Isis Rodriguez is a well-established career artist based in Mexico and we had the pleasure of interviewing her in December for the podcast Reflections on Art. The interview with Isis Rodriguez was a fascinating discussion where we covered a wide range of topics from art history and art careers, to women in society, religion and spirituality, archetypes, and finally onto internet dating and the eternal quest for love and acceptance. In her observations on life and the world, Isis easily moves between the profane to the profound, just like her art.

Reflections on Art Episode 4 - "The Lives of the Artists: Part I"
We are pleased to present a new series of episodes for the Reflections on Art podcast! Chiara Gomiselli, Tatyana Ostapenko and Melissa Corbett will be taking a wild ride through the wild world of art history by looking at many of the stereotypes that plague the public’s perceptions of the lives of artists. The title of the new podcast series is inspired by Giorgio Vasari’s deliciously gossipy book “The Lives of the Artists” which recounts the biographies of his contemporaries, who were various Italian Renaissance and Mannerist artists. In this episode, we will be looking at the stereotypes: The mentally ill artist: The lives and work of Vincent Van Gogh and Yayoi Kusama. The tortured artists: The lives and work of Edvard Munch and Tracey Emin. Make sure to like and subscribe to keep updated on our monthly podcast!

In Episode 3 of the Reflections on Art podcast, Chiara Gomiselli and Tatyana Ostapenko have again joined Melissa Corbett to discuss “How to Create an Audience for Your Art”.

Artist Chiara Gomiselli comes from a marketing background and has some sage advice for artists who are promoting their own work on social media. This episode is a must-listen for any artist who wants to learn more about marketing their art!
Even though this topic might seem dry and business-like, the panel discussion was so eloquent and soulful that the content on this episode is approachable for even the most marketing or sales sceptical artist around.
