Ladies of Instaart Ep 19- Abbie Paulhus

Abbie Paulus was a new discovery of mine during a late night Instagram scroll. She's such a gem and I'm glad I found her. In our conversation, she had so many wonderful things to say. I highly encourage you to listen to this weeks episode.

Abbie just figured out what she is doing with her life in January 2016, and that is illustration.
She specializes in creating whimsical, primitive style art that evokes and expresses emotion.
She is currently living in Las Vegas, NV. Originally she's from Holland, Michigan and has also lived in Dunham, Quebec. She lives with her charming husband, Nick and adopted dog, Pepper.
She is currently a student at College of Southern Nevada with an emphasis in Art.
When she's not illustrating you can find her illustrating or illustrating.

If you take a peak at Abbie's profile you will see her bio that says, 'collaboration over competition'. When I asked about it, she had lots of great things to say. "I don't believe in competing with anybody in the art world at all...I really believe that there is enough room in the art world for everybody. I think there's a lot of art that needs to be created and it's a lie that if you're going to be an artist you're going to be a starving artist."
