Episode 35: Laura Sprague on Visual Art, Surrender, and Healing Creative Impact Podcast
-
- Performing Arts
My guest for episode 35 is Professional Visual Artist and Professor, Laura Sprague! Laura is a Wife, Mother, Nana and Jesus Follower based in Houston, TX. She is a multidisciplinary Visual Artist (primarily a sculptor) who works in clay, glass and metal.
I loved learning about Laura’s process as an artist and her experiences both as a teacher and a professional artist. She received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Art Education from the University of Wisconsin with a minor in Jewelry-Metalsmithing.
Laura shares from her over 20 years of teaching experience ranging from elementary art to her current work teaching Ceramic classes at the college level. In May 2016, Laura completed a Master of Fine Arts degree at Houston Baptist University in Sculpture. We chat about that season in her life and the internal shift that took place from viewing herself an art teacher to then viewing herself as a professional artist.
Laura’s heart for serving people is evident throughout our conversation. I enjoyed talking with her about the power of art to bring healing, whether in our own lives or in the lives of others.
