I give you a lot of credit, David, for not only turning what looked like a piece of junk into an incredible work of art, but also for sticking with this project through its myriad of frustrations and challenges. Job well done!
Those "frustrations" were Mother Nature's way of saying "stop making things from my beautiful trees". It's because of people like him that there's a massive increase in blood clots and heart attacks from Global Warming.
@@DavidAdamsen Here is the message they sent “I got something special for you. Message me directly using the above name to claim your prize.” This was a telegram message. I will put the link in my next comment. I will go and copy it.
The idea of NOT hiding the "break". Opening the idea of broken to something better. Is the term you used for the Chinese/Japanese rapairs to pottery and the like ( not sure of the origin ). Looks exactly right. Don't hide "mistakes". Own them, and show how you learned from them. Love it. It's funny. A wood and faux glass pot actually can inspire. THAT is why this is great work. Not mass produced for profit. Uniquely made for pure love and demonstration of understanding and skill. Worth every moment watching.
I agree that it is gorgeous, and had I the tools, I would consider trying something similar inspired by this video, but I happen to love how tree roots look in their natural form as well and have a bunch of them decorating my cabin in the forest, both inside and outside :D All from trees that died on their own, or at least without me playing an active part in their death. Just like how I have a few decorative animal skulls from animals I didn't kill, since I don't kill any living being knowingly. But I still love how these skulls and roots look, and how wonderful nature shaped them for their function.
@@farzanatasneem To me those names are almost interchangeable. I live in nature and nature lives within me. I exist within a universe, and a universe exists within me. Whatever "I" and "me" means. I have gained "supernatural" powers through reconnecting with nature, which I consider to be the will of life itself (the "fatherly" spark) given physical form and "born" in the ("motherly") material in this case, or in the spiritual, the thought. So yeah, if you would put it in words assuming the fatherly, that shaped started it, is god, you could say god shaped them. But I'm on good terms with all of the just ones, myself included, as I am part of them, part of One in solidarity, one of them, and a solitary individual all at once, love my brothers and sisters as I love myself, be they ants or whales or birds or trees, all born from the same "father" and "mother", through the same harmony, and I don't take orders from anyone. I live and let live. So no, I won't say that on command, not even when it came directly from them, and it won't offend them if they are kind, rightfully arrogant AND exemplary humble, as they know me, taught me, and learn through me. "They" don't "work" that way. They, or we, have free will and are not obedient slaves. That would be an offense to the one you resemble, represent, ARE, and got your free will from. I am not a god fearing man. I am a loving man with the power to judge and execute and take responsibility for my actions, and change my ways should I judge them unjust, no matter if that goes against the terror of humanity and/or the accepted beliefs of what "god" is. If said "god" thinks he can overrule my free will and judgement with power and punishment, he can join all the other false authorities in trying, but he won't be able to, and will lose my faith in him just as the others. These are "my" words, just as much as they are yours, I just hope they helped you understand my perspective, my experience, my message, and you will refrain from enforcing anyone's will as my command, my "law", unless I stole their freedom or their life. If god were a physical being towering over me telling me to say he's great, I would tell him the same. But god is none of that. And I know what I am. ... That said, I wish you an interesting experience and valuable lessons. And joy in rest and harmony.
This was totally a “trust the process” video!! I’m amazed by the creative craftsmanship, and honestly the mediums you’re using to bring your ideas to life! I have a new-found appreciation for this art form after watching all the way through! Well done 👏🏻👏🏻
The man is like Rembrandt with wood. I am not a craftsman by any means, but I was mesmerized by the magical transformation of what look like disposable shrubbery into a work of art. Oh how I envy the gifted.😊
I must admit when you first started I had some serious doubts it would be very attractive when you got done but I was very wrong. It's a beautiful work of art. I can't imagine how many hours you have invested in that piece. Bravo sir.
I had the honor of growing up in a household of woodworkers and spent what felt like my entire childhood, sanding EVERYTHING! But I truly wish that my grandfather and uncle were alive today to see this work of art...they would be stunned. The entire process is amazing and I'm glad I didn't have to sand it!!!
