I'm chatting with singer/songwriter, Katie Ferrara. Katie is an introvert who found a way to connect with people through playing music...on the streets of LA. She has spend a lot of time over the last couple of years as a busker. During our chat she opens up about how she found empowerment through busking. And it's so interesting to hear her take on performing on stage in a venue (which she also does) vs. performing on the street. She talks about how she went from only performing solo to finding a love of collaboration. And, she opens up about something many of us can identify with...the conflict between pursuing a career and having kids and settling down. In fact, she's got a song about that very topic, which she plays for us at the end of the show!

This week's chat is with illustrator, Shelley Couvillion. Shelley was kind enough to welcome me into her home to record this episode.
It's always such a treat to see the home, and the studio of an artist you admire. Now, usually when I picture the home and work space of an illustrator or painter, I imagine a bit of a lovely mess of paint, brushes, maybe drop cloths, pencils, and discarded drafts of illustrations strewn about. Shelley's space is absolutely lovely, but it is far from that artsy mess that I imagined. It's clean, neat, and everything has its place. She has a few of her own pieces tastefully hung, and no...there are no discarded sketches covering the floor. And, she manages to keep her space in working order with a two month old baby! How does she do it? She reveals her secret during our chat! ;)
As mentioned, in this episode we discuss the main action Shelley employs for keeping a clean work space. Shelley also tells us a bit about how she's developed her illustrative style, and how it has evolved in the course of going from drawing for comic books to illustrating children's books, and she explains the processes of both. She touches on the role motherhood plays in the projects she chooses to work on, as well as the types of illustrations she is creating these days.
Shelley's illustrations are, in my opinion, the perfect combination of dreamy and down to earth, much like the lovely Shelley herself! Give this episode a listen, and you'll hear what I mean!
