Whether you see Charissa’s hand molded clay or watercolor botanicals or textured canvases, you’re going to walk away with a sense of calm and serenity. This interview will leave you feeling that way too. Although she has been an artist her entire life, she chose a different career to avoid the “starving artist” life. She continued to create art in addition to working full time until so much changed for her in 2021. Her first painted pillow attracted so much attention and that became the fuel that grew her art into a business and led her to pursue it as a career instead of a hobby. Charissa’s art is process and practice is a natural overflow of the peacefulness she wants to bring into the world. I know you’re going to feel refreshed and inspired after spending some time with Charissa in this episode! When calm + collected collide, you get Charissa Owens.
