Priyanka Parmanand shifted from seeing art as a hobby to creating both a teaching studio and her own professional art practice. I loved hearing about her background in business and how it does - and does NOT - inform her work. She spoke with such encouragement about resilience. Don’t give up, even when things are hard!

What an encouraging and inspiring conversation! Priyanka pushed through self-doubt and continues to do so in her art practice. I especially resonated with how she fits it all in like so many other parent/teacher/artists by painting at night. This resilience and drive also comes up in the content of her work - she spoke about flowers as a metaphor for growth and hope.

Priyanka is a self-taught artist and the founder of Crimson Canvas Arts, a company that mentors budding artists.
