What amazes me about artistic people like this is... they see the finished product before they even start. I would not know where to even start on an old tree stump. Damn, I love to see artistic people work their magic on ordinary things.
Such patience and vision - admirable. To see the finished table inside a mass of roots and bark is a Michelangelo trait - keep up your marvelous work!!
This is absolutely gorgeous!! You are so talented. You looked at an old stump and had vision of how you could make it look and you came away with a beautiful work of art!!
I can tell that person that gave that ridiculous comment doesn’t know about good doesn’t have an imagination. Everybody has a gift and this man is trying to build something her sculpt or something and that’s his talent man I do I would like that stuff in my house, cause I like exotic things something that nobody has, especially that you built and sculpted with your hands, I give him a thumbs up you go guy you show him what you can do what you can make of that tree stump🙏👍😱🖐🏼⭐️
@@noras.9774 Hey Nora. 😉 I'm just being cheeky. I know what you mean. It's just you sound like my sister and I tell her that when i feel like she over blows a compliment. Lol.
I hope they make enough money to buy respirators! Even outdoors that was dangerous, to spray with one's head so close. I want these creative people to live long and healthy lives!
MMMmmm…. Thinking foot protection as well!!! Maybe some protective eye wear too! 😮 Although- my grandfather always made the same things from driftwood and tree roots/stumps in the 1960’s without any protective gear and he lived into his late 80s. Maybe safety is a wasteful expense. They have great camera equipment though!! 👍
A true artist, I loved the video from start to end. What a pleasure to watch, a creation born and getting a purpose back in life. Truly immaculate work. South Africa . Cape Town
Excellent job. He is a sculpture, artist and carpenter. Very skilled he should come and work overseas anyone will be more than happy to employ him. Congratulations.
Yes. I had a friend from Minnesota who traveled to Asia every year and would purchase a container full of woodwork made by prisoners. He showed me a very large eagle, and told me he already had a buyer for it willing to pay $3000. The eagle cost him $20. This was a few decades ago.
Try $15,000.00!!! That’s the price for unique works of art! Average price here for something like that easily $3,000 to $6,000. Kid you not! If I had that kind of money I’d support all the artists and be broke again!😂🙏🏻🤔❤️
It’s beautiful! Some have said well they expected more. Uncreative people don’t get it. With minimal tools they trimmed. Could you do better? Could you have a vision for what started out as a whacky looking stump? Or walk by it. He washed it good, spray painted it in natural woody colors. Would those who say not much there be able to pick the right colors to make it look more natural? Would they know the right placement of the glass tops? The sealing of the paint would prevent any insects. Some of the not so impressed watchers reminded me of what happened to me when I started my hobby animal artwork 25 years ago. I was in my plaster of paris mode. I never could get the right plaster to water combo. Too dry or too watery. Anyway I showed one of my pieces to the apartment building’s receptionist who said what’s the big deal! Anyone can fill something with plaster, put plants in it and an animal replica in it. But she sure didn’t mind taking that piece for free! So I said if you think anyone can do it, you try it! Show me how to do it better. So a couple weeks later I asked how her project went since she was so condescending. “It didn’t work.” She said. I said see? Not as easy as it looks. It took years to figure out how to make everything stand out so your eye isn’t drawn to one thing. To some a soup can or sardine can or an empty cigarette pack doesn’t look like much. I put my stuff on top of the cans not in them using cardboard. Some cardboard works better than others. To some a frozen pizza box is toss away. I can get thousands of paper pouches out of it and glued on wrapping paper and trimmed make good patterns depending on paper. Taught myself how to make fans out of wrapping paper. Never seen anyone else do that. I layer paper punches on like scales. Takes a lot of time, patience and a good set of tweezers with pointed not flat edges. Never seen anyone else do that. That empty and stuffed cigarette pack no longer looks like one. Acrylics for me work better than enamel. Picking the right animal figure, animal sticker, the right beaded borders or beaded fringe, the right ribbon or roll of mesh experimenting with wrapping paper on things without wrinkles isn’t easy. I save a lot of stuff. I did a sardine can animal artwork using on the outside uncooked spaghetti. Then I dry brushed it with brown. Looks like wood paneling. I had to teach myself even how to dry brush by watching others. People eat spaghetti. Raw it makes an excellent art supply. I can turn a bunch of used incense sticks into a starburst. The wrong glue the wrong placement doesn’t work. Not so impressive you give it a try. One would think lining the outside of a can with teabag strings is no big deal. You see it as just strings to toss. I see it as an outside cover and getting each string to line up perfectly straight picking out the thin or thick ones out of thousands requires patience and a lot of glue. But not any glue. I