In this episode I interview Gretchen Leggitt. Gretchen is a Muralist who graduated with a BFA from Colorado State University (That’s where we met), is currently living and working out of Bellingham, WA, where she has put up the largest mural in the state of Washington. In this episode we talk about the development of one’s unique personal style, the artistic wonder of Tuscany, current art happenings in the world, and so much more.

You can connect with Gretchen on her website at gretchenleggitt.com, and on Instagram @g2legit, and also be sure to check out her latest venture: Paper Whale at paper-whale.com.

-The Art and Life podcast is an artistic exploration in itself. It is an experiment in an audio format that focuses on the art and philosophy involved with different people and their life paths. This podcast is intended to inspire listeners in their creative pursuits.

-Taylor Gallegos is an artist, originally from Colorado, currently based in California. Taylor has been making art for his whole life, he received a BFA from Colorado State University with a Study Abroad semester in Italy, and has been making and selling artwork since he graduated. For the past 5 years, he has been working mostly in the world of large scale murals and live painting for events. In the beginning of 2020, he took his artistic process into the world of podcasting and plans on continuing to do so into the future.
