From Corporate to Creator: Natasha Patel's Bold Art Evolution
After doing time as an employee, Natasha realized no path to success lay there: the only option is to take the reins in your own hands and chart a novel course. She produced flow art for a while that was a pleasing initial step into creative endeavours, and she experienced marketability, but felt undifferentiated from the hordes of other artists doing the same thing. Inspiration would be found on a trip to the motherland, India - Natasha is a first generation American - and her focus has honed. New works feature rich colours and architectural influences of India's timeless legacy. Her time in the corporate world wasn't for naught though, as she brings a keen awareness for customer funnel, networking, and long term strategy alongside the actual production of artpieces.Natashahttps://www.napagogoart.cominsta: napa.gogo.art https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

From Muse to Master: An Angel Purging the Dæmons - Katya
Katya began practicing art later in life, first modeling for figure drawing sessions and then attending as well. Eventually pursuing a full studio practice, she elevated to a level of fantastically expressive work in a very short time. Much of her work focuses on figures and bodies that are highly distorted and exaggerated, often portraying dark, anxious, and uncomfortable themes such as isolation, anxiety, and the sense of performance in daily life. In a Jungian way, by not hiding from the darkness she is able to move with light.Katya:https://www.chasethesunlight.comInsta: chasethesunlightFortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

In our last four episodes we interviewed various artists from our F.eminine U.ndertones show; now meet its gallerist & curator (who is herself hanging in the show as well). Making artwork is only one part of the game - exhibition is another, as is managing the rest of life along the way.F.eminine U.ndertones is on display at Location 1980 through the closing reception June 26th.Stephaniehttps://daydreamtesserae.com/https://www.instagram.com/sneeinkhttps://www.location1980gallery.com https://www.instagram.com/location1980Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comhttps://www.instagram.com/fortuneartistRingman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comhttps://www.instagram.com/erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Scholar to Creator: The Art of Making Artists with Amy Kells
Amy Kells is one of 1980's longest running artists and an unfiltered, wide-open-throttle creative to her core. Believing that all people possess an artistic drive from birth, she never saw herself going that direction as a child. But a combination of skill, fortunate intervention, and having tested alternative waters eventually led her to pivot halfway through school from academia to a fine arts degree. Whether it's her own practice, nurturing the education of the next generation of art students, coordinating artists for live painting events, showcasing her skills to stoke the crowd, or leading art workshops, Amy lives her philosophy: "I don't make art so much as I make artists."https://www.amykells.cominsta: amykells https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Decades of Innovation with Friends and Pioneers
Nancy Anderson and Ruth Geller have been longtime friends of the studio, and have the types of art careers we love to feature: they have both practiced art consistently for decades, evolving through styles and media as mastery of one led to the search for new challenges. Having participated in exhibitions, won awards, and moved around the country, neither seeks the art "scene" so talked about by laymen and portrayed endlessly in Hollywood. You may be standing next to a great artist in the grocery store, and not even know it.Nancy Anderson: https://www.nancyandersonart.com insta: ntandersonartRuth Geller:insta: ruthgeller77https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Art on the Edge: Tales from Punk Rock Renaissance Woman Jackie Danger
Having lived all throughout the USA's west coast and a span in Oz, she has traversed the highs of sold out exhibitions and the lows of residing in garages clandestinely. The art world is one that will by turns exalt you and kick you in the chin, and few embody the will to take a lickin' and keep on tickin' with the same humor and aplomb as Jackie Danger.https://www.jackiedanger.cominsta: jackie.danger.arthttps://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Secrets from the Fantasy Fun Farm of Tracey Moloney
Hailing from New York, cutting her teeth in San Francisco, and making SoCal her home, Tracey’s art practice includes large scale murals, traditional fine art painting, and gallery operation. After schooling in graphic design, she decided to go into art production for herself and never stepped foot in an ad agency. She continues to this day, with an approach to life that focuses on simple substance rather than the complex superficiality that is so commonly found in the world. If you want to work with her, don’t send a text – get on the horn and have a conversation! http://www.myartandsoul.net/ https://www.location1980gallery.com Insta: location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comInsta: fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over four years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steelhttps://www.eriktclayton.comInsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Hippie Heart and Business Mind: Corey Clark
Corey swooped in, hosted a solo show less than a year later, then moved out of 1980 for the beautiful vastness of Joshua Tree, where he exchanged his paints for glass. A successful solo operator, he consistently drives himself to up his game by working with other artists and taking classes from innovators in the cutting edge world of glass.

