@@lapidarydave uh, yeah... A shot of morphine every time and it's lights out, nite nite, bye bye... A shot of Jäger each time, you may still wake up, on the morrow... *P.S: Check yer msgs, Bub
So many beautiful pieces. That lady at the end is such an incredible artist & a beautiful person. I can't believe she does all that on wheels. 🤯 Thanks Dave
Thank you for sharing this video, what wonderful craftsmanship with all of them, You can tell they are in love with what they create, that's what makes a piece so special.
dave i love the way you connect with all these people and educate both yourself and your subscribers. Dude, i live in NYC and one thing i can tell you is cash is king if you wanna negotiate. LOL... You will get your time to create. You are just really immersing yourself in this culture of craftsmanship, tribal techniques and your questions and observations are your specialty.
Omg- I can’t believe I waited to watch this! What a fun video! So much amazing artwork with heartwarming people and their stories! Feel like your making these life long connections with these people for us and I’m sitting on my couch😝we owe you big Dave! ❤❤❤❤❤❤.
thank you so much for the appreciation and kindness. I feel like the long videos just let me get points across that would be impossible in a short video and make a little bit more money making shorter videos but I feel like the longer ones are important to express what I’m trying to do. Thank you so much my friend.
I am in complete awe of all these talented artists and their beautiful works. Such detailed craftmanship and such wonderful gifts from the Earth. I wish we had such a market here in the Bay Area but we sadly don't. I always like to attend events like these and get items that are blessed by such talented workmanship🥰
some of this I make as well. Not the great fancy ones here, but I love trying new things. my part native blood, only has a bit of creativity in me.. bone, antler beads, making walking sticks, medicine sticks, pouches, earrings. A'HO great show... Meegwetch!!!
Yeah, I started making unformat videos about a year and a half ago. It’s hard to go back to the shorties. RU-vid pays me a lot more this way as well. I’m sorry if it’s annoying but thank you for watching.
Every stone has a compound that polishes it best on a certain pad. The compound works on the best when it comes to agate cerium oxide on leather is good turquoise Zam on cotton is good. However, you wouldn’t want to use Zam on an agate.
Daniel, if your g'ma is a tribal member perhaps you qualify as well, otherwise, you can call your creations "1/4 Native"! See how that does for you. *If all the non-affiliated partial natives got together we might have our own nation within a nation, without reservation. (Good luck getting all of us to agree on anything though)...
@@lapidarydave YOU DONT GET IT!! MAYBE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT NATIVE AMERICAN!! AFRICAN AND EUROPEANS SELL JEWELRY LIKE THIS AND CLAIM TO BE NATIVE AMERICANS BUT IF YOU KNOW HOW MY PEOPLE LOOK YOU WILL SEE MOST OF THE PEOPLE HERE BE SELLING THESE BUT ARE OTHER ETHNIC GROUPS
