I am a huge fan of Erik Abel's art! His style is absolutely unique and his whirlwind of career is a dream for any visual artist out there. I asked Erik to tell his story and was surprised to hear his thoughts on what it means to be a "successful artist" and why he is not sharing his new art project with the public.

Tim Fite is one of those gems you thank the universe for bringing you together (I thank Ezerd Land for connecting us!)
Tim Fite - called a “cultural gadfly” by the New York Times and “ferally original” by the New Yorker - used to be an artsy rapper. Now he's just artsy. He doesn't drink. He doesn’t do drugs. He prefers solitude/contemplation to hobnobbing/affectation. This preference affords Fite the time/freedom to make large scale, compositionally complex, allegorical, black and white drawings that occasionally have a musical or performative component. Fite believes creativity, communication, compassion, and hard work are the keys to fostering a more benevolent and inclusive society, and hopes his art can contribute to that end.

Jay Bell is a businessman, artist, printmaker, a founder of Campana Studios art non-profit, and a newly appointed Commissioner for Arts and Culture in San Diego County. This man is a whole orchestra of different roles and he is successful in every one of them. I love bringing guests like this on the show because we can learn so much from them!
Jay's biggest goal is to create as many economic opportunities for local artists as possible and change the narrative of making artists volunteer their time and talent because their work should be valued and compensated! It's a huge undertaking, and as a San Diego artist myself, I am the most curious to follow Jay's journey.
Jump on this episode to learn more about Jay's vision for the local Arts and Culture and how he applies his philosophy to his own non-profit work.

This episode is different because my guest has very little to do with art besides opening his company's office for local artists as an alternative space for art shows and workshops. This unique choice is the result of changing work style after the pandemic. What else would you do with your underutilized facilities when 2/3 of the time you and your team work remotely? You might as well help out a local art community. Johnathan Hanwit, CEO of THINK Parallax did exactly that.

In this episode, I'm chatting with Morgan Hancock, a US Army veteran, mother of two, and founder of a unique art non-profit in Kentucky. Morgan decided to bond two things Kentuckians love - bourbon and art and created a truly fun and purposeful community-based organization that is shaping the arts and culture scene in the state. And the best thing is that Morgan is trying to make this model scalable so every state can have its own version of Bourbon With Heart!

In this episode, I'm venturing away from traditional visual media. My guest Susan Hensel has found a way to use industrial embroidery machines with their complicated software to create some amazing works of art! We are geeking on the details of her process because I actually have some experience with such machines as well. She is telling the story of her entire journey from being a traditional artist to discovering and developing her current art practice. We are also talking a bit about running an art studio and a gallery, getting grants, and other interesting things.
