I am happy to have my inspiring friend Cara Brown, who is an award-winning watercolor artist, teacher,  writer, and podcast host, back as my guest for Live Your Music. Join us for a conversation about being open to what’s next, her new studio, and how creativity and curiosity can all add JOY to your life.

After two decades in the corporate world as an Information Architect, Cara started selling her watercolors for the first time at Marin Open Studios in May of 2007.  The response and success at that event inspired her to seek out other venues to show her work and a new career as a working artist was started.

In 2011 she began leading weekly watercolor groups.  She discovered that teaching and creating supportive environments for artists to learn and grow came naturally to her.  There are now between 20 and 30 artists who come to paint on a regular basis – a real community has formed.  They have named themselves the 537 Magnolia Artists, after the address of the space where they have painted (Niz Brown’s real estate office in Larkspur) until shifting to ZOOM in March of 2020.

The past year has been a quiet, intimate time for Cara.  She has been sensing the call to pay attention to the ways in which the pandemic and the other ways in which the world is unsettled is asking for humanity to find a new path forward.  Cara is a long-time student of the evolution of consciousness and how the artist’s consciousness shows up in the work they make. She has been exploring a new way to write, is tip-toeing into writing her first book, and feels still quite “in-process” in this moment.
