Gary Ernest Smith (Part ONE): Western Landscape Painter - Epi. 139, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

This is part one of a two-part podcast.Part one of a two-part podcast.Now Gary Ernest Smith is a guy who has been painting basically his whole life and he tells us some very interesting stories, not only of how he got to do what he did in life, but also how he became the successful western landscape painter he is today. I love that about doing a podcast by the way. I get to be a part of that moment in time when an artist decides "this is what I have to do." Early on in his artistic journey, Gary was drafted into the Vietnam war. He ended up becoming a war artist for the army, working as a teacher at a military school, and finally just came to the realization that he had to create amazing pieces of art.Gary has incredible words of wisdom about how to be successful in the arts. Gary even says that there were some things that he would have done differently that didn't work out how he expected. For any of those artists out there who might be in that same type of boat that Gary was in, this podcast will prove to be very helpful and full of insight. Gary Ernest Smith is just a tremendous artist and I'm happy to have him on this episode of Art Dealer Diaries
