  <itunes:subtitle>Many of us live lives based on habit and predictability--we aim for expected results, and generally avoid uncertainty and disruption. But our guest today, Laurie Rosenwald, challenges us to steer away from the tried and true in order to bring freshness and spontaneity to our lives and work. Laurie is a New York City-based illustrator, artist, designer, and book creator whose work is a mix of collage, drawing, painting, and storytelling.

In addition to her many editorial illustrations for a wide variety of publications, Laurie has created animation, product design, and leads an ongoing workshop, "How to Make Mistakes on Purpose."
Laurie talks about her unconventional life and what led her into her current work with encouraging people to open up to random occurences  and unplanned situations. She believes in surprise and in taking people out of their expected outcomes and fear of being judged.

Rebecca and her partner Jerry McLaughlin are excited to be launching year two of Cold Wax Academy's membership program, which began in October of 2020. In the coming year, live online learning sessions will feature an entirely new set of topics---beginning with a deep dive into technique and the steps involved in developing a painting. Other topics for year 2 include professional development, abstraction and realism, principles of design, and expanded uses for cold wax medium. 
As always, members have access to recordings of all previous sessions including everything from the first year, so it's easy to join anytime. Fall Quarter begins October 6th. Please visit http://www.coldwaxacademy.com for details about membership levels and to sign up for a year of exciting learning experiences. 
Here is what a member named Sandy has to say about her own experience:
"Rebecca and Jerry have presented the most professional, authentic and structured approach to a creative activity I have ever come across.  Their selfless sharing of all their knowledge and encouragement is a gift in my life unsurpassed."

    <![CDATA[<p>We interview Jason Horejs of Xanadu Gallery and RedDotBlog.com on the best way to market yourself and your work to galleries. This interview was conducted using Streamyard and went out live on Facebook. Once again we aren&#39;t able to produce the highest quality audio right now due to the move, but we still want to put out some great content. This is one of the most valuable interviews we have ever done, so don&#39;t skip it! Thanks again to all of the well wishes from listeners pertaining to the move and recent announcment that Ross&#39;s wife is pregnant.  </p>

  <description>Have you ever wondered what is it like to be involved in a collaborative project with other artists? What are the challenges and benefits of creating works of art with others who share your aesthetic vision? How could you get started, and what kind of ground rules or boundaries do the artists involved need to agree upon? 
In today's episode, Rebecca interviews California artist Phyllis Lasché about her involvement with Stone Soup, a collaboration of three artists--two sculptors and one painter--who develop their work by passing it from one to another. Phyllis gives us an inside look at this exciting process and what she has gained from it in her own work.

  <description>Rebecca Crowell interviews Paula Roland about her life as an artist and entrepreneur. 
(From https://paularoland.com/roland-bio/)
Paula Roland is a life-long artist and teacher with an MFA in painting and sculpture from the University of New Orleans. After many years teaching painting and drawing at the college level, Paula found a niche specializing in encaustic monotype printing and related encaustic topics. Since 1996, these processes and materials have informed her own works, and in turn inspired her teaching.
Born on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Paula spent much of her adult life living and working in nearby New Orleans. Her works address the extremes in nature and the natural world’s nexus with ecology, science, art, and spirit. Since the early 1980s her works have examined natural phenomena and human interaction. Drawn to areas with a strong sense of place that are culturally rich, diverse, and visually inspiring, Roland moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico in 1989.
“Living near Los Alamos National Labs and Chaos Theory think tanks has led to a heightened interest in science, including systems, fractals, and strange attractors. In recent works, I examine ecology through intuitive mapping, finding my way in rapidly changing environments in the natural world through my art. I choose materials for their ability to be somewhat unpredictable or have the ability to change and therefore partner with me in making the work. This process circumvents preconceived ideas and opens me to new possibilities. I engage with the image and medium in a direct and intimate way. With encaustic printing, thought and action are one, much like improvisational music or dance.”
Roland’s awards include commissions from the National Endowment for the Arts and for the US Department of State’s American Embassies in South Africa and Uganda. She was awarded residencies at VCCA in Virginia and in France, and two at the Santa Fe Art Institute, working with Lynda Benglis and with Elizabeth Murray. Articles on Paula Roland have appeared in New American Painting, Surface Design Journal, Artist’s Magazine, New Mexico Magazine, the Santa Fean Magazine and Vasari21 online art magazine. Her works are included in books and media on art, encaustic and installation.
