Beautiful. He seems genuinely at peace with his artwork and his decisions in life. What a rare and refreshing perspective to witness...so often I feel like older artists can seem bitter and closed off, but this man seems very honest. Thank you for sharing this

[@myoldmanbaby]

I felt the same. I started crying a bit, right from the beginning without understanding why exactly. But I think it was because of this. It is rare.

Absolutely splendid short film, very well executed :) His life seems so peaceful and fulfilled, he's followed his own artistic instincts and shared it with others. Very inspiring!

[@sofiamnesiac]

I loved it when he said he sculpts fish instead of naked women because otherwise he would be considered a "viejo verde" (which is translated in the video as "dirty old man"). I think it is way funnier in catalan but I can't think about other translation. Thanks for this fantastic film

[@E-Kat]

He's a dirty old man in the eyes of other fish! Disgusting! Naked fish? Have some decency and cover their bits up!!!

[@MyMaitetxu]

viejo verde is spanish not catalan...

@@MyMaitetxu it's war time!

[@MyMaitetxu]

@@E-Kat nop, its just a fact, I try to give some knowlege to the ones who obviously don´t know...just that...

[@E-Kat]

@@MyMaitetxu yes, I do appreciate your effort. Some words are obviously being absorbed by other languages and the boundaries are more blurry with time. But it's good to know what's Spanish and what Catalonian. Viejo though is Catalonian too, I think. I don't speak either languages so I might be wrong. You obviously do.

[@IngFelicious]

I am in absolute awe about how the camera movements and frames transport a deeper understanding of who Joan Garda-Artigas is and just complement him perfectly. This is such a wonderfully executed video, really impressed!

[@CVat9272]

"I'm happy with my life," he says. Makes me smile and inspires me more to keep going. Great messages ^^

[@ytcheung7542]

A very trustful and humble narrative of an artist. Liked the way he put it: “people say I should meet her, so I met her for lunch and it last until now.” A short clear description yet trigger the imagination of the unsaid. Brilliant story telling style. Thanks for the tasteful short film.

[@ytcheung7542]

J H yes it’s his wife

[@shicruisin7004]

Gosh, what a lovely place he lives in! That farm house, the surrounding forest, gardens, etc, all exquisite! Lucky man

[@AtomicPixel]

Ahhh that was beautiful. The way it was filmed and the story of it all. The awareness of himself and his life articulated so well. I’ve always been so envious of these artists at peace living in gorgeous homes. That’s the dream!

[@AudioOllie]

That shot at the end... Brilliant.

[@Kevin14henrY]

He really describe a life of artist. *Be isolated, creating, seeking inspiration in nature.*

[@emmywang346]

He Reminds me of: “The old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck. The brown blotches of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its reflection on the tropic sea were on his cheeks. The blotches ran well down the sides of his face and his hands had the deep-creased scars from handling heavy fish on the cords. But none of these scars were fresh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert. Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.” - Old Man and the Sea

[@Freeflowzeek]

Emily Elizabeth this is terrible lol

[@incognito3620]

It is an artists dream to create freely. Free from criticism, free from doubt, free to create, free to live the artists life. The life that can not be explained nor defined. Few get to be this lucky.

[@emiliepilot3987]

I feel like I had a major “aha!” moment whilst listening to this man. In fact I feel like there might have been more than one. I can’t yet put my finger on what they are though, so I will watch it again. But before I do, I just wanted to say thank you for bringing me this.

[@janemorrow6672]

Emilie, can you tell us when you find the words?

[@emiliepilot3987]

@@janemorrow6672 I think it was the realisation that I too need space to create, A LOT of space... and to see that farmhouse, and understand what my creative space could look like, was the major aha moment... I have since rented a much larger space in an old industrial building and I love it! And I have this video to thank for it. I also realised I need to learn to put aside the professional aspect of my job in order to not kill my creativity (something elizabeth gilbert also said in her book Big Magic)... That I too am a complex person (isn't everyone though?) and that I don't need to feel shame about that when attempting to describe myself to people... That my identity and spirit are whats most important, and that is how art is created.

[@janemorrow6672]

I love this guy. I want to buy some of his ceramics although I’m sure they are not cheap. His home and the land around it seem so tranquil and peaceful. I’ve always dreamed of having a farmhouse studio with beautiful land around it to draw inspiration for my oil painting. I’ve always envied the old impressionist and post impressionist artists who lived in the hills of France, Poland, and Netherland’s countrysides.

A beautiful house that's a studio with many rooms where you create using different mediums in each room, with large windows allowing natural light and be able to look out onto nature. My dream house.

[@mikeincalifornia]

Love the house. My favorite line from this is "Whenever I find an empty room I convert it into a workshop so that I can move around." That's so funny. And perfectly captures his attitude to the world.
