Welcome to the Table: Do I Have to Get a Real Job?
Description
In this week's episode, I catch up with an old friend from London, the incredible artist, Daisy de Villeneuve. She has collaborated with incredible brands like Moët & Chandon, Nike, Topshop, Zac Posen, Missoni, Kate Spade and more. She has written and collaborated on several books which are filled with her cheeky illustrations. We talk about her upbringing by an American mom and a British dad and how they fostered her creative side from a very young age. We talk about the highs and lows of making her living as an artist and how no-one in her family has ever had a "real" job. She is kind and creative and hilarious and I can't wait for you to get to meet her! xx Jo Find Daisy at: http://www.daisydevilleneuve.com [http://www.daisydevilleneuve.com] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/daisy_de_villeneuve/ [https://www.instagram.com/daisy_de_villeneuve/] Eat My Words Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eatmywordsthepodcast/ [https://www.instagram.com/eatmywordsthepodcast/] Eat My Words TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=en [https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=en] Eat My Words Youtube: https://youtu.be/LWHXyEvH6TM [https://youtu.be/LWHXyEvH6TM] Eat My Words Website:https://www.eatmywordsthepodcast.com [https://www.eatmywordsthepodcast.com] Daisy's Bio: Daisy de Villeneuve was born in London in 1975.
