Thirty Bob Ross paintings will be auctioned over the next few months, with proceeds going to small and rural public stations across the United States that have had their funding cut off. Congress has eliminated $1.1 billion allocated to public broadcasting, leading to many stations making programming cuts and laying off staff. Most of the paintings of mountain vistas and lake scenes were created on air, in under 30 minutes. Ross "dedicated his life to making art accessible to everyone,” said Joan Kowalski, president of Bob Ross Inc. “This auction ensures his legacy continues to support the very medium that brought his joy and creativity into American homes for decades.” Here's more from @AssociatedPress.

Thirty paintings by Bob Ross are set to be auctioned to support public television stations. The Bonhams auction is to begin Nov. 11 in Los Angeles with three of the paintings. Other auctions will follow. All profits will help public TV stations with licensing fees for popular programs that include “The Best of Joy of Painting” and “America's Test Kitchen.” Bob Ross Inc. president Joan Kowalski says the auction will continue Ross' legacy of supporting public television. Ross, who died in 1995, was in production with “The Joy of Painting” for 11 years. He enjoyed a resurgence of popularity during the COVID lockdowns. The auctions come as Congress has cut $1.1 billion in public broadcasting funding.
