Darin Jones became a full-time professional artist in 2003, and has been making art for over 40 years. Darin has a BFA with an emphasis in graphic design. He is a very diverse artist and nurtures several styles. He has been creating typography drawings and paintings for several years. From these sketches he has produced typography books that can be used as journals and for doodling or coloring the pages. Some of his designs are even making their way onto clothing. His interest in geometrics and his background in graphic design led him to experiment with images using the letters of the alphabet. We wrap up the interview with one of Darin's favorite quotes, "If you feel impressed to do something, act on that impression." Darin lives in Salt Lake City, Utah and is devoted to his teen-age daughter. He can be reached at www.darinjones.com as well as other links on his website.

You may also find Darin at darinjones (Pinterest), darintheartist (Instagram), darinjonestheartist (YouTube), and darintheartist (Twitter).

Darin is hand-painting his typography designs on apparel. To have him paint on one of your own pieces contact him through www.darinjones.com or email him at [email protected] for more information. As a sponsor of "The Artist's Voice," Darin painted the design for "Broadway" in NYC on my denim jacket... see the spotlights on center stage.

About the Show

Doug Frohman is an accomplished artist and curator. He recently curated"Vitality Rising: A Five-Artist Dialogue." The show was held at the Zhou Brothers in Chicago, Illinois. Doug has shown his work at a number of galleries and museums, and has many collectors throughout the nation.

Doug focuses on contemporary painting. He attended Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. From an early age, he studied meditation and spiritual psychology.

As if all this doesn't keep him busy enough, he does consultlng in online marketing for start-ups.

In a recent exchange, Doug stated "As Hemingway remarked, it is [art] a movable feast. Something that truly engages us, with endless twists and turns. It is something above the everyday... it is created and exists above the everyday, non-utilitarian and thereby can take us, both in creating and observing it, to a place of value, of perception and ultimately awareness and so lifts us into an open area, one unbound by constricting definitions or detained by limited imaginations."

Doug and his wife, Paula, live in Chicago, Illinois.

About the Show

In recent past years, I was interviewed by Kim Rodeffer-Funk and Andrea Hupke de Palacio from Atelier 325. Once again I have connected with both Kim and Andrea and we have become quite good friends and find we have much in common. This episode is my interview with Kim; I interview Andrea at a later time. Kim and I connected from her home in Missoula, Montana. With a background in design for thirty years, Kim stated that many of the elements of design are also applicable in art. She is an abstract expressionist and enjoys experimenting with different media. We both share an interest in oil and cold wax. Kim has lived all over the world which inspires her work. Kim is married to Steve and they have two adult children and have recently become new grandparents. She can be reached at www.kimrodeffer.net.

About the Podcast

"The Artist's Voice" empowers artists to tell their stories and talk about their art. Not only is the podcast informative but also entertaining. This is an opportunity for both emerging and professsional artists to have a voice. Furthermore, it gives listeners connections with artists they otherwise might not have. Most people never have the experience of visiting an artist's studio. Through the podcast listeners can indirectly make those connections.

After the initial launch, episodes will be posted weekly on Mondays.
