On this episode, Paige interviews the incredibly talented landscape painter and founder of the Non Toxic Crit Group, Bri Custer. Bri shares her experience working as a full time art teacher and the decisions she made in order to become a full time artist. Paige and Bri reminisce about their time painting together in Italy and chat about the negative painting critiques they both experienced at art school in New Hampshire. Bri expresses the importance of art discussion, community, and how conversations with other artists about their negative critique experiences sparked the idea to create small virtual groups that dive deep into feedback, reflection, and process.
