In this week’s episode, mixed media artist Jess Boldt takes us on her inspiring journey of becoming a full-time professional artist. We delve into the importance of self-nurturing and creativity, particularly for parents, as Jess shares the challenges she faced and emphasizes the value of discipline and perseverance. Her encouraging words remind artists to keep honing their craft, knowing that unexpected opportunities can emerge along the way.

Jess captivates us with her distinctive style called "vintage urban," seamlessly blending her rural roots with urban influences. She reveals the significance of layers in her artwork, utilizing torn pages and collages to symbolize the scattered moments of her life. Through her creations, Jess conveys the empowering message that even amidst chaos and adversity, one can transform it into something truly beautiful. We also explore her passion for repurposing materials, as she breathes new life into newspapers from different countries, vintage books, and forgotten photographs.
