In this interview, I get to introduce you to my new friend Jacob Bartanus, a fellow resident of the upper peninsula of Michigan.

Jacob reached out to me with a comment about the show. I checked out his work and was blown away by its dynamic energy and many layers, both literal and figurative.

Jacob's got a story that is fascinating and inspiring, and I can't wait to share his upbeat, curious outlook with you. He's a very bright light.

Jacob is currently showing his work at coffee shop and art gallery Palette Coffee & Art in Grand Rapids, MI, as a participant in this year's ArtPrize show. ArtPrize is hosted once a year in the town, with local businesses sponsoring artists. The work is judged by a panel and by the public. The show runs from Mid September to Mid October.

You can find the video of the complete interview on the show notes page along with images of Jacob’s work at passionatepainterpodcast.com/episode81.

This interview ran long, so I've broken it into two parts for listening convenience. Part two is available now at passionatepainterpodcast.com/episode82.
