    Creative Engagement Artist Painter Scott Holloway

    Creative Engagement Artist Painter Scott Holloway

    My guest is artist, painter Scott Holloway returning for a 2nd interview. I so love Scott's painterly use of language. Discover Scott's art at: https://scottrholloway.com/home.html
    Scott provided an image of his painting for this episode with the following notes:
    "I found that painting of Ray the other day going through some 70’s art work. I realized that he was the first trans person I’d ever met. A beautiful Japanese boy with long hair. He wanted me to pretend that he didn’t have male genitalia, and didn’t want them acknowledged. I didn’t understand. I had never experienced it. This was when I lived in Mendocino. We spent some time together. Later I was told that he had overdosed on drugs. The painting was done by memory.  I mentioned him in a text to a mutual friend from that time. I don’t know what pronoun she would have used I wish she was still here to tell me. Ray is mentioned in “Beaujolais is in My Blood- growing up gay and well fed above a family run French Restaurant”

Insightful and engaging.

Daniel is a great interviewer. He brings curiosity, empathy, and his own creativity to ask questions that help the guest explore their own experiences. He knows how to ask a question and be quiet and listen! Wonderful guests as well.
