To be honest this story of how you came to be where you are in the world of Ukiyo-e could be a movie. It has everything! It has comedy, suspense, romance, action (I'm sure you could pretend to fight a monster or something). I smell an Oscar!
I'm very sure he did fight a couple of monsters, as we all have to at some point. By hearing him talk and seeing his progress, it looks like he's winning the fight.
39:10 - This has hit me hard and I listen to this small section every day. Trying to fulfill a dream of my own, hearing this come from such a soft, gentle and warm soul, means everything. You are a talented man, David. I don't think you know how many of us come here just to see your work and listen to your voice. Please don't stop.
Smut Brush blech how dare people relax everyone should use their energy to dislike things that don’t affect them like I do because I’m a fucking moron. Thanks for the input bud.
You're like a more personal Bob Ross that works with a chisel instead of a brush. You're a true treasure, Dave, and though I just discovered you today, I've been binge watching you and you didn't bore me for a second.
I honestly didn't think that I was going to watch the whole video but Dave is so interesting and the way that he speaks is so intriguing and almost has a calming effect to just sit down and listen to his wonderful stories. Thank you so much for taking the time to do another one of these videos. It really warms my heart!
David, you've planted the seed of wood working into my mind with your first story video I watched a long time ago. I truly believe you're a huge inspiration too many people such as myself to take up the craft in some form or another. (Japanese wood block prints or otherwise) These stories are a true treasure and a joy to listen to. I imagine they're quite difficult to create, but thank you for sharing them with us all.
David, Your looks and your voice and way of storytelling remind me so much of my father who passed when I was younger. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with all of us! These videos bring me a type of nostalgia and peace that is so special to me.
I've been watching your Meaning(s) of Life video far more times than I would like to admit. This is another amazing video to watch and learn about your life and passions. Dave san the loving gaze you gave to that woodblock when you mentioned that 'That's it that's me, that is these things that we've got collected here and that's the story' The passion in your face and the conviction in your voice is mind blowing. Thank you ever so much for making these videos in between your busy schedule. I'm off to watch part 2 now.
Aside from how interesting your story is one of my favourite aspects of this video and all of your videos for that matter is your delivery when narrating. It's extremely clear that you love your work and it puts a smile on my face every time I hear you share your love of woodblock prints
I have been waiting for your story video for so long! I loved every minute of it and can't wait for part 2! The print with the lady behind the curtain is mesmerizing! Thank you Dave for teaching us so much about woodblock prints. Arigato
All those stories about leaving the old life behind, finding that spark which motivates your life and embarking towards the huge unknown... It is so inspiring. Thanks for sharing your life stories!
Thank you for these videos Mr. Bull. I frequently watch your videos in the background while working. Your voice is soothing and relaxing. It’s a big stress reliever and allows me to actually focus more. Consequently I’ve learned more about wood block carving and printing that I never knew I had an interest in. Thank you for your videos. I could listen to you tell stories for hours.
Great video David, its great to see you back here on RUclips. I visited your shop around mid June, I was the British guy with long hair if that helps narrow it down, it was a pleasure to chat to you while I was there and will surely visit again when I'm next in Tokyo.
Nothing makes me happier than listening to someone speak with passion on pretty much any topic. This was inspiring. My passion is crochet and my partner and I are somewhat aimlessly adrift right now. We like to create things, but right now it.doesn't pay the bills.
I am still rather new to your site, David and am seeing vids out of order. Must say, you have a beautiful obsession with these prints and their priduction. I developed a liking fir them in my 20s and decades later, during a period of severe depression, a rediscovery of them and reading how they were made and why helped me back onto my feet. I agree with you that these works rank among the most beautiful works ever done. They influenced the impressionist movement. I am going to continue following you. You are a great storyteller.
I love these nostalgic videos. Learning about different cultures on the other side of the world 30-40 years ago is pretty cool. Keep up the great videos!