use clear art glue or Elmers. Rubber cement doesn’t work too good. Super glue you have to be careful not to stick to yourself. Just decided to experiment making flat flowers by cutting up the small teabag cardboard tag. Doesn’t sound like much? Would you have thought of it? Watching cake decorators I taught myself how to make scenes on top of my boxed animal art. It’s pretty fun making miniature mushrooms out of styrofoam meat platters washed out real good. Or making hedge trimmings into a forest. Not any old trimming will do. This guy knew the right combo of colors to use. I haven’t mastered that yet. I envy that spray painter’s keen eye to paint that stump in natural wood colors. Not a big deal? Can uncreative people manage that? To some that plastic ring off a plastic milk jug is nothing. I can take that and make a frontal ornament using cardboard and using the right picture and glue it on without wrinkles. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I just discovered that if you take a used furnace filter, wash it out good it can be used as a can covering. No big deal? My eye has become so good that I know how much to cut and trim. I learned watching someone else with paper that if you slit top edges you can fold them on the top edge so you have a perfect fit no excess when you glue the slices down. Wish I thought of that but saw someone else do it. Her small project she used masking tape to block off her stripes. Never thought of doing that, tried it on a peanut butter jar top and it worked great, with perfect stripes. Creative people can take the most mundane things and use it as an art supply. Or at least I can. Scrap comes in handy. The empty baking soda box one would toss I can make into an animal art creation. So you get art on something you others would toss for recycle. I think this tree stump table is brilliant! These people saw art out of it. Using minimal tools they made an ugly into beauty. For those who say well we expected more, you try to do better. You pick the right colors. You know which to cut and which to leave? Square or round or oblong glass. Hmmm which to choose. Art of course is in the eye of the beholder. But it’s a lot different to actually do. Sometimes what you thought would work doesn’t and have to think fast to create that mistake into unnoticed. What someone would pass by like this stump, these guys had a vision and they did brilliantly.
This is something I have always wanted to do with old stumps, I see tables,chairs, stools, in them. Never ever tried to take on the task. Didn't know what tools I needed, couldn't move the stump and if I did, there wasn't any place I could work on it. I love seeing all the beautiful things a gifted person can do with tree stumps. Simply beautiful.
Never, didn’t, couldn’t, wasn’t, all negative words in your blurb.. Leave them out of your good vocabulary. If you can conceive it, you probably can achieve it. Maybe not easy, but hard work went into all inventions and masterpieces. Do not talk yourself out of your visions and ideas. You have it in you to realize your dreams.
Wow unbelievable, I am impressed. I was thinking I can't see how its possible to make something beautiful out of that stump it was ugly. I never give up hope think positive you did it, it is just beautiful in that outdoor setting just the perfect place looks magnificent there so rich in bringing out the colour of the plant they blend so well together. I love it, a lot of work it paid of in the end.
The table they built out of that is absolutely beautiful.The detail in the work that went into that is extraordinary.They done a wonderful, waterful job.And I mean, there are different level.You know what?I mean , they're really good at what they do
A lot of work! I thought he was going to make it into a huge coffee table with one piece of glass as the surface. But this is nice as well and certainly unique.
Nice! I'd have to coat the inside of the nooks and crannies to tuck in moss and small ferns. It is a beautiful root! Very lovely and well done. USA Virginia!
I have big pieces of wood in my home just as i found them. For their beauty. Im an artist. Sometimes the piece of wood is better than anything i could xo to it.
❤ Beautiful! I would love that in my home. Too much varnish for my taste but the piece itself is great. I'm SO done with people thinking everything needs to have epoxy resin all over it. It's plastic. It was a fun idea ten years ago that should have lasted a year or three. Now every decent creative channel can't make a thing without dumping melted plastic all over it. 🤮
What amazes me about artistic people like this is... they see the finished product before they even start. I would not know where to even start on an old tree stump. Damn, I love to see artistic people work their magic on ordinary things.
That was an awesome work of art. He's not just a carpenter, he is an amazing artist.
One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. In his eyes he saw the potential beauty beyond the natural eye. Beautiful!!!
I see it more like art than a functional piece of furniture. Great job, Mother Nature gave
You the foundation.
It is, but more like a decorative side table... functional for small items
I thought they'd use a larger glass plate for it. Those two small ones just don't get it, it makes for a lot of wasted space, (in my opinion).
The meticulous artistry is amazing. The amount of time it must have taken astounds me. Great piece of work. Best wishes.

