[@danjon1099]

This series is an absolute joy. Thank you Philip and Oliver.

[@judithburke1539]

And Cedric the Handsome!

[@alexhess8934]

Philip Mould is one of my favorite people alive today! A truly fantastic contribution to the world of art. Keep engaging on youtube I suspect you alone could surpass Fake or Fortune. Great!

[@dees9502]

Philip, you’re an absolute treasure. Thank you for sharing 🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@antonyedwards3553]

I have always thought that the first duty of Art is to communicate. And Oh my, do you help art to do that ! Your passiion is infectious, your experience and knowledge is so illuminating, your prescence is charming, and yet, you always make the art the star. Immensley enjoyable. Thank you, thank you so much.

[@666lupine666]

Greetings Philip, Oliver and little whippet! Here in Seattle my wife and I are working from home and our son was sent home when the university closed. It's a little cold for gardening on our modest deck, but the starters love the rain that blows in. At the outdoor garden store they have a sign: 'if you are here to shop or here for therapy, you are welcome to stay as long as you wish.' Thank you for opening your home as well, it's very comforting to see you all.

Phil I am a young Geordie lad who loves a drink with boys n had his fair share of partying and not ur usual guest/fan but ur knowledge, timing and use of language totally grasps me! Stay safe the moulds!

[@philipmouldco4360]

So glad you've found us, and hope you will continue to join us throughout the series! Thank you for your kind words.

[@ruthjames9278]

Keep it coming guys, these are just excellent

[@jennydebney2215]

Phillip (and loyal crew- son and animal) you are bringing so much pleasure to those of who love art and are starved of it during this lockdown. You are delivering an ESSENTIAL SERVICE and I think that you just might be having alittle bit of fun yourselves. :-) I hope so. ( from country Australia.)

[@philipmouldco4360]

Thank you so much for these comments Jenny - we hope that you are enjoying watching as much as we enjoy recording them.

[@mellystreet9446]

Hello from rural NSW Australia! We watch art in isolation every morning before home schooling and work from home starts. Duck End and your art collection are gorgeous. Thanks ☺

[@philipmouldco4360]

How wonderful that you have made art a part of your morning routine, very pleased to hear that you are enjoying the series.

[@johnquick9405]

Just Wonderful. Sitting in my small art studio where I enjoy doing my watercolours during this lockdown period I have discovered your short films and am enjoying all of it. The sun is setting over Freshwater with a beautiful glow and magnificent colours. Its been a great day on the beach where we are permitted to walk and surf as long as we don't gather together and stay too long. Thank you. JohnQ Freshwater Beach NSW Australia.

[@echocheck]

Thank you for inviting us into your lovely home. And thank you for the very kind mention of my great, great, great grandfather, Benjamin West. Hugs to Cedric.

[@laurasibley8892]

I cant tell you how much I love these small films. I've learned so much! Thank you for opening your house and collection to us Mr Mould.

[@BillWoodillustrator]

Takes a professional in the art world to show others how it’s done. 👏🏿

[@phmwu7368]

Another interesting episode... those large paintings fit perfectly in the barn... Duck End House must be the most photogenic place in the Cotswolds !

[@philipmouldco4360]

Thank you so much for your kind words and support.

[@CatskillsGrrl]

I cannot tell you how grateful I am to find this series and your channel. We are all looking for an escape and this has been one of mine. A balm to my soul. Health and safety to you and yours.

[@irenebecker4815]

It was a brainstorm, Philip, to make these videos to entertain and educate us. We're all dealing with separation issues, but you've dealt with it in a very creative way. Thanks to you, Oliver, and Cedric, and stay well.

[@kayhandford3854]

I have just had a paralysing fit 2 days ago it was very frightening and … you are helping me get over it, bless you.

[@margaretb.4123]

I discovered this series in the early hours of the morning and it is now heading to lunch time. Great series and what a fabulous collection of art works and furniture. That is certainly a home and not just a house. Thank you Phillip, Oliver and Cedric for the pleasure. May you all soon be out of isolation. Happy New Year 2021.

[@marcsifodor1398]

As a Hungarian fan from Coventry and as a former art history student I immersly enjoy your videos!

[@scalliou4939]

Absolutely stunning that our Canada Geese travel that far! Nice to see them paddling about in your pond :)

[@SueFerreira75]

I have just found your videos and am loving them. The paintings are one glory but your enthusiasm in seeking out the provenance and solving the mysteries takes all to another level. I grew up in The Cotswolds but emigrated to Canada almost 50 years ago.Seeing your home, the feeling of the air, the sounds of the birds and smells of the farms come back to me with a visceral memory.. Thank you!

