I don't know how this is possibly, but you just sculpting my late great grandfather throughout the years! Especially the smiling face! Brought up great memories. Thanks, friend!

[@mbpetragiselagebhard7771]

sie sind ein grossartiger Künstler ,Herr Faraut

[@dyemooch]

This music and Philippe Faraut's amazing ability to capture the the human body in clay go well together. It becomes less of watching an incredible talent, but more of watching ourselves grow old. This is an incredible, INCREDIBLE talent from both artists in his way. This video makes me miss the youth I had, appreciate the age I have now, and hope that I can be at the same level of peace in an age I've yet to encounter. Bravo.

[@ShadowMakerOfMasks]

Brilliant. Your skill is practically beyond human.

[@claymoma]

I wish we could see more of this talent, his work is just stunning!!! More Video's PLEASE!!

[@patycardenas]

what a lovely video, makes me imagine how my dad will look in the future awww i love old people theyre so wise and full of experience :)

[@schoolahardknocks52]

Philippe my heart has butterflies as I watch you sculpt, your talent, perspective and transitions ...and filming ...and music ...Wow... You Are Amazing. Thanks for Sharing all these Wonderful Videos and Inspiration.

[@LunchboxHeroZ]

This video is artistic in so many ways.

[@saveusmilkboy]

i love it that you gave him a smile in the end! amazing video

[@SolarDiamond]

The video itself is a work of art. It made me want to cry by the end of it, seeing the person age. Perhaps it's because my grandmother just passed away. I love the smile at the end, though. Gorgeous work.

[@InsertNameHereBoi]

I feel like crying because this person is so fucking amazing.

[@jerjr49]

a tour de force by a true master of the medium. incredible.

[@margicavesela]

You did such a great job, this movie made me happy, I don't know why it just did. You had a great idea when you decided to make a movie about the process of getting old and combine it with sculpture. Congrats!!!

[@helpage]

Lovely to see someone who appreciates the beauty of ageing and that it is something that can be celebrated.

[@Mogsoup2]

from the jawline to the sunken eyes, amazing detail, great post

[@iloveyouohno]

Sehr beeindrückend. Es ist ihm noch besser gelungen als ich erwartet hätte!

[@NeonsStyleHD]

WOW they look alive. Beautiful work.

[@kazamakooza]

Fascinating...especially the work around the eyes *****

[@phyllisgriffin5933]

You are amazing! I wish I could have joined your workshop at Ringling this year! I told my granddaughter to look you up! She attends Ringling

[@jenacorn]

I'm glad you made him happy at the end. He looked so dour the entire time.

[@lorr4bs7777]

Beautiful! Sad what life can do to such a gorgeous face! Made me cry! Glad you ended with the smile! Wish I had your talent!

[@muselessmusician]

I love how you sculpt the deterioration of the human form by adding clay to the model. I got a real kick out of that.

[@ednagoola1137]

You have an amazing talent mr.Philippe, bravo!!!!!!!!......much respect.

[@llustre]

this video is a pleasure for the eyes. great art skills and a full sense of emotions and expression. thanks for sharing your art

[@hugger1ify]

Fascinating work

[@jaminnit]

Truely talented, the process is fascinating

[@farbodsayeh7737]

Wow, This is amazing. I'd love to see a better quality or a new one. Thanks for sharing your art

[@BeedieyeCreates]

I'm truly amazed and inspired by your work. I see myself developing another hobby that I can share with my kids.

[@jcnldesigns7932]

This was amazing to watch. This is an old uploaded video, but Thank you so much for uploading it 😄

[@ShitMist]

you have a unique eye when it comes to detail and emotion

[@NoadiArt]

That's really great. I'm self taught as well and seeing your work really inspires me to keep working at it and improving.

[@77DarkButterfly]

You sir, have truly amazed me. My hats off to you.

[@ilinaeternity]

I think the man looked beautiful at all points of the video. The smile at the end was the most beautiful:).

[@accabonacsue]

Great video of how to make a sculpture. Would like to see more of these and to learn from your work. Excellant work!

[@lady7nichole]

I was thinking it would be very sweet and meaningful if with age came happiness.... and just as i thought that you added a smile... beautiful :D

[@DannyBoy443]

@CaptScruffywhiskers Actually I think it's THE only lovely thing about it. This is hard to teach and someone like him is one and a million people. My personal favorite thing about sculpting is that you can use and reuse clay over and over again as long as it doesn't dry up. You can't do that with a painting or a drawing. It's classic too. Sculpting with clay will never go out of style.

[@kojichan]

This is one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen - the sculptor, AMAZING! O.O

[@catsterw]

This guy knows what he is doing

[@davidgeister]

Beautiful - and surprisingly emotional.

