Bob Ross is the modern manifestation of the ubermensch.
>creates his own values, gives zero fucks what the flies of the marketplace of the contemporary art community thought of him
>free spirited, charted his own course through life and didn't even care what people thought.
>overcame ressentiment
>many animal friends just like Zarathustra

Howard Roark and by that argument his basis in fact, Frank Lloyd Wright is probably the closest I can think ofthis is not an endorsement of Ayn Rand in any way.
Bob was marketing towards a low class demographic for ratings after the government mandated educational programming for public television.

Ayn Rand's understanding of the ubermensch was remarkably shallow
I'd say Bob Ross comes closer to it in fact than Roark does in fiction

I don't recall Wright having any animal friends. Ross had a pet squirrel and a crow.
Beyond good and evil.
He kept pets like da Vinci and Alex DeLarge...

Being ubermensch is not about not making mistakes.
