You Can’t Be An Artist Until You Experience Pain with SamGwan
Manage episode 444616290 series 3485107
This in-depth and intimate episode with SamGwan The Artist (Tonya Paris), we explore how art is truly a healing and therapeutic practice. Tonya shares so much wisdom as she takes us through a journey of her early life, from young mom, to military, to an RCMP officer, and all of the heartbreaks, losses and healing along the way.
Now Tonya is a full-time artist who is contracted for major projects locally and globally, and who’s lucrative art pieces are sold across the world. With Indigenous and Indigenous Black heritage, her artwork tells the story of the history and experiences of her people. Her determination and hard work allowed her to make a living out of being an artist, and she is able to provide herself with a comfortable life where she does not deny herself the pleasures this life has to offer (Heyy Taurus sis!).
This emotional, raw and honest episode of trials and triumphs will keep you engaged from the beginning to the end. We can never get enough of Tonya’s stories!