@@payne7028 Did your grandfather spray the same modern synthetic finishes?
I wasn't sure where this would go, at first...but wowee...that's a beauty.
He's an artist, not carpenter. Beautiful work of art.
I'm surprised that someone can see the artistic potential hiding in a gnarled, branchy, old tree trunk. Amazing work.
I know, right? I was wondering where he was taking us with this ugly piece of trash! Amazing.
You’ve penned my feelings .. Magnificent 🎄🎄
A gnarled branch old tree trunk is art before the artist touches it. Knowing when to stop cutting is the gift.
A true artist, I loved the video from start to end. What a pleasure to watch, a creation born and getting a purpose back in life. Truly immaculate work. South Africa . Cape Town
The stump is a work of art. Nothing can improve it other than sanding and staining it the way it is.
These people that do this are amazing they are the true artists.
I really take my hat off to this man for his unbelievable creative imagination with a piece of haphazard tree trunk. Wow !
Absolutely magnificent!🪵 Beauty in nature.😊
a rich person would pay thousands for that, just amazing
Luv it when the bark falls away to reveal the beautiful wood underneath!
Excellent job. He is a sculpture, artist and carpenter. Very skilled he should come and work overseas anyone will be more than happy to employ him. Congratulations.
He makes sculptures. He is a sculptor. Overseas where? What's wrong with him doing what he's good at where he is. Very judgy. Must be Murican.
Remarkable piece.You could easily see it grace the halls of gracious homes.😊😊
Even the tree self was happy to be remodelled in such a beautiful way, congrats 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
A full glass top would look amazing with that piece, nice job......👏
Working in flip flops! They're brave. I'd be wearing steel toe cap boots lugging that thing around and using power tools etc.
Keyword: Chainsaw pants.
It has nothing to do with bravery. Steel toed boots are not that affordable for these people.
WOW,that turned out beautifully!
Absolutely beautiful! Nice job.
Beautiful! When you see a vision, and all its possibilities. Keep creating.♥️♥️🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸
A stunning masterpiece! You have the eyes and heart of an unfathomable creator.
Incredible. That would easily be a $1,500. Dollar piece here in the states.

It would go for triple that, easily.

Lovely, he has an imaginative eye. Well done.

Calling this guy a carpenter is kinda like calling Michelangelo a mason.
Wow. It looks just awesome!
Artistic use of authentic material. Mother nature really is the best.
I love it! No eye protection or gloves, flip flop wearing artist.
No shirt. Not a great idea. Insects, stingy things in the root system. Oh well.

It seems that inside some ugly things is a piece of beauty. Just needs someone to see it.
