Tony Hart was an artist who dominated childrens TV in the UK for half a century. Along with Rolf Harris he made art accessible and above all fun. I found this article. While it's incredibly sad it should also be a kick up the ass all the inspiration less people on this site needs. SOONER OR LATER YOU REALLY WON'T BE ABLE TO DRAW. Everyone here will one day draw and paint their last image. Don't waste your time Tony certainly didn't. I'll never forget his shows.

Give this a read you won't regret it.

"Today my studio lies abandoned, and I spend most of my day confined to my chair. Not being able to draw is the greatest cross that I have to bear, for it has been my lifetime passion. But, I endeavour to stay cheerful, as there is nothing to be done about my condition."

I never quite forgave him for not putting my awesome picture of a chicken in The Gallery when I was a sprog.

Bloke's still a Legend though. Him and Rolf.

"Can ya see what it is yet..?"

Edit: America, he was the British Bob Ross.

I loved watching Vision On just for him. He made it seem all too easy.