I was totally riveted to this entire video. I've never watched anything like this before. The imagination, the vision in the minds eye to see this in a mangled old shrub root, and the talent to create it is truly amazing.
When you added the gold resin to the part that was weakened it reminded me of kintsugi, the Japanese art in which gold is used to repair pottery. Which is also part of a beautiful philosophy to stay optimistic when things fall apart and accept flaws. This is a very beautiful piece!
I'm so glad videos like this are here for people like me to see. Sometimes we walk into a shop and see an item like this with a what we see as a extremly high price. Watching how much skill it takes to bring something like this to the public is impotant. By knowing part of the process and the skills needed, price no longer is as an important part as is how much you admire the talent and the beauty of the piece of Art.
@@karlwithak. So sad but very true. Young kids these days do not realize what kind of money that their parents and grandparents pass down, that now is worth a lot of money and a just have a dumpster put in front of the house to clear it out. Basically just went through it myself. So sad
@@karlwithak. So.... it doesn't diminish the value of the work to "dad and dad-friends" or of the art. That's why art is subjective, and no one is forcing you to either like it or buy it, whether I think it's amazing (I do), or bizarre, or worth $5K to me, or maybe not to you. Or don't call it art, call it amazing craftsmanship, or don't call it anything at all. Just don't pretend it's still garbage or that the technique and work here aren't fantastic. I have a couple of projects I cherish that I think are worth a lot, my heirs and their heirs may not. Even da Vinci painted over many of his canvases or tossed them or re-did them. Now we wonder how could he not know their worth.... subjective, and time.
What a gorgeous piece! It started out a filthy mess so I didn't know what to expect but you made something so beautiful out of it. I love the thick glossy finish. Fantastic work, David!
That’s how everything is in this world that’s how we start. We’re kind of a filthy mass until we get cleaned up and then we’re quite beautiful. Everything else in this world.
@@DavidAdamsen YOU ARE SO WELCOME, I WAS SHOWING MY HUSBAND AND THIS BLEW HIM AWAY. HE WAS GLUED TO THE SCREEN. YOU HAVE A GIFT AND, YOU KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. I WILL STAY TUNED TO YOUR GREAT PROJECTS.
So intriguing to watch how things are actually made! I never would have known! My granny used to say, "If you aren’t learning something new everyday, you aren’t really living." You taught me something new today, so I thank you! 😊
I learned something to, but there are not a lot of people who can do what we just watched. Amazing. I'd love to have one as well. ... Maybe you could get a part of the trees that fell in Augusta, Georgia at the Master's and do something.😊 ...Hey, even though you may be laughing, it's a thought.😊

OMG 😍 😲 😱 WOW!!! One of the most exceptional, beautiful, and amazing pieces of art I've ever seen. I'm in awe , of what you did with a tree stump/ 🌳 Roots. Very lovely. You are truly gifted 💜
When this started I was like oh man this is gonna be so interesting and then I saw the choice of colors for the body of the vase and I got skeptical but then as it all started to come together I was like "oh dang, this might actually be the most amazing vase I've ever seen in my entire life
Давид, ты великолепен!!! Твои изделия - это произведения искусства!🔥🔥🔥 Меня поражает, как ты видишь и создаёшь красоту!!!👏 С нетерпением жду ещё твои видео! Ещё, ещё и ещё!!!😍😍😍
this randomly popped up on my feed and i had no idea what i was getting into when i clicked.. but WOW! that was so cool hahahha, thanks David! keep spreading your light and gifts my friend ✌💙
Whoa. This video brings to mind a story I read many years ago about a sculptor (Michelangelo, Rodin?) who could “see” a creation inside a block of stone before he ever even picked up the chisel. How you envisioned the vase emerging from that gnarled root ball is beyond my imagination. The whole process is an exercise in patience, creativity, and personal fortitude. Kudos.
