#229 - Interview with artist Joanna Blair

I sat down with the extraordinary Joanna Blair. An internationally exhibited mixed media artist whose figurative paintings celebrate inner strength. Transformation, and the beauty of life's unknowns in between.Joanna shares her deeply personal journey. From painting traditional oil portraits to discovering her true voice. Through mixed media, symbolism, and hidden treasures. Facing breast cancer during the pandemic profoundly shaped her art. Pushing her to create collections like Boldness of Resilience, and When One Door Closes, Another One Opens. All centered on hope, courage, and self-discovery.We dive into how storytelling, technology (yes, even QR codes hidden in her paintings!). And a connection to nature have fueled her creative evolution. Joanna opens up about breaking free from societal expectations. Navigating international art shows without gallery representation. Why embracing "happy accidents" is crucial to authentic expression.This conversation is a powerful reminder: Transformation is not something to fear. It's something to run toward, with your whole heart.Check out Joanna newsletter and website at: 👉 joannablairartist.comFollow her journey on Instagram: 📸 @joannablairartistAnd of course, you can find all the links for L.I.T.G, and where to listen at: 👉 www.linktr.ee/lostinthegroove
