0:00.0	Hey it's Antries and welcome to another episode of the Savvy Painter
0:07.8	podcast. One of the reasons I love making this podcast for you every other week is because I know what
0:14.6	it's like to feel like you're not quite in the right place.
0:18.0	I mean, people are nice and I love my friends, but I have a different connection with other artists. When artists get
0:24.7	together they light up. Normally shy or introverted people suddenly become animated and
0:30.6	hard to shut up. That's how I know I found my tribe.
0:34.2	You know what I mean, right?
0:35.8	It's kind of like Helen said in an iTunes review.
0:38.7	When I found this, she says, it made a world of difference. Now I feel in touch again with artists. I have my peeps and they're
0:46.3	here. So yes, you most definitely are not alone, even if it feels that way in your studio. And now you can connect directly with me in a group of seriously dedicated artists in Gross
0:57.0	Studio, my ongoing mentorship program.
0:59.9	Gross Studio is a place for artists to hone their skills and discover who they are as an artist in a supportive community.
1:06.0	It's a place where artists can get honest feedback from their peers, trade ideas, and ask the burning questions that pop up when we're trying to get to the next level with our art.
1:16.0	You know, the questions you want to ask but feel silly because you mistakenly believe a real artist would already know these things. If Growth Studio sounds like it
1:24.7	might be for you, head over to savvy painter.com forward slash workshops to learn more.
1:30.5	In the next couple of weeks I'll be opening a few more spots to the Savvy Painter
1:33.9	Growth Studio and there are some special really, really cool early bird bonuses but you can only
1:39.9	get those if you're already on the early bird list. This week on the savvy
1:44.5	painter podcast I am delighted to introduce you to Bill Koker. Bill is a landscape
1:50.8	painter who likes to take it slow and truly discover a place.
1:55.7	He's been painting his family farm for about 10 years.
1:59.2	Well he knows everything from where to be at at what time to get just the perfect angle of light and precisely which birds nest in which trees.
