71 - bouncing ideas

We can all have those racing thoughts and going-nowhere ideas, but when you’re a solo artist, hiding away in your studio space, who do you turn to? Who do you share and bounce ideas off?  Sometimes it takes a friend, accountability partner or mentor to hold a mirror up to us to realise just how much we’re capable of. Are you part of a mastermind group, do you love your mentor? Who’s championing you?  Finding someone or something that works can be as easy as asking. @karengeorgeart and @gaynorljart have experienced the different support networks and share what’s working for them right now.  Episode Links:  Idea bench image credit:  Nick Fewings on Unsplash #dothe100dayproject  https://visual-artists.org @visualartistsassociation @kvhs_creative Karen Van Hoey Smith Connected Artist Club https://alicesheridan.com/artists/ Art Tribe https://www.louisefletcherart.com/art-tribe Art2Life CVP  https://www.art2life.com @sarahbodenart https://sarahbodenart.com  @raemelodyart https://www.raemelodyart.com Hidden Potential Adam Grant Stephen Bartlett Adam Grant Diary of a CEO @jacksons_art @debbeckett About the podcast Gaynor Leverett-Jaques and Karen George are both full time artists, living and working in South West of the UK, sharing experiences and the ups and downs of living the painting life.
