  • Need a different interviewer please!

    I loved reading the BoldBrush Interviews and was excited to listen to the new FASO podcast. Unfortunately, I don’t enjoy listening to the interviewer because she talks too fast I don’t know what she’s saying and the cadence of her speaking style sounds affected, canned, even artificial…

    You’ve now lost an avid artist who used to love your former website not so long ago.

    I’ll give one star for effort, that’s it.

  • Interviewer is too young for this job

    I can tell that the amazing and mature artists that are being interviewed are often cringing inside because the interviewer is not capable of understanding some of the complexities of the conversations. It's not her fault. She is just too young for this position. Not enough life experience. Not sure how she got this position but there are soooooo many other people who could carry these conversations soooo much better and who would represent the bold brush name better. I remember way back hearing... more

  • Unsubscribed

    This could have been a good podcast for marketing ideas and such, but unfortunately the female host was too annoying for me in her speaking style. From the use of “Jesus Christ” or “Jesus” frequently as exclamations and the infamous “like,…”, I just couldn’t do it. Maybe she’s related to the FASO owner and can’t be replaced.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

181 Todd Williams — Set Yourself Up for Success!
Q: When was the turning point for you where you realized you could make a living as an artist?
The shift happened when I transitioned from a steady job with Dayspring/Hallmark to pursuing fine art full-time; in the first year after stepping away, my income doubled and I began a journey that led to multiple gallery representations and large-scale projects like Legacy of Nebraska.
180 Linda Doll — Start with Your Strength
Q: What was the moment you decided to become a full-time artist?
When teaching workshops elevated my income significantly and showed that art could be a professional career, I realized I could make enough money from painting and teaching to support myself and my family, so I began pursuing it full time.
180 Linda Doll — Start with Your Strength
Q: Where does an idea begin for you?
Ideas often come during quiet time, especially at night before sleep, when I let my mind drift and write a single word that sparks a new direction; this meditative phase yields the clearest, most creative starting points.
179 Tanner Steed — Persistence Pays Off
Q: What was the moment like when you decided to become a full-time artist?
He describes a gradual transition, teaching during the day and building his own work at night, running solo shows through collectors' homes, and eventually making a decisive jump to full-time after recognizing the need to focus on selling and building a serious practice.
175 Emma Kalff — Stop Waiting to be Discovered
Q: What challenges have you faced in staying disciplined and scalable as an artist?
Emma discusses burnout, structuring daily work, and the difficulty of balancing studio time with marketing, while noting the benefit of having multiple revenue streams to weather slow periods.
