  • The artist life

    Such an incredible podcast for artists, and creatives who choose this as their path. Their podcast is honest, helpful, and such a fresh perspective to what it means to be an artist in times that are changing rapidly. I loved their interview with Mary Vernieu - such valuable & wonderful insight into the artist as a person and their creative pursuits!
