  • Great Guests; Good Questions

    They have a good variety of guests and ask questions that are interesting and based off the context of the guests' answers. Keep going!!

    At some point it might be worth learning how to record into a mic better to reduce "room tone".

    Give me a break. The commercials are blasting and they are so intrusive. Won't listen anymore.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Antony Williams
Q: Can you talk about scaling up tempera works and handling large surfaces?
Temperas can be used on large scales, but it requires enormous time and patience, applying many tiny touches over months to achieve depth and texture; the surface remains responsive to light and color interactions even at large sizes.
Antony Williams
Q: How do you mix and apply egg tempera for your portraits?
I premix pigments with distilled water, keep them in jars, and only mix a small dollop with egg yolk on the painting plate when I'm ready to work; the rest remains separate to preserve color integrity.
Steven S. Walker
Q: Is it photo reference exclusively or do you make sketches?
I make a lot of thumbnail sketches based on references initially.
Steven S. Walker
Q: How did you introduce yourself to the gallery?
The gallery approached me after seeing my work at an illustration competition.
Steven S. Walker
Q: How was that transition for you? How did you work that out?
It was not easy, but I had to figure out what makes me happy and that ended up being enjoying camping and being out in nature.
