Finding community with Kayla St-Pierre

Art Buds is a podcast for artists in Ontario. In this episode, we talk to Kayla St-Pierre, an oil painter and recent University of Guelph graduate who makes “found abstract” paintings. Her current show, Finding Community, with Elizabeth Broere Jackson, is on until May 30 at the Art Gallery of Bancroft. We talk with Kayla about her recent residency, how her background in film informs her painting practice, maintaining a regular art practice while holding down a full-time job, and what inspires her colour palette.

Balancing full time work and art making

Art Buds is a podcast for artists in Ontario. In episode 2, we discuss how we came to our art practice, the challenges of being an artist while working full time, and the inspiration behind our current bodies of work. Note: We actually recorded episode 2 before episode 1, which is why you’ll hear us get so dang excited as we wrap up. We made a podcast!
