Today's episode is a little bit different.  You get to be a fly-on-the-wall on one of the art conversations Sandra and I would normally have off air.  It all started when I asked a Sandra a question after we'd recorded a podcast and she said, why not record this and let's see what happens.  SO we did, and there's no editing either.  So get your paints out and join us for some studio art chat.   Our Sponsor Evolve Art This podcast is sponsored by Evolve.

Not only do I not like talking in front of a lot of people I had absolutely no idea what to say.
