In our first host-led episode of the Open Sketchbook Podcast, episode three, Evan Kitson reflects on his artistic journey, highlighting the significant influence of Juliette Aristides' book, Classical Drawing Atelier, and the impact of the highly influential graphic novel Arkham Asylum. He discusses the challenges of learning proportion in art, the importance of community in artistic growth, and the lessons learned from both traditional and contemporary artists. Evan emphasizes the need for flexibility in artistic processes and encourages listeners to engage with their own creative practices in a decisively non-procedural manner.
