Ukraine's Got Talent - Spellbinding

I found this video clip through my sweet friend, Kelly, at The Glass Dragonfly, who finds the best videos in the world and shares them with us. I hope you will do yourself a favor and take the time to see this. If you do, you won't forget it. I clicked, watched it for five seconds, stopped, and knew I had to call the kids in to watch with me. We we're all spellbound. For me, art must be shared.

    I will have to watch the video because it sounds fascinating. I wanted to tell you I got an idea from reading your post the other day on Julie and Julia. The idea is presented on my blog if you have time to mozy over and share your thoughts.

    I just got back from the Drop Zone, after making three wonderful skydives. And catching up on the comments on my latest blog, and reading what I've missed today.

    Just finished watching the stunning sand painter giving us a running storyline. How humbled I feel when I see what she can do with sand... thank you so much for sharing this. Sitting here in a trance...

    While watching the video, I figured out it had something to do with the heartbreak caused by war. If we could understand the words of the songs, we'd probably understand why the women in the audience were teary-eyed. What surprised me was she wrote 1945 at the end. But she's way too young for that war so, was she sculpting about her grandfather? Her great-grandfather? Very interesting!

    OH MY GOODNESS!!! What an amazing talent. Kev,the bigs and I watched it and were rightly astounded! She is a creative genius! I downloaded it 3 times before we actually got to see it! I dept walking away and someone else would get on the computer and I'd have to start all over! It was worth the wait. Thanks for sharing!!

    I swear I commented the other day, but this post is still marked as new in my reader. The joys of being ill, I can't remember what I did or did not do!!

    I am glad that you watched the video (and shared it!) I posted even though I failed to express the reasons WHY I felt it was important.

    Much love,

    Good grief it would be amazing just to see the finished picture but to see it being produced is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.!

    Thanks for visiting me and taking the time to comment and for sharing this find. :)

    wow, that was amazing! I wish I knew more about her - was she on a talent show of some sort? it's obvious that the people in the audience knew what she was drawing and it evoked a lot of emotion.
