd watch Bob anyday over this guy!!

  • It's too bad he passed on holding a grudge against Bob for "betraying him" (read: becoming more successful than him).

  • Thanks, I just painted one for each of my family, this video really helped !

  • Alexander and Ross are still alive. They secretly made Skyrim video game. Think about it.

  • i think is the other way around

    skyrim copid ross

  • I would say Bob's was a faster way. But Bob had a longer running series show too

  • Water is a funny animal! :)

  • i thought it was bob ross.. but the accent made me think of Eat da poopoo guy..

  • AGHHH! I was following along and had the mountins/sky/trees looking wonderful. I was actually really proud of myself.. UNTIL I got to the water. Messed it up... I was also using Acrylic as well =\

  • I understand that the following colors are opaque: - Yellow Ochre - Cadmium Yellow - Burnt Umber - Ivory Black - Titanium White And that the following colors are transparent: - Alizarin Crimson - Indian Yellow - Sap Green - Phthalo Green - Phthalo Blue - Prussian Blue - Van Dyke Brown - Burnt Sienna But what about the others?: - Permanent Red - Deep Orange - Permanent Violet - Permanent Rose
  • He's no Bob Ross. But he was Bob Ross's former mentor.

  • ТАЛАНТ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • He looks like The Penguin from Batman

  • He was on way before Bob Ross.

  • u u u u u u 

  • Bob ross without weed?

  • I always thought the funny german accent of Dr Doofensmitzch in Pineas and Ferb was overkill...

  • YOU'RE NOT BOB ROSS.

  • 7:37 i didn't know water is an animal

  • @boomertastic and i didn't even know water was funny too!

  • This guy has NO idea what he's doing.

    He just wakes up in the morning, says, "O.k., now is time to do a painting for all, you,you,you,you,you, you nice peoples out der who vant to know how to make a vonderful painting...and let's get started....

    well, I vas going to do a vwinter scene but i don't haf de white, on my palette.

    CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!"

  • this guys mountains are amazing

  • Hermann Göring teachs us to paint!

  • the first 5 seconds of this video made me piss myself

  • ooz de black pint on de piiilot

  • This is the guy who taught Bob Ross. For real.

  • When did Berlusconi start painting?

  • Great but no Bob Ross :(

  • lol i thought it was bob ross

  • Is this the other guy from the Patton Oswalt bit?

  • At first I thought this was a Bob Ross parody

  • @biggamehunter509 William Alexander is a Bob Ross Parody...He's the only guy who can make Bob Ross's paintings look like a joke by comparison.

  • @biggamehunter509 until he said "u u u u u ...." lol

  • @biggamehunter509 lol the fact that it is not a parody makes it even more funnier xD

  • @biggamehunter509 same here!

  • @biggamehunter509 Actually, having watched some of Bill Alexander's episodes here on YouTube, I'm of the opinion that Bob Ross was a parody of Alexander (who was Ross' teacher). Alexander can be endearingly silly, but he's a technically sound painter. Bob Ross was more telegenic with his soothing voice, but his paintings tended to be filled with a lot more "happy accidents".

  • Hahahaha. Def not bob ross

  • @LoveLydia16 yeah he is Bob Ross's teacher

  • Because trees must STAND!

  • I think this guy is drunk

  • 9 9 9 9 9.. Vat ,use a little vight& jello.. Water is a crazy animal..lol What?..I love this guy, he mkes me feel drunk without drinking..lol

  • I want to move into his painting

  • why does he remind me of danny devito?

  • No, not Bob Ross, but listening to this guy talk is outstanding!

    09:22, What??? "Ahh duhuhuh, all we got is coconut." Or something like that.

  • YOU ARE NOT BOB ROSS!!!

  • THIS WONDERFUL PAINTER AND TEACHER PASSED AWAY MANY YEARS AGO, PLEASE IF EVERYONE WOULD ENJOY THE MANS WORK WITHOUT IGNORANT DISCOURSE THAT WOULD BE SWELL.

    PEACE OUT AND ALL THE BEST TO ONE AND ALL.

  • THIS ISNT BOB ROSS!

  • @CalebMoglia it never ever said that this is bob ross

  • THIS ISNT BOB ROSS

  • Ugly paint

  • Funny how they don't take this guy's videos off YouTube.

  • what kind of paint do you use? what paints would you recommend for a beginner? :)

  • @TsunaXBurner4 ... he's dead

  • @MsRocketman123 yea i know, i was just asking to the general pplz, since i figured there would ppl who would know what he used.

