Pearl reminds me so much of my Jack Russel that died 3 years ago. I haven't summoned the courage to get another dog because she was so special that I haven't got over losing her yet. She was my shadow, just as Pearl is yours.
At first, I simply thought this was a relaxing outdoors video (was linked to this from another website). But then you showed the process of carving the cane and... I was left speechless. You, sir, are an artist. Your carvings are absolutely beautiful. This is what you call art, not that modern stuff where they put a big block of rock and some discarded metal springs on a pedestal and call it an 'art installation'. I tip my hat to you!
I used to go out with my step-dad and collect wood for the winter as a teenager. It's therapeutic. Beautiful Copperhead stick you made today. Take are now. Kind regards. Liz.
Not only are you a master carver... I'm in awe of your painting skills and steady hand... Pearl makes me smile, the music is so soothing and your voice just puts the cherry on top... thank you for sharing these video's... I'm must starting out doing some woodworking...trying my hand at first with relief carvings...
I'm glad I ran across this channel there's a person in this comments section that said this helps their blood pressure and all it also helps me LOL it's so soothing and nice to watch thanks man for helping me out and I'll help you by subscribing
Your work is so beautiful they are so real looking and I love and enjoy every new walking stick you create. Please keep up the beautiful art and beautiful that God gave you. You have a beautiful soul.
Well done again, you are one with nature, and you seem at ease with your life, many people could learn from your example, I particularly like how you embrace modern carving techniques with traditional, to get the unique finish to your art. Long may you fill us with your peace.
Just thought I would let you know that your videos make an old Aussie very happy. I just started carving a few months ago and came across your channel. I have been watching you for a few weeks constantly. I am in awe of your beautiful work and your dedication to detail. Amazing work Mike.
Magnificent work Mike. That looked like a real Copper Head snake on your cane. Like I have said in some of your other videos, God has given you a talent you should be proud of. Take this talent and keep doing the magnificent work you do Mike. It makes me happy watching you do this work and it should make others happy as well. Good Bless you and your family Mike. Mike Brady
Beautiful video. Theresa did awesum whistling in the background and your guitar music was so appropriate for such pleasant scenes. You've got a lot more talents than cutting firewood.
i tuoi video mettono pace nell'anima il tuo cagnolino è fantastico! la natura dove vivi è sublime! le opere che escono dalle tue mani dalla materia sono genuine, vere,senza fronzoli,sono pure reali la materia diventa realtà è straordinario... tutto.... tu il tuo cane... il rapporto con la natura è davvero bello. Anch'io sono un artista e per questo comprendo la fatica delle tue opere ammiro moltissimo le tue capacità sono davvero felice di vedere i tuoi video c'è così bisogno in questo mondo della tua semplicità
Sorry Sir for not having my picture with my comments. Not that I did not want to it was because I was to stupid to know how. I got help and fixed it. I simply love you sharing your art with us. the extreme detail in your work show how much you love it. Merry Christmas
Haha! It's good to see you Rodney! I really enjoy making these videos and getting acquainted with so many great folks. Thanks for the kind words, and I hope you have a Merry Christmas too!
Awesome work my friend, I enjoy watching all that you include on your videos. I love Mother Nature and the beauty she brings us. I'd also like to see more of the carving your doing. Include more of that in your videos. Please sir
Yes sir anytime I've watched just about everyone of your videos. I'd like to just sit with ya on the porch and pick my banjo while you carve and jaw a little. That'd be a good time
there is some mush peace on this videos. I been follow you for a little bit and every time I wacht your videos I feel so much peace and I just want a cup of coffee too. please keep this awesome job that you do and thanks for so much enjoyment.
Stinnett, you always give me inspiration to carve and be creative, especially with the background music and the hard working attitude you put out. It reminds me of my papa! Thank you for that
I've always been so envious of those with artistic talents and yours is an amazing one. Watching you live and work just makes me realize how much my life is lacking. Not sure how you find time to carve what with answering all of these comments. Thank you for sharing. P.S I subscribed.
You seem to know your animals. That is a pleasure in itself. Excellent detail. Most of the copperheads I found in Texas have some green color on their tails.
Wow! Absolutely blown away! Gorgeous, gorgeous carving! Really enjoyed spending the time with you and Pearl. I've got three little dogs: Dusty is 13 and weighs 8 pounds, Inky is 12 and weighs 11 pounds, and Manny the Dorkie Yorkie is 8 and weighs just under 6 pounds. Little dogs are awesome; please give Pearl a hug from all of us. Thank you for posting your video; I've subscribed and look forward to more!
I have anxiety and your videos help me calm down after particularly hard attacks, thank you so much for what you do and you're amazing. Keep doing what you love and I look forward to more of your videos
Lovely sharing your day Mike.... thanks so much for sharing... so relaxing to watch you LOL! especially as I'm on the sofa while you chop the firewood!!!! : ) ya sure you got enough water with that coffee lol!!! mind you... you need a strong one after all that hard work! : ) thanks again ...and the snake is beautiful .... : ) Pearls learning lots of new tricks too ...clever girl : )
Yeah, Pearl's learning a few new ticks now and then. She's especially good about it if there's a treat on hand : ) lol !! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comment!
I know it's not a North American snake, but would you consider doing a Gaboon Viper cane or walking stick? The markings on those snakes are truly proof of God's artistry. Thank you for your videos sir, your talents and artistry are phenominal, and I look forward to each new one.
You make amazing sticks and really great video love peril she is adorable I have little dogs and love them more then I could ever like another humen just the fact if I leave for 30 minutes you think I left for years and have large personalities for little dogs
Beautiful work as usual. Looks like your little dog is very well trained and loves to help you out. Please keep your videos coming l thoroughly enjoy them, reminds me of the NC mountains that I miss so much.
Thank you, Jeffery! Pearl really learns fast! Especially if you have a treat for her ;) I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