[@PhericZehn]

unbelevaible, amazing, ...no words

[@langelslshadowl]

@ffles I agree completely. I do a lot of different forms of art, both traditional and digital, but people who see my digital art think that I don't have to use effort to make the stuff I do. If making thing digitally were that easy, it wouldn't be considered art. Hopefully some of those people will catch on...

[@JanivanLoghem]

Philippe Faraut has truly understood the aging process!

[@smoshfighter2378]

U did such a good job

[@paulamorais1989]

AWESOME! Never seen something like it... loved it!

[@mrbanana101]

Absolutely amazing. This artist has some serious skills, I someday hope to be able to sculpt this well =D

[@anagallo4372]

Beautiful. Thank you for posting this.

[@gabrielagraneros8141]

👏👏👏....increíble como le da vida propia a la pasta!!! Que placer verlos trabajar gente!!! ❤

[@ChristacheLaPistache]

Beautiful, and informative. Thank you so much! Me? I'm glad I'm aging. More interesting features to discover than on a smooth, young, face, and also more exciting to find out how one can work on oneself so as to enjoy growing old. Don't fret. It's not that bad ... :) I actually enjoy it.

[@Pensivepumpkin]

This is really amazing...like wow..He really needs to have good grasp of bone and muscle structure in order to create this. It's just so inspiring.

[@shoppittsburghnow]

love the work here

[@deleted_why]

This was hard to find and worth the effort

[@bukur09]

great work..!!

[@timofly]

@CaptScruffywhiskers using computer programs or cgi still requires multiple layers of talent and skill. it requires being able to picture something and to make it appear 3d in a 2d space.

[@willadio]

I have done a little sculpting and it takes a large amount of patience, especially working on the eyes and mouth.

[@Pimporly]

WOW! Thats an artist!

[@andredragt4558]

Echt geweldig

[@fgs317]

Goosebumps

[@sk8inleo]

this is amazing, i really enjoyed watching it!

[@waltbaby8]

[@robsonperes7793]

[@idecarliercarole3789]

[@ilescifuentes]

[@sarb4297]

Watching our inevitable fate through the hands of a maestro is too realistic and convincing to enjoy the art ☹️

[@urbanmusiq]

you are amazing and inspiring!!

[@ryannlag]

Your brilliant Sir. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for sharing. I also love the cow boy you did. I trying to tech myself..... any tips! Thank you

[@safado1499]

master! Thaks a lot. God bless you!

[@luisfotosevideos]

Amazing work

[@anshelm222]

bellísimo

[@rsridhar63]

Brilliant

[@Johanneslars]

Wow - it would be amazing to create any of these faces with such apparent ease, but the "live 4D" sculpting is very clever...

[@LydiaKelso123]

wow u really know the human face. so clever. 5 stars!

[@dani70026]

Even though I agree that neither method is easy, physically (I think) is a lot harder due to the fact that you must also use your muscles, get exhausted and so on. Also, the rewarding feeling afterwards, for me at least, is greater.

[@crblindis]

Thats sad. It sucks how we get old. Im 30 now and wish I was 20 again!

[@oqlebarron]

excelent work!

[@ryannlag]

Thank you! Very beautiful!

[@laurakyller2749]

Definitivamente el puntillismo abstracto de nuestro Gabino Amaya Cacho es, único e inconfundible, con esos bellos colores jamas se podrían confundir, estos no hacen puntillismo pero su arte es muy bonita bastante creativa Eduardo Arroyo, Luis Gordillo, Antonio López los invito a apoyarlos ya que tienen un gran talento.

[@MAIDSMASTER]

u are so awesome!!!

[@tanzer98]

I love the fact that the video ends with his smile :-)

[@trecool3134]

[@south4ever617]

[@radhemohan9224]

[@ashleycarriger6400]

[@123nataliemay]

Amazing!!!!!

[@Chrisonum]

Me gustaría saber el nombre concreto de este tipo de arcilla, es perfecto para modelar bustos. Gracias. J'amerais savoir le nom de cet type d'argile, c'est magnifique pour modeler . Merci. I would like to know the name of this kind of clay, it's perfect to sculpt. Thanks.

[@luna_in_art]

the sculpture was amazing, and that music playing was so calm. how can I get the name?

[@MissArche]

It's almost like watching a person age. Which is fascinating.

[@pammfh]

Amazing. I wish I knew and understood the face like that.

[@levisbendeck7150]

Excelente!!!

[@asmeex]

time is the humankind's old sculptor

[@inkspray]

Why did I start crying???

[@warmfuzzy1]

Me too. I felt as though I was watching a real man age against his will and finally accept it.

[@ashleycarriger6400]

Ugh I'm crying right now

[@andremachadors]

incrível!!!!