Awesome content!!! I have found that all the best Real informative RUclips channels is to find the one that don't stuff them full of 'commercials'. Very much respect from Vancouver 🇨🇦🤞🏼🤞🏼
Such an unexpected joy to have discovered your videos David. Have long been an admirer of woodblock prints - my father introduced them to me as a small boy living in Hong Kong during the 1950s - and during the past decade, as a retiree, have had the good fortune to enjoy several trips to Japan. Hearing your journey, seeing some of your treasures, exploring a little of the processes involved, has been so inspiring. Goose bumps territory mate! Many thanks for sharing. Look forward to viewing all of your videos (hope to download them too) and know the experience will be memorably wonderful. Love the way you teach and your enthusiasm is infectious. Regards from a Down-under fan. Carl
A great pleasure to meet you again It is true as say Shawn Johnson you are a fantastic and passionate storyteller and a MASTER in this very difficult art of wood engraving !!! So thanks for all !! merci beaucoup David
What a great story David. I have been following you on Instagram for a few years as I love woodblock prints and shinhanga especially. Recently I am finally trying to learn making woodblock prints myself as a hobby. I'm stuck home for months as many people are.. I clicked on this thinking it is a tutorial. Not what I was looking for but I couldn't stop watching!! Can't remember the last time I watched any RUclips video for this long in one sitting. What a beautiful and inspiring journey you had. I can't imagine the courage you'd need to completely change your life, especially in the old days without much information or resources to adapt to a foreign culture. I was imaging in my head what it was like when you and your family moved to Japan for the first time and going through the department store on a stormy day... I look forward to continuing part 2 soon.
The print of the girl in the red dress...just...wow. I got goose bumps every time I looked over from you to the print. The others really aren't any less impressive. It's almost like they have an aura! I completely understand why you were drawn to and amazed by them.
Thank you so much for sharing these stories, David. As with the last more intimate story you told with such gripping passion, it already moved me to tears. To see and hear about your way, your love for the art and all those passionate people that live so much for this beautiful art is just moving as an artist myself. Thank you so much again. I canˋt wait for the next part. Greetings from Germany.
There's no need to apologise David, you're doing incredibly important work and much of it you have to do yourself so you have a lot on your plate! I'm grateful for any video you manage to give us, and like this one they're always of the highest quality so it's definitely worth the wait :)
I have to say, beyond inspirational, i dont think there are words to describe what your video and story have done to me today. I am beyond tears. Thank you for this video and your shared wisdom
As a linocutter your videos are wonderful journeys, I enjoy them all. This one in particular and yes you were right about those prints, they are truly exceptional.
What a wonderful story of passionate persistence and reckless pursuit. Your love of what is beautiful is genuinely inspiring. Your willingness to just DO IT is even more so. Thank you for these wonderful stories. They mean so much.
What an inspiring story (beginning of it)! It mirrors a bit of my own journey so I could well identify. I am two years younger and at the time I became interested in Things Japanese (1971) there were very few books available to me on the subject I wanted to read and I had to special-order books (from Kodansha, Tuttle, etc...) as my county library had very little. I also had to walk one hour, one way, to get to the library. But I was driven by insatiable curiosity and enthusiasm and it was worth it. The thirst has never left me. I only discovered this channel in the last month. Now I am on to Part 2. I suppose I will be binge-watching for the next while!
this video was fantastic! I had watched the other rambling videos of yours at least dozens of times and im happy to see that more videos like them are coming our way keep up the great work.
The pictures of the blocks have been up for some time, but I'm glad you got to finally tell the world. It's so exciting to think that those blocks might produce such gorgeous prints again. Thanks for sharing the lovely story!
You sir, are an absolute gem of humanity. Thank you for sharing your story. I look forward to part two and any other stories you call share with us all.
As soon as you said you were going to do another story-ramble video, I actually started pumping my fist in celebration. Haven't watched past that, but I know it won't disappoint. Thanks for uploading again, the work you do is very special and I'd like to visit your shop someday when I get the chance to visit Japan.
