204. Turning Passion into Legacy: How An Artist Blends Art, Sports, and Purpose - With Vinnie Candelore Of 1 Team Media


Listen Later

In this episode of The Real Build, I sat down with Vinnie Candelore, the creative director at 1 Team Media and owner of VC2 Art. Vinnie specializes in a wide range of artistic mediums, including paintings, custom shoes, art prints, and murals. He also hosts The Athletic Aesthetic Podcast, where art and sports connect through engaging conversations.

Vinnie grew up working from a young age, and after trying out different jobs, he never found something he truly loved. However, as a child, Vinnie always had a passion for drawing and painting. After walking away from a job, he decided to fully commit to his true passion—painting—and the rest is history.


Today, Vinnie paints portraits of some of the top athletes in various sports and designs custom shoes for many of them. He has also become a major contributor to the growth of 1 Team Media in Pittsburgh, PA.

Vinnie and I discussed several topics, including:


  • Why it's essential to pursue your true passion and find a job where you give back, not just take.
  • The perfectionist mindset.
  • Building a lasting legacy through the gift of art.
