For today's episode, we sat down with Thomas Schaller, an architect turned successful watercolor artist and teacher. He discusses his journey to becoming a full-time artist, merging his love between architecture and fine art, and reminds us of the importance of prioritizing personal artistic expression over technical mastery. He shares how teaching has helped him clarify his own artistic voice and the joy he finds in painting as a daily practice. Schaller emphasizes the value of trusting one's inner artistic vision over external advice, and the need to make art a central part of one's life. He also touches on the challenges and rewards of selling artwork, and offers advice for aspiring artists to focus on their intentions and be true to themselves. Finally, Thomas tells us about his books and his upcoming workshops!
