  • Andrew Baker, Creature & Concept Artist for Film, Television and Games

    Check out this awesome conversation I had with Creature and Concept Artist Andrew Baker.

    I love what he says about immersing yourself in the source and being inspired by work that's come before you:

    If you're inspired by something, "just go back to that source and immerse yourself in it, because inspiration is abundant and you will never be lost for work...

    "I don't think it's stealing. I just like the idea that it's resting on the shoulders of giants. And I think anything good has a lineage and has a history."

    What a beautiful thought. :-)

  • Peyton Varney of Naughty Dog

    In this episode, I want to introduce you to Peyton Varney. He's one of those annoying Artists who got the job of their dreams right out of school... ;)

    How did he score his dream job right out of the gate? He dove deeper than other people. Pure and simple.

    He did more than all the other applicants to show that he can do the job.

    Find out more in this episode.

  • Abdelrahman Kubisi of MPC

    Abdelrahman Kubisi is a Character and Creature Artist at MPC.

    He had one of the coolest Patreons for Character Artists until he just recently shut that down.

    On top of that, he produced an amazing Scarlett Johansson with Jeremy Celeste at Texturing.xyz.

    One of the things I loved to hear is when he documents his work from 2015 and how it has improved in 2018.

    It was very inspiring to talk to somebody who really lives the motto of constant, unending improvement.

  • Bonus Episode: What Makes You Matter?

    In this special New Year's episode, Ryan Kingslien reminds us that, at the end of the day, it's not the big goals or grand plans or New Year's Resolutions that make a difference in our lives.


    Your superpower is that thing that you do every day.


    What have you been doing every day that has had some impact on the universe?

    In other words, what makes you matter?


    Then, do something that connects with what makes you matter. :)
