My Mother was an unsung artist, gifted with an observative eye, an infallible sense of colour, strength of vision, all subjugated to farm life and raising this errant child - I was fostered wonderfully in many arts, but it is in her presence as an artist I owe any of my inspirations. How great this homage to the marvellous ladies who endured all the prejudices and setbacks and managed to carry through! Bless.
This is a wonderful documentary. Living in the UK, it's the first time I have come across Monhegan Island. So pleased there are still places like this. Bravo to all the artists featured here and thank you for introducing me to this special place.
I´d love EVERY place to be filled with artists like this! Let´s build islands of artists in each community, just imagine - everywhere easels and painters working on plainairs, everywhere musicians, sculptors, the only broody thing in such towns would be young experimental poets; happy, creative people running wild everywhere :-). Just a thought.
Grazie per aver postato questo video che per me è molto motivante, spero un giorno di poter visitare la vostra bella isola e ammirare i vostri dipinti.
beautiful. i first learned of this island when researching the Wyeth family. being on an island is so freeing and yet you are captive also to the land.
I just want to share in an art community. I work alone. I have to make, have to, can’t be happy or mentally healthy without making and creating. BUT, I am alone in it. I want to share.
You think this is bad, come to Florida. Almost everybody's from somewhere else, usually from New England, fleeing bad marriages, trading the ice for 115 degree days and hurricanes then complaining, and condos lining the beach til there's no longer access for someone who doesn't own oceanfront.
I am always baffled to hear feminists say that women artists were not taken seriously “back then”. I just so happen to have a multitude of books published more than a hundred years ago on some of the most amazing women of those days, many of them artists. Why did anyone spend so much time and money to publish books on women that were not taken seriously? If anyone had an ounce of intellectual curiosity to research you may find yourself questioning everything you’re being told.
@@hArtyTruffle I tried to put up some links here, but I keep getting an error message. Here’s just one of the titles. American Women: Fifteen Hundred Biographies With Over 1,400 Portraits
@@clc3897 Thanks 👍🏼 Are you aware that both authors were suffragists? This is probably the answer to your question as to why anyone would “spend so much time and money to publish” this particular book. Most of the recognised “Masters” in art were Men. In fact it was common for Women to sign their work with a Man’s name in Oder for that work to be taken seriously. Hope that un-baffles you 🤓
@@hArtyTruffle so you’re telling me that just because the authors were suffragists none of the accomplishments of the 1500 women in the book meant anything to all others? You need to take off the blinders and go read the biographies of those 1500 women. Once you do that please come back and explain to me how did those 1500 women achieve all the things they achieved if they were so oppressed and not taken seriously by the society at large.
@@clc3897 1500 Women that no one has heard of, with a few exceptions no doubt. 1500 Women isn’t a particularly high number when compared to the literally thousands upon thousands of well renowned Men.
I'am just about to turn 55 next month......I know so many women my age or older who have stopped doing what they love.....one day they just laid down their brushes or whatever medium they use and walked away from it... and not one of them could explain to me why...they just didn't want to do it any more.. So i don't understand what came over them and it worries me that it will happen to me one day.. I LOVED seeing these older women enjoying making art.. enjoying life.... thank you for this..
These people that complain about this video??why are they watching it to begin with…don’t press the button..don’t watch it…most people will watch…God bless those that find this video a true gem.. I loved it…I will watch it again and again…thank you
"Being an artist, nobody cares if you paint - or not. So you have to care." Love this documentary - love that many of the women are my vintage or older - and their common message - needing to express their creativity, and falling in love with the island ...
I am a 65 year old woman who is always seeking to learn about about older women who are creatively inspired and continue to live fully and stay engaged in their art and/or passion as they age. You have satisfied me this evening with the women in this documentary. I have been inspired! Much gratitude.
Cathleen, I am 79 and I am more enthused than ever, especially since I retired and have more time to devote to my art quilting. I learn something new all the time. Keep it up.
My goodness, is the island only for the young or able-bodied? Why all the golf-cart bashing? My sister has been a Fine Artist for decades, and is now severely physically disabled by kidney failure. Is she supposed to no longer travel lest she offend someone? I daresay some of you who mourn your childhood paradise may have intruded on others with your innocent chatter and giggles. Not everyone saw you through your mother's lenses. As a native Floridian, I have seen my home state destroyed by uncontrolled development in the last fifty years. Often, the people who move here complain about the things we loved the most. But I learned to live with the condos blocking access to the beach, the traffic, the last of endangered species. Age is the great equalizer. Live long enough, and you'll learn there are worse things in the landscape than a little golf cart purring along.
I got my Masters in Art awarded to me by me! I also gave myself a lifetime achievement award. one does not need to go to college to learn Art. just as Abraham Lincoln.
I loved everything about this doc. So inspiring and liberating. I appreciated the ladies different styles. Room for everyone. Very well done. Thank you.
Such a great video! I love seeing how each artist is inspired by the island and how they create their work. Maine and Monhegan are on my list of places to visit for a painting and sketching trip
When I lived & wrote there with my young son in 1987, it was so very quiet and mystical magical -- nature on a grand rugged and on a delicate small scale in breathtaking harmony interplaying with THAT light. My son went to that one room schoolhouse with it's big windows onto the ocean; loved exploring Cathedral Woods with those beautiful local children. Thank U Monhegan Island, may those noisy golf carts go away.

Clearly you cannot make everyone happy……I just make myself happy…these negative people need to get creative….and start appreciating the differences on everything..
