Today we have another episode of the Quit Your Day Job series where I interview members of the Artist Academy Advanced, our private group mentoring membership program geared to helping artists thrive. I’m interviewing Shannon Joy who is from where I am, Springfield, Missouri but is currently on vacation in Hawaii. She carved away some time to chat with me about her dive into full-time art. I’ve met Shannon in person many times this past year both on mural projects and off. I first had her out to help paint a project at a local park, then another for a business, then another, and each time she’s helped more and I’ve done less. Now she’s out on her own in the art world and making a living with a paint brush. Listen as we chat about everything that happened in between that helped her go from working a job she didn’t like to now into a full time creative career. Let me know what you think of this week’s episode with Shannon Joy.
