94: Color Me Intrigued

Tiff Arment and Julia Skott talk about art and making. They won’t teach you how to turn your creativity into a business. Or how to do anything, really. They just want to talk about doing stuff. Hosted by Tiffany Arment and Julia Skott.

I think of myself as a creative person, but I don’t spent a lot of my free time intentionally creating. This podcast makes me feel like a part of a creative community, even when I don’t always have time to create! Great job!

Great listen for an aspiring creative!

As long as they’re talking, I will listen.
