Rebecca's Interview on Art Ladders Podcast

About this Episode

Today’s episode is thanks to Valerie Allen and Armin Mersmann, producers of the podcast, Art Ladders: the Creative Climb. In May, they interviewed Rebecca about her background as an artist, her process, development, teaching, and ideas. Their conversation also delves into the unique characteristics of cold wax medium, and why Rebecca was drawn to develop techniques for its use. Both Val and Armin are artists themselves, and their thoughtful questions led to the wide-ranging and insightful conversation that we are pleased to share with you on this episode. Rebecca’s exhibit that is mentioned in the interview, at Slate Gray Gallery in Telluride, CO. is currently on view through the end of this month. Art Ladders podcast is available on Apple podcasts, Spotify and Podbay, and via their facebook page and Instagram. So let’s listen now to the Art Ladders interview with Rebecca, recorded in May, 2024.
