I’m now retired and surviving cancer. I have a new 3 bedroom senior apt and turned one bdrm into my art room. Right now the struggle is to unbox and kit out all the shelves with my supplies. I like to do miniature pen and ink drawings and watercolor as well as papier-mâché animals and eggeury (turning real eggs into Fabergè-like treasures). I’m excited. I’ve never been to art school but here in Minnetonka Minnesota we have great art facilities. I’d like to take classes in figure drawing, pastels and bronze sculpture. Time is a thief. 🥰
I hope you take all the classes you want and make lots and lots of art!
I'm a superrealist oil painter.
I just wanted to tell you the satisfaction you get from art is unmatched, it literally is therapeutic.
I still get a thrill in drawing straight lines and circles.
Those simple shapes keep you grounded.
Keep doing what you do sir, you won't regret it.
Take good care now. ❤👍
i'm on my own course, with a lump hammer , some brick chisels and random tools. I'm really rubbish but I enjoy it immensely, making bronze age rock art, small temples and heads from bits of stone and wood I find, aswell as small things out of lapis lazuli and malachite. What a life for these people, who have the skill, the backing and the ability to learn and experiment under expert tutelidge. Chapeau !
I am a full time woodcarving teacher in Belgium and after 20 years still really passionate about my job.
So passionate that tears ran down my face, seeing this video.
Great job City of Guilds !!
If over here we could only have a small part of the appreciation you British have for your heritage .
Ken je hier gelijkaardige goede scholen in België voor volwassenonderwijs?
You don't know how creative you can be until you try. Beautiful work. Thanks for uploading.
Wish I had known of this school. Disappointed with the college I went to ( purposely for sculpture ) I walked away bored and disappointed. In the past several years I've started getting back with carving wood. Seeing the students being guided with selective challenges from the school, beautiful ! So much of the old world truly have a mentor / student relationship that is lacking here in the states. Thanks for a great video 🏆
A beautiful and seductive introduction to the course. Thoroughly enjoyable and enticing
I have been making Sculptors tools and Plastilkna for 60 years and this makes me continue to love what I do. Thank you so much! Bruner Sculpture House, Inc.
Wonderfully designed
Ten thousand hours of love
Beautiful results
My sculpture training was pretty crappy, this is how it should be done. Note also the emphasis on draftsmanship, it's the foundation of all visual arts and an extra bonus for sculptors is that theire drawings skills tend to be imnproved by sculpting
It’s so interesting to see how almost all of the students are “mature students”. You can certainly see how engaged and passionate they are - a far cry from many of the younger students who will not possibly pursue their craft. I may go back to school myself…
Wow, what a creative powerhouse. Back in the 70’s I studied typography and technical illustration to City and Guild’s level 2 (distinction!). If I had known about this course I would have jumped at the opportunity to enroll. Thanks for producing this video, for personal reasons it is one of the most thought provoking videos I have ever viewed on TH-cam. Here’s to another 100 yrs.
I am 40 and would love to start this
Ill help you learn. Im happy to share any information you need
@@BarefootViking Thank yu much appreciated yes please
@@shenlun do you have access to tools?
@@BarefootViking some tools
for woodcarving
This reminds me of my wonderful training at art school which was100% inspirational and amongst the happiest 6 years of my life and I've been happy and fulfilled ever since. I'm 80 now and still creating
hands down! all this Individuals are very Gifted!
I would have liked to put a heart on it, if that had been possible, because a place like this and what you do there is so remarkable and above all praise. I myself am a woodcarver and stonecutter, among other things, and I would have loved to work in a structure like yours. A thousand bravos and thank you!
SURE; REPEATING THE SAME MOTIVES OER AND OVER AGAIN IS REALLY AMAZING
Really I'm proud of at your art college, my name is Sthapathi S.DBhasksr, I am wait a traditional sculptor, till I live in mamallapuram thank you very much your video at TH-cam via it's really great wonderful marvelous excellent job,
I'm a wood sculptor here in California. I so wish there was a place like this here because I've spent most of my life teaching myself. It an up hill battle when it comes to carving here.
you guys are creating more than just art. youre creating history and honor and journeys. I used to say I carve stone and wood now I say try to.
I like to come here for a reality check every once in a while, when I feel like my self confidence starts to come back.
What a wonderful video hi-lighting these creative people
I would have absolutely LOVED to study there in my younger days. I only started carving after 30 and much of things shown are now familiar but it would have been so helpful to study modelling and design more. Awesome school, we don't have that here in the Netherlands
That hop wreath is beautiful.
Just fabulous. Thank you
Fantástico!
Adorei!
Queria eu poder passar um tempo aí. Amo arte, e ultimamente, escultura.
That drawing is fantastic. Changing the fabric hatching as it leaves and returns to the body is beautiful.
