From 1998: Gold artist Daniel Brush

Artist Daniel Brush, who despite years as a recluse earned fame for his exquisitely detailed pieces using a most precious medium, gold, died November 26, 2022 at the age of 75. In this "Sunday Morning" profile broadcast on November 8, 1998, Brush welcomed correspondent Rita Braver to his New York studio to watch what goes into creating his spectacular works, and to discuss why - after a quarter-century - he agreed to return to the spotlight. She also talked with Renwick Gallery curator Jeremy Adamson and jewelry collector Ralph Esmerian about Brush's obsessive art.

Because of technology, hand-made craftsmanship like this is disappearing at the rapid rate. I hope more young people will be inspired by this. Thank you posting this old piece.

[@dreamlife2351]

I have no talent but an intense love and appreciation for art. Of all kind. Working with your hands to create an emotional, moving piece is god given talent and energy. Makes me want to cry.

Beautiful coverage of such an intense artist to the core

RIP Mr. Brush. I wonder what they will do with all his equipment-was there ever someone he trained to succeed him?

Enamored with the Arts, especially creating entriquite pieces, as an inspired artist myself, the passion and dedication that runs through your being is magical. His work is #magical and #masterpieces!

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

This is a true ar-teest. If you aren't wacky and zany, I question whether or not you're actually an artist.

The Aga Kahn? So, apparently his list of clients include bullies, buggers and thieves.

[@dougl945]

He will be famous because he’s completely crazy.
