16. From Corporate to Creator: Natasha Patel's Bold Art Evolution
01:09:19||Season 3, Ep. 16After doing time as an employee, Natasha realized no path to success lay there: the only option is to take the reins in your own hands and chart a novel course. She produced flow art for a while that was a pleasing initial step into creative endeavours, and she experienced marketability, but felt undifferentiated from the hordes of other artists doing the same thing. Inspiration would be found on a trip to the motherland, India - Natasha is a first generation American - and her focus has honed. New works feature rich colours and architectural influences of India's timeless legacy. Her time in the corporate world wasn't for naught though, as she brings a keen awareness for customer funnel, networking, and long term strategy alongside the actual production of artpieces.Natashahttps://www.napagogoart.cominsta: napa.gogo.art https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton

01:15:06||Season 2, Ep. 13Katya began practicing art later in life, first modeling for figure drawing sessions and then attending as well. Eventually pursuing a full studio practice, she elevated to a level of fantastically expressive work in a very short time. Much of her work focuses on figures and bodies that are highly distorted and exaggerated, often portraying dark, anxious, and uncomfortable themes such as isolation, anxiety, and the sense of performance in daily life. In a Jungian way, by not hiding from the darkness she is able to move with light.Katya:https://www.chasethesunlight.comInsta: chasethesunlightFortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton12.

In our last four episodes we interviewed various artists from our F.eminine U.ndertones show; now meet its gallerist & curator (who is herself hanging in the show as well).

Scholar to Creator: The Art of Making Artists with Amy Kells
01:12:51||Season 2, Ep. 11Amy Kells is one of 1980's longest running artists and an unfiltered, wide-open-throttle creative to her core. Believing that all people possess an artistic drive from birth, she never saw herself going that direction as a child. But a combination of skill, fortunate intervention, and having tested alternative waters eventually led her to pivot halfway through school from academia to a fine arts degree. Whether it's her own practice, nurturing the education of the next generation of art students, coordinating artists for live painting events, showcasing her skills to stoke the crowd, or leading art workshops, Amy lives her philosophy: "I don't make art so much as I make artists."https://www.amykells.cominsta: amykells https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton10. Decades of Innovation with Friends and Pioneers
56:34||Season 2, Ep. 10Nancy Anderson and Ruth Geller have been longtime friends of the studio, and have the types of art careers we love to feature: they have both practiced art consistently for decades, evolving through styles and media as mastery of one led to the search for new challenges. Having participated in exhibitions, won awards, and moved around the country, neither seeks the art "scene" so talked about by laymen and portrayed endlessly in Hollywood. You may be standing next to a great artist in the grocery store, and not even know it.Nancy Anderson: https://www.nancyandersonart.com insta: ntandersonartRuth Geller:insta: ruthgeller77https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton
