Stacy Pants is a multi-disciplinary artist who you can find live-painting and building creative installations at festivals around the Midwest US and beyond. In this episode we explore Stacy's journey to becoming a professional artist and talk about all the ways in which being an artist is a way of life more than a way to make money. Tune in and enliven your inner child with the wonderful & whimsical personality that Stacy brings to the show!


In the Plus+ Extension, we explore the notion of creativity as a spiritual pathway, Stacy gives advice for aspiring artists, we question the necessity of art school, and we take a fun detour into talking about our shared love for comic books.
