In this episode, I’m talking to Brandi Hofer @brandihoferstudios about her move from traditional studio work to a multi-faceted practice that includes writing a book, creating teaching programs, mentoring and now paining giant murals.

Brandi is incredibly generous and has created a thriving community through freely sharing what she does.

I have thought about this conversation a lot since we talked and I think you'll find it very inspiring and thought provoking too!

She’s an incredibly driven, fun, brilliant, passionate human and extremely talented photographer.

On Art Rebound episode #1, Susan talks to Kylin O’Brien, a friend and artist colleague of many years from New York.

They discuss how Kylin has survived and thrived over the decades she has been an artist and get into some very real conversation about what it takes to keep going as an artist in New York City.

After years of questioning what she was doing, Kylin has become incredibly adept at self-care and shares some of her insights and tactics for navigating and sustaining a deeply committed creative life.
