118 - Finding Your Flow with Yao Cheng

118 - Finding Your Flow with Yao Cheng I recently had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with the wonderful Yao Cheng! Yao is a watercolor artist and designer based in Columbus, Ohio. While she has been painting and drawing since the age of 5, her introduction to watercolor really began a few years ago while exploring new painting techniques. With this medium, the connection was immediate and it has since defined her painting style and marked the beginning for Yao Cheng Design! We talk about starting your own business, Yao’s artistic breakthroughs and what it feels like when you’ve found your flow. Yao and I will both be speaking at this year’s Midwest Craft Con, Feb 10-12.
