This is a very inspirational video for me because I didn’t know about the meaning or history of “Wall Dogs”. I really enjoyed learning about this 100+ year old profession and the artisans committed to their work in spite of challenging conditions.
A few quotes that resonated with me after viewing and listening to the video several times are: “Learning to respect the smallest of details.” and “There are a lot of talented people waiting to get up here, you know? Two points to keep in mind daily…rain or shine!
This video was found on Tumblr. If you don’t have a Tumblr blog I hope you will consider creating one and learning more about this great community. Feel free to share your blog address here.
Thank you for sharing this! I have a new-found respect for “Wall Dogs” (this title was so intriguing that I had to read this story!) Knowing your love for dogs, I expected the story to be about animals!!
I’ll certainly pay more attention to those artists who are balancing high above our heads to share their craft. Like he said in the video, “if he can make it there, he’ll make it anywhere!”
