Today, I’m talking with Drew Steinbrecher about his creative journey. Drew works in gel printing, collage, and digital mixed media, and he brings a unique perspective to each. We chat about his roots in graphic design, how city life sparks his imagination, and why he believes experimenting is at the heart of making art. Drew also shares what it’s been like to host online art summits, how social media has shaped his path, and gives us a peek into what’s coming up at the Gel Printers Summit.
