Episode 99- Autumn Skye Nov 08, 2021

Show notes

Autumn Skye Morrison (@autumnskyeart) is a painter living in British Columbia Canada. Topics in this episode include Autumn's unique upbringing, why she thinks the trope of the 'starving artist' is false, teaching and being taught by art, how she listens to her paintings and let's her intuition guide her process and many more interesting and inspiring points. I think you'll enjoy this episode, Autumn is a pillar in the visionary/festival art community and she shows her wisdom and experience in this conversation. Her work speaks directly to the heart, with a connection to nature that is undeniable and this really comes through in the way she speaks.
