Brittany Torres likes dragons, wine, and attempting to write her hypothetical book late at night. She braved the college towns of MA to emerge armed with a Bachelor’s of Liberal Arts from Mount Holyoke College and a deeper appreciation for female representation. To no one’s surprise she majored in both English and in Medieval Studies, specializing in King Arthur, Beowulf, and manuscript research. She then went the completely opposite direction to work in self publishing as a graphic designer for book covers.
Skip ahead a couple years and she is now the successful business owner of The Social Atelier, where she coaches fellow artists in discovering the power of their unique branding. No matter the career though, Brittany always comes back to art and the world of fantasy where her too big imagination fits right in.
When not glued to the computer you can find her with a cup of coffee in hand, living a ridiculously fun life with her husband, the firefighter, and their cat, the tiny savage, in their home in Washington State.
Host and artist Stephanie Scott breaks down the practicality of the art career with topics including: sustainable creative practices, social media skills, and the mindsets that keep it all together. New episodes every Tuesday!
