In this episode, Beth sits down with painter Nancy Cloonan in her vibrant, plant filled home studio. Nancy shares her journey from studying printmaking and photography to finding her "true love" again through abstract painting. They dive deep into the technical side of acrylics, the value of repetition in art, and how Nancy’s commitment to a daily sketchbook practice has transformed her work.

The Painting Wall: Why working on multiple pieces at once is a dream for maintaining momentum.
Material Geek Out: Using wood panels, gloss mediums, and the magic of Neocolor II water soluble crayons.
