Interview: The Hands Remember- Painting the Unspoken
In this latest podcast interview, the host, Kellie Stirling, and I discuss art as a language for the body when words run out.
We discuss painting women as a form of self-discovery, why every portrait carries a bit of darkness, and how the studio became a grounding, almost meditative anchor through early motherhood.
We also get into archetypal territory — the "autumn woman," the Maga (sorceress) season of midlife, and what it means to move into the wise-woman, guardian role — plus a fun detour into colour psychology, why green and blue are so relaxing, and my complicated love affair with pink (which you can read about here).
It's a conversation about creativity, embodiment, motherhood and the seasons of a woman's life, guided by Kellie Sterling, the host of the podcast Talking about Midlife.
