He was the most amazing painter – he’d have this beautiful picture, then plop some black paint in the middle and I’d be like WHAT DID YOU DO!! Then with some edge of a knife and a little burnt umber and he’d have that blob looking like a cottage covered in snow with a smoldering fire inside. And it was just that quick, too.
The human quaalude I used to call him.
He is missed for sure. Bet those paintings are worth a pretty penny now.
This made me so happy and mellow. Took me back to my younger days when I would lounge on the couch on Saturday mornings watching him paint in a blissful stupor.
I record his old shows every week, and if I can’t fall asleep, I’ll watch an episode. It usually does the trick, although I haven’t actually fallen asleep during a show yet.
That totally made my millenium! I miss that guy.
Can’t believe how much that made me smile.

He was super-amazing!
I used to love watching him paint! I like the way he does trees!
Ok, I confess, I had no idea who he was… but WOW!!! Amazing talent!!

My Mom used to paint from his show when I was a kid. Great memories of him. That made me smile so much!!
I smiled through this whole thing. His soothing voice and quiet encouragement was always a place of calm in my often stormy childhood. How I miss him…
