I don't even remember when I first heard about Pino the Donkey, but it's been a while. I read about how his Person, Katherine Dunn, is an artist who has done illustrations for Target, Hallmark, and Neiman Marcus, among many other clients, and how she now lives on Apifera Farm with Pino and a host of other animals and, oh, yeah, her husband, and how she helps Pino raise money for senior animals by hosting Pie Day. So I sent Pino some aprons, of course. And then I got Katherine's new book, Creative Illustration Workshop for Mixed Media Artists, and so of course I had to talk to her.

How delightfully timely for me ... As an artist, a woman of a certain age and ... as a dreamer who is at long last living her dreams again.
My deepest gratitude to both of you for sharing your conversation with fellow kindred spirits — via the sparkly time-suck (Internet)! ♥
Great interview. So intrigued by your guest so I had to check out her blog and enjoyed myself. got it bookmarked!
Is it garish as the one being interviewed to say how fun it was? However, I do have to work on using the term, "You know", eegads. Thanks for having me on- anytime you want to talk donkey, old goat, age or pie, I'm here.
Hi, Katherine! Thank you SO much for taking time to talk. You know, next year I'm going to hit you up for Pie Stories and, maybe, a recipe. I don't cook, but lots of people would kill for homemade pie. Esp. inspired by Pino--XO
Enjoyed listening to the podcast. Katherine touched on some timely issues. I just turned 49 and can't do those late nighters in the studio anymore...I've cut back severely on buying books this year but Katherine's was my latest purchase and I read it cover to cover!
Thank you both!