I like your long stories, it’s how you tell the story, it’s not just the story that makes it great, if you want to tell it, tell it. Your fans will enjoy it
Hello Mr. Bull, I'm always glad to see a new video from you show up in my subscriptions feed. I was first drawn to your channel in the same way that I'm sure many others were--through your wonderful 'Remembering a Carver' video; the fact that it managed to keep the attention of my 16-year-old self is a testament to the beauty of the story that you told through that video. A year later, this 'Beginnings' video is more relevant to me in my particular stage in life than you might think. Your story of taking a risk and following your passion of printmaking gives me great perspective on where my my future decisions may take me, something that is immensely valuable as I am entering my final year of high school and will soon be sending off applications to universities. The passion you still show when looking at decades-old prints is inspiring, and I hope to someday find something that makes me feels the same way. Thank you for sharing a part of your life and work with some strangers on the internet--we appreciate it much more than you realise. I never tire of hearing you speak and I wish you all the best.
I certainly share in this enjoyment of your voice and storytelling, but when you pulled out those Okada designs, oh man, each one sent my heart soaring. Especially those haunting tendrils of hair! And hearing you talk about learning from the old key block was cathartic in ways I can't explain. David--many, many thanks for sharing both your passion and the objects of that passion. It is meaningful and helpful.
LOL I had already turned this video into Part 1 and Part 2 as I fell asleep halfway through. But I can honestly say, you have been an inspiration for me and I've started carving and doing some printmaking via linocut but I've also started carving in another way: a cribbage board which is a rainy day project. I am so glad I've found your videos so long ago. It's an absolute pleasure to hear your beginnings! Thank you for sharing!
I am in a wonderful state of mind, watching your videos. I'm not a craver, not even as a hobby.. however, I think it's important to get inspiration from every kind of Arts, even when you're not into those..
Thanks Dave! I’m sure at times when you have so much going on these time consuming videos must be a bit of a drag, but they are so very appreciated. This video is so special not only for the continued enlightenment of the prints themselves l, but also an inspiring account of following your dreams, not the Hollywood if you really want something it’ll happen... but the having a dream and then the drive and commitment to make something of it. Thanks again
I feel like this guy represents everything I am lacking in my life; culture, patience, and appreciation for subtle detains. Inspiring. Subbed.
couldnt agree more. Plus a pinch of inocent harmless sense of humour
The love of life? Yeah, I feel that way too. :/
*details
I hope y’all are doing okay man
😂
David are you kidding me? I could listen to you talk about buttering bread for 40 minutes!! So happy there's a new story video!!!!! 😁😁
Agreed. Just your voice alone is amazing, you combined with your story is AMAZING.
I love bread and butter. I'm up for this one.
ASMR
Imagine having someone like David Bull as your teacher at school i would have learned so much more, his passion is infectious.
One of my favourite videos of yours David. Hearing about your journey as a developing craftsman is fascinating!

Oh hey there, nice channel! Yay physics!
Simon Clark fancy seeing you here

When you pulled out the first print I said, out loud, "holy shit". That's how beautifully striking these are.
hōri shito
My mouth fell open. Not lying.
34:45
It was so shocking that it made internet explorer load fast!
But he said the face isn’t loved by some Japanese, I think I understand their thinking, they are different? They pleased me.
You’ve also become quite popular amongst ASMR enthusiasts. Your voice is very relaxing and the content is so interesting.
@Smut Brush Dude your name is Smut Brush, you have no basis to denigrate anyone
Smut Brush blech how dare people relax everyone should use their energy to dislike things that don’t affect them like I do because I’m a fucking moron. Thanks for the input bud.
@@trahnettilhcs fuck typa name is Smut Brush😭
You're like a more personal Bob Ross that works with a chisel instead of a brush.
You're a true treasure, Dave, and though I just discovered you today, I've been binge watching you and you didn't bore me for a second.
Absolutely amazing! This passion of Dave's is exactly what made me go to Japan and visit his shop. Amazing.
I visited Japan last year before knowing of Dave. Found out recently he was 20 minutes from my hotel. I could kick myself.
Same here I visited in summer 2019
"The way we create light is by surrounding it with darkness". This resonates.
I love to come back to these old videos after watching Daves year end review, it's so cool to see how much the shop has grown since these days.
Please don’t apologize! We are lucky to have you telling us these remarkable stories of your life. Carry on!
