Show notes
Katie Brown grew up in a small town, pursued art in college despite every practical concern, and then spent years taking detours through anxiety and real estate before she found her way back to painting for good. In this conversation, Hayley sits down with the Greenville, South Carolina-based artist to talk about what it actually took to build a thriving creative career. Katie shares how she developed a style that is distinctly hers, how she built a social media presence that opened real doors, and how she landed gallery representation with Well and Wonder, Shane Gallery, and Gregory Irby Gallery. But the more honest part of the conversation is about what happens before all of that. The comparison spiral. The detours. The slow work of staying consistent when nothing feels certain yet. Katie is generous with the hard parts and it makes everything else she's built feel real. If you're in the middle of figuring it out, this one is for you.
