This week we are joined by a ceramic and watercolor artist who spends her time between Montgomery and Ocean Springs. Catie Daniel grew up on the coast and discovered early that clay was her thing. Through the tutelage of a teaching artist, Catie was able to stoke her creative flames and provide new opportunities to new generations of young artists.
Listen in as we talk about the importance of teaching artists, getting past your fears, and how life-changing it can be to start recognizing the beauty in the mundane.
