I had fun sitting down with Maxine Farkas, the manager at Western Avenue Studios in Lowell, MA where I have my studio. I found out how she got started in her textile and mixed media arts and we talked about the significance for artists of having a studio space.

This episode is truly inspiring. The energy between the two of you shows what happens when two artists have a great conversation about making and selling.
