Think it’s too late to pursue your art career? Think again.
In this episode, I’m talking to Caleigh Parsons, an artist who started painting in her 40s and is now making some MOVES. We’ll unpack her journey from gallery owner to artist, how powerful a community is for growing, and how creating your own opportunities can take you further than you’d ever imagined.
We talk about redefining what it means to be an artist — and why the right time to start is whenever you decide to. Get ready for a powerful conversation that will inspire, especially if you’re a new artist.
