Distilling The Visual Field with Amy Lincoln

In this episode Amy and I have a fun and lively conversation about painting, color mixing, and the importance of distilling images down to exactly what they need.  We touched on meditative practice and some of the hurdles that arise when beginning that journey.  We also had a really enriching discussion around consumer culture and what it means to be someone who makes art in a time when there is such an abundance of stuff all around us.   --------------- Amy Lincoln lives and works in New York City. She completed her MFA in Painting at Temple University’s Tyler School of Art in 2006 and her BA in Studio Art at University of California, Davis in 2003.
