I ever tell you about the time I tried to buy a Bob Ross? Talked to PBS Corporate and everything. They were polite but firm; Rosses almost never come up for sale because every painting he did went to a local PBS station, where they are prized and valued. When they do occasionally go up for sale they're generally handled by one of the big houses. I've since seen a couple of unknown provenance go on eBay for six figures.
I've heard that about his work. I guess not much is known about the guy in general. He didn't do many interviews. I don't think many people bothered to ask him. I heard he was a drill instructor though who retired and vowed to never yell again. And grow a sweet white guy afro.
