355 - The Creative Power of Make Belief and How Your Art Can Make Others Feel Less Alone with Carson Ellis and Mac Barnett
Today on the show we have two of my dream guests ON ONE EPISODE!! Welcome New York Times Best Selling author Mac Barnett and Caldecott Honor Winning author / illustrator Carson Ellis!!
These two were both essential inspirations in my creative journey, and it’s no wonder why. They both exude artistry and playful creative spirit in every single thing they create.
This conversation could have gone on for AGES but I was just grateful for the time I had. Talking shop with these two was mesmerizing and truly a dream come true.
ALSO don’t forget to pick up Caron and Mac’s new picturebook “What is Love?” - it’s as GORGEOUS as it is MOVING!! A classic in the making. It is a must have!
