    Really wonderful to see these together in a video and wish I could visit. However, I'm wondering if I were to get there and sign up for a tour, would there be music playing at the same time as the guide gave their talk? I don't recall any museum ever having piped in music unless it was a critical part of the exhibition but in a video the practice persists unaccountably. Please consider the underlying music here to be as distracting as it'd be if played during real time. Especially for those with hard of hearing issues, any kind of music at any volume, even as low as you have it here, can be an issue. Here, it was more than obvious when it was paused (a relief!) and then started up again (curses!). Not only is it a fallacious myth that all videos made today require a soundtrack under speech, the reverse actually makes for a far better video when someone speaking makes up the majority of the overall sound track. A little music at the beginning and the end is like having matching bookends but you wouldn't place them in-between books, right? Thank you for your consideration on this, at least. Again, love seeing watercolor artwork finally coming into its rightful place in the art world, and thank you for helping toward that.
