I learned that Moran helped to inspire people to travel and visit these amazing locations. He also helped Congress to support the protection of these beautiful locations.

@jenniferdeacon2375 29 дней назад

Enjoyed learning more about Thomas Moran…I didn’t know very much but Moran; his paintings are amazing! Thanks Anthony!

@EmilyKWitcher 27 дней назад

This was such a fun artist to learn about! I had no clue who Thomas Moran was, but will for sure be looking up his paintings now. I love that he painted the national parks and had a hand in helping to preserve that beauty for future generations!

@barbarag3239 29 дней назад

Oh my! Thomas Morans' paintings are stunning! As I never heard of the artist this whole video became a learning experience....Thank you Anthony

@citykatcrafter 26 дней назад

I did not know anything about Thomas Moran before this video. I think one of the most important things that his art has done is shown people the magnificence of the Western United States. ❤

@ellentaylor8857 27 дней назад

I had never heard of Thomas Moran until your video. Thank you. What a talent! I learned he was self taught.

@robearz683 29 дней назад

Wow! What a great video! I am completely in love with Moran's artwork! I learned about his love for the American west. Very fascinating!

@Rett19691 29 дней назад

This is a new artist to me. His landscapes are amazing! I learned that Moran helped inspire Congress to make Yellowstone the first national park

@ThisOne5248 29 дней назад

Thank you Diamonds and Washi - Katie and Single and Placing -Anthony for this event, I’ve enjoyed exploring old masters with you and finishing my “right of passage” Starry Night. 😂 Highlighting Moran with this video and learning how his art inspired travel and wonderment in nature has sparked the enthusiasm for yet another diamond painting 🥰

@deirdrewebb862 25 дней назад

I love landscapes! Interesting to learn he painted as he traveled the west and his art inspired people to travel. Thank you for these interesting insights into artists!

@rachelhagger4943 28 дней назад

Hello! Thank you for sharing this amazing artists story with us! It is amazing that he taught himself through watching his brother. That's talent!

@michellereyes3959 27 дней назад

I never knew Thomas Moran until today. His artworks are very detailed. Great contribution in Yellowstone as the first national park.

@rachelmeyer563 28 дней назад

These paintings are absolutely beautiful!! Especially the waterscapes

@alinagordyn 29 дней назад

This artist is brand new to me. I love how he draws water in motion. Moran is very gifted.

@kathygetchel7803 28 дней назад

Loving these videos because I’m Learning about the artists. Never knew Thomas Moran had no formal art education. His paintings are beautiful.

@meretaylor 28 дней назад

Thanks for your video and all the info on Thomas Moran! I found it very interesting to learn of his involvement in getting Yellowstone the classification of National Park. It was pretty cool to hear that his paintings helped create interest to travel to many locations!

@michellebrice2990 29 дней назад

I had never heard of Thomas Moran before this video. Thank you so much for spotlighting him. I learned that although Mann was already a great artist, along with his brother, Edward, it seemed like it wasn't until he decided to travel out west to Yellowstone that his notoriety really took off. He really made a visual impact with his beautiful paintings and gave people a true look at the beauty of the west.

@liseboyd1014 29 дней назад

How lovely! Stunning painterly style. I love that he learned with his brother. Incredible family legacy together. His art reminds me of the Hudson River School painters. I’m thinking they may be contemporary, and will look into that soon. Thank you for the introduction. ☺️

@aaugustine1626 29 дней назад

Thank you for bringing this artist to my attention. His work is new to me. He brought the west to the rest of the country prior to the railroad being constructed there. He learned to ride a horse and hiked with his supplies to paint Yellowstone before it became the first national park! He was an influencer of his day through his art!

@janineswauger 29 дней назад

Anthony your videos for this event are truly magical!!!! One thing I learned about Thomas Moran is that he is still featured on maps and brochures to this day. Love that an artist from so long ago is still appreciated today. Thank you again for another great video!

