David Michaels: Landscape Painter & TV Director/Producer - Epi. 131, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

I had David Michaels on today. He is one of the more unique
guests I've had quite frankly, an artist with a background
probably like no other. David Michaels has produced and directed
some of the largest sporting events for television. Think the
Olympics, the Tour de France - he has like 14 Emmys so he's
extremely gifted in that field and he's done documentaries as
well. However, when you hear David's account of the path he took
in life, you'll know as well as I did that this individual was
always supposed to be an artist. He just took a different track
and that happens to a lot of us in life, right? We think we're a
doctor and then all of the sudden we're an art dealer. David lets
us into his life and explains how this whole new world opened up
for him and when it did and that it was an epiphany. It was an
epiphany for him to do the Olympics in 1976 and it was an
epiphany to start creating when his wife bought him watercolors
to start painting for his 50th birthday. Anyone who's out there
who thinks "I don't have what it takes" or "I want to do it but I
can't, I  just don't have the confidence" listen to this
podcast and you'll get the confidence to go out there and get
your brushes, get your paints and start painting. If you really
have that drive you know what? You're going to succeed. Very fun
podcast with a unique and interesting guy, David Michaels.
