I am a soap artist. My interest also includes woodworking and just about anything made with quality. Which is why I'm drawn to your channel (thanks to Peter Mckinnon). I enjoy watching you work on your leather craft. It takes skill, time, and patience. It's Beautiful! And thank you for uploading this video. Great Work!!
Hi! I'm Patricia, from Argentina. I just love your work, so gorgeous and perfect. I've seen all your videos but this last one touched my heart. Your words, so tender so warm and the way you said them make me reflect about what I was born to do. I'm a teacher, I'm 64 and this passion for leather work has recently started. I'm following the best leather artists on youtube, you are one of them. I just wanted to say thank you for your encouragement. I could feel it deeply.
Hola compatriota 🇦🇷 ! Por si aún no tuviste oportunidad de verlo, Ryan leyó tu mensaje en su último video. Ojalá puedas concretar esa pasión que se nos despierta al ver semejantes creadores en RUclips mostrando su arte. Saludos!
Thank you for your words. Thank you for your time and your experience. Thank you for sharing these feelings. Thank you for doing what you were born to do.
I started leathercrafts just over a year ago and have learned so much from watching your videos. In part thanks to you, I've been motivated to always do better, always explore new methods, and seek to continuously develop my skills. Great message, man. Thanks for this.
What a great message. You are absolutely meant to do what you’re doing. You can see it in the care you take and the beautiful craftsmanship that comes out. Thank you!
Peter may have been what brought me to your channel but it was your hands, your craft, your vision that got me to click that subscribe button, and also inspired me to buy my first tools and leather, something I've been too scared to do for a very long time. So thank you Ryan!
I’m so encouraged by what you had to say because there are times I want to give up!! I’m a creator: photographer and bag designer. Like you I know I was born to create and once I am creating I am never tired I just keep going and going...thank you, thank you!!!! yes people are watching!! I love your great work!!
Bless that man and his family! I’m not a photographer, but his videos got me through the worst time in my life. His spirit is just as compelling as his video content.
Came here from Peter McKinnon's channel and I am glad I did. This video here is important, your message is important. I would also add I used to be a leather worker years ago and the quality of your work is absolutely amazing.
I can't love this video enough. It's so encouraging to watch something like this. As a newer RUclipsr it's so great to watch something like this. Keep up the great work!
Been doing small leather projects for a few years now, and in just a few vids of yours learned a bunch of new skills and techniques that have helped improve everything I make going forward (and makes me really envy your tools...). Hope your business keeps succeeding, definitely a quality product!
this is the exact video I needed to see this morning. Your video on Peter's channel was my favorite of his I've seen and I've seen just about all of his. Can't wait to watch your journey, man.
Ryan, I love your work, especially the attention to detail - how you seem to want to perfect even the most mundane parts of your work. I am getting into leathercraft myself and you have been such an inspiration. I have watched some of your videos over and over. I didn't realize you were going through all that frustration with your work. Thank you so much for opening up and sharing your story. It's helped more than I can tell you here. Cheers!
Thanks man. I am trying to start up an online store myself. Thanks for being an inspiration when it comes to the quality of your work and the weight of your character. I appreciate it.
I really needed to hear this today. I'm an emerging artist and maker and I've been unemployed for over 2 years now and the struggle is real. So, thanks so much for this.
Really love the energy flowing in your channel and works. Both Peter McKinnon and you are the channels I found one random day and instantly subscribed. It was perhaps the passion which compelled me. I love seeing passionate creators whose videos are deeply inspiring, meaningful and not simply a means to an end. Wish you good tidings Godspeed!
Inspiring story, so nice to listen when people are going through a struggle and then they find something new and a renewed strength and purpose to keep going.
Oh, dude. I just started crying. This is really motivational. And you know what, I was trying to get my film-making career at the point I can earn enough money to sustain myself, but after 13 years it still doesn't work. I earned multiple huge prizes in the photo and video industry, but still money is the factor that makes the difference between staying and giving up. Now I'm on the verge on giving up because I can't find the way to make it work. I believed that this is a meritocratic world until few years ago when I found out that doesn't matter how good you are if you get enough promotion. Then you begin to grow and to receive enough projects just because people hear about you. That's where I suck and it hurts like hell. Thanks for the video! I follow you both and I really really appreciate the passion you put into what you're doing! Hugs from Berlin, Chris
I’m literally trying this leather thing ( only as a hobby) because of you, your words, and your channel. I to have a YT Channel but I let it fall to the least thing that I wanted to do. I lost my granddaughter back in April of 2018. It’s been hard over the last year and tried to put out a few videos this new year but I struggled. Kind of lost interest in a lot of things but I came across your channel. I enjoyed it so much and I always been interested in leather work. I bought a bunch of tools and material and yes I messed up on that to but it’s a learning curve. I’ll figure it out. I haven’t tried to make anything yet. Still waiting on a few more tools. I really hope I get as much as you do working with leather and boy do I really need something to get me out of this low I’m in. Thank you for doing what you do and for coming into my life. Cheers
Love this man!
You are the man. Thanks Peter 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Peter you're gave me another great channel to watch. Maybe I will learn something