Extreme Adventures with a Maverick Artist
Today the guys chat with an old friend of Location 1980, Bert Esenherz. He was doing out-of-the-box feats that cannot be classified as performance art, comedy, or improv alone, decades before broadband and social media made this kind of thing commonplace. Many of his events are truly art for art's sake, and evidence mastery of the art of living: that is to say, demonstrating (and testing) just how far this thing called life can be taken. This is all, of course, in addition to his skills as a painter, set builder, producer, and videographer. Bert tells his stories so casually, it's almost easy to miss how extraordinary they are! One of the pod's wildest guests so far.Only a sliver of his exploits are covered in this episode, check out his website for more.Bert Esenherzhttps://esenherz.com/Saatchi: https://www.saatchiart.com/esenherzhttps://www.instagram.com/esenherz https://www.location1980gallery.comhttps://www.instagram.com/location1980 Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://www.jessefortune.comhttps://www.instagram.com/fortuneartist Ringman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over three years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steel.https://www.eriktclayton.comhttps://www.instagram.com/eriktclayton Hosted on Acast.

Mastering the Muse
Victori Violet traverses many worlds with a sly grin, doing expressive performance on a professional level along the way. From Austin, Texas to the Southland she literally learned to dance by playing with fire, has strong ties in the clown community, interprets words & music for deaf people, and has elevated art modeling to an educational profession. The guys chat with Victori, longtime 1980 friend and participant in Lauren Kilb's LENS Burning Man artpiece (see episode 2), about the journey, training everyday people to model like pros, and making a living out of your passionVictori Violet: https://www.instagram.com/victoriviolet/Her company Expressive Entertainers: https://www.instagram.com/expressive.entertainers/Location 1980: www.location1980gallery.comwww.instagram.com/location1980Jesse Fortune: www.jessefortune.comwww.instagram.com/fortuneartistErik Ringman: www.eriktclayton.comwww.instagram.com/erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Holographic Horizons
In this episode the guys chat with Jim Trolinger whose résumé read longer than a CVS receipt. He has made artwork since childhood, and pursued a degree in engineering physics, ascending to doctorate level at a prime time to be amongst the nascent holographers of the world. He eventually founded his own holography company, Metrolaser, and along the way has never stopped making art. He calls it a way of staying calm and sharp. With Location 1980 since the start, Jim has spearheaded many plein air painting adventures to unique desert locations, created some inventive multimedia figure drawing workshops, and helped us publish detailed books chronicling these endeavours and the work that goes into themJim's Website: http://www.worldsworsttourist.com/Location 1980: www.location1980gallery.comwww.instagram.com/location1980Jesse Fortune: www.jessefortune.comwww.instagram.com/fortuneartistErik Ringman: www.eriktclayton.comwww.instagram.com/erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Interactive, Reflective, and BIG Art with Lauren Kilb
In this episode the guys sit down with Lauren Kilb, longtime Location 1980 artist whose specialty is interactive art: pieces that once built, are only truly complete when the audience participates in what the piece has set up. In this way, the piece is not a static thing but a context for a conversation to take place between participants and artist, or participants and each other. Those who engage with the piece are elevated from mere spectators and become creators themselves. They have involvement and essentially choice rather than detached viewership. The piece gains an infinity, because the experience of it is as endlessly varietal as the people who engage with it, and simultaneously a deep personality as each person's involvement make their experience inimitably their own.www.location1980gallery.com@location1980Lauren Kilb has traveled the world and created large-scale, interactive art pieces including at the black rock playa for Burning Man. She and her husband were artists in residence at 1980 for five years.insta thelensyourperspectiveFortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.https://jessefortune.com/insta: fortuneartistRingman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over three years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steel.www.eriktclayton.cominsta: erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.

Brief History of OC's Best Kept Secret
Hosts Jesse Fortune and Erik Ringman introduce the world to Location 1980, an art collective with a decade plus history hidden in the center of Orange County, California. "The last four letters of artwork, aren't play," says Fortune, weaving together a rigorous, get-it-done discipline and a flowing, felt creativity. They illuminate a thin slice of the enormous history here, where countless events have been thrown, hundreds of artists from around the globe have ushered through, and one of the Southland's longest continuous figure drawing workshops is still hosted.www.location1980gallery.comwww.instagram.com/location1980Fortune co-founded Location 1980 over thirteen years ago and practices his own form of impressionism, with a special passion for plein air painting.www.jessefortune.comwww.instagram.com/fortuneartistRingman has been an artist at Location 1980 for over three years and enjoys communicating through humor in art, with his primary media being neon and steel.www.eriktclayton.comwww.instagram.com/erik.t.clayton Hosted on Acast.
