  • Refreshing

    Thank you so much for the episode “There’s a hidden cost to selling your work”. Your words resonated with me and as I listened, I discovered some things about myself that I wouldn’t have had you not been so honest and candid about your own experiences. I’ve really learned a lot from many of the episodes on this podcast. Thank you for sharing 💕

  • Smart and useful

    Very good podcast that probes painting techniques, difficulties, through how to begin, materials (paints, medium, surfaces, brushes), but also dives into advanced strategies, frustrations, and satisfactions. Some superb guests, and the host keeps it moving and insightful.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Learn the Process, Then Break the Rules with JaFang Lu (Ep.123)
Q: What does oil give you as an artist?
Oil gives the artist a sense of color engagement and a pliable, clay-like quality; Lu emphasizes the material's tactile nature and how it informs her approach to color and form.
Learn the Process, Then Break the Rules with JaFang Lu (Ep.123)
Q: It really sounds like you had a sense of what you wanted, or certainly a sense of what you didn't want. How hard was that to figure out what you needed?
It's a difficult thing to find a way of learning a skill that resonates with the person you are; the right approach for one student may not be right for another, and a teacher has to balance providing structure with allowing individual needs to emerge.
Building a Serious Painting Practice With a Full-Time Job with Aida Smith (Ep.122)
Q: How did finding oil change your art practice?
Using oil paint represented a level-up in her practice as it allowed others to perceive her as a serious artist, despite her own feelings of still learning.
Building a Serious Painting Practice With a Full-Time Job with Aida Smith (Ep.122)
Q: What were the biggest skills that you developed that helped you feel confident in your work?
Aida stated that the ability to mix colors was a crucial skill that made her feel like she could do anything with her painting.
Building a Serious Painting Practice With a Full-Time Job with Aida Smith (Ep.122)
Q: How did you build skills while working full-time?
