I listened to the latest podcast with Sarah Intermann and LOVED it! I felt like I was totally eavesdropping on two artists having a real down to earth conversation. Her impulsive process and shifting mediums was a breath of fresh air. I have to shift things around almost everyday these days to keep myself present. I'm not sure who the artist was that you spoke to that had a separate room for each artistic expression? I'd love that. A reading room, a knitting room, a painting studio, a ceramic studio, a sewing room etc. etc...and of course my nice kitchen to bake in !!!!

My life is chaotic - surprise! And I always try to get to the podcasts and updated on all things 'Savvy'. You continue to be one of my polestars when I am adrift and even though I'm physically IN my studio, I'm just not quite able to 'GET to it' due to other life commitments (teenagers that are on the precipice of leaping) but need help...or maybe a shove !! ha ha :-). I send you peace and love and one day - I swear it - I'm going to write a check and send it your way. I'm just not quite there yet, but will make more of an effort to share your podcast link on a regular basis. Thank you for your thoroughness and follow through and for continuing to create stable, informative, fun, intelligent yet absorbable presentations and interviews. Thank you for staying with it even when you didn't have your computer!!! Wow!

I stumbled on these, not sure how, but I'm so glad I did. So much information and ideas. By listening to all these other artists I've found that the struggles I'm going through are just part of the process. What a huge help and relief. Techniques, marketing, finding your own voice, the list goes on, listen in, you won't be sorry!

My daughter, who is helping me set up a website for my new business, introduced me to your podcasts. We love them!! We are getting great ideas for our art businesses from your well thought out questions in the interviews you conduct. Thank you so much for creating this podcast!!!

Thank you Antrese for your excellent interview with Charlie Hunter. It was very informative and fun to hear about how he became a painter. I like your style of interviewing and think it's a great podcast.

I have listened to each podcast twice. I always look forward to hearing artists talk about everything from their process, to their funding, to light, color materials...everything.

I recently discovered this podcast...WOW, so inspiring and fun to listen to! I really appreciated that variety of topics discussed, and it's all done in an approachable, fun-spirited way. I'll definitely keep listening!! Thanks so much!

I've been listening to Antrese Wood's Savvy Painter Podcast during my commutes and I love them! She is an excellent interviewer who seems to know exactly what I would ask and she follows through on all the intriguing details that come up. I love the people she is finding to interview and have learned so much from each podcast- both on the business side of being an artist, and also on the process and mental sides. How validating to find out that my struggles are so similar to those of artists I really admire and respect!

The podcast is a wonderful resource for artists (and wanna be artists) to learn more about other people's process, lives and techniques. Antrese is an adept, natural interviewer and the conversation she has with the guest artists are always insightful and informative. Thank you for this, a great idea you've wonderfully brought to life!

What a great show! It’s such a needed topic to help artists effectively make money with their art. Very cool!

Love this podcast! Highly recommend it!

Great podcast with artist interviews and insights. I've enjoyed every episode and look forward to the next.

The Savvy Painter Podcast is a great source of information and inspiration. Use it to expand your knowledge bank of contemporary artists (backstories/techniques), well-known art manufacturers such as Gamblin, Artist Colors, Gamblin Artists Colors, Rosemary & Co. Artists Brushes, etc. about their products, and marketing solutions

I feel SO good and inspired after listening to the interviews on the savvypainter.com. I am a painter and often feel really alone navigating the many challenges of being a full-time artist and running my own business. Most people can't relate and or don't take me seriously. It is so wonderful listening to a podcast by a painter for painters. I feel so connected listening to the interviewer with contemporary artists, who open up and describe their struggles and challenges, as well as, where they have found success. The business of art is discussed, as is education, tips, and techniques, ups and downs, the meaning of art, why we create, inspiration...Everything. Wherever you are at in your career, there is something of value and interest to be heard on the Savvy Painter. To my fellow painters, I can't recommend this enough. To everyone else, the show is a glimpse into the lives of artists and is very worthy of your time.

