Welcome to the savvy painter podcast, the podcast for artists who mean business. Here's your

host, Antriese Wood.

Hello, it's entries and welcome to another edition of the Savvy Painter Podcast.

A quick plug before we start, Savvy Painter T-shirts are back.

Go to savvy Painter.com forward slash t-shirts, that's all one word, T-s-H-I-R-T-S or you can just go to savvy painter

and click on the link in the sidebar all designs are available in men's and women's

teas.

When you go to the purchase page, you just use the drop down menu

to see what's available.
