Building a Dream Studio With Determination And Sweat Equity.

Artist Dean Fisher shares the story behind his art studio

Artist Dean Fisher talks about his studio on the Savvy Painter podcast.

After artists Dean Fisher and his wife Jo moved to the U.S. from Europe, they looked for ways to keep their overhead as low as possible so that they could both continue painting without a lot of stress. They started in California, then spent a few years in Tennessee before moving to Connecticut. How they got there is a fascinating story of determination, a bit of luck, and a lot of sweat equity.

You might remember I interviewed Dean a while back. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to Dean talk about his art, listen to this episode!
