She was part of the 13’ Off the Ground collective we traveled to Sicily with to paint murals, and she has seriously caught the mural bug. Our Bar is the Whip, a very cool spot in Vancouver’s trendy south Main area. We’re on the deck, with all the accompanying neighbourhood sounds. In this episode Jenn and I talk about animation from Space Jam to Spirit, and balancing a whole spectrum of creative passions. Hang in to the end and Jenn shares 2 adorable little art jokes.
