CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 259:

what a gift to spend time with gallery owners of golden spiral fine art - colby & sarah larsen!! i'm so grateful to be one of the 50 artists they currently represent in their 6 park city main street galleries (see in links below). in this sweet interview, hear how sarah & colby met at the airport (thanks to colby's sisters), were soon married the next year and began their grand adventure in art, business, infertility, blood banks, entrepreneurship, & family. they share about breaking through perceived glass ceilings, navigating an uncharted business model, learning to best support one another and cheer one another on along the way. there is advice for spouses and reminders of priorities, also suggestions specifically for artists. 

whether you're a seasoned or new collector of art, and aspiring artist, a solo soul wondering if marriage and family is really worth it, this is the episode for you. honest hardship, grief and sorrow, learning to trust god above all and let him guide your journey. tips on how to date after marriage - making sure you're not "dumping" but instead "decompressing" before starting the official date. learning how to take on the "balancing act" of knowing what are the best responsibilities for each spouse - which to share and which to take on solo. setting, going after and reaching goals together. realizing that in your pursuit, that you've not only found joy, but see it also in your children (the best fruit!).

5 artists who also podcast come together for our very first “pod-sisters” panel! this episode is all about tips to avoid burnout as artists. you’ll hear a brief intro to each artist, as well as what we’ve been working on in our studios (and even outside our studios!)  jules talks about the importance of having personal projects and examples of some that she’s pursued. rachel reminds us how vital it is to connect with other artists outside our studio and support one another in a way only fellow artists can. stephanie shares about her latest sabbatical and the benefits a regular sabbatical can bring to your art practice and personal well being. jessica just returned from a month in france & shares how to take a break from the admin side of your art biz and return to your studio refreshed, invigorated, and ready to tackle all your new ideas. katrina invites us to empower the word “NO” – how using it intentionally gives us the time & space to create in our studio, and embrace the “YESes” we really want to have in our professional and personal lives. in the links below, find an article by stephanie with 3 more ways to overcome creative burnout.
