On this episode, I’m talking with artist Ashley Mishler.
I met Ashley a few years ago at a show I was playing with her now husband Silas Mishler who you met on episode 2.
Ashley is multi-faceted creative and we discuss her journey with music, art and writing and how playing drums let’s us express the loud, brash sides of ourselves that women are generally discouraged from showing.
Along with painting, Ashley makes wearable art by customizing and upcycling clothes and accessories. That sparks a conversation around how it’s common these days for artists only feel valuable when they’re monetizing the things they make versus just letting art exist for the sake of art.
