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.

Episode 25
Mary Benson is a contemporary painter out of Charlotte, North Carolina whose unique style blends contemporary impressionism with stained glass-inspired abstract shapes. Mary's work is grounded in her love of natural landscapes which she captures in a romanticised mosaic of bright and pastel color.
In this episode, Mary and I talk taking the leap to become a full time artist, discovering your own distinctive artistic technique, and the promise of social media. We also continue my impromptu new Would You Rather segment -- this time pre-planned!
I chose to reach out to Mary, first, because her work stood out as artwork I coveted. I hope you all enjoy meeting Mary and taking in her beautiful art!
