Episode 574: Today I chat with legendary artist Mary Englebreit, who is probably the first artist I ever loved & followed. I grew up in a home that was basically a shrine to her. [My mom calls herself the “Queen of Everything,” based on one of Mary’s pieces]. She takes me on her journey from a job as an illustrator in an ad agency right out of high school to presiding over the empire she currently holds.

Episode 540: Today I chat with Charlotte entrepreneur and ArtPop Street Gallery founder, Wendy Hickey. She transformed a career selling billboards into fine art, literally turning our streets into a gallery and featuring local art on billboards and signal boxes and supporting artists, as well. I talked to her in Episode 116, when she was starting, out doing it all herself. Now she and her staff are able to support and promote artists than she ever dreamed. She tells me how she did it.
