Welcome to The Art Box! I’m your host, MJ Stiles, and today we’re recording from our Mesquite Works STEAM Center studio with someone who’s been lighting up the local art scene since his early teens.
Liam Gutierrez has been a featured artist at Juniper Outpost Boutique in Mesquite, Nevada since he was just 14 years old. Beloved by customers and deeply appreciated by shop owners Charlotte and David, Liam’s work is a staple of the boutique’s vibrant, creative atmosphere. Whether it’s intricate crochet, bold digital designs, or one-of-a-kind jewelry, Liam brings a fearless and joyful approach to everything he creates.
Now, having just graduated high school, Liam is stepping boldly into the professional art world. In his own words: “Hi! My name is Liam Gutierrez, and I'm an artist! Crochet, jewelry making, digital art—there isn't anything that's tripped me up yet! For as long as I can recall, art has been a huge part of my life and who I am. Now that I’ve graduated, I’m ready to enter the professional art world and make a name for myself!”
Today’s episode is all about creative courage, growing up with artistic passion, and what it means to turn that passion into a career. Let’s dive in!
