This episode features artist Alondra Uhi, who shares her journey from a storytelling-obsessed child to a professional oil painter specializing in fantasy and spiritually inspired artwork. She discusses how her early love of books and movies evolved into visual storytelling through art, her pivot away from digital illustration due to industry changes (including AI), and how she unexpectedly fell in love with oil painting during college.
Alondra explains how she built her career through commissions—especially within fantasy fandoms—and how social media (particularly TikTok) helped her grow demand. She also touches on the emotional connection to her work, the challenge of selling pieces she loves, and her deeper purpose of creating art that inspires, uplifts, and connects—particularly highlighting women’s spiritual experiences.
