Four years ago, I applied online to the AAUW Women Artists Exhibition...you can imagine my excitement when I found out my landscape had been accepted into the show. As i sat in the opening and awards ceremony, i was overcome with feelings of validation and support as i listened to members of the local chapter who so graciously put on this labor of love to the community...their experiences as well as those of each trustee family member, who share about a woman relative who has lifted our art community...whose legacy was now supporting our current and future art community.I remember talking my husband Carl’s ear off when i came home...that is...more than usual. It was a night not to be forgotten and in many ways, enough to sustain me in my vision and purpose for quite a while. Two years later i had a similar experience, this time, i sat next to my bestie, college roommate and lifelong friend Nancy Olson who is also an artist. It was such a treasure to share that night together, talking to juror Ashley Whitaker, and artist friends. This year of course, the show was canceled in a traditional way, meaning we weren’t able to present our work in person at the UCCC and share in the magic at the opening and awards ceremony. If there is one thing that i’ve learned from the COVID quarantine it is that there is always another way...i talked with our local AAUW committee chair Marilyn Shearer, this show’s juror Susan Anderson, artists Hilary Swingle and Nancy Andruk Olson, and we decided to share a bit of the magic of this show with your here in podcast land and of course on youtube. I am confident that you will be lifted and inspired by these lovely ladies and am so happy to introduce them to you.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:watch youtube version & see award winning piecesonline show: AAUW online showwebsite: AAUW of utahfacebook: marilyn shearer (committee chair) facebook: susan m anderson (juror) website: hilary swingle (juror’s choice award): website: nancy andruk olson (ruth e turner honor award) nancy’s artist residency at BDACLEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next? let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.cominstagram @katrina.bergemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

sweet lady laura first impressed me with her unabashed sense of style and gift as a designer. as we adventured in italy rooming together while studying abroad, i learned and watched as she designed with a 6th sense in 3rd & 4th dimensions. Her authentic soul and raw honesty is such a breath of fresh air and still find myself in awe of her bravery. The sky was never the limit with laura and she exemplifies that in her design as a landscape architect, being a woman, mother, wife, and pursuing her dreams professionally and personally. love you so laura miller-johnson!laura miller johnson at the making place studio the making place studio on facebooknominate a SWEETlady in your life...we'd love to learn all about her and how she's made a difference in your life & in the lives of others ([email protected])LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next? let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.cominstagram @katrina.bergemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

how to take photographs of artwork for future prints? start with natural light. filtered is easiest and cloudy days make it a dream. sunny days are great too, just put your work near a window with indirect light. windows on the north side of your home will be easiest.you'll want high-resolution photos and can use a digital camera or even your phone (as long as you're not printing foot-sized images lol).i prefer to stand over my paintings to get the photo just right, although you can set up a tripod and hang your work on the wall. i find the over-the-top approach is easy and quick.once you have taken your photos you can adjust the colors to match the true colors in your painting by using photo editing apps (my fav is VSCO) or photoshop does a beautiful job as well.make sure to save your photos in a couple of different places & then they'll be ready to become prints when you are!LEAVE ME FEEDBACK:what should i talk about next? let me know in the comments below.did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.cominstagram @katrina.bergemail: [email protected] my SWEETlistJOIN THE CANDYCLUBCANDYcolored clubMINI courses CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

Meet my beautiful friend Melinda Brown, author of EVE and ADAM discovering the beautiful balance. We originally met at art shows as she and her family are avid art collectors. The more I got to know Mindy, the more I learned of the foundations and causes she supports that seek to protect and uplift women. One sweet afternoon she shared with me some of the precious gems she was researching for this book. It came at a time when I was struggling spiritually with so many unanswered questions. Our talk and the knowledge she shared with me that day has been an important part of my healing and understanding that I will always treasure. I have been anxiously waiting for her book to be published and am excited for each of you to have the opportunity as well.LINKS FROM TODAY’S EPISODE:Melinda Brown, authorEVE and ADAM discovering the beautiful balanceinstagram @brave.like.eveLEAVE ME FEEDBACK:what should i talk about next? let me know in the comments below.did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.cominstagram @katrina.bergemail: [email protected] my SWEETlistJOIN MY CANDYCLUB (only open march 2nd - 7th)CANDYcolored clubMINI courses CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: [email protected] my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

have you built a home before? this episode is all about building our quirky modern green concrete home. my husband carl and i had met in architecture school, so it was a big dream...he had just started his own landscape architecture firm, i was painting away, we had 3 littles and were in the middle of our miscarriage streak...but we wanted to build a home on a tight budget that could fit our growing family. when we found old homes we loved, they seemed to need too much to create the spaces we really wanted, so we started looking at empty lots, hired an architect and gave him our paper plans i’d been sketching for years. as with most home builds, we hit lots of roadblocks and learned so very invaluable lessons. we thrifted and salvaged sinks, doors, furniture, left out cabinetry, and phased the building so that we could keep our mortgage as low as possible. there are some unique things as well: a greenhouse attached to the kitchen, a couch and reading area in the kitchen, a bridge, storefront commercial windows, concrete and cork flooring, no AC, no traditional heat, a wood-burning stove, radiant heat, etc...and we’re still working on it all lol.
