052: San Diego Design Week: Exploring Inspiration & Mindfulness with Carly Ealey

In honor of San Diego Design Week, this week’s episodes are all centered around the theme of inspiration. We’ll explore inspiration through the five senses, plus the sense of mindfulness. We start in this episode with artist Carly Ealey, who shares how mindfulness leads to inspiration in her work. We talk about her journey as an artist, her creative process, and the stories behind the beautiful mural work she’s done for local businesses and organizations.Guest Bio Carly Ealey is a self-taught fine artist, muralist, and photographer based out of San Diego, California. With a natural inclination to painting portraits and figures of women in her work, she is drawn to the seductive and celestial while exploring an introspective view of human existence, spirituality, and the natural world. Carly prefers acrylic ink on wood panels when painting small, and a combination of paint and aerosol when working on large-scale murals. Carly is passionate about the ocean and has participated in and produced mural festivals for Pangeaseed Foundation's Sea Walls in collaboration with Surfrider Foundation and her artist organization, Cohort Collective.Featured in this episodeFeatured candle: Beeswax candle from Mithras CandleFeatured brew: Seven Caves Three Dots and a Dash CocktailFeatured Tarot deck: Moon BB Magick Tarot by Angela Mary MagickConnect with CarlyLinks:WebsiteInstagramAre you an interior designer or are you interested in Holistic Interior Design?
