'One Summer in Maine' 9x12 pastel ©Karen Margulis available through Daily Paintworks $150 click here |
Music? I love music and listen to music when I am painting something big or important like a commission. My choice in music changes and I often pick something that suits the mood of the painting. But when I am puttering around the studio I prefer talk.
This week I stumbled on my new love.....Art Podcasts! I know you are thinking I must have been hiding under a rock. I didn't realize there was such a treasure trove of art talk podcasts out there. I have listened to 3 so far this week and it has been the best discovery. Not only do I get to hear adult conversation....it is conversation among artists. I listened to a wonderful interview with Quang Ho and the Evolution of Seeing and had to stop and take notes! Even if I played it more than once I'm sure I will learn something else. Here is the link to this show
I plan to listen to as many podcasts as I can before I am caught up. Even if I am busy painting or doing other tasks, it will benefit me to hear art related information. And they are fun! I'm so excited!
Here are the two websites that offer art podcasts that I have found. If you know of others I'd love to learn more!
- Artists Helping Artists with Leslie Saeta. This fantastic show is the #1 art show on Blogtalk radio. You can visit the blog and see what is coming up as well as sign up for updates and listen to past shows. http://artistshelpingartistsblog.blogspot.com
- Artist Mentors Online AMO Art Chat with Linda Fisler. Here is the link to the website where you can read about the programs as well as listen on demand to the programs http://www.lindafisler.com/amo-art-chat/

Well, move over...that rock must have fallen on me too! Haven't heard of Art Podcasts...or any other kind of podcasts! But I'll look it up! Thanks for sharing!
This lovely piece caught my eye at DP, so I had to come here to tell you how much I like the simplicity and freshness. It has just the right amount of work in it and not too much!
Hi Carly! I know! I don't know where I've been but it has been fun catching up!
