When I was in my 20s, 30s, 40s I sewed clothing and Quilts. My eyes began to change and I couldn’t see properly to sew. This was a great loss. Unexpectedly I started to paint with oil, portraits on canvas. My eyes are fine with painting. To make art is my identity. I make art because of desire. Anyone can be an artist. All you need is desire. Thank-You for a lovely video. I’m 75 now, painting for about 20 years.

Wow, I cannot tell you how this video has affected me so I thank most of all all the people listed at the end who are involved in making it and I thank the artist who is so calm and wise in telling her story. This is the kind of story that is so inspiring for us artists who are also going through the same process. I am in Vermont with a studio and garden and enjoy hearing from a kindred spirit. I sometimes feel isolated and alone but hearing this artist speak makes me feel less so

I loved your response & how this beautiful older lady shaped your connection to yourself. I feel the same having seen her & her connection to life. I have such a need for space in my life & often I feel guilty or that I should be more social yet the older I get I sense this is simply what my body & mind need to thrive. Also for my art to weave herself into my life. Here’s to the beauty of wisdom & that deeper knowing that comes with age and embracing ourselves & our own beauty. ❤❤❤

Excellent. This lady speaks about art in the way it is meant to be spoken. Without explanation she explains the feelings of creating and not being able to create along with the process of listening to the "muse" and acceptance that it is not always present. Creatives know when the flow is upon them and the almost desolation of when it's not. Anne Ngan is a treasure.