[@MrPlatypus72]

Your Series washes away the dust left by this isolsation.

[@jodestella502]

Discovering the names of the musicians after it was cleaned is extraordinary. I am having a wonderful time following you around on my unique tour with you as my guide. Feel much less in confinement in my home and I enjoy your enthusiasm . Am living in the “now.”

[@carolmckissock8366]

Hello from Canada! I love these videos. it's like taking a short course in art history. I watch one most evening and enjoy them immensely. it's an education and enterainment all in one. Please, please continue to film these.

[@verschoor2325]

Every morning with coffee and breakfast, before picking up the paint brushes, I let myself be inspired by your enthusiastic and knowledgeable explanations of the wonderful art in your home. Thanks also to your wife (Catherine?), Oliver and Cedric!

[@sarannepiccaver8296]

I’ve come very late to the enjoyment of these little gems, but as I am still stuck at home and not expecting to go anywhere in the near future, I am thrilled to have found something so lovely to entertain me! Your house and barn, and all the wonderful pictures, not to mention Oliver and Cedric, are beautiful, and the history so interesting. Thankyou so much for so much pleasure.

[@staceyvanier9525]

Thank you for these wonderful insights into your collection and the artists. I am enjoying this in isolation in Canada.

[@melwitzfolino3941]

One of my students from University here recently did her MA at Oxford University and is now living in England ...She has become an extraordinary Textile Designer ...Australia loves all that you do Philip ....such a great idea Art In Isolation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😃

[@mardinecampbell2870]

I just discovered this series which I enjoy very much. So much that I recommended it on Facebook. Thank you for your peaceful presentations during this pandemic. They have become an oasis for me.

[@brendamottram695]

Hi from a Geordie now living in the US. So far, I have drunk morning coffee to an episode, eaten lunch to another, perched my screen on my lap as I knit, pull out, and re-knit a never-to be-finished Fair Isle jumper, and today, held my screen carefully above the bubbles as I warm up in the bath. I think this demonstrates how much I love these mini episodes, how joyful they are, and how much light art in many forms, and those that enthuse over it, can bring in gloomy times. Thank you 😊

[@philipmouldco4360]

Thank you for your kind words, Brenda. You are right, art has a wonderful capability to bring joy during these uncertain times. ES

[@dubliner1100]

Thank you so deeply for this series which moves me profoundly. Philip you are a wonder and a gentle man in every sense of that wonderful word

[@magdalena-lisarobertson4143]

All I want to say is: "you guys are so cool!" I am learning so much -- thank you!!

[@BlackKettleRanch]

"The Wiggs," the hippest band in Cambridge of the 18th century. It's their version of the Beatles. If they could have recorded, that painting would have been the album cover. The painting of the people in the field with the nuclear plant reminds me of a Palestinian artist, but I can't remember his name.

[@lyndao7356]

I'm enjoying this series so much. Brilliant works, warmly and lovingly presented. Thank you.

[@that_one_dude497]

I was so bummed after watching every episode of F or F, But this IS FANTASTIC!! Would Love to SEE BENDOR or FIONA on one of these!!!! Keep it up PHILLIP & OLIVER!!!!

[@gscasale7772]

"...and they'll serenade us into eternity!" Love it!

[@mishantonia]

Binge-watched twice - trying to see all the other paintings........praise be for the pause button! So glad you & Oliver have teamed up to do these 'programmes'....less stressful than F&F, in terms of the 'Is it, isn't it?' dramas. Phew! Isolation brings forth gems! Who knew!!!

[@fobbitguy]

Thank you so much for keeping me intellectually stimulated during this time of social isolation. You have no idea how much I look forward to your programs. From Boston Massachusetts

[@fiorenzaattanasio4796]

I have always loved. Thank you so much from Calgary Alberta Canada . Antiques Roadshow,Fake or Fortune. I love your mind and manner. You sir are a real Gentleman

[@carinemunro1077]

i am in love with this portrait of the musicians, so vibrant and alive , i can almost hear them playing..wonderful!

[@mountainsun6959]

Thanks so much Philip for brightening our landscape through difficult times. My husband and I enjoyed your PBS-broadcast show here in the U.S., and these little videos bring not only beauty but calm to many, as you literally send them from the heart of your life, your own, lovely home!

