Moments I Treasure/ Ella Richards

Working Artists! You are not alone!! Ella Richards https://www.scissorsdrawings.com/ came to New York City as a child and a political refugee. In this conversation, Ella reveals how the kindness of strangers shaped her inner world and helped her find her way growing up in the busiest city in the world. Ella discovered that slowing down helped her to enjoy her life and to focus the imagery in her work towards minimalism, and to depict moments from her diary as moments that she treasures.Visual artists Douglas Sigwarth https://www.sigwarthglass.com/ and Will Armstrong http://www.willarmstrongart.com/, co-host and talk about topics affecting working artists.
