I Can't Quit You: The Themes We Keep Coming Back to in our Art

From catastrophes to rolling vineyards to beautiful, but sorrowful, felled birds, Joy and Teresa are talking about the themes that make repeat appearances in their artistic expressions and try to understand why. They share a story they received in response to the last episode that talked about creative ways to find time for art. In Rabbit Holes and Recommendations, the discussion starts with the early works of Thomas Kinkade and moves to Elizabeth Siddal, one of art’s most famous muses and the surprising twist to the story of her life (and death!) This episode’s nostalgia segment puts to rest the story of how Teresa was allowed (and whether she even had permission) to paint a Peter Gabriel mural in her college dorm.~Show Links & References~The Unseen Art of Thomas Kinkade by James GurneyThe Art of James GurneyOphelia by Sir John Everett Millais, 1851The Pre-RaphaelitesElizabeth Siddal as Herself: Artist, and Muse.Highgate CemeterySo, by Peter GabrielThe Art of the Band T-Shirt This is a public episode.
