- In this week's art vlog, I share some never-before seen video files I discovered in the depths of my old computer's hard drive. Enjoy some brief but soothing nature scenes from Pingree Park, as well as interviews with several super talented Northern Colorado artists. Bonus points if you can you guess what year this was filmed.... ;)THINGS MENTIONED/SHOWN

I Really Enjoyed looking at all of those artworks. My favorite was the large ocean view by Christine M. Torrez.
One of my faves, as well! :)
Mine too buddy!
Thanks for sharing this nice video❤
Thank you, too. :)
I'm glad you found this footage, Laura! I would love to sit by that river or on that balcony - to 'just sit' and allow it to absorb me, then perhaps to paint from that.
The woodworker: Wow! I love wooden things and would have loved to be able to touch, feel, sense those lovely pieces.
Incidentally, you mentioned the British accent, so I went back to see if I could hear it, but he has certainly become very American, and only a _very_ occasional word, if I listened hard, sounded as though he was perhaps a Londoner ("but", for example). Maybe you notice it more because to your ear, as an American, you notice the very slight difference.
It's interesting for me, as a Brit in France, that when I first came back, folk recognised the 'English' tendencies in my accent, and how, 8 years on, they are more likely to suggest I'm Belgian or Dutch. It also intrigues me that although I have an excellent 'ear' for British regional / international accents, I still can't differentiate between the different accents of folk in church from different areas of France!!!
But I digress! Many thanks again, especially for the balcony / river / wood-turner sections! 😊
I'll pass along your lovely words to Steve. His woodworking truly is above par. :) And yes, blended accents can be tricky -- I think you were correct about London! My mawmaw (grandma) could tell what exact COUNTY in West Virginia someone was from, just by the way they talked. As we all move around more and more, such old accents might fade and turn into a more international dialect with its own distinctions...
@@LauraGYoung Thanks for passing on my comment to Steve! To hold it, see it, smell it, feel it, eyes closed, with the fingertips...Carved / turned wood is a very precious thing, a feast for the senses! Opening up a box of quality wooden pencils, seeing all those lovely colours is a secondary sensation to the perfume coming from of the wood....
I think it'd be very sad and the world would lose out on something important if we lost our regional accents. When friends went to University, speaking well, but with that local tang (yes, tang, not twang!) giving individuality, then coming home for vacation with the generic 'upper class' accent was / is never a happy thing for me!
I could (probably still can) pick out accents from across the Uk, and identify the county, but had to be careful, as I had (still have!) a totally unintentional tendency to speak in exactly that accent. Honestly unintentional, it was hard if the person concerned noticed / notices, and was unhappy, but thankfully, usually they didn't notice. 😊
Lovely art works all around 🙂✍
Aren’t they, though? I am in such good company. :) P.S. Did you hear a somewhat familiar accent during the first interview? Hehe.
@@LauraGYoung Thats awesome! No i didnt notice at the time. Hehe,another Englishman methinks 👍
@@WildWoodlandsSW Yup. Steve and his lovely wife have been on this side of the pond for many years, but they still retain a hint of their original accent. We enjoy their creativity very much!
@@LauraGYoung Had another peek and wonder how i missed the accent first time lol. Really liked the Greedy vacuumer series🙂
