ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists
ARTMATTERS is an intimate, bi-weekly podcast featuring in-studio conversations between host Isaac Mann and professional
artists from around the world. Now in its second season with over 55 episodes, the show has become a vital resource for the
contemporary art community, exploring everything from technical practices and daily studio insights to career advice, creative
blocks, and the emotional realities of making art.
Host Isaac Mann brings both the perspective of a working artist and the curiosity of a thoughtful interviewer to each conversation,
creating a space where artists can discuss not just their techniques and influences, but also the vulnerable aspects of creative life-
hope, depression, expectation, success, and failure.
Whether exploring technical processes, relationship dynamics, or tips for a healthier practice, ARTMATTERS offers
both emerging and established artists a rare glimpse into the real experiences behind successful creative careers.

Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists.
Today’s guest is Thai Mainhard. Thai is an abstract painter that live and works in Los Angeles. Originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Thai draws inspiration from human experiences and tension found in daily life and her own memories of it.
In this week’s episode I sit down with Thai to discuss how she starts a painting, the magic of good teachers, the function of mood, formula and what she calls ‘the source’ in her daily studio practice.
We also discuss collage, scale, leaving the rectangle and how to leave the studio with a little bit of excitement to start tomorrow.
