Tools: Our Favorites
May 06, 2024 Season 1 Episode 12
Jessica Lomeli and Maryann Garlick

In this episode, Maryann and Jessica share their favorite tools. This, of course, leads them all over the place. They talk about fear of painting, easing back into painting after a break, and the power of play!

The images they discuss can be found at this website:

Image 1: Palette knives - the best and most versatile tool
Image 2: Jessica's safety brush
Image 3: A photo of Jessica's sister-in-law's gallery wall that includes her magenta snowy landscape painting
Image 4: Jessica's collection of oversized brushes

Additionally they talk about an artist, Jane Davies, who creates improvisational drawings, and another artist, Cai Guo-Qiang, who "paints" with gunpowder.

Lastly, you can hear tea mugs in the background on this episode, if you listen carefully. Sometimes Maryann and Jessica drink tea before and during a recording. Usually they drink silently but, alas, not in this episode. You'll also hear a dog noise in the check-in at the end. Real life is noisy!
