One of the problems of UA-cam is the feeling, after you've been on the platform a while, that you could have spent better use of your time... and a certain shame that creeps up... That is NEVER the case with your videos. It's such a rich and rewarding viewing experience... time after time. THANK YOU, Pete!
Hello and I'm very grateful for that comment. At the risk of sounding a bit pompous I find that the opportunity for youtube to be a platform for education (in its broadest sense) has like TV before it been squandered. Even if I do like the occasional kitten video.
A wonderful side benefit of these videos is the discovery of books with which I am unacquainted. After a bit of research I invariably buy them, and so far, I've not been disappointed. Last week it was Mischief in Morocco. Today, it's The Prevalence of Witches, which looks like great fun. Is there some way for Americans to register their recommendations for British knighthoods? Because Pete Beard ought to get one. Not only is he rendering a great service to his country; these extraordinary videos benefit the entire world.
Hello and many thanks for your very generous comments about the channel and my contribution. I won't hold my breath when it comes to knighthoods,but Sir Pete sounds great to me.
Thanks for this richly rewarding film Pete. During lockdown, and thanks to an ArtUK online article, I became entranced by the work of, the previously unknown to me, Eric Ravilious and through that to Great Bardfield and Edward Bawden. It has been like opening the door on to a not-so-secret, beautifully tended garden.
Hello and many thanks for your appreciation, and admiration of Bawden's work. I hope you'll be pleased to know that Eric Ravilious (among other similarly styled British greats) is a work in progress and should be uploaded in the not too distant future.
Peter, Beautifully done. As a type Director in New York City for many years, the only concern I have was the kerning in the title of the authors name. Two words now look like four words.
Hello and thanks a lot. Sorry about my occasionally thoughtless attitude to type. As a former illustrator it's never been something i was particularly knowledgeable about. I had to look up what kerning meant, and you do have a point.
I’ve enjoyed your videos for some time now, and love both the subject matter and presentation, so I’m embarrassed to say the thing that prompted me to leave my first comment was my bugbear of the spaces left by that pair of A’s and W’s in the thumbnail. I’m sort of comforted to see someone else had noted it as well. Don’t think I’m just focused on the negatives, though! Overall, I appreciate the depth of your research and beautiful presentation of that research. Cheers.
Hello and I'm grown up enough to accept the criticism along with the praise. Not that it'll stop me making similar typographic blunders in the future, though. As my dear mother used to say "Life's too short for kerning".@@GSPonsonby
Weirdly, my wife received a card yesterday from her father and on it was an image by Bawden. Inside a letter from him explaining that Bawden had been his tutor and the RC and that some yrs later Bawden’s son Richard came to study under my father in law at the St Martins after doing a year at Chelsea. My father in law was head of illustration at the time and asked why Richard had changed to St Martins. He said said that his dad had told him to change and study under my father in law, who said it was one of the greatest compliments he ever received. Bawden knew Ravilious of course and later my father in law taught Ravilious’s son James at St Martins. I knew James too, meeting him through my own work for Exeter museum. He had two exhibitions there and during the installation of one he brought in one of his father’s sketchbooks, which was packed with drawings and totally fascinating. I also worked with James’s daughter Ella on a couple of shows she couriered to the SW on behalf of the V&A. THe world is a very small place at times .
Hello and many thanks for your comment and insight regarding both Bawden and Ravilious. And I hope you'll be pleased to know that both Ravilious and the equally fascinating (to my mind at least) Barnett Freedman are current works in progress for the channel.
Wow! It's nice to see how my grandpa greatly affects others. I'm sad that I didn't get to know him that well, I would love to hear more interesting stories from him. Right now he is fighting hard against Alzheimer's and sometimes struggles to remember my dad. I'm really happy to see that many people enjoy his artwork 😁
A stunning example of modern representation at its finest. Bowden achieves what many aspire to but few manage a subtle originality both of their time and reflective of a particular hand. Thank you for a generous presentation of artistic merit: embarrassment of riches indeed.
Hello and thanks a lot for your appreciation of the video and for Bawden's remarkable body of work. Judging by the viewing numbers it seems he's somewhat of an acquired taste but that's their loss, as far as I'm concerned.
These posts are just amazing, thanks for the hard work. Your knowledge is amazing, you have awoken a deep appreciation of these artists in me, thank you for that.
Hello to you, and thanks a lot for your positive response to the channel and its content. Unfortunately illustration has long sufferd from the (spurious in my view) notion that it is the poor cousin of real art. If I can redress the balance even a little that's my mission.
❤ Thanks Pete ❤ The art is very unique and so architectural and very appealing. His children's illustrations are particularly interesting and enticing. ❤
@@petebeard Thanks for taking the time to be so incredibly kind and thoughtful. I appreciate the expertise and the love of art that you share with us all. I wondered if you are familiar with the slide guitar of the late great Jesse Ed Davis? He played with Leon Russell, John Lennon, Taj Mahal and John Trudell in the band "Aka Graffiti Man " He was born in Oklahoma and was a favorite musician in Las Angeles for years. I had the pleasure of meeting him and he was a gentleman and very friendly and welcoming to me. He was playing with John Trudell and aka Graffiti Man at the time. He was fantastic on the guitar and he had a joyful capacity for taking the music to a place of soulfulness and spine tingling vibrational energy that was unequaled and unique. Check out his talent and the many different people that he played with. I think you will absolutely love his work.