@brittjoosten8031 29 дней назад

I did not know Thomas Moran before, but I am happy I discovered this artist through this video. What a stunning artworks 🤩. Also makes me even more excited for the roadtrip to the west coast I am going to make this September.

@glominard 28 дней назад

I had never heard of Thomas Moran before, but I enjoyed learning of how his art influenced tourism and the declaration of a national park!

@gekotoes 22 дня назад

I loved learning about this artist! I have never heard of Thomas Moran. I personally love how he painted national parks! His artwork is absolutely stunning! 🤩

@carolracine4356 29 дней назад

Anthony, I love learning about artist’s lives, art journey and works. Thomas Moran’s art are masterpieces. The fact that he did not attend art school nor have any formal training is astounding! Congress’ recognition of him by purchasing his work is gratifying. I look forward to seeing your Diamond painting of his piece “Chasm of the Colorado” - very appropriate for you! Thank you for the thorough & enjoyable video. My maternal ancestry is the name of Moran, prompting me to do some research to find if there is a relation connection.

@deekato3938 28 дней назад

This was another wonderful video, Anthony! I had never heard of Thomas Moran prior to your video, so everything was new to me. I visited The Painted Desert in the 70s, so the painting brought back fond memories to me. I found it very interesting that he was mainly self-taught, along with the assistance of his brother and that we have him to thank for Yellowstone becoming a national park. Thank you for the education on Thomas Moran, Anthony! 🙏

@jgrote2007 29 дней назад

I did not know that his artwork had inspired travel. I love his paintings. Thank you for the wonderful video. Very well put together ❤

@CourtKaufmann 28 дней назад

Thanks for another great video. I never knew how important art was for the national parks and the history of the United States. Now I what to go see more of Thomas Moran works.

@theresahendrie6206 28 дней назад

Wow I’ve never even heard of Moran. He had such beautiful detailed artwork!

@melissa_ann_sparkle 29 дней назад

It’s really cool to learn that his paintings helped create national parks. It’s like he left more than paintings as his legacy

@beckyhall2088 27 дней назад

I learned so much with this video. Honestly, I may have seen his work living in the West but would not have known who it was. A self-taught artist. What a gift this man had and how nurtured it. To think he passed away almost 100 years ago and yet his art is still used. Amazing. I really enjoyed the video you put together. I love how you had your hike with Apollo in black and white in the back ground. It really added to the atmosphere of the whole video. Thanks.😊

@ellenlyon9906 29 дней назад

Wow this was a new artist to me, I love that Thomas Moran was so instrumental in the creation of Yellowstone as the first National Park in the United States.

@txlaura 24 дня назад

Thank you for producing this amazing and informative video. I loved learning more about Thomas Moran and did not know that he started with marine paintings. His artwork is breathtaking.

@GrannyGCooks 29 дней назад

I didn't know anything about Thomas Moran so all of this was new to me. I was out west a couple years ago and his paintings of the Grand Canyon and Petrified Forest brought back memories. Thanks so much for sharing this Anthony, very nice presentation.

@Chocolate_Diamonds 29 дней назад

Hello Anthony... 5his was an amazing video! WOW I didn't know anything about this artist so everything was new to me. You are an excellent orator!!

@colleenkazin 28 дней назад

I had not heard of this artist before! It was amazing to hear about his part in inspiring the first national park.

@kacey992 28 дней назад

I had no idea that a painter had that much influence in the recognition of the first parks and monuments. Thank you for the awesome information!

@April-SW 28 дней назад

Well Thomas Moran is a stunning landscape artist. I may actually have found an artist for next summer. Love his work.

@SheriTracey61 28 дней назад

Great video, Anthony!! I was excited to learn that Thomas Moran fine tuned his skills with his older brother. Truly a family of artists. I also love his painting of the Grand Canyon. Simply breathtaking, and I know that people who saw his art back in the day were excited about traveling to the locations. So amazing!!!!

