Welcome back to ARTMATTERS the podcast for artists!

Today I’m joined by New York-based artist Tom Prinsell. Tom and I discuss his early career, commissioned art, mood boards, Blender and why he decided not to go to graduate school. And lots more. This week in Studio Notes, Tom shares his renewed focus on his color palette and i talk about my deep-dive into paint markers. This one was a real hoot. Give ‘r a listen!

Joining me this week on ARTMATTERS is New Zealand-based artist, Michael Greaves. I met Michael early on in my career, really when i was just starting out. Michael has been exhibiting professionally since 2001, which is just one of the many reasons i was so excited to talk with him today. To hear him discuss the ups and downs of his career, the changing art world, becoming a father, and the shifting impact of art history - sharing  years of experience like this is invaluable, as we all forge our individual paths and establish what it is we want from our own art careers.

Today on ARTMATTERS, I sit down with Brooklyn-based artist Andrea Emmerich.. Andrea and I discuss her approach to composition and image-making, "The Shift" (drastic changes in subject matter or practice),  definitions of success, and feelings of jealousy in artists.

This was a great conversation and  it served to remind me just how many 'unique' challenges in an artist's life are actually universal and the more we share with one another the stronger we become. That's what the ARTMATTERS Podcast is all about.

Enjoy the Show.

Mike Picos is a Queens-based artist who’s coming off a two-person show at NYC artist-run gallery, The Catskills. Mike got his BFA at Cornell University and currently has one foot out the door — as he’ll be attending Yale University for his MFA this fall. Congrats Mike!

Together Mike and I discuss his decision to apply to graduate school, leaving New York, his definition of success, his ongoing project the Rad Group (a NYC art literature platform) and the slippery definitions of painting abstraction versus representation.

Here's the second episode of ARTMATTERS where i speak to Brooklyn artist Dan Fig about the difficulties of and solutions to working in the studio when you're struggling emotionally, whether it's better to pay the bills with a job in the arts or something entirely different, and how to know if your art's "any good." This was actually the first episode of ARTMATTERS to be recorded so please forgive any confusion on that end.

Welcome to ARTMATTERS a new podcast by and for emerging artists. This episode myself and special guest Tom Levy take on some real head-scratchers like, "why don't more artists talk about their techniques?" "how important is branding in the art world today?" and the old favorite, "How do you know when it's time to get a Masters Degree?" Join Tom and I as we try our best to answer these and other questions and share some personal experiences in the art world along the way. Enjoy!
