Today’s Guest is Misty Sol
Misty and I met over social media a couple of years ago when we were introduced by a mutual friend and fellow art aficionado. An interdisciplinary artist, Misty uses the gifts she’s developed as a painter, a performance artist, and a farmer, among her many other talents. Misty Sol creates art that explores Black people’s connections to nature, wellness, and speculation. Her paintings, children’s book illustration, stories and eco practice are heavily influenced by Black history and aesthetics.
Misty’s work inherits a sense of narrative, sensuality, magic, timelessness, hope, the bucolic and fecund stimulated by the history of her family through tales told to her by her grandmother who was a migrant farmworker, a midwife and a gifted story teller in early 20th century America.
Since 2018, Misty has been the creative director of Tiny Farm Wagon. Misty's paintings made international debut on the CBS sitcom Grand Crew in 2021. In 2022 her paintings were seen on the set of the Oprah Network's All Rise Season 3, now streaming. Misty Sol has a BA in Literature from Penn State University Park and an MFA in Interdisciplinary Art from Goddard College.
