In this episode, I hang out with Sierra Torres. Sierra is a singer, painter, photographer, and lover of mythology and philosophy. Her paintings range from watercolor portraits with line fractures through their faces to paintings raising awareness for domestic violence called sugar coated abuse. She describes her music in Gin Wife as angsty, but pretty. Matched with a pretty/gross aesthetic. Red lipstick and a suit by an abandoned hotel pool. Like French, pretty fashion culture meets 80s Brit Punk. A romantic tale of self-sabotage. Her biggest advice for artists is you can't be a part of the scene if you stay at home. Charge up your social battery and get out there and be a part of the community. She shares the importance of being available in an interesting way, having a good attitude, and having no expectations. We talk about self awareness, knowing your self-worth, and how that plays an important role in the scene. Influences like The Cranberries, Joan Jett, Panic at the Disco, Diiv, Sorry, Cherry Glazer, Lucy Dacus, and Stella Donnelly. Local photographer influences like Hannah Hall, Kyle Neach, Wavy Kirt, and Jeremy Aguirre. Enjoy!
