Tonya Engel (@tonyaengel) shares RISE! FROM CAGED BIRD TO POET OF THE PEOPLE, MAYA ANGELOU, written by Bethany Hegedus. Tonya talks about allowing her stream of consciousness to guide her when creating the art for RISE!. The result is a series of paintings rich in imagery and an inner strength that undeniably links that artist to her subject. Tonya speaks on how illustrating Maya Angelou's life was like telling the story of one of her ancestors and how this book project shed light on how she and Angelou's life somewhat mirrored one another. Like a beautifully crafted poem, there's a lot to take in here in this conversation. You can access even more information about this book and its author by visiting www.matthewcwinner.com/podcast.
