The Mentor Behind Bob Ross's Signature Style

Bill Alexander, a German-born painter, developed the wet-on-wet technique that lets artists layer fresh paint directly onto a wet canvas, creating soft blends without waiting for drying time. He taught Bob Ross this method, and Ross went on to popularize it for millions of viewers on his show.

Have you ever tried wet-on-wet painting, or does the idea of blending on a wet canvas appeal to you?
