This is episode 15 with Western Mass, Fillipina-American artist, Donnabelle Casis! Donnabelle is a painter, radio show host for the ArtBeat Report on the Bill Newman Show, co-curator for the ArtSalon, arts community organizer and much more! Donnabelle received her MFA in Painting from the University of Washington in Seattle. She has exhibited in museums and galleries across the US and abroad. She has received numerous awards and grants including the Neddy Artist Fellowship for Painting. This is a conversation about finding your center to find your sense of place, about asking questions, about those moments where you question your identity as an artist and how that can be a fertile place of beginning. It's a conversation of about releasing yourself from pressure and finding joy through play and trusting the process. It's also a conversation about the spiritual realm and how we are all interconnected and the role this plays in her new work. This conversation has so much wisdom in it! Please enjoy!