@lesliediamondpaints 29 дней назад

Thanks for the video! I learned Moran was a part of popularizing Yellowstone with his depictions of the amazing scenery.

@cynthiaadan9560 28 дней назад

Hello Anthony thank you for another interesting and informative video .My love for learning has me hoping for more to come.The the things I learned about Thomas Moran is his willingness to not only change mediums and his techniques but to also learn from his older brother. I like that he made it possible to immerse himself into nature and the unknown territory of his time and from those efforts he was able to translate what he saw into the beautiful paintings that people then and now enjoy.

@alicelopiccolo7183 29 дней назад

Hi Anthony. Great video! I had never heard of this artist before and enjoyed learing about him. His landscape paintings are beautiful and I can understand why he was chosen to paint & inspired travel to the west, such as Yellowstone.

@SabineSuess 28 дней назад

Hi Anthony, to be honest, as I am from Austria, I actually had never heard of Thomas Moran before. So everything about him was new to me. One of the most interresting facs for me was, that Yellowstone Nationalpark was worlds first nationalpark ever! Amazing! Thank you!

@laurabartlett9724 29 дней назад

Beautiful video- love how you put this together! It’s a pleasure to listen to and take in. Moran had such talent my gosh! His way of capturing the light steals my breath. I can’t recall hearing of him before which is fantastic! It gives me something to enjoy digging into. I love that he went on the expedition with a photographer to Yellowstone. So often I’ve wondered if the land really looked the way an artist portrayed it generations ago. What a remarkable discovery to see such proof essentially side by side! I’m awestruck. Understandable why you appreciate his work.

@mysmys1406 29 дней назад

How have I not heard of this wonderful artist before?! His paintings are so lifelike. The most amazing bit was that he was pretty much self taught! That kind of talent blows my mind. I’m definitely going to be on the lookout for his work in Diamond painting. I would love to do one. Thanks for the education. Wonderful video!

@lllafoe61 29 дней назад

I learned everything. I had not ever heard of him. Beautiful paintings!!!

@aprilcampbell9747 28 дней назад

Hi Anthony. Thomas Moran reminds me of how Frederic Edwin Church painted South America rainforest. Morgana paintings seem to capture the grandeur of the land. Thanks.

@francesposnanski1515 29 дней назад

Thank you for the informative video about Thomas Moran. I was not familiar with his work, so everything was a discovery for me.

@k9mama0814 27 дней назад

Hi Anthony, what a great deep dive into a non-European Old Master! Beautiful artwork from a naturally gifted painter. Everything you talked about was new to me so I learned a lot about Thomas Moran and may want to get one of his ocean images for 2025 SWTM. Thank you for sharing this with us!

@cassie1715 28 дней назад

I learnt that Tomas Moran was born in England, but grew up in America and that he traveled throughout his life painting incredible pictures of where he went and had a good long life.

@colourseekerful 28 дней назад

The colours are stunning!! It gives such a fantasy feel to the paintings .. I learnt that Moran and Jackson were the main reason why Yellowstone became recognised as the first American National Park. It was by showing the government it's unreal elements and true beauty through both their photographs and paintings. So cool to learn these things as an Australian 😊 thanks

@Diamonds-for-Mental-Health 29 дней назад

I had no idea what his name was. I have seen so much of his artwork and recognized so many parks I have visited. Thank you for this educational video.

@melv6740 24 дня назад

Anthony, thank you again for spreading your fountain of knowledge with the community. TBH, I knew nothing about Thomas Moran so everything was fascinating 😂. I thought it was really cool that he created illustrations of Yellowstone even though he had never been there…like what? 🤯 How freakin cool.

@amy-g 27 дней назад

I have never heard of Thomas Moran before so everything in this video was new to me.

@cassandrawaalkes-gill3937 20 дней назад

I had no clue about this artist and I loved the art you showed. It made me want to see more of his art.

