Jill Carver: Western Landscape Painter - Epi. 185, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

One of the reasons I do podcasts is not only to understand the
guests I have on,  or the art world for that matter but also
to gain insight into my own creativity and who I am. Jill Carver
really brought that home for me today because she was willing to
share her incredibly personal  journey leading up to her
2022 exhibition "The Wild Southwest, Forces and Form"

She had to go through some major uncertainty, and quite frankly,
some really scary stuff. She had been diagnosed with breast
cancer during the time she was painting for this show and had to
deal with all the medical implications and mental anguish that
goes with something like that.  Through all of this, she
found a way to cope with the circumstances and managed to produce
what I believe to be her best work to date. 

When you listen to this podcast, you'll be immersed in that
component of going through a traumatic diagnosis. Toward the
middle portion of the podcast, Jill gives valuable insight into
her and many other women's battles and how she came out on
top. 

That's exactly the kind of thing that I hope to provide my
listeners and viewers. An honest look behind the canvas, so to
speak. So enjoy, this is Jill Carver on Art Dealer Diaries
Podcast Episode 185.
