In this episode, Alison Wells shares her story of how she came to be an artist, gallery owner, and teacher. She shares her journey of perseverance as she had her light stamped out when her dreams of being a "gallery owner in Paris" were broken down by a teacher that laughed and told her she would starve if she pursued such a passion. However, the universe would have it no other way and Alison was destined for exquisite, creative endeavors! 

Her love for gratitude and the healing power of art inspired her to lead a gratitude journal course throughout the pandemic as everything went virtual, and she and Kellee discuss what a huge shift that was for many artists and how this continues to evolve in the art community as well as for small businesses. Alison has adjusted her dreams, feels accomplished in her gallery and calls New Bedford the Paris of New England, and loves the community she has built there.