[@rodperry8247]

Glad I stumbled across this , Thanks Philip!! They are all looking at the artist except one and I reckon that is the artists' self portrait!

[@janemorrow6672]

Rod I like that idea!

[@Baltic200]

Very interesting painting, that music gathering. It might be some of the very first steps of a minimalistic, "primitive" expression of faces, which goes ahead to the late 19th and 20th century's expressionism. Love your series, and as an educated artist myself I never stop learning and being inspired. Thanks!

[@TimothyFitzgeraldArtist]

I was working on a painting and now taking a break for coffee. Love your channel! Thank You

[@carolynlambert4543]

I got such a surprise seeing your little program Episode 6 as I scanned KZbin. My first thought was “oh Phillip from Art Detectives, a new art show, I’ve missed earlier episodes, I’ve got to watch. Why hadn’t I seen this show”. Then I realised the title of your little show ‘Art In Isolation’ and the penny dropped COVID 19. What a wonderful break away from the constant news about this devastating pandemic. I’m so saddened by the number of ill people in Britain and high number of deaths as well as other countries around our world, terrible. I & my mate live in South Oz 🇦🇺 renting these past 20 years on a working farm 700 acres sheep & cropping wheat & barley about 30 kms from nearest town, the neighbouring farm is about 2 kms away. We named our rustic home ‘Arcadia’ definition - a region or scene of simple pleasure and quiet’ it was built around 1898 (and shows 😀) with old stone sheds not as glorious as your beautiful barn though. 😂 The Australian government’s restrictions on movement with isolation as much as possible has recently been enforced. For us it certainly is not an imposition, a choice made many years ago. We both feel more blessed at this current time with myself lucky to have approval from my employer to continue working from home, my mate 74 yrs retired but enjoys driving around neighbouring farms checking out who’s started seeding their crops, moving sheep from one paddock to another with it being autumn here. A trip to the shops is now 1 trip every fortnight. Australia has relatively low death rates from COVID 19, albeit any are so sad for the victim, their family & their community. Winter is coming so we are being more vigilant. It was a surprise to hear you mention Australia in Episode 6 I did smile ☺️ great to get a mention. But, I digressed, please allow me to thank you for your wonderful interesting show which has brightened my evening and I will go back and watch your other episodes & look forward to future ones Phillip. Be well, sincerely Carolyn Lambert

[@ExLibris-Alys]

I’m avidly consuming all your back episodes one after another until I catch up. What a wonderful way to spend the time. Thank you.

[@MariaFrancaSerrau]

The history and the tales about your pieces of art are absolutely captivating!

[@philipmouldco4360]

Every artwork has an important story to tell. Thank you for joining us. ES

[@janetsydoruk4723]

I wrote to you yesterday after my boyfriend discovered your videos and told me about them but my comments have disappeared so I’m writing again. Thank you so much for your delightful well-needed show during COVID 19 from Collingwood, Ontario Canada. Love your house your dog everything and Oliver too.

[@fionacaldwell9398]

These are wonderful Philip, thank you so much. Please keep them going.

[@BF30Duca]

Finally, I've been waiting to see this painting and it's so amazing. Many thanks

[@chrisbinns1062]

Hello from Florida. Love Love your shows. They help keep me sane during this trying time. Keep it up and Thanks!!

[@SIEBEGORMEN]

Another excellent episode. One only trusts you have daily input for the next 12 odd weeks!! From your Scottish fan living in New York

[@complicatedtime]

Greetings again, from Vermont. Many thanks to you, and your family for putting out these fantastic tours.

[@elizabethdale9445]

Greetings from Australia. Thank you Philip and Oliver. I am enjoying watching each of your epidoses. You present with so much love and enthusiasm for your paintings.

[@sandybabb8313]

I am trying not to binge watch this series but savor it, however I seem to be gobbling it up. Thank you!

[@GM-rl3sm]

Thanks again Phillip, I miss the other show you are in with the investigative reporter. Thanks for this, it is so entertaining and it good to see you again.

[@julz63]

I’m loving the entrance music Oliver, it’s like a poor mans Downton Abbey. It’s superb 💓

[@kieronseamons3466]

really enjoying your short stories of art adventures, thank you

[@TKMINES1]

Beautiful Paintings Philip , thank you for sharing you knowledge of art !

