based artist, Fiona Stanbury, shares her thoughts on painting and
process in this interview. Inspiring to Stanbury, early on, was her time

were part of what she took away from her time there. Also inspirational
was her studies under painter, Stass Paraskos, who was teaching at
Cyprus College of Art Lemba. Stanbury has some nice words about
Paraskos, who recently passed away. His inspiration lives on, as
mentioned throughout the interview, for Stanbury who studied his
teachings on being a brave painter, and also to draw with color, among
other disciplines. Listen in for more!The artist's website: http://www.fionastanbury.com/(Original intro song by David T Miller and Phillip J. Mellen. Outro music by Ani DiFranco and Utah Phillips)
