| | myLot Discussions| Did painter Bob Ross use drugs? | | My father in law was just visiting with us and we got into a conversation about the tv shows my daughter watches. I was telling him about how she enjoys watching Mister Rogers Neighborhood which is a show my husband and I enjoyed as kids. My father in law started talking about Mister Rogers and went on to say "Yeah he was great with kids, but didn't they find out he did cocaine?". My husband and I were in disbelief so we had to research to see what we could find. But as we were on the topic of PBS shows hubby swears that he remembers something about painter Bob Ross being on drugs. So now I'm sitting here researching two of my favorite PBS personalities to see if they abused drugs back in the day. So far I'm happy because I haven't been able to find anything. So I'm coming to my fellow MyLotters to ask.Did Bob Ross or Fred Rogers use drugs? | |
| | Who is your favorite artist? | | Being an artist, it can be difficult to pick just one artist out. I really enjoy the works of Michelangelo. My favorite current artists are Boris Vallejo and his wife, Julie Bell. I think their work is just awesome. It so realistic and fantastic. | |
| | What do you think of this little experiment? | | Okay, in addition to my prior posting where I stated that I am seeking honest, constructive critisism ont he work I am posting, I thought it may be fun to broaden this discussion where I kindly ask you to answer the following questions - some or all if you have the time, lol! I just want to see how different people perceive the same image.Please think about:
What does this make you feel?
Have you been there before?
Where is it?
What age and gender is the artist?
Have you seen it before?
If you HAVE seen it before, where?
Would you recommend this artist to a friend or family member?Thank you again so much for your time, and if you like this little experiment, please check back for more postings with different artwork.I can't wait to hear the responses. | |
| | | Painting on Canvass | | Hi

Does anyone out there use this method and does it work successfully. | |
| | my new sewing machine... | | horayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
as my friends know,, i am in to fashion designing and arts stuff.
and thankfully, my man is always there to support me with all my hobbies and passion in life.
he knows i love to paint (although painting doesnt love nor like me,,, lol) but he still stands right next to me and give my easel, paints, paint brush, bob ross' videos and painting set and so many things about painting.
then i am in fashion so he goes with me to buy fabrics and accessories and give me ideas and advices too.
so the biggest one is him giving me this sewing machine.
i had make 2 clothes using my bare hands so he said he will buy me one and this is it!
i already have all my stuff and will start it as soon as my pain is over.
last week when he presented this machine with me, i told him i never use an electric one coz grandma only have the pedal "century old" one,, i am only aware of the parts that belongs to the manual.
so i asked him to help me figure this out..
it is so funny coz he NEVER do such thing (wish i video tape him,, hahaha), he thinks it's funny that im the one who is into sewing and there he is, showing how it works for me...
oh well,, he is such a sweetheart... | |
| | learn how to prepare the oil paint before actual painting | | I use to paint with the Bob Ross method many years ago. I loved it. However I haven't been able to pursue it for a long time. Now I would like to pick it up again but I'm looking for the answer on what to do with the paint after you squeeze it out of the tub.
I'm sure that something is done to thin out the paint a little and I don't know if you mix in paint thinner or not. HELP!! | |
