I love that interview! It sounds like you talked to Marisa in person. And you asked the right questions. Great job Paul.

Thank you for introducing Marisa. She sounds wonderful. She encouraged me to be more creative in the future. I am German, and she got me, when she said, that Germans still remember living under difficult conditions. My parents have lost everything during war and this overshadow their whole attitude towards spending money (for cloths, for restaurants, hotels, phone calls etc) and for earning money. So for me it was clear that I do not want to be a ’starving’ artist and better get a save job. However, now, 20 years later, I feel ready. Ready to be free and try my creativity.
Thanks to Marisa’s words, I see my background more clear. And the blogging world seem to give good feed-back.

It is a great chance for artist.
Here in Beijing, you find only art for 3000 USD and up in the galleries. I do not know how to find the ’starving’ artists. It would be great to discover some via a blog.

Thanks again for that very inspiring interview!

Paul,
Thank you so much for introducing me to Marisa! She seems like a highly performing and creative person. How inspiring. I want to open an etsy shop and do more podcasting too. Must start!

PS I really agree that blogging is so much more soul-feeding than reading the news. And I am a recovering news addict.