I honestly didn't think that I was going to watch the whole video but Dave is so interesting and the way that he speaks is so intriguing and almost has a calming effect to just sit down and listen to his wonderful stories. Thank you so much for taking the time to do another one of these videos. It really warms my heart!

Such a relaxing vibe. I had surgery recently and this is helping with my pain.
I had the pleasure of meeting David at his shop earlier this year. Wonderful man. Will always be a big fan!
David,
Your looks and your voice and way of storytelling remind me so much of my father who passed when I was younger. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with all of us! These videos bring me a type of nostalgia and peace that is so special to me.
This passion of Dave's is exactly what made me go to Japan and visit his shop. Amazing.
this video went really well with my daily dose of procrastination
Wow, 40 minutes flew by in a blink of an eye. What an amazing storyteller you are!
I've been watching your Meaning(s) of Life video far more times than I would like to admit.
This is another amazing video to watch and learn about your life and passions.
Dave san the loving gaze you gave to that woodblock when you mentioned that 'That's it that's me, that is these things that we've got collected here and that's the story'
The passion in your face and the conviction in your voice is mind blowing.
Thank you ever so much for making these videos in between your busy schedule. I'm off to watch part 2 now.
This is so lovely. David's joy and appreciation for the prints is infectious.
I usually wouldn’t watch wood carver videos, but I found David, and I need more David in my life.
This is truly some of the best content on the entire internet. Thank you so much for sharing, David!
Aside from how interesting your story is one of my favourite aspects of this video and all of your videos for that matter is your delivery when narrating. It's extremely clear that you love your work and it puts a smile on my face every time I hear you share your love of woodblock prints
I have come back to your channel and videos the full way through maybe three times now. It never gets old.
Even your stories you carve out beautifully.
I enjoy listening and learning from someone who clearly has found their passion in life. It’s awesome!
I have been waiting for your story video for so long! I loved every minute of it and can't wait for part 2! The print with the lady behind the curtain is mesmerizing! Thank you Dave for teaching us so much about woodblock prints. Arigato

40 minutes ago y had no idea of this art, now im fascinated
Nothing makes me happier than listening to someone speak with passion on pretty much any topic. This was inspiring. My passion is crochet and my partner and I are somewhat aimlessly adrift right now. We like to create things, but right now it.doesn't pay the bills.

Superb. So enjoyed this. I’m hooked
I love these nostalgic videos. Learning about different cultures on the other side of the world 30-40 years ago is pretty cool. Keep up the great videos!
I love how passionate you are about the history of each wood block that you receive from prints that you admired and you own them. 👍🏼
Awesome content!!! I have found that all the best Real informative RUclips channels is to find the one that don't stuff them full of 'commercials'.
Very much respect from Vancouver 🇨🇦🤞🏼🤞🏼
Thank you David! You encourage me to go to the workshop everyday with no more pretension that learning and learning 敬意

I cried when I saw the first print. So beautiful.
David I absolutely cannot stop listening to this video and part 2. You're an inspiring man. Hope everything is still going well for you.
Bless you and your storytelling prowess! Thank you for the journey that you just took us on. It’s absolutely inspiration.
The most incredible storytelling and life lessons. Thank you so very much!
The pictures of the blocks have been up for some time, but I'm glad you got to finally tell the world. It's so exciting to think that those blocks might produce such gorgeous prints again. Thanks for sharing the lovely story!
You are a living example of an influential legend. Thank you Sir for sharing this videos. 😇🙌🙏
Thank You very much David. These videos give me goosebumps and makes me tear up. That's exactly how I feel about printmaking. Thank You.
Every time David bull uploads, it feels like heaven
You sir, are an absolute gem of humanity. Thank you for sharing your story. I look forward to part two and any other stories you call share with us all.
Inspirational stories from a wise man. Thank you for sharing, Dave. Looking forward to Part 2!
Thank you for making this video! It's a joy listening to you talk about printmaking with such enthusiasm.
This was beautiful! You’re a fantastic storyteller, thank you for making these videos.
As soon as you said you were going to do another story-ramble video, I actually started pumping my fist in celebration. Haven't watched past that, but I know it won't disappoint. Thanks for uploading again, the work you do is very special and I'd like to visit your shop someday when I get the chance to visit Japan.
