You are beautiful.

I was out riding my bike the other day. For some reason, I decided to take a different path than I normally do.

On East Washington Avenue I saw three people, one of them was on a ladder. They were just finishing up what looked like a mural that said "You are beautiful" on it.

I stopped and decided to go ask them what it was.

Next month I'm going to be releasing a podcast about things just like this. It's called American Bandito.
The concept was this - I put up an ad on Facebook that said "Are you an artist in Madison? I would like to talk to you." And that was it. There was no pre-screening, people signed up and I scheduled an interview with them.

Holly Meyers

I begin my quest to meet artists in Madison, WI with Holly Meyers.

This episode I ask the question:
"What made you decide to start your own business?"

It's the first episode of the second season. This time I travel around Madison and meet with people that own or operate galleries, stores and other places that sell and promote local art.

If you create things in your spare time, you've probably thought about trying to do it for a living or maybe you're just trying to get the guts to put it out there for the first time.

So what would it take to follow through and actually do it?

To help understand what it's like, listen to what these local creatives say about what they do.

Here's a list of the places I talk to in each episode.
