In EPISODE 4 of SEASON 2 we chat with Kristin Zuller about her creative journey from being a tap, jazz & ballet dancer in grade-school to being a multi-disciplinary artist consisting of Illustration, Murals, & Graphic Design.
We get into chatting about her kids being creatives in their own right, still figuring out what she wants to say with her personal artwork, being ok having a “see what happens” mentality when it comes to creating & much more.
We then dive into conversations surrounding the following questions:⠀
- What is the end game for you? (What’s is the overall goal for you, your work & artistic career)⠀
- What happens when the work isn’t enough? (What do you do, how do you feel when things outside of your control affect your opportunities and work?)⠀
- Who or what determines what “better” is for us in-terms of our art? ⠀
- How do we as artists measure growth for ourselves? ⠀
