Margo chats with the one and only Lisa Congdon to answer questions submitted by you and fellow Windowsill Chats listeners! Lisa is an American fine artist, author and illustrator and has worked for clients including MoMA, Harvard University, Martha Stewart Living, REI, and Chronicle Books among several others. 

Lisa delves on:

  • Finding your artistic voice
  • Boundaries and commitments
  • How she manages her work and productivity using spreadsheets and time blocking (and how you can too!)
  • Making time and space for both digital and analog work
  • Ways to get work with dream brands and clients
  • How she goes about setting visions and goals for all aspects of her life
  • Making space for work just for you and allowing yourself to be messy and imperfect
  • And sooo much more! 

Lisa works for many clients around the world and she is the author of eight books, including the starving-artist-myth-smashing Art Inc: The Essential Guide to Building Your Career as an Artist and her latest book Find Your Artistic Voice: The Essential Guide to Working Your Creative Magic. She was named one of 40 Women Over 40 to Watch in 2015 and she is featured in the 2017 book, 200 Women Who Will Change the Way you See the World. She lives and works in Portland, Oregon.

Want more Lisa? Good news, she will be coming back for more in depth topics on Windowsill Chats in the new year!
