A podcast dedicated to telling inspiring stories of artists
Being an artist can be a heck of a ride, but you’re not alone.
On Journey of the Art, we tell inspiring stories of artists and chat with those who support us on this path.
Hosted by Lola Opatayo, writer, editor, singer, and all-round lover of words.
Navigating the spectrum of artistry
No matter where you are on the spectrum of artistry—beginner, intermediate, or advanced—you will find inspiration and insights to help you make sense of your creative journey.
My goal is to extend lifelines to artists by unravelling the complications behind artistry and bridging the gap between artists and the receivers of their work.
Come with me on the journey!
