Episode 60 - Layla Fanucci, Charter Oak Winery

For 25 years, Layla Fanucci, taught music at St. Helena Catholic School in California. But her life turned around when she bought paint and an art board at a Ben Franklin arts and crafts store. Today, Layla, who never took an art class, has had her cityscapes shown at galleries and museums in Paris, Morocco, San Francisco, and New York City. “It all happened by accident,” she said in a May, 2009 interview on Conversations with Allan Wolper. “I wanted a piece of art that was big and bold, had a lot of color and made a kind of strong statement. I went to Ben Franklin, got an art board, threw paint on it, had it framed, put it on the wall and that was my first painting.” She called her six foot high, five foot wide work “Explosion,” and sold it to a local Episcopalian priest for $800. He got quite a bargain. Her huge, sprawling art canvases now go for up to $150,000. Of note, Layla and her husband, Robert, make award winning wines under the Charter Oak label.

This has been one of my favorite interviews, enjoy!     Radically Purposeful Layla    Nurturing her artistry and dedicating herself to painting 200 paintings in 2 years Figuring out how to make art a business by focusing on each 50/50 Setting a goal to make as much as she did teaching or go back to her job    Radically Inspired Clarity    You have to focus on the one thing you love to make it happen. It takes devotion in order to succeed in your passion. You don’t have just one talent. In 10 years you might find another and nurture that. Later, you might find another. Nurture what you love and it will grow. Be very clear about what you really love to do. Being clear on that is the biggest step because then you can take steps to make it happen.    Layla’s Keys for Success   1) Find your passion 2) Have a plan 3) Work really hard 4) Focus on your goals 5) Give back    Layla Fanucci Answers…    How can you be an artist and be good at business? What if I don’t have anything I love to do? What’s the best advice you can give about following a passion?    Radically Loved Quotes   “When you follow your passion and you work really hard, the money follows.”   “Really dedicate your time to what you love to do. Your passion is nurtured and then you can climb up that ladder.”   “If you don’t believe in it, it’s probably not going to go far.”   “You can do anything, but no one’s going to give it to you. You’ve got to make it happen.”   A Little More About Our Guest    Driven by a desire to evoke her experience of the city, she achieves remarkable harmony in these resonant works. A musician before becoming a painter, she captures the rhythm of the great metropolis, the lyrical splendor of its skies and the cacophony of its streets. Looking at the scenes, one understands why people return time after time to theses places, like musical phrases we never tire of hearing, always finding something new in them. In Fanucci's dream like paintings, the relationships of building, massed like blocks, transmit the grandeur and intensity of the urban environment, framing the crowds that swarm below them. Dense, deeply felt, intriguing and masterfully painted, her cityscapes draw us in because of the passion in which they were created. www.laylafanucci.com/This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5250338/advertisement