Michelangelo - the sculpture is always in the stone all he did was remove what’s not needed. He also did the back of sculptures that would never be seen by Joe Public.. when asked why …. ‘because he would know ‘ …
It was wonderful to see your technical expertise combined with your artistic vision. I like the fact that the final piece felt so organic and wasn't overpowered by space age materials.
Stunning piece of art. I had no idea something like this was so labor-intensive. I will be much more appreciative of the time and labor artists put into their work from now on.
This is a really lovely thing. I'm a maintenance gardener, i'm chucking away unwanted shrubs like this all the time, big shame. Great to see one made into art
I so appreciate you posting the details of both what did and didn’t work instead of just the successes, makes watching you work both a more in-depth and enjoyable learning experience!
Wow David this is all so impressive!! Your vision in seeing the vase… all the process of creating it.. and the amazing video/documentation of it all ! Well done ❤
The patience you have in creating this beautiful piece. My dad had a lathe and as a child I did not appreciate what he might have been feeling as he worked at it. He’s gone now, abd I think back on things he did that were just him. Woodworking, photography, grilling. He wasn’t just a breadwinner, there were things that filled his soul.
Please show us the final piece in it's final show room or at least in a draped box that only shows the art work w/o machinery as a background. Was your vision for this piece to be a vase, a lamp base or just a sculpture alone? The process was amazing. Thanks for sharing it!
I clicked on this video just meaning to run it ahead to see the end result. Instead, I was so fascinated I watched it all the way through, twice. Beautiful and fascinating.
Hey I just came across your channel. I live in maine too. This is the first video i ever saw as of now. You do absolutely beautiful work. I went in totally blind. Not reading the description, channel or comments so i wasnt sure wth u were doin at first. Im glad i stuck around lol. Just beautiful. Now I'll go binge!!
The piece is beautiful and your comments about your "learning curve" were enlightening (and honest). I could not bring myself to stop watching. I hope you are proud of your work. P.S. It was good to learn that you had replacements and advice from the companies from whom you had purchased items.
That was very interesting, it turned out very nice, you must have quite the imagination, because it took me a while to figure out where he was going with it. 😊
Looks like tremendous amount of patience and time put into this piece. Interesting how you "cored" it out, a lot of precision work. I like the wood grains and accents coming thru the glass.
So many times I have seen you create something so stunningly beautiful that the rest of us poor mortals just scoff and say, ‘It can’t be done!’ You then calmly and methodically proceed to do just that. This one however is beyond the pale. The hardships along the way merely provided opportunities to further gild the lily. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us YTers who love to watch your skills grow.
No way to compare my work with this piece of art but I know the feeling when working with this kind of wood with my primitive tools. I never use resins but I rarely know the final result which comes oon the way. So dangerous when working on irregular wood trying to hollow it. (Both for my hands and the wood). Videos of this kind provides inspiration. Thanks
Such a dangerous piece of wood to carve, I am so curious about the 4 different colors of resin in the beginning and the final color. It’s also amazing that you used three different brands of resin in the whole project. I am mesmerized!😮
I could not stop watching! Partly in awe, partly in terror of what came next. Your skill and patience is amazing and the result is a beautiful piece of art that could never be reproduced.
I don't know how I found this video but I am thoroughly intrigued. I wanted to fast forward to see the finished product, but I'm so invested in the process ☺️

I can't even begin to comprehend how that magnificent piece was first envisioned and then actually created. The number of steps to the final masterpiece is simply unreal. I do not know how it would even be possible to affix a fair price for something of that unique level of skill and creativity. Whatever is decided, it is worth even more.
Your woodworking is amazing. You have such talent to see what is hidden inside a tree trunk and bring to life. Thank you for sharing it with those of us who view your valuable work.
A genius at Work, just mind Boggling the thought process , the effort, the creativity, patience , perfection to detail, just cannot keep adding adjectives. hats off, lot to learn from others, this is one such masterpiece.
Beautiful piece of art from a beautiful being who follows his mind and heart's vision with such inspiration, technicity, patience, and tenacity for an inedit creation. The video in itself is a gift. Thank you!