I have listened to each podcast twice, I always loo forward to hearing artists talk about everything from their process, to their funding, to light, color, materials....everything.

This is by far the most helpful, creative, and thought provoking podcast I’ve ever come across. Every episode gives me new ways to look at my art practice, and life in general. Antrese shares in a way that feels entirely genuine and personal. The topics feel fresh, and even when treading familiar paths, she always brings a new twist or insight. My only challenge when listening to her podcast is that I have a hard time paying attention. Often she will say something that causes my mind to get all excited and to race off in response. Thank goodness for “rewind”! And thank you Antrese for your generosity in creating and sharing this podcast.

Thanks for this wonderful podcast! I loved hearing from Nathan Fawkes. I am really looking forward to listening to more since this is my first time hearing your podcasts. Keep up the good work!

Antrese is an extraordinary person and an amazing interviewer. She is actually present throughout the entire interview, not just reading questions and waiting for an opening in the conversation so that she can say something. She is very engaged and engaging and her own paintings are beautiful. She asks the questions that I, as an artist would ask the interviewee myself but in a truly curious and very conversational way. She shares some of herself but not too much, it is like listening to a conversation between two extremely interesting and close friends. I recommend this podcast often to friends and fellow artists. Go Antrese!

Savvy Painter in an amazing concept, how to make a business out of your art. I'm wondering this myself so I will definitely be checking out more. The John Hull episode's pretty beautiful and heartfelt. Thanks Antrese, keep it up!

I have regularly listened to over 10 different art/artist-related podcasts over the last year or so during my long commute from home to school, and this is definitely one of my favorites! Antrese Wood provides casual yet structured conversations with artists, art manufacturers, gallery owners, etc. to get to the root of what they do and what they have been through. Try out a few episodes and let us know what you think! 🙂

I recently discovered this podcast...WOW, so inspiring and fun to listen to! I really appreciate the variety of topics discussed, and it's all done in and approachable, fun-spirited way. I'll definitely keep listening!! Thanks so much!

So many of use who make/do art...do it alone. This is a great chance to hear from others about their failures and successes that have allowed them to grow and prosper. Some of the interviews answer important questions that I didn't even know I wanted to ask. Thank you for the variety of people you interview. And thank you for the follow-up info regarding the artists mentioned. I am a better artist because of this podcast.

What a treasure trove! I've been recommending this to all of my friends in the arts, especially those of us who paint. Not only do I love your name, "Antrese," I deeply respect your "back story" and vision. There is much to learn and like here, not the least of which is the importance of determination, perseverance, and courage. Congratulations!

Very NPR feel; and that's a great thing!

Interviewing and making it interesting is difficult. And that to a visual topic on an audio only medium and it's at expert level. Host Antrese Wood handles this so deftly that you can't even see the brush strokes. Even when a guest misinterprets a question and answers in a fractal way, she encourages and nourishes this surprise branch and delves deeper. Her website has the gallery and bibliography for every episode (which is oh so helpful to not only see the art being discussed but to learn about any other artists being referenced). Put a red dot on this podcast, I'm sold.

So excited I found this show! As a creative, I've always wanted to monetize my creations - fabulous tips, strategies and inspiration

Antrese shares valuable and relatable content any artist would enjoy…a wonderful resource!

A really valuable podcast for anybody who wants to be a full-time artist.

Thank you Antrese and crew for bringing all this talent and inspiration into this format. Very entertaining conversations, artist's live stories and profile...

Thank you so much for doing these Antrese!! It has been so inspiring and encouraging as a few painter to 'listen in' on your thought provoking and enlightening conversations.

The breadth of interviews is outstanding. I have learned so much from everyone, from the art aspect (like Camille’s) to the business aspect (such as Cory Huff’s). Thank you so much Antrese for spearheading this effort!
