Answer:
Ross was working as a part-time bartender when he discovered the German painter Bill Alexander's television show The Magic of Oil Painting. Alexander employed a 16th-century painting technique known as alla prima (Italian for 'first attempt'), colloquially referred to as "wet-on-wet," which enabled him to complete a painting in thirty minutes. Ross learned how to do it, and then he started painting and selling Alaskan landscapes on novelty gold pans. Ross's sales revenue eventually exceeded his military salary.