[@clivekitchin3328]

Thank you Philip - I have been a fan for years through Antique Roadshow and your brilliant series with Fiona and other appearances - a wonderful way to cope with isolation and learn at the same time. Well done and best wishes. Clive (Australia)

[@basiazielinska2360]

Thank you very, very much Mr Mould. I absolutely adore these insights.

[@LA-ph2nc]

A wonderful installment! Fab effort yet again!

[@bigboxbobby2]

Another good one thanks Philip and team

[@jimwhysall7874]

I am not into art but I’m completely absorbed by your enthusiasm. It infectious and I love watching you on U-tube. Please keep it up. You should start your own regular series on tv ( when the isolation period is over). Jim

[@heatherrichmond6251]

Thank you for these films

[@gmeliberty]

Thank you Philip! Every night I find myself smiling with these little gifts.

[@philipmouldco4360]

We are thrilled that you are enjoying the series.

[@Wingman115]

These video's are a travel through time. Great series. Thank you so much for posting these.

[@HenJack-vl5cb]

What a marvel! Thank you!

[@longdatedoptionsleaps6112]

What a stunning painting, its the focus of the room.

[@carolinebesinger8611]

You are the highlight of my day! Thank you.

[@ginadavis174]

A fantastic episode! Such a charming feeling to that painting and a great detective story...Thanks.

[@emiller1439]

The hubs and I are so enjoying these videos. The production quality has very quickly increased (well done, Oliver), and the tales of your art collection and home are ever so fascinating. Thank you so much for posting and please keep going. How about a tale of Cedric? We also have 2 whippets.

[@gaughantony]

Awesome. Thanks for this series Philip. Fascinating, and your passion is infectious.

[@hakanjacobsson4598]

Hello! I must say, I so enjoy watching Art in Isolation. That episode about the musical ensemble in your barn really got me wishing to hear them play. You must know someone rich enough to put up the money to commission the composition of a piece of music for those instruments. Then it could be performed with your painting present on stage. Or it could be presented as a tv programme of some sort. Mind you, not a pastiche with wigs and stuff, maybe not even with period instruments, but their contemporary incarnations. New music inspired by your old painting. I could see a percussionist, two violinists, an oboist, a flutist (I think), a trumpeter and someone with an instrument I could not recognise. I see potential. And I can already hear music! Keep broadcasting! Håkan Jacobsson Malmö, Sweden

[@jenniferpeters3702]

Another fascinating episode. The musicians look friendly!

[@weapondragon]

i absolutely love these videos and the knowledge you share. Great thanks from York, P.A

[@guytracey]

Love this painting...thank you for discussing it.

[@reason43poole37]

When I see you in front of a painting I am compelled to watch. I'm glad I don't live in your house because in that circumstance it may not remain a paradise. A wonderful piece of sharing thankyou.

[@katek2635]

Imagine: it's a uni band! These videos are so enjoyable and enlightening. Thanks from Toronto to you and your son for creating them.

[@judyjudy51]

Wonderful series - and done on an i phone. SO impressed with everything about these gems on utube.

[@davidhussein6383]

I just love this series - I have been captivated by your beautiful home, your lovely paintings, your fascinating stories, and - most of all - your sweet dog! Can we one day meet the lovely - and no doubt long-suffering - Mrs. Mould?

[@sylviamatthee8172]

How very interesting! Thank you!!

...on behalf of the People of Canada I sheepishly offer my apologies for the geese eh ... they can be a bit messy as you know... thank you for this amazing channel! Nothing on this earth beats listening to some as passionate about their forte as you, Philip!

[@merlecopland3139]

Thank you, I am really enjoying watching and listening

[@robinlevan1619]

Thank you for these Phillip! No need for the blazer, the zip fronts were more casual. Filming has improved dramatically and your content is exemplary. Just discovering these.

[@annesykes8800]

Absolutely loving all your short isolation films, very relaxing after a busy day on our farm. Looking forward to getting back to popping into the gallery again.

[@kathywilliams2183]

Lovely story. Thank you.

[@jolali1]

Thank you so much from Poland for inviting us to your private art gallery. I’ve just finished reading your book “Sleuth” - it’s fascinating, I enjoyed every page of it. I wonder... Being surrounded by all these works of art and beautiful nature outside the windows, have you ever yourself been tempted to paint?

[@lindaheath784]

I enjoy your talks .Thank you.

[@kevinbullas2328]

Really interesting Philip thank you...
