Get to know the hands, head, and heart behind award-winning fine artist and oil painter Anna Rose Bain, whose breathtaking figurative works and luminous portraiture capture peaceful moments of human connection. A Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America, Anna's work has been featured in Fine Art Connoisseur and American Art Collector and exhibited in some of the most esteemed galleries and competitions in the country. In this episode, she shares how global experiences, perseverance, and teaching workshops have shaped her artistic journey—from studying under the North Light in Florence, Italy, to painting elephants in the African wilderness. She reveals how leading workshops has not only refined her skills but also deepened her understanding of art. Motherhood, too, has played a profound role in her growth. The challenges of balancing art and family life sharpened her business, strengthened her faith, and ultimately made her a better artist—especially through painting her son.

Après avoir travaillé en tant que chef de projet de recherche en biologie moléculaire pendant 10 ans, Maud est devenue créatrice de patrons de couture et a fondé Anna Rose Patterns. Elle est suivie par plus de 43 000 abonnés.C'est en cours de SVT en 5ème que Maud a le déclic : elle veut devenir chercheuse. Après un doctorat, elle devient chercheuse en biologie moléculaire à Genève. Elle travaille sur des molécules et des souris pour avancer la recherche sur le cancer. Mais l'environnement, les horaires à rallonge, l'impossibilité d'avoir une vie perso la rattrapent à sa première grossesse. C'est simple, on demande aux chercheurs de faire une croix sur leur vie perso et de se consacrer entièrement à la recherche.A son retour de congé maternité, Maud est placardisée et décide de tirer un trait sur la recherche.Aujourd'hui, Maud est créatrice de patrons de couture sous la marque Anna Rose Patterns depuis 2017. Elle donne également des cours de couture et de broderie. Avec Maud, on a évoqué l'environnement très masculin de la recherche, son manque de patience face à la longueur de certains travaux de recherches et les échecs, la compétition avec les autres chercheurs, sa passion pour la couture, comment elle s'est formée en autodidacte au modélisme, le processus de créations des patrons de couture et comment gagner sa vie dans un secteur très concurrentiel.

Don't forget, this is the last episode of ZK Podcast before we take a pause in weekly shows for the rest of 2024 - but don't worry we will be back!

Summary In this week's episode Anna chats with Shumo and Yi from NEBRA. They discuss the high price of putting ZKPs on-chain before diving into NEBRA's proposed solution to mitigating this, their Universal Proof Aggregation product. They cover what it takes to incorporate extra pricing systems into NEBRA UPA as well as the benefits that these systems will bring, how developers are meant to interact with them, and future integrations to enable seamless cross-zkRollup applications. The group round off by discussing prover marketplaces, verification aggregation systems, and the design space that this all opens up.
