LOS ANGELES (AP) — Thirty paintings created by the bushy-haired, soft-spoken Bob Ross will soon be up for auction to defray the costs of programming for public television stations suffering from cuts ...

Three original paintings by beloved TV artist Bob Ross sold for more than $600,000 at auction to benefit public broadcasting after stations were decimated by the Trump administration’s funding cuts.

A Bob Ross painting broke a record and helped "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" raise about $1.5 for public broadcasting stations.
