Let The Good Talk Roll

This podcast, as a collection of interviews, brings to light the original — and sometimes unorthodox — professional trajectories of selected artists and entrepreneurs. Based out of New Orleans, and hosted by Natalie Steuer, Let The Good Talk Roll will feature individuals whose lives and careers reflect an undeniable appreciation for beauty and business. However, beyond aesthetics and success, my appreciation is largely for the fortitude and follow-through which led them each to where they are today.

Let The Good Talk Roll

Annie Moran

October 18, 2022 • Natalie Steuer • Episode 19

Annie Moran is a New Orleans local artist who has a deep love for Louisiana, its landscape, its creatures, and its culture…but you wouldn’t have to listen to this episode to know that, as her paintings evoke such vivid romanticism. What you will learn from today’s episode is how Annie became a successful working artist and that she is as delightful and gentle as her pastel imaginations.

While Annie credits her rural river-bank upbringing, as well as her like-minded, art-inclinded father, for her origination and later success as an artist, she spent her early career exploring work in New York, employed in both fashion and jewelry.

Her path to becoming a full-time painter was not linear -- though the jury is still out on whether or not it was destined -- and taking the leap -- trusting in her artistic talent took a lot of gut and a lot of realism.

But of course the world is better and more beautiful since she did. And while hand-painted murals are the most precious to Annie herself, she currently offers her art in many forms. I know, you want to know more….

Me too, so let's give a warm warm welcome to Ms. Annie Moran!
