[ WP ] Each of Bob Ross ' landscape paintings is a real place , the different locations of his countless murders .

My duty as attorney is to be in charge of Ross's estate -- all of his old paintings, which have been tucked away in a climate-controlled storage safe until I get orders from the next of kin on what to do with said paintings. I'm the only person with the authority to access these. 
 
 Once, a while back, myself being a fairly successful, handsome man, had a dinner date with a younger professional female; she was a successful artist. Ross came up in topic over dinner, and well -- we had had a few glasses of good vintage ( notes of hazelnut, burgundy, earth... ). One thing let to the next, and I was unlocking the the safe to show her the collection. We piece throw Ross's televised landscapes, one by one... and then I see it. A small, shadow obscured crucifix stood by the base of a tree. 
 `` Huh, does that look like a crucifix to you?'' 
 `` It looks like a grave-marker.'' 
 
 Then I quickly went back over the other paintings we had already passed through, scouring again those mountains, and river valleys with a closer eye when she said, `` Here's another one!'' I looked. The grave in this one was in the river, the water blatantly diverging around its own crucifix, the likeness lay just under the surface of water. 
 
 And then they suddenly became clear: A crucifix, minute in a far-off gap of trees, another entombed by rocks, another in the shadow of a cactus... 
 
 Every painting had one.