@Queen_of_Diamonds_4 29 дней назад

Hey Anthony! I learned that Moran's amazing art was used on brochures to show people the beautiful landscapes!

@cherylneedham-rives9454 22 дня назад

Everything I learned about Thomas Moran from your video was new to me! If it wasn’t for old masters I don’t think I would have completed more than one or two diamond paintings. The style of a couple of his paintings reminded me of an artist I discovered from your last year’s museum tour (Henry Roderick Newman). Thank you for making this every bit about the artists as the craft!

@KellyQueen-qt8yh 29 дней назад

I learned who Thomas Moran is! I had not heard of him prior, although I had seen some of his painting. This video expanded y conception of "Old Masters" to include a wide variety of styles.

@kaedisredlaer6401 29 дней назад

I had never heard of him! I do love that he felt he couldn’t paint the landscapes without having actually been there and just jumped in to go to them

@liza0815 28 дней назад

very nice video Anthony i learned that he taught himself & it's neat that congress bought a painting what a feeling that must of been for him to have it hang in a government building he must of been very proud.

@alicat61 29 дней назад

Thanks for this, Anthony. I did not know that it was thanks to Thomas Moran that Yellowstone was named as the first national park. Apollo makes a fantastic wild west dog.

@AndiAdams-xd5zg 28 дней назад

I honestly didn’t know anything about this artist! The Grand Canyon is one of my favorite places I’ve been, so that painting was just 🤩

@grams4ta679 29 дней назад

I knew very little about this artist. I think it’s fascinating that he joined an expedition and then learned how to ride so that he could go.

@SummerCourtCreations 27 дней назад

What a fun video. I learned so many new things but my favorite was that Jackson would photograph Yellowstone while Moran would paint it to prove the sites existed. Sounds like such a wonderful adventure!

@Millerthymemama 22 дня назад

Loved this video! And loved hearing about the impact of art contributing to the establishment of our National Parks! 🎨🏔️💚

@lookanew 28 дней назад

I learned Thomas Moran's name! I think I've seen several of his works before, but hadn't associated them with a name. Love learning about the man behind the paintings and how cool is it, that he learned painting from his brother?!

@rmjolly72 29 дней назад

This is a new artist to me. What an amazing life and talent he had. I learned he worked along a photographer, William Henry Jackson.

@pamzimmerman640 29 дней назад

I loved the piece from Venice. I think that it’s my favorite. Although Thomas Moran is not my favorite artist, I can appreciate his marine works.

@vivianneaudiss2532 28 дней назад

The fact that his art helped with the creation of the national park system-in his own way- is kinda neat

@Avarie28 29 дней назад

Beautiful and inspirational video 💚

@rubyrunner4509 29 дней назад

I learned that Moran was instrumental in establishing national parks across the US. I have been to Mesa Verde, gorgeous area. Loved every minute of visiting there.

@melina_maryllis 24 дня назад

Wow! It's so cool that he was able to encourage the founding of multiple national parks through his breathtaking works. I didn't know that he was so important to the parks in the US!

@KimAmberg 29 дней назад

I learned that Thomas Moran was an important person in getting some of the national parks and national monuments established.

@raivinx 26 дней назад

It’s amazing how someone can be inspired to learn from friends and family as well as Learning how to ride just so that he could go out in nature and see how nature is in real life so that he paint nature as he sees and painting nature as it would like before people started building on the lands.

@SusanKG 20 дней назад

I learned that Thomas Moran under the tutelage of his older brother initially created marine paintings. He later devoted much of his time to capturing the raw beauty of the western states. He would eventually return to his original themes and painted right up until his death at age 89. Thank you for sharing this engaging portrait of a remarkable artist!

@gretchenkunde9120 24 дня назад

I love that he was able to do what he loved up until he died. He was able to paint the beauty of the land in a way that inspired the preservation of it.

