Ways to keep your work fresh
Hello!
In today's episode Natasha and Mel chat about ways to keep your work fresh.
We have both found there are times when what we're doing becomes overly familiar and we loose the excitement that we initially had for what we were doing. In this episode we chat and share things we have found to be helpful in igniting that energy again. We hope you find it helpful and do let us know what you do to inject joy back into your practice.

Creating in a pandemic
Hello! In today's podcast we chat about all the things that have changed for our art practice and business since the beginning of the pandemic.
Rather than focus on the negative aspects we attempt to take a more positive outlook and see the opportunities and changes that have influenced us and how we are responding to them.
Natasha shares about how she has found new mediums to work in, whilst Mel shares about how she transitioned to teaching online, and both have been able to connect and collaborate with more people and during this time.
As always let us know if you have any questions, advice or thoughts on this subject. We'd love to hear what you're doing differently in your art business.
Speak soon,
Mel & Natasha xx
