Bob is legendary painter and art-instructor Bob Ross!
He hosted a TV show called The Joy of Painting from 1983 until 1994. He died in 1995 of lymphoma, having completed over 30,000 paintings in his lifetime.
Bob was one of three new TDD characters introduced in a fantasy-themed series of eight. The other two new characters are Archeveld and Perry. The other five figures were re-releases (Draco, Willy, Henry, Art, and Theodore).
It may seem odd that real-person Bob Ross would be included in fantasy series. But, if you grew up watching Bob Ross on TV, then you know why he fits. Bob Ross came across as this way-too-happy guy as he painted his fantastic landscapes with mountains, trees, and "happy little clouds." Everything about him suggested that he was in his own little fantasy-land.
