Episode 14 is Art Ladders’ State of the New Year message for our listeners. Val and Armin discuss the goals and dreams for 2022. Basing decisions on Art Ladders’ Word of the Year, “Discover”, the hope is that 2022 will bring opportunities to develop abundant artwork and teach quality online classes. After a recap of 2021 art activities, they delve into an informal discussion of intentions and insights that will set up the coming year of 2022 to be productive and successful in their studio practice and art business lives.
