Our guest is Wendy Robles, a visual artist and designer who explores themes of connection, memory, and an invisible presence through her work. She maintains a dedicated creative practice between fine art and design in Chicago.
In this episode, Wendy speaks with host Christian Solorzano about her journey from fine arts to graphic design, exploring how her family's rich storytelling tradition has shaped her visual language and artistic vision. She shares insights into her creative process—how she navigates different mediums, from oil painting to digital work—and her perspective on publishing her work through her website rather than social media platforms.
She discusses the importance of following intuition in her creative practice, offering candid perspectives on overcoming creative blocks and finding renewal through exploring the intersection of art and science.
The conversation delves into Wendy's personal manifesto, which encompasses principles such as "feel everything," "preserve your peace," and "always return to love." Wendy shares how finding joy through embracing all aspects of herself, including her mischievous side, has influenced her creative explorations.