This is fantastic! What an amazing place, these students are doing masterpieces!!!
Great video.Impressive and passionate students (and amazed at the level of skill, even in the first years). BTW love the damning indictment of the skills of contemporary sculptors at 17:53 :-)
Il video è un ottimo esempio di come l'arte classica e figurativa, sopratutto ed unicamente direi, possa essere un antidoto potentissimo alla deriva che in occidente sta fagocitando ogni rivolo di bellezza. Il bello è brutto ed il brutto è bello...
This is AMAZING! Thanks so much. Steph
Very impressive...thanks for a view of whats happening.
Wonderful Work!
Awesome. Love it.
Lovely! Just grand.
Can you visit to see more works. This is all so beautiful.
Amazing
These people are seriously good.
within 10 seconds i hit that subscribe button
Maravilloso, me encantaria poder estar en esa escuela.
Thank you, BRIAM
fantastic video
Thanks!
Beautiful
Beautiful - you guys could team-up and have all those folks with too much money lined-up for tailor-made, 'historic' homes.
That looks like a really exciting school to study art! I wish I was a young man again!😃
I really don't think there is an age limit for studying...
Im 47 from India. Planning to join this school in sept 2023. Come and join. Lets start again.
Amazing such dream to be able to study in a place like that !! I guess one have to be rich to afford it
Holyfuckingshit these are some truly exceptional artisans
I wish I had known about this school 20 years ago, I'd actually be a carver not a gardener who has dabbled in carving
Lovely names one and all ...How the other half life eh ...top ho....
o thanks for yoyr enthousiasm
WONDERFULL
Wills woodcarving is beautiful
How I wish i could enroll in that school. Amazing
Come John I am enrolling... in sept 2023
@@thinkvertical what is the cost?
Well I wish I'd known this place existed before... now :/
Hello Master: What kind of wood are you using, what is this?. Thank you!!!
would be interesting to see how the stone carvers work alongside stonemasons ?
Video is good 💚👍
Are you doing any Notre Dame restoration work?
This kind of work was required for Rochdale Town hall. For volentry contribution. So I didn't bother.
Dang how cool
How long is this city and guilds carving course please?
All i need is a boat ride across the pond. A short stay of say, 4 years... A boat ride back across the pond, then takers for jobs over here.... YUP!
Modern art is such a huge waste of time for a serious artist. Thank God the atelier movement is bringing back REAL skills in order to make deeply satisfying art. So happy this young man woke up.
Arty!
Am very much passionate in carving from India. Can any teach me
They're good...
I m an architectural stonemason . I m guessing that before you can carve you gotta be able to draw ...
POR FAVOR HABRA EN IDIOMA ESPANOL
looks easy.. i wonder if it is.. hmmm🤔
Di validi insegnanti ce ne sempre di meno !! Quelli bravi sono a caro prezzo ! E gli artisti son gelosi delle loro tecniche !! Morale ?? Evviva l'ignoranza !!!
slight typo on 33 seconds
Oh yeah, I see that now. Good catch. How could you misspell “histrionic”?!
It's great to see tomorrow's artisans devoting their time and talents to this age-old profession. Especially now, with AI Art, CNC technology, and computer design with enhanced cutting and polishing capabilities. The only benefit of such is time-reducing qualities. Yet, the process of man-made feats to accomplish the desired effect is surrendered in that endeavor. I don't think I'm alone here, but, an artist's ability to use his mind and manual dexterity to produce fine detail and excellence is a matter I personally don't appreciate from other sources. The only question is: How much work is available in the market that requires the human touch exists for the number of new talent artists today to strive for? But I agree, such work is not work, but an expression of love and commitment to produce the final product to prove its value to all people who appreciate it!
Everyone here lipsmacks like their life depends on it.
The Best of Artists do not care about what the Stone include, To break the Marbles spell is all the mind, hand and Soul can do

3:29 I totally thought that was a goofy fruit face
Ah, yes. The art of not being able to fuck up even once. For extremely long periods per work of art.
Thomas... my dude....
Please tell me that "yealding" is an old english spelling.... 🤦
Do These students also get lessons in sucking their tongues between each sentence tsssss. Other than that very irritating thing it’s very impressive.
I think it's kind of sad that everything seems to be based on religion or historical upper classes. Every medium has some kind of relationship with religion and the upper classes. Early musical history in records going back to religious chanting (obviously there is folk music but of stuff on record, the oldest formal stuff is all from the church). Old pottery has depictions of greek gods. Old paintings are often of nobility or depicting relgious events. But these days music and fine art is more reflective of the modern world. Apart from this carving work. Sad.
This is all a joke right?
you dont need to go to a school to do art. i am shocked people spend money for something like this. i have never been or taken art classes and i have done stone and wood carving. its just about practice. oddly enough you get better with practice.
