Listen "Illustration trends vs your creative voice PLUS what materials to use"
Episode Synopsis
Two more chunky questions for this week's episode:“How do I choose the right materials and techniques when I love them all?”“How do I keep up with new tech and trends without hopping on every train and going bananas?”It's a longer one this week! A podcast title that went in the bin was: Mouldy bingo dabbers: A love story. A moment of silence for that title. It woulda been great, but not very useful or searchable 😆Alas.Timestamps00:00 – “How do I choose the right materials?”01:00 – You don’t have to pick just one02:00 – Mixing media04:15 – Why learning 'the proper way' can sometimes kill your weirdness06:30 – The gouache phase 07:30 – Storytime: The incredible grasshopper drawings09:00 – Wrong materials = the right results10:00 – Drawing with stuff you don’t like13:15 – Listener question: “How do I keep up with tech & trends without going mad?”14:00 – Learning Procreate while making a book??17:00 – Trends are sneaky19:30 – Don't force yourself into a trend box22:00 – Are you a fan or trying to be someone else?24:00 – Going off-gridStuff we mention:Our Find Your Creative Voice: Fly Your Freak Flag courseThe doors are open!
