Inspirational

Sandra and Tara are not only beautiful artists but, quite possibly without knowing it, extremely inspirational.
They put the art in heART, sharing their accumulated knowledge with genuine love and care for the listeners art journeys.

I’m not an artist but an aspiring Jazz guitarist (hobbyist) and am finding inspiration to explore the colours of my music more deeply. I may even pick up a paint brush one of these days.

Thank you both so much for the knowledge and love you put out there, it’s truly appreciated.

It’s so lovely to have the veil of snobbishness lifted away from the art world. You both have amazing, unique and emotional art styles and share so freely. A rare and beautiful find in this crazy world.
Stay awesome x

Authentic Voice in Art

Sandra and Tara are refreshingly authentic in their approach to the world of art and creativity. They speak candidly due to their connection to each other as hosts, as well as their natural ability to get the best out of their guests. Worth listening to whether you are a seasoned creative or just beginning!

What a find!

Useful and wide ranging discussions that are a pleasure to listen to. Thank you
