Marin Conrad is an amazing artist and designer, who co-founded Prosper Design Studio, and is the artist-in-residence for The Andaz Napa . She’s sold her own art work through out California and as far away as Tel Aviv. She even had a bit of controversy a few years ago surrounding her  set painting titled “Politically Vulnerable”.

We talk about the obstacles artists face trying to make a living through art, how Prosper Design is giving artists a leg up on getting people to notice their art work while they eat their dinner, and why using your enthusiasm and saying “yes” can open up a world of possibility.

Thanks for stopping by and listening to my conversation with Maren Conrad.
