Rosanne Mckenney creates the type of figurative work that transports me back in time. Not back in my time, but lifetimes ago, so it came as no surprise to learn that she spent her childhood in Italy! 
This week the Gulf Coast artist shares with us the impression that living amongst renaissance art made, being a self-taught artist, and what to do when you are bored in surgery. 
Hear all that and more in this week's episode of Spotlight on, the artist to artists conversation podcast.
*UPDATE* Daughters of Eve, at the George Ohr, will be in February, and the reception on the 18th.

When I think of the palette knife, it sends a shiver down my spine. My anxiety spikes, and I immediately transport back to the days of insecurity and ignorance. It gives me a more comprehensive appreciation for the work of Mississippi artists like Denise Hopkins.
I often reference her birds series whenever asked about the tools of her trade and the thriving live wedding painting business she has developed when they ask about possibilities.
This week Denise shares her story with us about growing up with little art in her childhood to opening her very own gallery in Pass Christian, Mississippi.

If you asked me for the name of someone who eats life for breakfast and loves every minute of it, I would have to tell you, Paulette Dove.
Paulette is a figurative painter whose work filters friends, family, and everyday life through fun and fantasy. Listening to her bold confidence as she interviewed inspired me to push my work forward, and I hope it inspires you too!
You can currently see Paulette's work displayed at the Biloxi Visitors Center, the South Mississippi Art League at the Biloxi Greenhouse, and work carried by The Treehouse Gallery in Oxford.
keep your eyes peeled in February for her team up in the community gallery at the Ohr O'keefe Museum

Hello Artists and Art lovers! This week we are joined by Andrea Kostyal out of Hattiesburg, MS. Not only was Andrea gracious as I absolutely butcher her last name, but she shares all about moving to the US and finding opportunities in Mississippi. I really like the part when she starts talking about how she creates her amazing cityscapes.
You can see Andrea's work in person along with the Women's Art Collective on view at the Meridian Museum of Art until November 27th
Find Andrea at andreakostyal.com and on Instagram @art_of_andrea_kostyal
