A great visit with Bryant Shaw and Vanessa Byrd of Halisi Africa in Railroad Square Tallahassee. Halisi Africa is an amazing store with authentic African apparel, jewelry, art, and food. And try the teas out too! I found this conversation to be immensely engaging, and it was a privilege to talk to my Railroad Square neighbors and make new friends. I think you will enjoy this too!

A great conversation with artist, woodworker, and musician, Mershell Sherman. Mershell began using his artistic skills to heal himself after the loss of his twin sister, and has since taken his talents to lift up and offer healing interactions with his community. Don't miss this one!

In this episode, I am joined by one of the South's most prolific contemporary artists and muralists, Kollet Hardeman. Having made a name for herself in Tallahassee with her pop art and murals blanketing the city, I catch up with her after her move to Austin, Texas. This episode is sure to be colorful in art talk, and ah, maybe some of Kollet's signature vernacular! *note - some profanity :-o

In this episode, I talk to renowned multi-media and resin artist Quia Atkinson (QZDesigngallery.com) and learn about what has inspired her to create her beautiful artwork. Using her experience as traveling all over the world, Quia's resin paintings are marvelous and her art wisdom is not to be missed!
