Heather Moore – finding joy in the print studio
Manage episode 381241489 series 2822871
Heather Moore, a former teacher turned printmaker, shares her journey of rediscovering her passion for art and creativity, and making the decision to leave a stressful career in education.
As a youngster, Heather believed her art would only ever be a hobby, as many young people do, but after having her daughter she started to realize its importance and value in her life.
In this episode Heather discusses the challenges she faced while promoting art in school curriculums, where increasingly it is data-driven approaches that are given priority. She also tells of how she transitioned from teaching to becoming a full-time artist, which included learning how to run a business and make connections with other business owners.
We also get a chance to peek into Heather's creative process as a lino printmaker and learn about the meticulous research and preparation that goes into each of her projects, and the joy she finds in conducting workshops.
