Creative Alchemy Monique Pantel

In this episode Lana shares about her journey as a designer and illustrator after her studies brought her to Berlin for nearly a decade. Lana shares about her approach to design & illustration: a process of parts curiosity and structure. She says “Within the structure you find freedom.” We also talk about vision boards bring a powerful tool for setting a course for yourself and your life.

Lana Belton is a designer, illustrator, ceramicist, and teacher. Her work is inspired by nature, mythology, and folklore. Lana is driven by curiosity, playfulness, and has an impossible-to-ignore-urge to create. She is a co-founder of the brand design agency Studio Skulptur and has recently relocated back to her hometown in Canada, with her husband and daughter after spending the last eight years in Berlin, Germany. 

I hope you enjoy this conversation with designer and illustrator Lana Belton.

I am so thrilled to welcome photographer and documentary filmmaker Anthony Do to the podcast. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Anthony several years ago and I can’t emphasize enough how wonderfully talented he is. His perspective of living life fully inspires me endlessly.

In this episode Anthony shares about his journey to finding his path and passion through photography - and by living life to the fullest through checking off his bucket list. A nomadic traveler raised in rural Alberta, he has been living on the road for the last six years with an ambitious mission to collect life's greatest stories through creating art and human connection.

Over the years, Anthony’s brand has narrowed the focus into luxury tourism. His specialization and passion is working with boutique hotels, luxury resorts and yachting companies.

Minimalism plays a large role in his lifestyle and artistic style. Anthony's fierce dedication to his craft has featured his work in several prestigious publications such as GQ, Conde Nast, Financial Times: How To Spend It, Jetgala, Centurion and many others.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with photographer and documentary filmmaker Anthony Do.
