  • Shoot the breeze please!

    Loved your Three Illustrators Shooting the Breeze episode! I’be been a listener for years and love the combo of you three together the most. Fabulous content as always. I’ve been enjoying your guest interviews immensely too.

    I’m 40 years in on this wonderful ride as an illustrator, not always easy, but having peers like you to listen to inspires and enlightens, so thank you!

  • Do they just want your money?

    In general I am a very positive guy. In the latest podcast (Oct 2025) they both ragged on people who say $400 for their online class is too expensive then went on to talk about how stressful selling their house with a pool is because the realtor can’t figure out how to turn on the pool heater. It really brought me down and came off as totally out of touch. I love art but I think these guys don’t realise how those comments discourage people who are working really hard both just to make ends meet... more

  • Enjoyable click funnel

    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a long time and the hosts are interesting and charming in their own ways. They are also talented. They also often have enjoyable guests. It should be obvious that this is a promotional device for SVSLearn. The podcast promotes itself as “a place where you can learn how to be a professional, get hired, and how to make a difference in the world with your art.” If you’re listening though, the hosts also let slip from time to time that the reality is they need... more

  • Nope

    I really wanted to like this podcast. The first episode was 20+ minutes wasted listening to the male speakers continually talk over the one woman on the show. And they aren’t that interesting. Especially the professor with the scratchy voice. He sure likes to hear himself talk. C’mon guys. It’s 2025, almost 2026 and you still haven’t gotten the memo about letting women speak uninterrupted? Lame.

    Do better, guys.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Danielle McGeough: Keys for a Generative Creative Life
Q: What should you do when your project starts feeling like a burden and stops feeling playful?
She suggests recognizing shifts in energy and purpose, reflecting on what you actually want, and possibly shifting mediums or projects temporarily to preserve energy and joy, rather than forcing continued output.
Regina Linke: Illustrating Philosophy
Q: How did Instagram influence her career?
She explains starting Oxford Boy during the pandemic, posting regularly, expanding through audience engagement, and learning to balance personal voice with character‑driven storytelling as her following grew.
Regina Linke: Illustrating Philosophy
Q: How did Regina transition from a business/global‑aid background to illustration?
She describes a gradual pivot from corporate finance and microfinance toward travel and tourism in Taiwan, followed by embracing Gongbi painting and eventually developing the Oxford Boy project as a way to teach life lessons with a philosophical underpinning.
Three Illustrators Shooting the Breeze
Q: Riley asks what to do if someone wants a manager or agent but wants to avoid social media.
The panel notes that social media is not strictly mandatory; many agents rely on portfolios and websites, and authors/publishers value engagement through events and galleries. They suggest creating a minimal social presence (e.g., a sparse Instagram portfolio or third-party scheduling) while prioritizing a strong website and active outreach to bookstores and festivals.
Three Illustrators Shooting the Breeze
Q: Deborah asks if a podcast focused specifically on master studies would be good, and what the steps to doing a master study would be.
The hosts outline a step-by-step approach: choose a master that aligns with the learner's goals, perform a written analysis of how the master uses techniques, do small sectional studies, then copy line-for-line with color matching, and finally perform a postmortem to distill which elements to apply to one's own work.