Well it didn't disappoint. Cool to hear that you've played sax as well.
I like your long stories, it’s how you tell the story, it’s not just the story that makes it great, if you want to tell it, tell it. Your fans will enjoy it
You are an incredible story teller, Mr. Bull. I enjoy your videos very much, but this to me was just... so inspiring. Thank you
Amazing story, can't wait for Part 2.
I can't even tell you what a fantastic journey and story this has been. Thank you David for letting "Us" in.....
Thank you for taking the time to share this with us, Mr. Bull...
You sir truly have the gift of telling stories!
Hello Mr. Bull, I'm always glad to see a new video from you show up in my subscriptions feed. I was first drawn to your channel in the same way that I'm sure many others were--through your wonderful 'Remembering a Carver' video; the fact that it managed to keep the attention of my 16-year-old self is a testament to the beauty of the story that you told through that video. A year later, this 'Beginnings' video is more relevant to me in my particular stage in life than you might think. Your story of taking a risk and following your passion of printmaking gives me great perspective on where my my future decisions may take me, something that is immensely valuable as I am entering my final year of high school and will soon be sending off applications to universities. The passion you still show when looking at decades-old prints is inspiring, and I hope to someday find something that makes me feels the same way. Thank you for sharing a part of your life and work with some strangers on the internet--we appreciate it much more than you realise. I never tire of hearing you speak and I wish you all the best.
Your videos leaves a deep impression in me every time I see.
Thank you for your wonderful work.
To have those amazing prints and then to own the blocks. What a fantastic story.
I certainly share in this enjoyment of your voice and storytelling, but when you pulled out those Okada designs, oh man, each one sent my heart soaring. Especially those haunting tendrils of hair! And hearing you talk about learning from the old key block was cathartic in ways I can't explain.
David--many, many thanks for sharing both your passion and the objects of that passion. It is meaningful and helpful.
I wasnt sure about this "youtube, I watched ONE woodblock video, why are you recommending more..." but this was great to watch.
I love how it wraps up at 33 mins... and then goes on for another 7 lol :) As always a lovely video :) Thanks Dave !
I could listen to those stories for ages......thnx a lot Dave
I am watching this video at the time in life where I am deciding whether to quit that job in music shop and pursue my passion. Thank you David.
What a fantastic story David! The insight and enthusiasm of your story’s really make them so appealing to listen/watch to numerous times!
Absolutely love your videos. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Keep up the great work!
Fabulous David, such a pleasure to hear these stories.
Awesome profile pic
What a treat! Seeing a new video of yours makes my whole week so much better!
Pure Magic. Thank you for sharing your skills, your art and your wonderful stories. You are inspirational!
LOL I had already turned this video into Part 1 and Part 2 as I fell asleep halfway through. But I can honestly say, you have been an inspiration for me and I've started carving and doing some printmaking via linocut but I've also started carving in another way: a cribbage board which is a rainy day project. I am so glad I've found your videos so long ago. It's an absolute pleasure to hear your beginnings! Thank you for sharing!
This might be the finest youtube channel of them all. Such excellence. Even down to the storytelling. Thank you.
Those 4 prints are stunningly beautiful ! The faces are extremely attractive to me.
I love, love, love these kind of videos. I love hearing stories. Especially when those are stories of the beginning of a person's career. Great video
What a beautiful storyteller. This is such a inspiring video series
Dave I know you're busy, but can you do another "Dave's choice" it's a great way to spread knowledge about different prints. Thank you.
I am in a wonderful state of mind, watching your videos. I'm not a craver, not even as a hobby.. however, I think it's important to get inspiration from every kind of Arts, even when you're not into those..
Thanks Dave! I’m sure at times when you have so much going on these time consuming videos must be a bit of a drag, but they are so very appreciated. This video is so special not only for the continued enlightenment of the prints themselves l, but also an inspiring account of following your dreams, not the Hollywood if you really want something it’ll happen... but the having a dream and then the drive and commitment to make something of it. Thanks again
Amazing video, beautiful prints, beautiful, soothing storytelling - so inspiring too, I love traditional woodblock prints. Thank you David!