Hello again and yes I know of the late Mr. Davis through his work on the first 3 Taj Mahal albums, and I admire it greatly. The Natch'l Blues is an all time favourite. I wasn't aware of his other connections though and I'll check them out, and I didn't know he played slide. The stuff I know is concert tuned, or at least I assumed so.
I have always loved his work. Thank you so much for this wonderful video. I wholeheartedly agree with the post just before/below mine. Always a rewarding viewing experience!
Hello omce more, and I'm very pleased by your positive response to this video. I suspect that for many his work is an acquired taste, as it was for me in my youth. But maybe this will make a few converts.
Thanks for the comment, and try as I might I can never really understand why it seems to be either feast or famine. Im just grateful there's anyting at all.
We share 4 letters, thus a little false pride, Pete, your selections, knowledge, narrative, intonations, are inspiring, and this from a retired teacher. Your site is probably in my top 5.☯
Loved this. Thinking now I might paint my bathroom walls with fish inside large waves... His style never wavered much in his diversity of projects, which I like when the style is always so fun and engaging. His interpretations always unique - that one early on where he's at a birds-eye view, revealing the labyrinthine pattern of the buildings below. Just excellent. And bonus material at the end - even better! Thanks as always, Pete. 🙂
*Bawden* had a quirky sense of humor especially w/ his animal illustrations ... I'm sure he made many people laugh & even the ones who say they will not laugh might smile for example: TS 7:47
Hey Pete, How about a series of videos on the artists who worked on children's "Pop-Up books. I think it's an art form all it's own, as always, Thank You 😊
Hello and it's an interesting suggestion. It had never occurred to me to pursue that as a topic and its an area I know virtually nothing about. I'll investigate and try to establish if it looks likely I can gather enough material. Watch this space, but of course I may hit a brick wall. It wouldn't be the first time.
Hello and thanks for your appreciation and comment. I find myself asking similar (sadly unanswerable) questions about most of the subjects in my videos.
Unlike many of your other subjects, I am completely unfamiliar with his work and this video is the first i have even seen the mention of his name. Viewing it, I was struck by how much his work reminded me of several other artists. But when one examines the timelines -- he was the one THEY copied from!
Hi again, and I think you'll be far from alone in not previously knowing about Bawden's work. Even in Britain he's far from a household name, despite the fact that he used to be precisely that. There were several others among his contemporaries working in similar styles and I'll be featuring them further down the line. If the videos make even a few converts it's better than the alternative.
Hello Pete from Ned in Spain. Thank you for this and all your videos. I just discovered a copy of Frankenstein 1932 illustrated by Nino Corbe that came from my Dad's book collection. Great illustrations and I wondered if you've ever done a video about him ? Thanks again !
Hello and thanks a lot for your appreciation. I looked up Nino Corbe - who I had never heard of - but there's no trace online. Do I have the right name?
Aha! All becomes clear, and many thanks for introducing me to an illustrator I had been unaware of. On a quick google search I'm not convinced there will be enough decent resolution imagery to be able to include him, but a deeper dive might reveal more. And if it does he will appear. Thanks again.
Thanks a lot for your appreciation of this video. And I hope you'll be pleased to know that Ravilious is currently a work in progress. No idea when it will be finished though, as I'm completely disorganised.
It's hard to separate your own biases and knowledge of history, but I'm struck by how much of the narrative of his life seems to come through in his work. There's a sense generosity/innocence in his early depiction of characters that seems to be lost after the war. A tad of blissful exuberance after his marriage. A general sense of chaos, escape, and austerity post war. He seems to regain some of his earlier whimsy later in life, but it's still not free from subtle undertones of sadness, caution, and distance. I suppose that's not exactly a groundbreaking idea but perhaps it's just the way so much emotion seems to come through via style, pallette, composition, perspective in addition to the obvious of the actual subject matter.
Hello and many thanks for your appreciation and insightful comment about Bawden's work. I try not to speculate about the inner landscape of these illustrators as it isn't my place to do so but if viewers such as yourself pick up on these nuances that's a very good thing in my book.
Hello and many thanks for your appreciation. Sometimes I struggle to get enough material but in Bawden's case it was a positive deluge, I'm glad to say.
It always is fun to come across work one is vaguely familiar with, even if one does not know the name of the artist. This feeling of familiarity crept up every so often during this video. I know this .... but where have I seen it? Bawden mastered so many styles, changed with ease from the dark and intense to the fanciful and funny. You must be getting tired of the same phrase and praise - still, I repeat myself: wonderful presentation, hugely interesting content. Thank you
Hello again, and please don't worry about repeating yourself - I never tire of viewers who think enough of the channel content to let me know that they enjoy it. And it's not just an ego thing on my part (although it does give it a good massage). I like to think I'm in an ongoing converation with others who share my interst and enthusiasm. So thanks a lot.

Nothing wrong with a good kitten video.
Beautiful music too.
Hello and thanks a lot. Finding non copyright music that isn't dreadful isn't easy.
It saddens me that we may never see the return of illustration like this in our everyday lives. Thank you for keeping it alive.
Hello and thanks for the comment. It has that effect on me - and quite a few others it seems - too.
What a wonderful channel this is. Thank you!
Hello and I'm very grateful for your appreciation.

Thank you again. I’m enjoying these so much that I’ve started at number one to “catch up”.

Hi again and I'm glad you appreciate his fascinating work. Thans for the comment.
Thanks Pete, another lovely and brilliant presentation.

Glad to be of service in some way. We hope you can find some usable images. @@petebeard
I came across Bawden in a lavish recipe book of Fortnum & Mason. His work appealed straightaway. He also knew Eric Ravilious. Another artist i love.
Thanks a lot for your appreciation of this video. And I hope you'll be pleased to know that Ravilious is currently a work in progress. No idea when it will be finished though, as I'm completely disorganised.

I wondered why you hadn't included him .
Quite understand now.
It's hard to separate your own biases and knowledge of history, but I'm struck by how much of the narrative of his life seems to come through in his work.

Thanks for the encore sharing of works that would've been relegated to the cutting room floor. The Henry VIII print was especially brilliant.

Okay, Pete. I am trying to look up a term you used but do not know how to spell it. How do you spell "poshwah?"
Hello and it's a French word "Pochoir". They used stencils to hand colour line drawing , usually done by a team of colourists. If there are other words you are unsure about just put the subtitles on and you'll find the correct spelling.
@@petebeardMany thanks, Pete!
Your videos are a breath of fresh air in a room full of farts.
