A Rebellion of Care - The One With David Gate

Épisode 8

mardi 26 mai 2026 • Durée 48:16

In this episode of The Art Confidential, Jacqui and Andreina sit down with poet, writer, and visual artist David Gate for a conversation about creativity, care, and what art can make possible in difficult times. From poetry and mental health to friendship, truth-telling, and the role of artists in community, this one is thoughtful, honest, and deeply grounding.

David shares his path from writing songs to becoming a widely loved poet whose work speaks to loneliness, sensitivity, masculinity, and hope. They talk about how Asheville shaped his life and work, why creativity became a form of self-care, and how art can help people feel less alone by showing them their own experiences reflected back.

We talk about:

How David moved from songwriting into poetry and found his voice
Creativity as care and its connection to mental health
Why telling the truth is an act of rebellion for artists
Male sensitivity, emotional language, and naming what we feel
The role of sharing art and creating connection through your work

Plus: baby goats, late-night writing, Burial Beer, and a poem that might make you cry.

This episode is for artists, writers, parents, and anyone who needs a reminder that sensitivity is not weakness, it is strength.

mardi 12 mai 2026 • Durée 45:04

Pricing your artwork can feel emotional, awkward, and confusing, especially when you are trying to balance confidence, consistency, galleries, collectors, materials, and your own gut feeling.

We talk about:

Using price-per-square-inch formulas without losing the human side
Why consistency builds trust with collectors and galleries
When and how to raise your prices
How to respond when someone asks for a discount
Commissions, deposits, revisions, and knowing when to say no

Building Community Through The Scout Guide - The One With Meagan Harris

Épisode 6

mardi 28 avril 2026 • Durée 38:00

In this episode of The Art Confidential, we sit down with the owner/editor of The Scout Guide (Asheville) to talk about what it really takes to build community from scratch.

After moving to a new city without a built-in network, she took a leap and launched a local edition of The Scout Guide, creating a platform that highlights small businesses and connects the people behind them. What started as a bold move has grown into a thriving community rooted in trust, relationships, and consistency, with lessons that translate directly to artists building their own networks with galleries, collectors, and collaborators.

We talk about:

starting over in a new city and building a network from zero
what The Scout Guide is and how it works
building trust when nobody knows who you are
why relationships matter more than selling
handling rejection and not taking 'no' personally
balancing creative work with contracts, invoicing, and admin

Plus: favorite local spots, quiet time as self-care, and starting coffee at 40.

This episode is for anyone building something from scratch, growing a small business, or trying to create meaningful connections in their community.

Hooray for Hollywood - The One With Jacqui's Origin Story

Épisode 5

mardi 14 avril 2026 • Durée 37:40

In this episode of The Art Confidential, Andreina turns the tables and interviews co-host Jacqui Fehl about the winding path that led her from childhood trips to the Art Institute of Chicago to Hollywood sets, voiceover work, and eventually to becoming a working artist and gallery owner in Asheville’s River Arts District.

Jacqui shares how an early love of drawing, a painful childhood art class experience, and years spent pursuing acting in Los Angeles all shaped the artist she would later become. Her story is not linear - and that’s exactly what makes it so compelling.

We talk about:

Drawing “princesses” inspired by Picasso and Monet as a child
How one painful art class experience pushed her away from art for years
Moving to Los Angeles young, broke, and determined to work in entertainment
Working behind the scenes in Hollywood and on sets like Boy Meets World
How voiceover work became both a career and a creative training ground
Returning to painting later in life and slowly building confidence as an artist
Finding her way into the River Arts District and eventually opening her own gallery

Plus: childhood princess drawings, sitcom stories, bold career leaps, and why waiting for permission can keep you stuck.

If you’ve ever taken the long way around creatively - or wondered whether it’s too late to begin again - this episode is for you.

Épisode 4

mardi 31 mars 2026 • Durée 46:29

In this first guest episode of The Art Confidential, we sit down with Asheville artist, gallery owner, and Emmy-nominated film editor Jaime Byrd.

Unfiltered conversation ahead - occasional strong language included.

With over 35 years as a working creative, Jamie shares her journey from film and music back to painting - and how the pandemic accelerated her return to her original passion. Now, she's redefining what a painting can be by blending traditional oil work with technology to create pieces that literally come to life.

We talk about:

Her unexpected path from film editing to full-time painter
The technology behind her animated paintings (and why it’s not AI)
How travel fuels creativity and perspective
The reality of running a gallery in the River Arts District
Why belief - not talent - is often what separates successful artists
Letting go of perfection and knowing when to stop

Plus: rapid-fire questions, studio habits, and why "mud happens" might be the next great artist merch.

If you've ever questioned your creative path, struggled with pricing your work, or wondered how artists actually make it - this episode is for you.

From Engineering to Artist: Andreina’s Creative Journey - The One With Andreina's Origin Story

Épisode 3

lundi 16 mars 2026 • Durée 33:52

In this episode of The Art Confidential, Jacqui flips the script and interviews co-host Andreina Bates about her journey from Venezuela to the American art world.

Andreina shares what it was like growing up in a family of strong women, studying engineering in college after moving to the United States at just 17, and discovering her creative voice much later in life—after becoming a mother of twins.

What started as a curiosity about watercolor eventually turned into a full artistic career, gallery representation, and a studio in Asheville’s River Arts District. Along the way, Andreina talks about learning to trust her instincts, navigating difficult gallery experiences, balancing art with another career, and embracing the parts of herself she once tried to hide.

This conversation explores the messy, honest path many artists take before they ever call themselves “an artist.”

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start creating—or how artists actually build a career—this episode is for you.
