    This woman is my hero. Unfortunately in another video her grandson said she passed away in 2018 I think it was. The world needs more passionate people like her that spread joy to everyone that comes across them. Hopefully she inspired that passion in many people's lives.

    What makes this so relaxing for me, is that just like The Joy of Painting, there is no background music, and it's someone, in extent, showing off a skill, a skill they themselves are so experienced and passionate about, and you end up learning a lesson in that craft yourself. It's real, and that's what makes it resonate with many of us I think.

    This lady is the perfect example of how passion makes a person fun, interesting and/or mesmerizing. No matter how “important” or “cool” your hobby or conversation topic is, if you’re not excited about what you say, no one is gonna listen to you. This lady seems like a joy to be around. Way to turn something that seems boring at first glance into something everyone wants to try themselves.
