When Ramona Pintea turned 40, she decided to close her interior design business and start a new path following her true passion — art. During the beginning of the pandemic, she created a piece called Mother Earth which looks at the hope amongst all the terrible things happening. She shared it on Facebook and discovered a huge audience of supporters which spurred her to create the art series Urban Queen.
In the latest episode of the Make Meaning Podcast, Ramona speaks with host Lynne Golodner about the importance of making art about women, for women. Her bright and colorful paintings explore the desires, experiences, emotions, and inner worlds of women. Ramona is a perfect example of how it is never too late to change your career path.
In this episode, Lynne and Ramona discuss:
- Finding the courage to explore your true passion
- How aging is beautiful
- The importance of women in leadership roles
- The power of social media to connect with an audience
- The need for compassion, intuition, and caring
- Finding meaning by bringing joy to others
Coming up next on the Make Meaning Podcast:
