I’m here! Watching in 2020 after seeing the film....I cried through most of it. Maud is an exquisite painting herself....a living masterpiece that was here among us mortals. RIP Maud🎨🥁
I had never heard of Maud Lewis until I saw Sally Hawkins as Maud in the film recently at the Telluride Film Festival. Amazing actor portraying an amazing painter.
I was lucky to see Maud's paintings at the McMichael Gallery in 2018. You cannot help but smile when you see her work. Primary colours and pure images, animals always in two's or three's. It evokes love and gratitude for the beauty around her.
So extraordinary. Those final images in the clip, her body is so bent & her hands & fingers virtually immobilized by rheumatism, & yet she is excited to get painting on her canvas. She must have been in absolutely horrific physical pain, & yet she produced painting after painting that is an absolute joy to behold. Amazing woman, amazing artist.
Growing up in Nova Scotia, one heard much of Maud Lewis. My dad had bought a painting of hers, which is still in the family. She was the inspiration of many, many "folk artists" to follow, but Maud was the "real thing."
I watched some of the movie ( tail end) and wanted to look her up. Also, I hope to be moving to St John's NFl or up about that way soon. I love painting. This woman is really wonderful 😊❤
I have been painting for years. When I saw this Movie ABOUT Maudie Lewis, I was in awe. That's how I should paint, FREE, HAPPY, SIMPLE. I LOVE HER ART.
We just saw Maudie at the theater! Time well spent. It loved the writing, it was shot beautifully, and very well directed. I woke this morning thinking of it.
Just saw the movie MAUDIE. Touching, inspirational. Truly a woman of courage, love, who used her God given talent to its fullest. She was a true treasure.
It shows how years of physical pain and disability and living in hardship can visibly age people. I was very surprised to learn that Maud was only 67 when she died, but in this film footage, she looks considerably older in the face. She seems like she was a sweet person. Her artwork is so colorful and tells a story. I have arthritis for many years. It started in my early 20s with rheumatoid arthritis and developed osteoarthritis too. I have joint replacements and the benefit of modern medicine, which Maud did not have in her time. It is very difficult at times and is painful. I also draw and paint, and though my fingers and hands have arthritis, and my hands hurt. They are nothing compared to how Maud's were. You can see them in the film. Bless Maud Lewis for being dedicated and being so determined to create her artwork despite her challenges. I can only imagine how awful it was for Maud to have the birth defects she had along with the Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis during that era. Remarkable person. Another artist, Pierre Auguste Renoir developed Rheumatoid arthritis in his later years. For the last 20 years of his life, he suffered and became crippled with it. However, he still found a way to hold a paint brush sat in a wheelchair and painted.
She was such a modest person and deserved so much more than what people paid for her paintings. Did they really adore her paintings or did they feel sorry for her disability? We will never know.
The crime of it all, Maude never got to know about her greatness nor did she cash in on it as so many have since her death, somehow people seem to think because she was an artist she liked being poor!
Patricia Sollows - no worry she did see $20 a painting (before she died) which is ten times what her earliest paintings cost. A funny story was that a local judge pulled his car over to look at the paintings and asked Maud how much and she raised two fingers then said "TWO". Well - the judge said "I'll be back again" then returned on another day, Again pulling his car over again he told Maud which two paintings he wanted then fanned out eight fifty dollar bills. A shocked Maud said "NO I MEANT TWO DOLLARS" .. That judge had one of the largest of ML collections. BTW $200 in the 1950's is worth over $2000 a painting today. I honestly think she knew she was good - the CBC brought fame in the early 60's. At hopefully the movie tells a story of perseverance, facing adversity, making a relationship work and making do with what you have but loving it.
thankyou for the post maud lewis, they never copied others ie forgery/mimics, theres plenty of it out there which is not to say warhol is not valid or other living or dead artists, they did art their way no matter what the establishment/bankers, curators &c report, this is a honest and honorable form of expression, its always been this way, pioneers, curious is the way they are treated by their own during their lives amungst the living, i hope she was able to work for the trailer she so wanted
If the movie, actors, directors, etc., are not at least nominated, those who have seen the movie,will be severely disappointed. I know I will most certainly be. I wonder if Maudie ever met her daughter or if her daughter ever realized who her mother was.
Claire Stenning. "In 1965, CBC-TV’s 'Telescope' produced the programme “The Once-Upon-a-Time World of Maude Lewis” that talked about her life and paintings and also included comments by Bill Ferguson and Claire Stenning, owners of the Ten Mile House Gallery (Aberfoyle, Ontario), and Halifax artist John Cook."
one of er paintings are worth 1000 s of dollars, i wished maudie has got 100 dollar for one of her painting before she passed away..and not only 5 or 6
Rai Kitty I don’t think that is true at all. Where did you hear this. According to the movie, after she found out she had a daughter, she searched high and low for her...
@@bertha0962 the movie is just a movie not completly accurate if you search online you see that her daighter contacted maud multible times but she never answered
🥀Maud Lewis was born with severe disabilities added to the $financial hardships in🇨🇦Canada (under🇬🇧British rule). Canada is only 155 years old. Maud Lewis was born in 1903. Maud Lewis's🎨🖌work wasn't truly appreciated until after her death, sadly. 🌹I wish I had her💪🏻strength. Shame on Canada's CRTC, BBC & CBC for not promoting her work, while she was alive.

Maud Lewis wasn't greedy or selfish, it was her pleasure to be kind to others. Don't confuse innocence & naivety with ignorance, she wasn't any of those. 🇨🇦✌🏻🎨🖌♥️✨🌎💫
Here in 2024... wonderful movie, beautiful soul

just came from The Art Gallery of Nova Scotia that had her actual house and multiple paintings to view. such an amazing thing to see
Amei conhecer a história dessa grande mulher e artista.

wonderful - so inspiring and sweet - Maude and her work!
Just the movie and I cried a lot. It reminds me to be always grateful. Very inspiring! ILoveit so much

I love you, Maud. I m from Brasil
I just saw the movie Maudie. It was truly moving. 🌹
I discovered Maud Lewis just today. Really an amazing artist and woman

That is why an ARTIST IS CALLED

WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THE MONEY,
WE JUST NEED TO PAINT !!,

i just finished watching..its a nice story
Maud Dowley Lewis' paintings are beautiful.
so sweet
Wow❤🌞🥰 so beautiful.
She was especial lovely nice woman I like how was she living her simple life
It's 2024 now and the movie was on a video on TikTok now I'm here watching this.Soon I will watch the movie.
Sad that she lived her entire life in poverty. She would be STUNNED to know what her paintings are fetching now. She was a remarkable talent.
Apaixonada por ela e pelas obras.
Fantastic movie@
A simplicidade e' tudo! Ate' na arte.
such a lovely lovely woman
My Grandmother told me of her when I was probably 12-13.Think there was an article in the Toronto Star around the time of her death.
thankyou for the post maud lewis, they never copied others ie forgery/mimics, theres plenty of it out there which is not to say warhol is not valid or other living or dead artists, they did art their way no matter what the establishment/bankers, curators &c report, this is a honest and honorable form of expression, its always been this way, pioneers, curious is the way they are treated by their own during their lives amungst the living, i hope she was able to work for the trailer she so wanted
great film
Are you replying about this quick vid or the movie "Maudie"?
🇨🇦✌🏻🎨🖌♥️✨🌎💫
@@rinalore the movie
Preciosa historia
If the movie, actors, directors, etc., are not at least nominated, those who have seen the movie,will be severely disappointed. I know I will most certainly be. I wonder if Maudie ever met her daughter or if her daughter ever realized who her mother was.
She was talente.
Such a shame viewers at the time didn't get to see this in colour.
Who was the woman commenting on Maud's paintings and wants in life?
Claire Stenning. "In 1965, CBC-TV’s 'Telescope' produced the programme “The Once-Upon-a-Time World of Maude Lewis” that talked about her life and paintings and also included comments by Bill Ferguson and Claire Stenning, owners of the Ten Mile House Gallery (Aberfoyle, Ontario), and Halifax artist John Cook."
Just read about Maude on the BBC website.
super art 111
I THINK SHEETS WOULD BE CUTE BY MAUDE, THERES A MARKET FOR HER ART
💓
If the community loved her that much why did they not get her one.
Totally agree. Maybe her poverty wasn't so uncommon, and " well, if we buy her one, we'll have to get everybody one..."
Why no sound?
Try again. There is sound.
😮 the She
Why does 2 words plus one emoji need editing?😂
one of er paintings are worth 1000 s of dollars, i wished maudie has got 100 dollar for one of her painting before she passed away..and not only 5 or 6
I could not get sound off this clip-seems there isn't any - for whatever reason, it's certainly a pity.
I wonder if Maud's daughter ever met her birth mother.
Rose Marie She did, but Maude wanted nothing to do with her.
Rose Marie according to the movie, they never did meet
Rai Kitty I don’t think that is true at all. Where did you hear this. According to the movie, after she found out she had a daughter, she searched high and low for her...
Her daughter never got to speak to maud and she never got to have any of mauds paintings. But she does know now that she was mauds daughter

These "sophisticated" people coming around giving Maude $5.00 for a painting? Shame on them!
In the 1950s-60s that was enough money to get by, in a very young Country called🇨🇦Canada.