Wow! I've never seen anything like it, the detail & craftsmanship is amazing! & very beautiful. What a great gift to have & thankyou for sharing how it's achieved. I will have much more of an appreciation for how much time goes into creating things of beauty & how that's reflected in the cost. That was one of the most unique & unusual things l've seen in a long time, but it's lovely to see hand crafted things. I'm not a fan of modern things for your home & appreciate second hand & unusual things. I hope the people receive it with love & enjoy! it, as it's definitely a lifetime piece. Marvellous! 🥰
Tell your daughter the truth! The shrub got killed for the sake of stupid art. Tell her the truth of global warming, pollution, climate change. How affects the animals and us people as well. How ignorant people like the man in the video are responsible for Earth's doom!
I just through watching this and by the end my mouth was on the floor. I just came across your channel the other day. You are a wonderful artist. And it's amazing how you could see the beauty that really ugly root system was hiding. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful--I like the way you work! Thank you for sharing this. I think the owner likes it that hundreds of thousands of people watched her piece being made! --> That's a cool bonus. Keep up the good work--I know you will.
THIS was absolutely glorious to journey with you. It felt for me, like taking a ride and trusting the driver to an unknown destination, while being open to whatever was found on the other side. The finished production... a soul stirring contribution of worlds, come together in harmony... and the spirit song sang, did infact move me... deeply. Well done indeed. So grateful to have crossed this unexpected path.
Wow this is the absolute of a craftsmanship. I cannot see anyone who could not admire the talent one would need to have to to turn this. David you are so fortunate. I can not take my eyes of this piece of art.❤
Absolutely astounding, I will never get over the way something so beautiful can be made as long as you are experienced enough to make it. You are amazing.
That was incredible! I had no idea what to expect and it turned out even cooler than I thought it would. Thanks for showing us the process of making such a gorgeous piece!

When this started I was like oh man this is gonna be so interesting and then I saw the choice of colors for the body of the vase and I got skeptical but then as it all started to come together I was like "oh dang, this might actually be the most amazing vase I've ever seen in my entire life
Thats what I love about art, just gotta trust the process♡

Hard work and beautiful outcone

Давид, ты великолепен!!! Твои изделия - это произведения искусства!🔥🔥🔥 Меня поражает, как ты видишь и создаёшь красоту!!!👏 С нетерпением жду ещё твои видео! Ещё, ещё и ещё!!!😍😍😍
this randomly popped up on my feed and i had no idea what i was getting into when i clicked.. but WOW! that was so cool hahahha, thanks David! keep spreading your light and gifts my friend ✌💙
Thanks!
Incredible skill with that lathe. Watching that spin was downright scary. What an amazing one of a kind piece of art!
Whoa. This video brings to mind a story I read many years ago about a sculptor (Michelangelo, Rodin?) who could “see” a creation inside a block of stone before he ever even picked up the chisel. How you envisioned the vase emerging from that gnarled root ball is beyond my imagination. The whole process is an exercise in patience, creativity, and personal fortitude. Kudos.
Michelangelo - the sculpture is always in the stone all he did was remove what’s not needed.
He also did the back of sculptures that would never be seen by Joe Public.. when asked why …. ‘because he would know ‘ …
Michelangelo. Please check this with the I PRIGIONI on internet:)
А может он эту вазу и не представлял. Просто делал. Такая получилась. Импровизировал.
It was wonderful to see your technical expertise combined with your artistic vision. I like the fact that the final piece felt so organic and wasn't overpowered by space age materials.
Wow! There is a lot going on with this work of art and beauty. I could just watch it spin and spin. Thank you for your creativity skill.
I could watch this forever, such amazing problem solving and craftsmanship
I admire you not only for your creativity but also for your persistence. Great piece of art wood and resin.
Thank you very much!
Stunning piece of art. I had no idea something like this was so labor-intensive. I will be much more appreciative of the time and labor artists put into their work from now on.
Thanks 🤌👊
Off the charts, Brother. Beast. Beast mode. Epic. Pure Chrystalline, Complete. My sincerest compliments. @@DavidAdamsen
This is a really lovely thing. I'm a maintenance gardener, i'm chucking away unwanted shrubs like this all the time, big shame. Great to see one made into art
Well thank you. Shrubs like this often have a lot of junk stuck in them, so I learned why no one does this.
@DavidAdamsen lol it's true it's a problem I face too actually
If I had not watched this video - I WOULD BE TOTALLY CLUELESS as to how much work and planning and skill was involved with this piece! STUNNING!
I so appreciate you posting the details of both what did and didn’t work instead of just the successes, makes watching you work both a more in-depth and enjoyable learning experience!
The video was amazing. The visual and auditory experience was as creative and interesting as the object you created!!
th-cam.com/video/EqoI3a2yAEg/w-d-xo.html&feature=shares
Wow David this is all so impressive!! Your vision in seeing the vase… all the process of creating it.. and the amazing video/documentation of it all ! Well done ❤
Thanks so much!
The patience you have in creating this beautiful piece. My dad had a lathe and as a child I did not appreciate what he might have been feeling as he worked at it. He’s gone now, abd I think back on things he did that were just him. Woodworking, photography, grilling. He wasn’t just a breadwinner, there were things that filled his soul.
He sounds like a wonderful father.
Please show us the final piece in it's final show room or at least in a draped box that only shows the art work w/o machinery as a background. Was your vision for this piece to be a vase, a lamp base or just a sculpture alone? The process was amazing. Thanks for sharing it!
I clicked on this video just meaning to run it ahead to see the end result. Instead, I was so fascinated I watched it all the way through, twice. Beautiful and fascinating.
Exactly! Me too!!
Same here
💔🥀🚶

See, people come together over beauty.
Это реально крутая работа. Я впервые вижу чтоб кто-то делал что-то подобное. Я восхищен вашим мастерством, это потрясающая работа.
Hey I just came across your channel. I live in maine too. This is the first video i ever saw as of now. You do absolutely beautiful work. I went in totally blind. Not reading the description, channel or comments so i wasnt sure wth u were doin at first. Im glad i stuck around lol. Just beautiful. Now I'll go binge!!
Thanks so much!
@@DavidAdamsen you are so welcome. Honestly I'm thinking about getting one of your beautiful creations. 💓
The piece is beautiful and your comments about your "learning curve" were enlightening (and honest). I could not bring myself to stop watching. I hope you are proud of your work. P.S. It was good to learn that you had replacements and advice from the companies from whom you had purchased items.
Thank you very much!
That was very interesting, it turned out very nice, you must have quite the imagination, because it took me a while to figure out where he was going with it. 😊
Looks like tremendous amount of patience and time put into this piece. Interesting how you "cored" it out, a lot of precision work. I like the wood grains and accents coming thru the glass.
Beautifully crafted exquisite piece
This was utterly captivating and the finished piece is gorgeous!
This is straight to the point
All I can say about this gorgeous piece of art is: stunningly beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talent with us!
This helped me appreciate how much hard work goes into art. No wonder it can be so valuable!
This is a prime example of craftmanship, skill and talent plus extremely creative wood turning I have ever seen. Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!
Wow, thank you, George!
So many times I have seen you create something so stunningly beautiful that the rest of us poor mortals just scoff and say, ‘It can’t be done!’ You then calmly and methodically proceed to do just that. This one however is beyond the pale. The hardships along the way merely provided opportunities to further gild the lily. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us YTers who love to watch your skills grow.
I really enjoy your poetic manner of speaking. Perhaps you are also an artist given the way you use words?
@@iamV10010 at first I read "pathetic" instead of "poetic", i had to re read that just to make sure I wasn't crazy. Turns out I can't read
No way to compare my work with this piece of art but I know the feeling when working with this kind of wood with my primitive tools. I never use resins but I rarely know the final result which comes oon the way. So dangerous when working on irregular wood trying to hollow it. (Both for my hands and the wood). Videos of this kind provides inspiration. Thanks
@@iamV10010 going by their name and the use of “beyond the pale” I suspect they may be Irish. And sure we are all poets dontcha know
Such a dangerous piece of wood to carve, I am so curious about the 4 different colors of resin in the beginning and the final color. It’s also amazing that you used three different brands of resin in the whole project. I am mesmerized!😮
I could not stop watching! Partly in awe, partly in terror of what came next. Your skill and patience is amazing and the result is a beautiful piece of art that could never be reproduced.
Thank Ir
I think it could be reproduced.
I have NEVER seen anything like the finished piece!! What an amazing piece of art! I’m glad I watched the whole video. You are very talented, sir.
Your a master, this is a one of a kind masterpiece, BRAVO.
Thank you!
I love the kintsugi effect joining the split seam of the epoxy resin and the tree bark. The piece was definitely worth saving. Beautiful work.
Thank you!
Honestly the most gut wrenching turn video I've ever seen... I was just hoping the entire time it didn't break. Beautiful job!
I don't know how I found this video but I am thoroughly intrigued. I wanted to fast forward to see the finished product, but I'm so invested in the process ☺️
David , Awesome brother ! I really enjoyed watching you perform this piece to it's elegant beauty. Thanks a lot 👍💯%
Thank you!!
Crazy that you were attempting that by hand but even crazier that you were so successful! Lots of skill!
This absolutely terrifies me watch you spin those types of logs. Amazing work, true inspiration
I was on the edge of my seat for the entire video waiting for disaster. Glad you survived unscathed! What a result-true artistry!
Was gonna watch your video but your ad is trying to take away my favorite gun. No thanks
@@harrisonbaker6409 you ding dong, TH-cam algorithms send you ads based on your own preferences, not the content providers. Maybe you should reconsider your life choices.
It's absolutely breathtaking. I was captivated. I could look at it all day. You're a unique and I hope you continue to grace us with the gift you possess.
I really like the dramatic way that it is filmed. Keeps your interest and shows all the different ways and angles that you do. Very gorgeous piece of artwork. You are definitely a fine artist.
I really appreciate that, Leah!
@@DavidAdamsen did you get my other messages about someone wanting me to reply to a telegram link? Said it was you and that you had a prize for me. I knew it was a scam, but I wanted to let you know.
@@pea1andHim Thanks for letting me know. That’s definitely not me. Sorry about that. I have been trying to delete all of those comments and report them. Thanks for being vigilant!
@@DavidAdamsen There were loads of those coments, been deleteing all i could find, also somone called smith rolin8 who was making comments to the ladies who commented here, left him a message, woodturner myself, i would not even attempt what you did, splendid piece.
Это шедевр. Какой мастер! Какое произведение!
Интересно, по чём продаёт.
Now this is a piece of art worth admiring.
Just discovered this channel...shared your video with 3 people. So remarkable ❤💜🧡
Wow, thank you!
I can't even begin to comprehend how that magnificent piece was first envisioned and then actually created. The number of steps to the final masterpiece is simply unreal. I do not know how it would even be possible to affix a fair price for something of that unique level of skill and creativity. Whatever is decided, it is worth even more.
Considering he's got 29M views on his video, even at a low $5 ad revenue per thousand views. He's earned between $150k-$200k for this video. 👏🏼 👏🏼
@@vavaloiomv8952 $5 per thousand is not low lol
😲That's beautiful, David! Lots of work, but well worth it. Very nicely done!
Thanks so much, my friend!
Meu Deus!!! Que trabalheira!!! É muito talento e paciência. Uma verdadeira obra de arte. Parabéns!!!
Maşallah muhteşem ellerinize sağlık
Muito trabalho mesmo, na verdade um desperdício de trabalho eu acho.

Your woodworking is amazing. You have such talent to see what is hidden inside a tree trunk and bring to life. Thank you for sharing it with those of us who view your valuable work.
Thank you very much!
