How do we get to the point where we fully trust? Trust that things will work out, trust that the thing that calls you will lead you right where you need to be? Dive deep with me into these topics with California based visual artist Cosette Grider.  Cosette took that leap and in this talk she shares openly about her trials and victories and how with a little patience and grit you can do it too.

The queen behind Amanda Ruth Art, Amanda Burns, is a beautiful acrylic and oil painter from Southern California.  In this talk we cover topics such as mental health, the double edge sword of social media, and burnt toast (lol).  A funny yet deep conversation and at the core we find the power of art.

From Amanda: I am a work from home artist who mainly paints fan art, pet portraits, and Bob Ross style landscapes. I use mainly acrylic paints, and then oils for the landscapes. I began painting when I was in about 5th grade. I had a very creative teacher who sparked a creative passion in me and I have been painting ever since.

I took as many art classes as I could in high school and went on to study media arts and animation. I did not complete my animation degree because the more I studied it the more I realized that digital art was not for me. I missed the hands on messiness of traditional painting. So I left college to pursue other art dreams.

For about 5 years I worked as a paint and sip party host. I would host art parties at different restaurants and venues and lead people through beginner paintings while they all drank and had a great time. I stepped away from that and I am now living my dream of being a self employed, work from home artist. Huzzah!

I have an amazing husband who treats me like a queen, a corgi named Olimar, and a cat named Midna. We are huge Nintendo fans and all around geeks. I like to paint the things that make me happy, which means a lot of fan art and corgis!

I recently became a Certified Ross Instructor (CRI) and am now able to teach other people the Joy of Painting using the Bob Ross techniques.

I live stream all of my paintings and process on Twitch where you can watch me paint and chat with me. I love to get to know new people so come say hi!