  • I don't know what I'm doing here.

  • stupid

  • i know this guy doesnt do wet on wet paintings . this guy is great . another bob ross he is.

  • @richard12345628 well thats all good but enlighten me has bob ross ever uses a "von inch brush"

  • I giggled the whole time as I watched this :D

  • I was expecting Bob Ross and got a big surprise.

  • What's a Von inch brush?

  • 7:05 ¿Donde esta el pincel, donde esta el picel? ¡Oh pincel idiota aqui estas!

  • Love the accent! though i was gonna see bob ross X)

  • i thought i was gonna see bob ross, i was horribly shcoked

  • I thought I was gonna see Bob Ross XP

  • sooo... where are you from tho..

  • Ps: Your accent is gay.

  • @AshleighNlchole

    You have the knowledge of the ENTIRE world at your fingertips. And you, Mr. "Look at me, I know what I'm talking about" can't even take the time to realize, or research that this guy was Mr. Ross' teacher...dumbass.

  • bob ross isn't high on assfuckness but i gotta give him credit he's very good painter

  • 1 minute in I have come to the observation that Bob Ross makes this style of painting look like a sophisticated, highly technical, intelligent style of painting.

    This guy? It's just as if somebody gave a retard some water colors.

  • YOUR NOT BOB ROSS

  • 00:13 now you you you ,,,

  • "Vata's a fahnny animal." Absolutely right. I've tried to do it on GIMP, and I can't make the damn thing do what I want it to do. I can do forests, night skies, grassy fields... but not water.

  • BOB ROSS LIKE A BOSS, FOREVER!!!

  • He was born in Prussia ... Today northern Poland

  • Bob Ross was a student of Bill Alexander, that's why the early tv shows, Bob was using Alexander product. Then Bob had his own line developed by Martin/F.Weber, which is what is being used today.

  • 00:13 Now you, you, you, you, you, you, you, use the 1'' brush and you... uhhhh.....

    I think I understand now :O

  • good...good...good...good...

    now you you you you....

    now its happening this waeya

  • @BTARWOOD23 lolll

  • I love Bill. My dad back in the mid 80's learned to paint watching these shows on tv. I've inherited all of his old tools, due to his crippling arthritis, and I can't wait to start my first painting. I haven't done this since I was a child, I hope I'm better now than I was then.... Thank you so much for putting these online. It has brought back a lot of wonderful memories for me.

  • Bill-Ross

  • Bill-Ross

  • Yep, Bill's a better painter. Interesting point: Bob Ross uses/used Bill Anderson's tools! I still have and still use my old 'Mr Anderson's Magic Knife,' (the knife and several of the brushes and other materials that Bill Anderson endorsed in his shows were marketed in the late 70's through early 90's) and it's the same type Bob Ross used in his shows. Unfortunately, I'm not as good as either of them, lol...

  • and heia I pull it this vye and heia I pull it this vye

  • He probably learned from Bob Ross in the 60's

  • I am jealous of painters.

  • So, at first .. I thought this was Bob Ross. .. And you you you, you you you.. Use 1 inch brush. Ha, fuck this shit. Bob Ross is way better.

  • Is that pure white!!!?

  • i cant get over how incredible those mountains are. i mean, its genius how u use that technique to put such detail in them. i'm VERY impressed

  • now you you you... you you you... [45 minutes later] use a one inch brush.

  • fuck this guy bob ross is better

  • @foreveronkronic bill is actually a better painter, but bob is more relaxing

  • is he persian? he sounds persian

  • @scratchnsurf he's prussian

  • This guy's very talented... but I'd rather listen to Bob Ross talk about his happy little trees.

  • Fuck this shit I want Bob Ross.

  • @Platemaster Sounds like a you problem man. Nobody cares.

  • need kinda a HAPPY LEETLE BLUUUU THERE. Made my day XD

  • he sounds like ARNOLD

  • If we are comparing to Bob Ross which i think is unfair , then this guys style is far better and his painting looks more realistic, but Bob Ross has an engaging Charisma with the Viewer which isaddictive. But i prefer this guys painting the Mountain range is amazing, BR has a more laid back style.

  • Eat your fro out, Bob Ross.

  • @trevinboy This guy is painting with the Bob Ross Method. Ross invented this Method when he was in the Air Force, stationed in Alaska. Bob loved to paint, but when he was in the service, he had to figure out a way to paint fast because he obviously didnt have time to paint all day. So, he figured out a way to paint a picture in 20 minutes and its know as the Bob Ross Method which this guy is a student of.

