David,
Bob Ross was a character on TV here who spoke in gentle tones and always in a half hour created paintings that would look great in the lobby of any budget motel.
His catch phrase was "happy little..." trees, clouds, mountains, etc. which he would paint in one or two strokes of a palette knife.
Here's a funny video parody clip:

Ross died some years ago allegedly of AIDs. Jokes about him haven't diminished since his demise.
Your skills, demos, and results are decidedly UN-Ross like!
