Aaron Spencer is a landscape and skatescape artist based out of New England.

Her work is greatly influenced by the time she lived in Holland.

As Erin will tell you, she is a self-taught artist. She's never taken a class, not even a

workshop. It's pretty incredible. In this episode Aaron and I talk about

her early start selling her art on Etsy and later at festivals and small shows.

As a self-taught artist there are certain things that will trigger the

imposter syndrome for Aaron. So we explore those triggers and some of the way that artists can

learn to be more comfortable talking about their work.

Aaron also describes how she continues to make time to paint,

even with three small children in the house.
