Welcome to an eco-conscious, practical podcast by artists, for artists, where we dissect the sacred cows of the eco-art business.

Here you'll find cold supply-chain audits, environmental regulatory loopholes, unvarnished carbon accounting, and a practical roadmap to safely transfer to sustainable studio upgrades and genuinely non-toxic art supplies without embarrassing yourself in front of new generation of collectors.