@gbeach20 24 дня назад

Very interesting content. Thanks Anthony. I love learning that Yellowstone was the first National Park. I use to live in Montana and visited Yellowstone often. Thomas Moran’s paintings are beautiful

@DiamondsAreAGirlsBestFriend16 29 дней назад

Ah! I love this! Please do more of these videos! I’ll use them for homeschooling my kids too. Absolutely love this video

@sjtwxgirl 27 дней назад

Thank you! I did not know Moran removed signs of civilization purposely from his paintings. I also enjoy diamond painting landscapes without houses and other signs of human interference.

@Mommy-214 29 дней назад

Thank you for the informative video! I like how he was painting western scenes for magazines, but wanted to see these scenes for himself so much that he went on an expedition.

@Kristina406_Diamonds 27 дней назад

Thank you Anthony for another great video! I had never heard of Thomas Moran until now and his art is beautiful. I learned so much from this video but the best was learning that he had such a vital role in Yellowstone becoming the first National Park.

@kewlilazngrl 28 дней назад

Thanks for this insightful video! I learned that Thomas Moran started with engraving but went into watercolor studying under his brother, very neat!

@mimifs22 29 дней назад

Nice to learn at bit of history on the National Parks in the United States. Never tought an painting artist did help with that.

@DiamondsandDoxies 24 дня назад

Hi Anthony! Great video as usual. I had never heard of Thomas Moran before! I definitely learned that he’s an amazing artist and that I need to get some of his artwork in a diamond painting!

@melissaox7 29 дней назад

I loved learning about how he helped get yellowstone National Park to be.

@JustSheilz 29 дней назад

I was not very knowledgable about this artist, but this video really was interesting. I learned so much about how he is still used in brochures today.

@mysticrainne 25 дней назад

Wow! Thomas Moran was one of the purple who got Yellowstone to be a national park! That's amazing and his artwork is soooo 😍 pretty. Thanks for this video. I love these and learning more about old master's artists!

@helenclemens729 29 дней назад

Thank you for the very interesting video. I learned about the roll he played in the preservation of the western landscapes.

@mags277 21 день назад

Thank you Anthony for another great video. I love the landscapes of Yellowstone and had no idea that Thomas Moran influenced it becoming a national park. So interesting!

@deborahpaul5602 29 дней назад

I have heard about Thomas Moran, but did not realize the role he played in creating our national parks. It makes me wonder what could have happened if he did not paint such beautiful views of each place.

@SherryM2366 22 дня назад

I learned that Moran basically taught himself how to paint with some help from his brother. He felt his ability to see nature and translate it’s beauty was something that could not be taught. I so agree! His work is amazing and one of my favorite artist.

@vikiwells2066 24 дня назад

I learned who Thomas Moran was! I had never heard of him or seen his art before. Beautiful artwork!!

@kimberliley 29 дней назад

I had not heard of this artist before now. I learned that he started as a print publication artist. I am grateful to him because with out his work we might not have all the national parks that we enjoy today. What I find interesting is that both he and mucha both rose in the art world because of their art that was published to promote commercial ventures.

@MaryKearns-le4lm 28 дней назад

Great video! I learned about the impact at that time of art on tourism in the West.

@lisasegorski 28 дней назад

Great video! I didn't know he had no formal instruction or that his painting helped yellowstone become a park.

@catherinerolfson4830 28 дней назад

I learned that his paintings had a role in national parks being discovered. I have been to a lot of national parks in the western half of the United States and never knew this.

@user-oi8wt3rk6s 29 дней назад

I did not realize that Thomas Moran’s artwork helped the country gain its first National Park.

@jessdiamondpaints 29 дней назад

I learned who he was. I have seen some of his art but didn’t😅 know the artist at all. Thanks for the education!

@missstarsineyes 28 дней назад

Thank you for sharing about Moran, I don't think we learned about him during my Art History degree. I think it is interesting that he went on some of those exploratory trips in order to capture the beauty of the western states.
