We recap previous artists that inspire us throughout season one of the ITAS podcast. This journey brings us different perspectives and insight on how to enjoy being an artist and what it takes to succeed as an artist.
We kick off the episode discussing ArtReach San Diego’s community outreach coordinator, Anna Laroque. She pursued mathematics in college, but her passion for creativity guides her among the art community after accepting a position at ArtReach. Be sure to check out ArtReach San Diego at artreachsandiego.org for more information about their mission to make a living creating art.
Bea Gold’s bright and cheerful soul inspires others to think that nothing is impossible. Her discipline and curiosity motivate her to continue creating art because it’s what she loves. You can find Bea and her art on YouTube and Facebook, or directly purchase art and “Tell me a Story” book on her Etsy shop.
