In this episode of The Creative Kind, I talk with Amanda Billing about managing multiple art-related part-time jobs. Amanda, an artist, actress, and portrait photographer from Auckland, New Zealand, shares her journey from teaching to a 10-year acting stint on Shortland Street and her roles in various screen productions, to becoming a visual artist. We discuss the problematic 'part-time' label, the challenges of maintaining various jobs, and the inspiration behind her photography business, which started from a 100-day project. Amanda also discusses the importance of having a structured routine to balance acting, photography, and painting, and her upcoming solo exhibition at Browne School of Art. This conversation delves into the complexity of artistic identity, the need for self-discipline, and the fulfilment derived from pursuing creative passions.You can find Amanda here, her photography business here her work with artful here and her merch collection hereHer Solo show 'Embodiment' opens on Tuesday 15th October at Browne School of Art 5:30pm and is on until the 2nd of November 2024You can find the podcast hereThanks so much for listening!