  • @6Ott7 what kind of bullshit fuckery are you making up....he studied with bill alexander.

  • @ShankAndTank I don't care who taught him how to paint. This is "The Bob Ross Method." So Blow me fuck face.

  • @6Ott7 you have it all wrong ..Bill Alexander invented this style ,, Bob Ross was his student ..

  • i thought this was bob ross :(

    hes a great painter, i was just looking for bob ross lol

  • you you you. you you you. you did a nice painting here :)

    I like it.

  • Bob Ross is like a Human Quaalude. I sleep better with Bob Ross painting on TV than I do Bill. With Bob's hypnotizing voice, I just sleep like a rock. But, with Bil, every once in a while he will say...."FIRE IN!!!!" Or, "YOU GOT TO HAVE DARK TO SHOW LIGHT!!!!" Words like that just wake me out of a dead sleep like a fire alarm went off or something. But, with Bob Ross' gentle, sleep inducing voice, I sleep like a stump until I wake up and Bob has left and left me sleeping there in the chair.

  • Maybe he taught Hitler how to paint, "UND YOU ADD ZE ARYIAN VWHITE, UND MIX IT IN WITZ ZE REICH RED!!!!"

  • @ronanwicca HAHAHAHA!! No kidding!!

  • is this bob ross' teacher?

  • Sounds like Bob Ross and Hitler had a baby.

  • 0-0 get 'that' paint? lol horrible at explaining but a painting prodigy :D

  • I would have been satisfied with the mountains.. If i made trees i feel like it would ruin them

  • Wat? Iz dat Silvio Berlusconi? :O

  • I VIELD THE VAND OF ODIN!!!

  • This man comes across dumb by taking ages to say something... but is actually very intelligent and has taught me loads <3

  • You are a great teacher ... teach you plain and simple ... .... In addition, your blood is light in the sense you like laughter, Excuse me if there was an error, I use the program to be translated

  • i expected this nazi to start freaking out and destroying the painting O.o

  • This Is so easy to fall asleep to

  • Both of them are really good, but the fact is that before Bob there was Bill.

  • I would say Bob Ross still takes the cake by a longshot. IMO

  • well your not bob ross *legend* but you shur can paint like em

  • Not bad,as a matter of fact---"FANTASTICO"!

  • oooooh, i love this maaaan...simple and funny, this is an artist

  • when this guy talks it seems like he doesn't know what he's doing...

    then he paints and it looks like i'm watching an amateur. so slow..

  • lol water is a funny animal...?! :^O :^)

  • Artistic skill is not owned by anyone, it has evolved over centuries since homo erectus first had a full larder after a good hunting, a few spare minutes and the wife, Mrs Erectus, had nagged him enough times to redecorate the cave, pushing man to make that giant leap to discover art.

    In fact some of the earliest Troglodyte artistic scribblings ever found in the remote mountains of southern godknowswhere probably hold secret paintings by the early ancestors of Bob and Bill.

    Happy Painting

  • This guy may well have taught Bob Ross, though Bob took countless painting courses to acquire his own eclectic mix.

    Bill Alexander must have been taught by someone too, most likely my many people over many years.

  • Comment removed

  • bob ross is more relaxing

  • @lordhyphy bob ross is sooooo beast boooyaaahhh bob ross wootwoot!!!!

  • @lordhyphy well alexander is a better painter

  • @MsRocketman123

    I second that!!!!

    Alexander > Ross

    

  • @dft432 thank you, sir!

  • @MsRocketman123

    I watched both Ross & Alexander growing up, and i've realized Bill is vastly superior to Bob.

    What I liked about Alexander is that he had eps where he painted still-lifes & florals.

    Bill even painted a city skyline in one ep and in another he painted horses (mare & foal)

  • @dft432 yes! i love how alexander has longer actual episodes. I would definitely agree that he is a superior painter, even thought bob is more relaxing

  • @lordhyphy yeah he sounds like an old nazi

  • pl pl plow trew da da pint der:P

  • I think Bob Ross is more talented but I definitely think Bill Alexander is light years more entertaining.

  • Right on! Much more entertaining; a great storyteller!

  • I respectfully disagree. There was nothing that Bill could not, and would not paint.

  • ya but bob learned from this guy

  • His mountains are always amazing!!!!
