This week's episode is a bit of a change of pace and a real treat for people who are thinking about pursuing art, but haven't taken the plunge. Benjamin L.M. is an Australian artist, and this episode's guest. He loves the classics ,most people who have studied art in school have thought about, Cezanne, Gauguin, Picasso, and Van Gogh among others. The thing that makes him so exciting is that he didn't study art, he grabbed art-making by the horns after seeing a traveling show and discovering that paintings in real life are actually alot cooler than how they look in books. He became infatuated with art 14 years ago, and now nearing the middle of his life, is expressing himself through any outlet he can; fashion collections, painting, books, music, and now PODCASTS! Benjamin is a soulful guy and a true inspiration to push yourself as a human, to be creative, productive, happy, and motivated. If you wanted to listen to the Art Pros sh*t on art like we normally do...this is not the episode, but if you want to hear Benjamin, a later-in-life creator who is swinging for the fences, truly encapsulate the romance of making art as a state of being... this is the right place. We will be back with the real art world critique hours shortly.Benjamin L.M. is auctioning his work right now, "We're more like Angels than Monkeys" through Art Market Place, go check it out.Benjamin L.M.Auction[https://bit.ly/3ekHWMs]Website[https://www.benjaminlm.com]Fashion[https://www.redbubble.com/people/benjaminlm7/shop]The Art Pros[More on www.artprospodcast.com • follow us on IG @paid.artists • donate to our patreon at patreon.com/artprospodcast • email us [email protected]]
