Eat.Sleep.Create.

(**I apologize for the way MY audio sounds - I experienced major technical difficulties with this recording!**) I am so thankful for the time I got to spend chatting with Brandi about how she injects vulnerability into her art, how important the process of creating is to her and our mutual love of Brene Brown. Here's a little about Brandi & her art (from her website): "Brandi Downham is a multi-media artist with an emphasis in painting. Using a variety of painting and drawing techniques, Brandi’s art documents memories and processes. The impact of losing a loved one to cancer has deeply influenced her style of work. Her desire for healing and growth has resulted in art that is vulnerable and honest. Captivated by the process of creating artwork, Brandi’s work contains raw, emotive and expressive content. As the daughter of a contractor, her frequent exposure to construction material inspired her use of architectural and structural elements. Brandi holds a BFA from the University of Central Oklahoma and has shown in various museums and galleries." You can check out her work on her website www.brandidownham.com and be sure to follow along on Instagram to see some of her process and behind-the-scenes. www.instagram.com/brandi.downham.art
