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.

I am a huge fan of Sarah Stieber's colorful art, her vibrant personality, positive attitude, and strong confidence in all the great things. She works hard to make her way as an artist, although it may look on the outside like things are just happening in the best possible way. I'm honored to live in the same town with Sarah! And I really appreciate her time to tell her story and how much it takes to live a truly authentic, integrated art life.

In her words, it's better to invest 100% of your time to strive to make good art than be spending 50% of your time making money for someone else. 

Her abstract work includes scuplture, painting, tufting and many other mediums. She is inspired by the scientific discoveries, litrature on psycology and phisics.

Eugenia Brodsky is a photographer. She and her husband Samson, the video producer, are a part of the bright and dynamic Ukrainian creative scene. Moved by the united Ukrainian spirit, Eugenia followed and collected artworks created by Ukrainian artists from the first days of the war. Often disturbing and undoubtedly powerful, these images helped her cope with the horrible reality her fellow Ukrainians are facing.

I have known Judy Salinksy since 2018 when we both were members of the San Dieguito Art Guild. I admired her work as a painter and I watched her explore the world of bronze sculpture for the first time. But little did I know about her personal story, the challenging upbringing as an artist, and victorious battles with lung cancer... Whatever life has thrown her way, she has never given up on herself and her art.

ArtReach San Diego is one of my favorite organizations that I like to support. This is why they are making recurring appearances on ITAS :) And that's for a good reason! ArtReach is helping bring art and art education to schools and community centers that otherwise would have been left out due to lack of budget or other circumstances.

In this episode, I'm happy to introduce you to ArtReach SD mural program and its manager Isabel (Izzy) Halpern. Izzy and I are talking about the ways ArtReach is able to make every mural project a meaningful communal event and the effects this program makes on everyone involved.

I'm very excited to have Nellie Scott, Director of Corita Art Center in LA as my guest for this episode!

My very first introduction to Corita's art was in December 2019 when I was working on a project based on my series of influential women for a local charity auction. Corita's story, dedication to art and art education, and freedom of her spirit blew my mind! She spent most of her creative years as a Catholic religious sister of the order of Immaculate Heart of Mary in Los Angeles, CA. A woman artist (in the 1960s mind you!), an educator, an activist, and a leader - she embodied everything we praise today but unfortunately was almost forgotten by the art community in the last 3 decades. This is why Nellie Scott, an art historian, and Director of Corita Art Center is so passionate about saving Corita's legacy and introducing it to as many people out there as possible!

Some of you may know that I work part-time at a local fine art printing company here in San Diego. In one and a half years, I have learned so much about giclee and other creative ways of reproducing art! And that is thanks to my boss and mentor Mark O'Donnell - an artist, and a fine art printing industry veteran.

In this episode, Mark shares his personal story that led him from the art school to the fine art printing business when it was at the very beginning of its development. What I love about Mark is his openness and desire to educate and help every artist on what they can do take their art to a broader audience with prints.

In this episode, I'm chatting with a wonderful artist from Canada Allison Dawrant. I'm personally very excited about this conversation because I feel like I've known Allison for at least a few years. I've been following her work for a while and I've even stolen some of her work for my art classes and she was totally cool with it (that's how awesome she is!)

Allison embodies that unstoppable, kind, happy creative energy that draws people to seek and share her work. She's intuitively inventive with her art and more importantly - she feels and spreads the joy of it!

In this episode, I invited a Netherlands artist Christy de Witt to discuss her highly unusual style of art and talk about her inspiration. Turns out, Christy is a big fan of fairy tails! No, no, not those sugar-coated Disney versions of the fairy tails but the real ones that have deep roots in hundreds and hundreds of years of European culture. Grim, scary, ugly but so... human. This is exactly what Christy's "little monsters" are like - very relatable and true to human nature.

I couldn’t avoid addressing the current situation in Ukraine.

  • I don’t want to start an argument about what is right and what is wrong. All of this is wrong.
  • The only thing that is right is the support that people show to each other. And this is what I wanted to talk to you about.
  • The best thing we can do right now is to unite.
  • Don’t finger point. There’s so much misinformation on either side and it only dives us.
  • If you follow the news, please find as many different sources as you can to have a broad spectrum of information
  • Better yet, find real people you can talk to who have connections or families in Ukraine or Russia and who get to hear of what is going on from their loved ones locally.
  • Help as you can. Every little bit helps. I have a list of carefully vetted trusted organizations you can donate to on the blog post. https://intheartscene.com/2022/03/08/support-ukraine-with-art/
  • Use your voice online and offline to advocate for peace and humanity

And I have a word for my beloved art community.

We can do better! We are the ones who can inspire people in tough times! We are the ones to touch hearts and bring awareness!

  • So I’m starting a hashtag #supportUkrainewithArt and pledge to donate 100% of the proceeds from "buy me a coffee" and from the sales of our branded merch up until the end of the war in Ukraine to relief organizations.
  • I will also donate 50% of all my art prints sales as well.
  • I ask you to join me in this effort or spread the word about it. Use hashtag #supportUkrainewithArt to let people know that you support the movement.

In this episode, we are talking with Bea Gold - a 93-year-old working artist whose evergreen enthusiasm and child-like curiosity are inspirational and uplifting. Bea shared with us her life story about being an art student and a young artist in NYC in the 1940s, about her incredible legacy as an educator and a childhood development advocate (Pathways LA), and also about how she manages to stay tech-savvy in her 90s.
