Episode 01: Paint the Town
Julie Amlin
Artist & Muralist
She sees the world through full colour spectrum glasses, and has been taking the Toronto public art world by storm. On the premier episode of PARLAY I am joined by Julie Amlin, exceptionally talent artist and muralist, and also, my oldest and dearest friend. Julie’s journey is ever evolving, and she openly and honestly shares her experiences of not only reclaiming her passion for art, but also learning to put her true self out into the world as well. With more kindness, strength, wisdom, and creativity than anyone I know, step by step Julie found her way back to being the colour-loving creative she always was inside.
Some takeaways from this episode include:
unboxing shelved passions

unexpected loss and how it impacts our path
the importance art and creativity in both private and public spaces
