"Art is the food of our souls." - Isabel Hülya Ergül

What more can be said about the angelic vocals of our Episode 60 guest?! Isabel Hülya Ergül has lived a life of music from a very young age. She is classically trained as an choir singer and has progressed to become a powerful director of Antalya, Türkiye's own Choro Canzonetta; an international group of ameteur signers who love music and sing in multiple languages. I was extremely blessed to be a part of this group and perform in two concerts and my eternal thanks go to Isabel for her guidance and mentorship on improving my voice and trusting in me to tackle not only one, but two solos. Her story is inspirational and her voice will bring you to tears. She is a truly blessing to the worldwide music community.

"Music, when it's done the right way... people can come together. Feel that energy. Feel that vibe." - Afro Preachah

When your ancestors several generations back are men of the cloth, it would be natural and almost expected for you to preach the word of god as well. But then you find music.

James Porter III grew up in the church, sung gospel and loved creating music. A child of the 80's he also fell in love with hip-hop. Fast-forward and we now have Afro Preachah, spreading his own gospel and preaching the truth of life to those who may listen.

With a track featured on "Real Housewives of Atlanta" Afro Preachah is a seasoned veteran of the flow. He brings that southern black baptist flavor to his rhymes and in this podcast, the Preachah shares shares his wisdom with the Art Unknown congregation. Time for Chuuch!

"[Art is] a way of expression. It's something we need as human beings." - Sofia Zolezzi

Chilean visual artist Sofia Zolezzi has had a lifetime to prepare for her relatively new art career. From studying art at a young age to playing around in the art realm for most of her upbringing, she took a left turn somewhere along the way to become an engineer, then a mother and a teacher. But she was left unsatisfied in her engineering and even teaching career and with the support and encouragement of her husband, decided in 2020 to dive into art full-time. She began painting in earnest and to-date has had the incredible good fortune to have her work shown in galleries in seven countries across the world. Her art is whimsical, colorful abstractions that resonate with her positive energy and will brighten up any room.

We are so thrilled to also welcome Sofia as the latest addition to the Art Unknown Store. The multi-layered textures and colors of her work translate incredibly well to the Art Unknown clothing. Please enjoy the conversation, enjoy her colorful work and enjoy her exclusive collection at the Art Unknown Store.

"Art can really touch a person. It's very available for those who want to enjoy it." - Janet Dossigny

With this episode of the Art Unknown Podcast we bring you yet another artist who had a full life and career BEFORE she became an artist... of sorts. Janet Dossigny is a well traveled, deeply spiritual creative who spent part of her adult life in the painting business. House painting that is. Though not traditionally thought of an artistic endeavor, painting houses taught her much about the use of brushes and application processes which has translated well into her future artistic career. Janet has also taken her spirituality to a deeper experience and currently lives at the Peace Theological Seminary and studies a practice called Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness (MSIA). Her practice in spirit has transitioned into her art as Janet attempts to translate her meditative journeys onto paper and canvas. With wisdom and thoughtfulness, Janet promotes love and peace throughout her creative life.

We welcome Janet Dossigny as our latest artist to the Art Unknown Store. She has graciously shared a selection of her spiritually motivated art for use as a collection in the store. Please check out the vibrant colors and ethereal landscapes. They are a manifestation of her spirit and we are thrilled to share them with you.

"Art elevates our lives everywhere."

- Laura Viola Preciado

A career as a full-time mom only lasts until the kids are grown and out of the house. This presents a perfect opportunity to embrace a new calling and explore a second passion. Laura Viola Preciado did just that. She went back to school with designs on being a nurse practitioner, but somewhere along the way, she found her inner artist. With coaxing from respected teachers and incredible support from her husband, Laura embarked on her journey to art school. After her studies she moved to Whidbey Island just across from Seattle on Puget Sound and began working on her craft. Represented through a local gallery and becoming involved in the local art scene has helped Laura expand her skills and hone her craft.

We are extremely pleased to have an assortment of Laura's work on the Art Unknown Store. The lines and textures blend with splashes of color to make for compelling patterns on the activewear and accessories in her collection.

"You have to live every single day to the fullest because you don't know when you are going to leave."

- Suzanne Frazier

When life presents opportunities, it is the most aware among us that seize and create. After a lifetime of service and leadership in multiple industries, Suzanne Frazier rediscovered her artistic roots. A few classes in art led to a full blown fine art degree- 20 years after she finished college the first time. With a huge shift in her life, Suzanne embraced her artistic calling and went on to perfect what she call her contemplative process- creating art through a meditative awakening and a contemplation of one's connectedness to the world around them. She began to teach classes in her unique style and to this day enjoys sharing her wisdom with other seekers and creatives. This interview is a deep dive into the contemplative art form and we are grateful for Suzanne sharing her lifetime of experiences and wisdom. Finally- we are super thrilled to have Suzanne Frazier as an Art Unknown Store artist with an incredibly textured and brilliant collection of art.

"Don't be afraid to be yourself."

- Dr. John Bacon

Our Episode 54 guest is proof positive that we can transition from one successful career to another. With a fruitful medical practice as an orthopedic surgeon, John Bacon really had no reason to become an artist. But while on vacation and at the urging of his wife, they took a painting class together and he found a love for putting paint to canvas. He decided to pursue life as an artist as he was heading toward retirement from medicine. Making the wise choice to take a course on painting, Dr. Bacon grew in his depth and knowledge of color in ways that can be experienced through his wild abstractions. Having his art represented in galleries across Europe has given him as much pleasure as spending hours in his studio creating the art. We are also thrilled and grateful to share John Bacon's playful work in an exclusive collection in the Art Unknown Store. So, enjoy this captivating interview and enjoy his art; on the canvas and on our clothing.

"In our own way, every human being is creating their own masterpiece of themselves."

- Heidi Luerra

Though most of the Art Unknown Podcast interviews are with artists, every once in a while it becomes necessary to tap into the mind of an art influencer; to get deeper insights into the business side of art. However, to call Heidi Luerra just an influencer is a discredit to her artistic nature. Her humble beginnings in the fashion world led to a vision of creating something so unique in the arts, it is not surprising that others are excited to replicate it. With RAWartists Ms. Luerra grew a million-dollar business showcasing the work of other artists. From a single show to cities all over the world, RAWartists has exhibited tens of thousands of artists over eleven years. But like many businesses built on a live audience, the COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc on their successful business model. This story is one of resilience, and what looks to be a fascinating next chapter in the life and times of RAWartist founder and CEO Heidi Luerra.

***Be sure to listen to the end of the podcast for an amazing gift from Heidi!

"One should always believe in what he or she can create."

- Murat Germen

For many of the world's best artists, life didn't start out with dreams of art. Murat Germen walked a similar path. His degree in architecture and city planning left him feeling constricted and boxed in. Instead of stifling his creativity, he allowed his artistic side to flourish, leading him to his life's passion... photography. Ever the artist, and not wasting the years of study, Germen infuses his architectural sensibility in much of his work, in documenting the cities he finds himself in and even in the way he displays his art. As an international artist, Germen loves to collaborate when creating exhibitions and we at the Art Unknown Podcast are honored to be welcomed into this collaborative conversation.
