Cass Kachel Same! Twice, I’d think. However, Miss Janina has a voice like nails on a chalkboard, bless her enthusiastic little screeching heart. The episodes with her get one viewing. Not hatin’, just statin’!
I really appreciate this show having Greenhaugh and giving him a challenge for making all kinds of art, and legally earning a living, while all he is doing his passion, art in all its glory!
Put that man to constructive work. So many artists and craftsman are underpaid and under appreciated. It is not a stretch that a bit of lucrative forgery would be tempting to a man of his skills.
Shaun Greenhalgh is a genius. There aren't too many craftsman in the world with his ability today. I am glad Mr. Greenhalgh has left his past behind and is now showing the world his immense talent and connoisseurship of the history of the art objects he can masterly reproduce.
Love Janauszchuk and in awe of the very talented artist from Bolton so glad he has found an important and hopefully career he is a great addition to our understanding of these objects and so talented!
I don´t want to be grumpy, but the woman is over the top with her gesturing and loud voice. The craftman is impressive and his efforts talks for itself.
Watching him in various programs like this one always makes me regret not having gone to art school after grade 13 in the 30 years since, I've taught myself various materials, but this guy is a whole town of factories producing every item imaginable.
1) Twas brillig how the Visigoths inspired a Bolt-on man To mimic and to mingle in this way. So think-ed he, then worked with glee, on the gems and ore he'd wrought. 2) Beware the cranky alabaster and shun the frumious bad stone batch The pores that crack, the chunks that flake, Long time the manxome foe he sought (One two, one two, the vorpal tools went snicker snack. Gone was the dread as he went to bed For tomorrow he'd be back) 3) ''Oh frabjous clay, I'll have a play with some fish this day'' He chortled in his joy. 4) Twas brillig how the crystal ware did gleam and twinkle on display All mimsy were the burrowed grooves And his moment wrath did wane. (Apologies to Alice)
Don't care about Shaun's past..right now he is a genius. Not just for what he creates but because of his amazing knowledge of technique, materials and fabrication...and history. Would sure love to have a pint or ten with him.
A very interesting documentary but made hard to watch by the awful ‘over the top’ woman Yanina. Please keep her out of the next ones as she’s so annoying. Her voice is grating, and she doesn’t add anything to the story line.
i didnt think i was into art untill i saw the waldemar rococco video, or maybe it was the dark ages one. he tells such a great story and its great to watch. you guys are great. makes me wish i went to school for art history
Shaun could use a sit/stand desk to make it easier on his body, keeping him able to keep working on his masterpieces (and goggles, and a respirator)... Oh my, Twelve rounds, three days each, just for the final polish.
Amazing! I always wonder how ancients did these artifacts??? To recreate we use modern technology and it's always elaborate and amazing. Brilliant. How did they do it????
Well hello there Sir Waldemar, I haven't seen you for awhile. Love your channel. Chocker Block full of wonderful and facinating topics about Art, Artist with a bio thrown in. And oh yes, I love your humour, of course its British. Cheers
These episodes were good 1st time around & even okay for a quick revisit but bundling them together for a long form rerun is, at the very least, dodgy marketing.
I love both of them! Dr. Ramirez is very knowledgeable and obviously is in awe of Shaun’s great skill and knowledge. Love the program design of observing the art, studying the natural materials, obtaining the natural materials, history about the artists, and then the creation using the original materials and craftmanship whenever possible. I really love this series! Kudos!
So I'm thinking doesn't Shaun ever drop his mask? and then the dude who builds the crystal box snatches the bills from Shaun's hands AND Shaun drops his masks and smiles AND he shakes the dude's hand, worth noting - he is not a hugger. Dude is a total old school gangster without the killin'n'stuff. His concentration is beyond. I just finished restoring a 1966 Sears and Roebuck Silvertone (Chicago) guitar to a slightly modified version of the original, maintaining the original soul of the 6-string-gem, 19.95 plus tax in 1966. I have seen these Silvertones in photos of "poor people" (c'mon, Tubers, you've heard of them) - some quite famous (mostly blues) performers - I imagine that it cost about 7 bucks in the forties. Real guitar players will smirk smugly when I inform them that yes, plywood ages beautifully. I am positive that many impoverished Southern Country Folk owned the Sears and Roebuck's Silvertone Siix String Guitar. Don't even get me started on the Silvertone electric - even Pagey owns one.
well caravagio was killed by competition, so, seems like the barons from that time were a bit losing money cause fo caravaggio, so, so was quite frequently the method used by comeptitors
pontormo wouldnt leave his house cause as well the competitors were messing his paintings, erase it, put it in the water and so on, seems that real art was a bit compromised by some barons in the middle ages
Exciting except for the baby frog in the early murder stage by the snake of at the top of the ceramic. That was the only borish addition. Everything else was AMAZING!
Great and talented bloke Shaun Greenhalgh , .... awful stupid gushing woman , I just knew she would say " hiiiiiii " where one earth did she get awarded her doctorate ?
The fact that the raw materials of art, decent thin steel, alabaster, tempura, grass snakes and lizards, quartz crystal lumps... We've taken the vehicles of art from our landscape. Took too much. All gone now in 2023...
