Savage Wonder, Episode 15 with artist Sarah Rossetti, or, as she is known on Instagram @_invadergirl_. Sarah finds a way to create mythic canvases that capture the nobility and struggle of military and first responder lives without becoming propagandistic or shallow. A former Air Force brat she comes to her admiration of the military and first responder community honestly. Her decade tending bar for troops transiting through Guam made her a witness to resilience and nobility of purpose that she captures in her work now. She and I have a great conversation that ranges from her butting heads with her art teachers to getting punched in what it takes to become a full-time artist in only two years.
