His style was from military -he apparently spent long enough complying with procedures and got to a position he had to bark orders, he said never again which is quite admirable.
I wonder though, with a hair style like that how long he learned to pace his workbench fro the canvas? I can't imagine that impressive afro didn't do an inadvertant smudge or smear on his canvases sometimes or often. Maybe the backs of his sofas in his house were thick with oil paints. LoL.
...Never the less, not my style of painting but very impressed to see him on relatively mainstream TV again, and recognised on the BBC because it was on PBS originally so I imagine he got naff-all payment for each original episode. I think the BBC needs more of this type of show now, not churning out endless social media friendly guff, then an aftershow. God rest Bob's soul, Nice to see him again!
