For #thankfulthursday this month, as I think about artists and art teachers I owe a lot to, I think back to COVID times, when the @theleftbrainartist podcast from @suzanneredmondart made my world bigger instead of smaller. She introuced me to many other artists that I follow and have learned from to this day.

The podcast ended in 2022 as Suzanne redirected her focus to other endeavors, including her own art. And that’s another good lesson – don’t be afraid to move on to the next great thing when it’s time. (But you can still find episodes on any podcast app)
