    one thing I particularly love about your videos is that you don't assume knowledge on our part or familiarity with your previous works; a lot of creators in various fields make videos that are nigh incomprehensible to a new viewer, but each of your works stands on its own, and your conversational tone means even familiar steps found in other videos feel fresh and interesting each time

      @jpsother1183 11 месяцев назад +15

      having done similar with screws (just a plastic container though), it still takes a lot of tracking down to collect the damnable things. Then a week later you find more, hopefully not by stepping, or sitting on them. The brass
      tacks were fortunately done on the workbench and just swept into a drawer.

      I wonder if he stores the tacks in glass for a specific reason? The look of the jars is a nice mood, but glass shards and delicate art don't mix well. There is a lot to be said for storing things in tins with lids that latch well. :)

    The flowers are gorgeous, but what stunned me the most in the before/after reveal is THE FREAKING VASE. It went from a vague dark shape with a few tiny highlights to a polished gold vessel that hits just the right balance of luxurious and understated--it doesn't overshadow the flowers in the slightest, but it complements their showiness beautifully. :D

    I've been binge watching old Antiques Roadshow episodes from UK. Three months ago I knew nothing about paintings.

When they show a conservator working on a painting I know what is happening at each step and recognize when they are doing it like you would. It feels good to learn so much in 3 months.

I was so taken aback by the vibrant yet delicate pink color where seconds ago there was a drab and dirty coral. Thank you for giving this artist's flowers back their beauty and sharing the transformation.

  • @Ophaniel
    @Ophaniel 11 месяцев назад +81

    Hello,
    Would you consider doing a video like "A week in my studio"?
    The reason I'm asking that is because we see you doing one painting at the time during your videos. From A to Z But, in reality, for example after the hot table treatment I don't think that you just sit and wait for the acclimation is done to keep working.
    You probably go to another project, refurnish your supplies, clean everything, do the paperwork needed, respond to potential clients....
    So one video in the type of "Spend a week with me" could allow us to have a better grasp on your day to day professional life.
    I mean I guess you have to do some mental gymnastic between working a painting A, then on a painting B ... I would love to hear you talk about this aspect of your work. And I also think that there so much more work that is not directly in contact with a painting that you do but mandatory that I would love to just have a taste of.
    For exemple also I would love to hear about how you do an estimate on renovating a painting. But i won't ask for that since in my eyes this is very "personnal" and we as the public don't need to know how much exactly it cost for a painting to go through your hands and expertise

    The most revealing episode of the whole story, after years of watching Julian perform such meticulous work that would make a Japanese man sweat, I always wondered how he would react when things go wrong, as he is seen as a very serene and patient person. That small and almost insignificant glass jar brought us the most authentic reaction. I never expected to hear a slur, but neither did that phrase. AWESOME.

    Your exceptional craftsman(person?)ship is wonderfull to watch, along with your conversation describing what your plans will be for a restoration. And when you reveal the TA DA! moment at the end of your videos: I wonder, can you hear all of our “oo and ahhs”? Even the camera effect makes it look like a curtain opening for the big reveal. “Bravo!”

    having watched a great many of your magnificent restorations, I have to admit that I NEVER tire of hearing you explain each step you take along the way. It feels like a Lullaby in some respects, although it does NOT put me to sleep ☺☺☺ Thank you for sharing your Art

    Love peonies. Watching your removal of varnish and dirt to reveal the artist's use of light and shadow was delightful. Thank you so much for sharing

    I don't know why I hold my breath whilst I watch you perform your magic, but I do ... every time. And then I find tears rolling down my face to hear your words and watch the process and see the finished results. 🤩 I know its not easy to film and do the voiceovers, but I so appreciate every single one. Thank you so much.
    p.s. I'm so sorry for the mishap with the jar!! I'm awfully glad you had Kitt there to help with that. I hope you both are staying warm with these below zero temps hitting us here in the burbs of Chicago! 🤗❤

    BRILLIANT WORK!
    EXQUISITE painting!
    I love peonies, and this painting features at least one of mine. 'Festiva Maxima' was introduced in 1851, and is easily recognizable by the red flecks at the base of a pure white blossom. The fragrance is one you never forget, and I look forward to it every spring.
    Thank you for your exceptional work!🎨

    By the way, I'm a huge fan of the channel, never miss one video. I love how the channel shows the paintings and sculptures in their sheer materiality, apart from the representation or the ideas, it's like showing the guts of a work of art.

    Man that old varnish was truly hiding how absolutely stunning this painting is.

    The refreshed painting really did reveal the subtle color variances of the original painting. I wish we could have seen more of the painting in close-up mode. A good job, well done is something to be proud of.
