The intimacy of a personal journey weaves through this episode, with our special guest host who recounts a moment back in 2006 when a dream compelled them toward the canvas, marking the beginning of a lifelong passion. Their narrative strikes a chord with anyone who has discovered art's calling later in life, illustrating that it's never too late to reimagine your path. I mirror this sentiment, sharing the defining day I chose art over the corporate ladder, a reflection of my own quest for deeper meaning. Together, we celebrate these pivotal decisions—the courage to embrace a new chapter, the embrace of uncertainty, and the triumph of personal narrative in art's expressive tapestry. Embarking on a creative journey requires a leap of faith, something our recent guest, the captivating Eric Breish, knows all too well. As we unravel the threads of Eric's transformative venture into the art world, we share in his brave decision to present metal paintings at the Ferrari Gallery—a medium that challenges and delights in equal measure. It is  a privilege to discuss Eric's daring approach on Just Make Art, where taking risks isn't just encouraged—it's a philosophy.
