Photographer Alison Turner and mixed media artist Amanda Sandlin share about their creative practices on the road. This week, we're sharing an early episode of our sister podcast, "She Explores." Find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.
Alison Turner has lived in and out of a van for the past 8 years, and traveled in a teardrop trailer and tent before that. She picked up photography 10 years ago and has been pursuing it since. We learn that there are many reasons Alison loves to escape in her van with her rescue dog Max. Since recording, she now has two adventure dogs.
Amanda was relatively new to her life in her built-out minivan. She'd been on the road three months and was learning how to maintain her creative practice on the move. She found that it wasn't easy, but she enjoyed pushing herself and meeting new people. Amanda still works as an artist and is located near Denver, CO.
