It’s not every day that artists exhibit their art to the public. Sometimes artists go through their entire life before they get the inner strength to expose their work to the critique of others. The fact that a 16-year-old student artist gets this opportunity, is by itself remarkable.

11th grader James Lane is our guest today.

With James today we discuss:

• What happens when Art runs in the family;
• Expressing the metamorphosis from destruction to resurrection;
• Making art while being a full-time student;
• From coolness to an existential need;
• Being bestowed or endowed with a talent for art;
• Getting opportunities to explore Art through the school art program.