Having been a visitor to the Island of Monhegan since 1995, I find this very wonderful. It's a nostalgic view back to a time that is increasingly fading, especially since many of the artists profiled have passed away. Seeing Frances Kornbluth is especially poignant, since we struck up a great friendship with her and her husband, Bud, over our many visits in the summer. I'm happy that this exists and documents such a lovely setting in the United States and the great women artists that painted there. Of course, they were not there year round, but they definitely contributed to the life of the island. I know we will return once the pandemic is "over," but until then, this is a lovely film to remind me of the many lovely times we spent there, often for a full week in one of the lovely rental houses. A truly inspirational place for artists and for anyone's soul.
I like Harlow paintings. I like to see the light and the ocean. Painting the cottage, I believe, it's a good thing. There are moments, things that happen at one time in our life, and been able to see the light around those moments, and capture it at that especific time, moment that will never appear the same in time is wonderful. It would be an inspiration in time of the future.
So intimidating and inspiring at the same time, as a relatively new artist in Maine with no formal art school training and winging it I appreciate and value these all the beautiful works. I paint for myself and that is what helps me move through my life with meaning.
Creativity must be for the self. While its heady moments of inspiration, of divine madness keep us going, the rest is hard work and a lot of time alone.
I do hope by the time I make it Monhegan Island, it is still as charming and rustic as it appears in this documentary. It seems to be a magical place where one could quietly lose track of the day and enjoy nature in solitude. The women artists are quite fortunate and oh so talented. I will put this on my list of places I must visit in America.
Brought back fine memories of a visit there years ago. I was pleased to see Joanne Scott, who kindly let me and my husband stay in her house and discover the island. Hello Joanne! Patricia Thomas
wHAT A WONDERFUL DOCUMENTARY! BRILLIANT AND VARIED WORK,FANTASTIC WOMEN DOING THEIR OWN THING AND SPEAKING FROMTHE HEART. i WAS RIVETTED! HOW REFRESHING TO NOTHAVE SOME MAN SPOUTING OR WAVING HIS ARMS ABOUT IN FRONT OF THE PICTURES SO THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THEM OR DRIVING ALONG IN A CAR! TYPICAL OF BBC ART PROGRAMMES, WHICH DRIVE ME INSANE. THIS WAS SO PREFRESHING, MOVING, INTERESTING AND EXACTLY HOW I'D LIKE ALL ART PROGRAMMES TO BE. tHANK YOU! A TREAT! MADE MY NIGHT.
I thoroughly enjoyed this introduction to the island and this diverse group of women artists. But I am disappointed that all the artists you featured are painters. Are there truly no fiber artists on the island? No quilters, weavers, knitters, spinners, fabric artists, felters, textile/clothing artists? Seems like this island would inspire the use of a variety of media., not just oils, watercolor and ink.
This was a nice place to be on this quiet Saturday night on Canada's west coast. I also paint and am of a similar age as these lovely souls. It's interesting that there was no talk of showing, galleries or sales. I find it so denigrating to art that money is so commonly esteemed to be co-equal with art and the hominess and goodness of this video is not spoiled with any of that nonsense!!
This is my 2nd time watching. I really appreciate each artist's sharing about their life and experiences. It really makes me want to visit. Maybe some day. Love and blessings to you all. Thank you for producing this inspiring documentary.
I agree with one person here. You (a man) open presenting all the men that Monhegan is famous for. W. T. F! I was so furious that I ALMOST did not watch the documentary. I’m glad to know the these women (yes, only the models are folks of color) were fulfilled by being painters. Good to see. Some are even very talented, on par with Henri and Kent. But don’t open with these famous men. Makes me boiling furious! It’s the same in my world - Calligraphers. So many talented calligraphers but the men are the “recognized” people.
A great documentary about the women artists of Monhegan Island! Very very interesting! An inspiring and beautiful island too! Thank you for showing it!
Thank you for a wonderful documentary. I found this very inspiring and interesting, what a blessing to have such a supportive and creative place to create and explore.
I love this documentary, and I enjoyed every minute of it. All these wonderful artists who live on an island and create all that wonderful art. It doesn`t get better than this. That`s what dreams are made of. Gosh, I wish I could join them. Thank you very much for sharing :)
How exciting to have discovered this beautiful documentary on Monhegan and its Women Artists! I visited Monhegan every year in the autumn from 1970s to mid-1990s, my focus being the autumnal bird migration. Always stayed at The Trailing Yew. Such fond memories of so many people, including two of the artists profiled, and favourite places mentioned and pictured! The gaggle of golf carts on the paths was a shock, and when I was there don't think there was more than a couple of trucks on the island. Thank you for this rich reminder of a very happy portion of my personal past.
Gosh, Carl Little is certainly male-centric. He doesnt credit one-single-woman artist. Given the strong representation of Americam women artist, its clear his education is somewhat incomplete.
Its seems so peaceful, the lady complaining about trees, wth an artist complaining about nature wow and they complain about tourists yet they want to sell art wow as if they only deserve beauty. Sad really
Thank you for sharing this documentary. Have shared it with our local artists. Absolutely engaging. How blessed you all are to have the freedom to follow your passions full time. Still working on that one.
This was wonderful to watch. Thank you so much. I am wondering when this video was filmed as so many of the artists are my own age but one of them is closer to my parents age which would make her about 90 or so now. 💛 Ok at the end it says 2007
We lived on Monhegan for a part of every Summer in the sixties and seventies. My husband proposed to me when we were standing in the Cathedral Woods. I am sorry to see golf carts and phone towers. What a shame. I’m glad I was there before power stations and golf carts. I am an artist too, by the way, with my start in Monhegan. I miss it.
You should be old enough to appreciate the fact that many of us are now disabled. The only way my sister, a Fine Arts major, can still visit inspiring places is with alternate transportation. Is she supposed to stay home so she won't offend you? I'm really shocked by the attitudes I've seen expressed here.
