With Painter James Fowler (Episode 70)
<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>: James talked about the importance of planning and long term planning in a business practice. He shared his inspiration behind his maps - an homage to the iconic Canadian landscape as well as the culture and people who make up this country. He shared the strategy behind creating hand embellished prints and the ability to make art more accessible to more people. We laughed as we talked about his rapid rise to TikTok stardom. We ran out of time so....will do part 2 in a few months! <strong>About the Artist:</strong> Drawing inspiration from aerial views of cities and maps, James Fowler's acrylic, oil and gouache works on canvas, paper, and wood are playfully geometric and resonate with the digital world, and culture of online information distribution. His non-traditional landscape paintings borrow from cartography and geometric abstraction, and celebrate both urban centres and rural living. He attended York University in Toronto for Film Studies and maintains a full time studio practice as a painter in Toronto. His work has exhibited in Canada and United States, and his work can be found in private and corporate collections in Canada, US and Europe. <br>To see more of James's work, please visit:</p> <p>· <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jamesfowlerart/"><strong>Instagram </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://www.facebook.com/JamesFowlerArtist1/"><strong>Facebook </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://iamjamesfowler.com/art" target="_blank"><strong>Website</strong></a> </p>

With Painter Michael Wills (Episode 69)
<p><strong>Synopsis:</strong> Michael shared his fascinating journey from professional hockey player to artist...the challenge of leaving one love to pursue another and the loss of community. He talked about masculinity and about channeling this as a way to communicate feelings and emotions. He creates dynamic, bold and energetic paintings that capture these emotions perfectly. <strong>Artist Statement/About the Artist: </strong>Born just outside of Toronto, Ontario, like many young Canadians, Michael Wills grew up with a hockey stick in his hands. For over 20 years, Michael put his passion and energy into playing pro hockey but little did he know, an entirely different skill would become a driving force in his life. Soon, the hockey stick would be replaced with an artist’s brush. Every piece that Michael creates is the product of an intense release of emotional energy. His passion and creativity are expressed in a kaleidoscope of colours as he glides across each canvas with a pallet knife, giving his work a rough, energetic feel, that many have referred to as “masculine” in style. Michael’s inspiration comes from the energy and movement of the city, which he feels is best captured in the city lights. </p> <p>To see more of Michael's work, please visit:</p> <p>· <a href="https://www.instagram.com/michaelwillsart/"><strong>Instagram </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://www.facebook.com/michaelwillsart"><strong>Facebook </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://www.michaelwillsart.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Website</strong></a><strong> </strong></p>

With Painter and Printmaker Susanne Clark (Episode 68)
<p> <strong>Synopsis:</strong> Susanne talked about her recent move back to New Zealand and how it is a challenge getting started on your art practice after a big change and how important it is to find your local art community. She shared how she makes collagraph handprints and how she created an online course to share this unique form of printmaking to others. I am looking forward to seeing how her art changes with the different scenery! <strong>Artist Statement:</strong> "I'm an artist who loves to paint, create Collagraph Handprints and Sculpt. I also find people fascinating to draw and paint. One of the joys of my life is to share my passion for art and the life enhancing effect of creativity with others. I teach workshops for art clubs, work internationally with people in my online video printmaking course and occasionally teach in my studio. My overall vision for my life is to become more compassionate as a person and reduce suffering upon this planet. In my art life it is to create well considered, uplifting and authentic art and then have it go out into the world to bring joy and pleasure to others." </p> <p>To see more of Susanne's work, please visit:</p> <p>· <a href="https://www.instagram.com/SusanneClarkArt/"><strong>Instagram </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SusanneClark.artist/"><strong>Facebook </strong></a><strong></strong></p> <p>· <a href="https://www.susanneclark.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Website</strong></a><strong></strong></p>