A genius at Work, just mind Boggling the thought process , the effort, the creativity, patience , perfection to detail, just cannot keep adding adjectives. hats off, lot to learn from others, this is one such masterpiece.
Вау! Само по себе корневище уже было красивым, а в умелых руках НАСТОЯЩЕГО МАСТЕРА стало изящным произведением искусства! БРАВО МАСТЕРУ!
💚❤💚
Beautiful piece of art from a beautiful being who follows his mind and heart's vision with such inspiration, technicity, patience, and tenacity for an inedit creation. The video in itself is a gift. Thank you!
Wow! I've never seen anything like it, the detail & craftsmanship is amazing! & very beautiful.
What a great gift to have & thankyou for sharing how it's achieved. I will have much more of an appreciation for how much time goes into creating things of beauty & how that's reflected in the cost.
That was one of the most unique & unusual things l've seen in a long time, but it's lovely to see hand crafted things. I'm not a fan of modern things for your home & appreciate second hand & unusual things. I hope the people receive it with love & enjoy! it, as it's definitely a lifetime piece. Marvellous! 🥰
Thank you Alison!
One of my ambitions in life is to own one of your pieces. This is beautiful!
We don’t usually watch this kind of thing. But my 11-yr old daughter and I were amazed watching a shrub root turn into this astounding work of art!
Guess what she's going to want for Christmas!
Tell your daughter the truth! The shrub got killed for the sake of stupid art. Tell her the truth of global warming, pollution, climate change. How affects the animals and us people as well. How ignorant people like the man in the video are responsible for Earth's doom!
Had a sense of feeling that this would be turned into a vase. Time+patience+skill+dedication= beauty of art 🎨
Just saw your channel today, & this vase is Stunning! Thank you for sharing your amazing work! 🤩😍♥️
Thanks so much!
This became a art piece for sure. Thank you also for explaining the mistakes.
This vessel is gorgeous! I am so glad you persevered through all of the challenges and completed it.
I just through watching this and by the end my mouth was on the floor. I just came across your channel the other day. You are a wonderful artist. And it's amazing how you could see the beauty that really ugly root system was hiding. Thank you for sharing.
Hello
Beautiful--I like the way you work! Thank you for sharing this. I think the owner likes it that hundreds of thousands of people watched her piece being made! --> That's a cool bonus. Keep up the good work--I know you will.
Thank you very much! I hope so! And I will.
This has to be the most beautiful thing I have ever seen someone make. 🎉
A lot of things are called art these days. This piece deserves the name.
I would want this on the little table in front of my glass trophy case containing my Emmy awards and Oscars.
Because yeah.
@@protorhinocerator142 if you only had any of them lol.
@@mainebearhunter3444 Minor detail
I kind of feel the opposite, lol. He just turned a hunk of wood into a hunk of resin.
@@clintonleonard5187
Also a point of view 🤷🏼♀️
THIS was absolutely glorious to journey with you.
It felt for me, like taking a ride and trusting the driver to an unknown destination, while being open to whatever was found on the other side.
The finished production... a soul stirring contribution of worlds, come together in harmony... and the spirit song sang, did infact move me... deeply.
Well done indeed.
So grateful to have crossed this unexpected path.
Wow!! I have never seen such beautiful craftsmanship. Wish I had this in my home. You’re truly blessed to have such a creative mind.
Thank you so much!
Потрясающе красивая ваза! Какой искуссный необычайно креативный дизайн!!! Талант и воплощение в жизнь задуманного стоит восхищения! БРАВО АВТОР!!!
Wow this is the absolute of a craftsmanship. I cannot see anyone who could not admire the talent one would need to have to to turn this. David you are so fortunate. I can not take my eyes of this piece of art.❤
Absolutely astounding, I will never get over the way something so beautiful can be made as long as you are experienced enough to make it. You are amazing.
I truly wish it was mine you are an artist in the truest sense of the word.
Thank you for sharing.
That was incredible! I had no idea what to expect and it turned out even cooler than I thought it would. Thanks for showing us the process of making such a gorgeous piece!
