24 Bob Ross T-Shirts That Are Too Awesome To Miss

If you are reading this blog, chances are that you are aware of who Bob Ross was. He was, and is, surely one of the most iconic people in the world of art, a painter and a host of his own TV show dedicated to landscape painting.

And it wouldn’t be correct to say that even those who are not artists have probably seen his show. That is because he truly believed that everyone is an artist, and everyone can develop their abilities if they want to, and he spread these wholesome ideas into the world.

Bob Ross hosted his show with love, and his famous memorable quotes about art and life were a huge part of his “brand”. He made everyone feel like they are worthy, talented, capable of everything they want to do. So why not carry on his legacy and keep on spreading these quotes?

We collected some lovely designed t-shirts that are related to Bob Ross’s quotes, his art and himself.

Why are there so many? Because all the designs are lovely. After all, there can be no mistakes in art (or design), just happy little accidents. *wink*

The paint colors on the sloth’s palette aren’t exactly the very canonical choice, but other than that, it’s a really cute print.

As well as some other tools pictured on this lovely illustration.

This t-shirt with a lovely quote of our maestro Bob Ross will happily remind you of all the joys of painting.

17. There are No Mistakes…

This t-shirt design is here to remind us all again that there can be no mistakes in art, so we shouldn’t be afraid of making them. Even though getting this shirt wouldn’t be a mistake, or an accident, at all. It has an amazing illustration on it, and its round shape makes it look stylish on every possible type of shirt.

18. Beat The Devil Out of It

What do we do with the brushes after we clean them? We beat the devil out of them to leave no extra water on them. That’s what Bob Ross taught us to do in every video of his. With a little giggle, he beat the devil out of his brushes every time to make sure there is absolutely no devil left in them. This shirt can be a good reminder for every painter to leave no excess water because we all can forget about that from time to time, especially when we’re busy.

19. Happy Trees – Long T Shirt

The lovely watercolor illustration on this t-shirt is here to make everyone love all the happy little trees once again. Trees are great, and it also feels great to draw them. It can also be a message about environmental awareness, which makes this quote twice as good.

20. Digital Art Studio

Is digital art easier than traditional art? Does it have less soul in it than traditional art does? Absolutely not. This t-shirt unites all Bob Ross fans who are also digital artists and tells us that all artists and styles matter. That’s what Bob himself would have probably said, and we shouldn’t have doubts about it.

21. I guess I’m A Little Weird

“I guess I’m a little weird”, says one of Bob Ross’s quotes. Well, aren’t we all? It’s okay to be weird because all people are unique and nobody is the same.

What a great job it is that they’re doing!

23. Bob Ross Anime Classic

A possibly strange combination of Bob Ross and anime wouldn’t seem strange to anime lovers at all. In fact, none of the combinations in the world of art are strange. Bob could’ve easily been an amazing anime superhero, eliminating evil with kindness, acceptance and soothing voice. The power of art at its best.

24. Time to Make Some Big Decisions

Now that we’ve learned that we shouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes, there’s another important lesson. Sometimes we have to make big important decisions as well. But with the experience, we find out that it’s not actually scary, and that’s what Bob Ross taught us as well. No matter if you’re deciding where to put a mountain on your canvas or something bigger – it’s your world, and you’re the creator of it.

There’s a piece of advice we can give you. It’s easy to get lost in all of this variety of t-shirts that are out there, so our recommendation is to follow your heart and to know what you’re looking for. No matter if it’s a gift or you’re buying it for yourself, the t-shirt you choose should feel like the right thing.

And now all of the Bob Ross fans out there can easily recognize each other on the streets. Isn’t it great that we have the chance to express our interests that way?

Bob Ross was, for sure, an incredible person, and while his works might have seemed too simple to many people, he wasn’t famous because of super-detailed paintings or bold political messages. He was famous because he made us feel like we’re appreciated, equally gifted, and we can achieve our dreams.

That is why lots of people still love the work that he did, and that is why we think that it’s important to keep spreading his quotes and commemorate him. And by getting t-shirts you also support the artists who created the print designs, which is a great thing to do!
