Creative Money ATX
I am Bri Landry and I grew up in Austin, Texas. I have seen the skyscrapers go up with the cost of living. Austin has always been a place for creatives and I want to find out how we can keep it that way. In this podcast, I will be talking to local artists to find out how they are affording Austin. I want to talk about money, successes, and failures. What does it take to make a living off your art in Austin?

Marcella Colavecchio | Figure Painting
In this episode of Creative Money ATX, we talk with Austin-based figure painter Marcella Colavecchio. Marcella shares how her first job out of college—working at a bank—shaped her thoughtful financial mindset. She also reflects on her experience growing up with Italian immigrant parents and the journey that led her to Austin. Tune in for a compelling conversation about art, money, and finding your place in a creative city.
