Listener of the Week!

Melissa Findley - I never seriously considered being an artist. I think, somewhere in the back of my head, I'd totally bought into that whole "starving artist" idea--and I'm not overly fond of starving.

Art, however, is something I've just always been able to do, from the time I was old enough to pick up a crayon. Drawing, to me, is like breathing. I don't really have to think about it, and it's necessary to life.

I'd been doing freelance art and graphic design for a long time, without even realizing it. Mixed in with everything else I was doing, it just didn't seem like that big a deal. Then, in 2003, my roommate bought me a Wacom tablet, and the rest, as they say, is history.

That is great!

That is great!
