Show Notes
I’m chatting with US based artist Denise Gasser. I first discovered Denise via her ‘Art After’ project which is all about reconciling art and motherhood in the most unique and inspiring way. I then progressed to going down a rabbit hole of watching Denise’s IGTV’s and just knew that I HAD to have this inspiring woman on the podcast.
In this conversation Denise and I chat about Instagram and why it’s so important that we take charge of this very powerful marketing medium as artists and make it a place that supports us rather than shuts us down. We dive deep into Denise’s journey of creating artwork for her ‘Art After’ project and how she worked her way through successive rejections from galleries to have her work exhibited, to finally mount her own hugely successful show.
We talk a lot about how to negotiate being and artist with being a Mum, embracing ordinariness and also negotiating neurodiversity.
This conversation with Denise was so inspiring to have and truly left me feeling like I had connected with a kindred sprit.
Some of the key moments include;
Making Instagram a positive, healthy environment for ourselves.
How she created an exhibition of work embracing the craziness of the season of raising small kids.
How after experiencing rejection after rejection she mustered the determination to host her own exhibition on her terms.
I really hope you enjoy this grounding and uplifting conversation with Denise Gasser. More shownotes and links are available here: www.susannethercotestudio.com/podcast/denise-gasser

Welcome to season 13! I’ve started a new season as I have recently started a new chapter of my life and career as an artist.

So I thought it was about to time to check in and let you know what I’ve been up to and how it’s been going.
Hi friends and welcome to episode 117. It’s been a wild month for me as I’ve had my second solo exhibition, ‘An Ornamental Education’ running here at the art gallery of Ballarat. It’s been an incredible ride having my first exhibition at a public art gallery and I wanted to make sure that I shared it with you before it ends on 14thApril.
