For our 100th episode, we're honored to welcome one of our favorite designers, Edith Anne Duncan, for a conversation that every art lover and homeowner needs to hear.

In a world obsessed with trends and perfectly styled spaces, Edith reminds us of something far more enduring: great design doesn't begin with furniture—it begins with art.

Together, we explore why original artwork creates homes with soul, how designers use art to guide every design decision, and what collectors often get backwards when furnishing a space. Whether you're decorating your first home, collecting your first original painting, or simply wanting your spaces to feel more personal, this conversation will completely change the way you think about design.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why art should come before furniture.
• How original artwork creates rooms that feel layered and collected.
• The biggest decorating mistakes homeowners make.
• What designers look for when selecting artwork.
• Why investing in meaningful art transforms a house into a home.

If you've ever wondered why some homes simply feel different, this episode will show you why.

Thank you for being part of the first 100 episodes of The Splatter Effect. We couldn't have reached this milestone without you, and we're so excited for what's ahead.

After 102 episodes of The Splatter Effect, we've learned that building a creative business isn't about having the perfect plan. It's about starting before you're ready, staying consistent when no one is watching, and being willing to pivot when the path changes.

In this episode, we're reflecting on the biggest lessons we've learned from interviewing artists, growing our own businesses, and showing up week after week behind the microphone. From embracing imperfect action to trusting the long game, we're sharing the advice we wish someone had given us when we started.

Whether you're a full time artist, creative entrepreneur, or just beginning your journey, this conversation is packed with practical encouragement to help you keep moving forward.

Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs don't come from one big moment. They come from showing up 102 times.
