In this episode, we are chatting with Pamela Bates who is a self described “Soul-Fueled Abstract Painter” from New Hampshire.

We discuss how Pamela started off on the artist's path and she tells us a story about a visit to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston and how that experience changed her life. Standing in front of an artwork by John Singer Sargent she knew instantly that she needed to pick up a paintbrush and make art!

This episode covers interesting conversations around listening to your intuition and giving yourself permission to play. As well as working in her own practice Pamela is also a teacher and has a range of interesting online classes that is aimed at igniting creativity and tapping into intuition. Pamela also has a YouTube channel - see the links in the show notes below.

As a self-taught artist, she talks about letting intuition lead the way in her art career by letting it unfold and follow the next step in her art career. We discuss Pamela's collectors club and how she cultivates a sense of community and repeat collectors on Instagram. She does this by making an online event to showcase her art for sale for a limited time.

Pamela has an in person exhibit coming up from July to August at Blue Door Gallery in Mayne. She also has work on display at Windows on Water Art Gallery in Exeter. We really enjoyed this incredibly inspiring and motivating talk with Pamela.

We hope that you enjoy this episode!

Catch you in the next episode!

This fortnight, Ros and Laura bring you a really enlightening interview with Bree Morrison who is a Contemporary Landscape Painter and Human Design Reader. We start off learning a little bit about Bree’s creative practice, how she approaches her artwork through an intuitive painting process. She has spent the last 5 years pursuing her career as a professional painter and has her work displayed in a number of galleries and stockists in Australia.

In this episode we dig a little deeper with Bree’s journey into art as a child and into adulthood. Then turn to her work in Human Design. For those new to this modality Bree describes this system in an easy to understand way. She describes it as a tool to understand yourself on a deeper level. Bree describes the benefit of knowing and working with your Human Design type is allowing you to work in a more of an aligned way to your energetic blueprint and to live out what you came here to do.

We dig into the different energy types and Bree describes in general terms traits of each type. She also uses both Ros and Laura and also herself as examples as we all are different and our strategy and approach to life as a creative person looks very different according to this blueprint. If this has piqued your interest as a personal development tool - we also discuss how you can get a reading done for yourself. The links are available in the show notes.
