I Heard You Can Draw!
Do you love to draw? In this podcast, we will be talking about how drawing can be a way to connect with the world around us. We will look at artists from the past and present as well as my own experiences from a lifetime of drawing! What I hope you get from listening to this podcast is a sense of community with others who love to draw as much as I do! Make sure to subscribe and review. New episodes drop on Wednesdays, starting on October 4.
I Heard You Can Draw!
E9: Your Talent is a Gift That You Must Use - with Guest Artist Jen Fisher
Jen Fisher is a local artist and art instructor here in Boca Raton.
She joins us to talk about her life as an illustrator working for an interior design firm in NYC, before this was done on computers. Once she was burned out from that stressful work, she created architecture-inspired jewelry, became an art instructor and began painting in an unconventional way! Throughout her life, her surroundings have strongly influenced her process and products.
Her daily observational drawings during the Covid quarantine are a part of the William & Mary Libraries Blog, and her work has been featured on the cover of Art and Culture of Palm Beach County in 2018. She has also been featured in Boca Magazine and the Sun Sentinel.
