  • 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.

194 Rich Nelson — Get Really Good, Then Get It Out There
Q: What does success mean to you, and what is the cost of success?
Success means maintaining balance across work, family, health, spirituality, and friendships, prioritizing what matters most while staying open to new opportunities. The cost is uncertainty and occasional downs, but with a clear hierarchy of life priorities and continuous effort, you can navigate toward sustainable fulfillment.
197 JM Brodrick — Invest in Yourself First
Q: What is your approach to staying motivated and selling your work in a changing market?
I constantly watch what's selling in the marketplace but stay true to my voice, splitting output between gallery-friendly pieces and more experimental works to keep both sales and creative exploration alive.
197 JM Brodrick — Invest in Yourself First
Q: Do you have a way how you start an idea for a painting?
I spend a lot of time in nature, collect reference photos from trips with my husband, and then connect those images into a concept that feels alive and true to the subject, with a preference for blending realism and abstraction.
198 Nicole Troup — How Saying "YES" Can Open Doors
Q: But before we dive into your beautiful work, do you mind telling us a bit about who you are and what you do?
She is a Pennsylvania-based portrait artist who works primarily in oils and charcoals, teaches both online and in museums, and runs Portraits for a Cause, a nonprofit focused on storytelling through art.
185 Ned Mueller — Patience, Perseverance, Practice, & Passion
Q: What advice would you give someone who wants to become a full-time artist?
Focus on core fundamentals, find a subject you love, join communities (critiques, groups, workshops), and be willing to do necessary but sometimes unglamorous work like studies and teaching initially. Build a sustainable practice by balancing craft with opportunities to show work and connect with buyers, not just chasing immediate sales.
