Me – On Art

Last week I spent a few days in Auburn, Al, catching up with Doc Waller, executive director for the Layman Group. He did an interview with me (as Board Emeritus for the group) about art, the Layman Group, and their collective futures, and you can see the best pieces of it here:

True Stories: Rachel White

“True Stories” is a series of videos examining the thoughts and feelings of artists as it relates to their art. I produced this series for the Layman Group, featuring select members of the board of directors.

I thought Rachel White’s comments were especially on-the-mark. Listen close when she starts talking about “being the right puzzle piece.”

Stranger Things fans will also recognize Rachel as Madeline from Disconnect.

Layman Group Weekend

I’m on the board of directors for a non-profit org called the Layman Group. They are dedicated to expanding the opportunities for and understanding of the arts in Alabama. We had our first board meeting this weekend, and like any group of artists, we had to take pictures.
