Today
I am excited to share my interview with Amy Lincoln! I met up with
Amy in Queens, NY where she lives/works and I felt like I was
sitting down with a good friend even though I had never met her. I
love that this interview keeps it really real because Amy has a
4mth old baby and a 4-year-old. This is the place where she
creates, paints and has her family and I love that you can hear it
in the interview. We talk about how she came to the work she is
making, working with Urban Outfitters, her murals in two Starbucks
in NYC, her involvement in the arts community and her advice to
artists.

a Swing Space residency from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council.
