On this episode we sat down with Mathieu Nozieres, a French oil painter based in the US with a passion for creating complex narrative oil paintings reminiscent of the Paris Salon painters of the 19th century. We discuss the importance of listening to your inner voice even when your teachers are telling you the opposite, why branding can be useful so long as you're still true to your authentic voice, how to learn illustration techniques to create narrative paintings that look realistic, and why what your art says is just as important if not more so than only creating a beautiful painting. Finally we talk about his current group exhibition at Haven Gallery where both his painting and his wife's painting are hanging side by side for a show called Duality, his upcoming group exhibition with Beautiful Bizarre Magazine happening later this year, and finally he tells us about his new prints coming out soon!

On today's episode we interviewed Eric Armusik, a representational painter with a passion for complex narrative paintings who is seeking to recreate and celebrate the human experience through large renaissance style works. We spoke about the challenges he faced as a budding representational artist in a time when realism was considered to be dead, his incredible passion project in which he's creating 40 paintings depicting scenes of Dante's Inferno, how he sacrificed sleep in order to build his painting career at the same time as having a day job which he was able to quit, and why believing in yourself to take those steps to grow in your career will pay off in the end for you as well. Finally, we discuss how you can become one of Eric's students and learn directly from him from the basics of painting to helping you grow your artistic career!

Today, we sat down with Hillary Scott, a tonalist landscape painter based in Massachusetts. Her work is all about capturing gorgeous scenes in reality that she then imbues with her inner vision to create an even more beautiful scene. We discuss how she went from illustrator to realist plein air painter, how it's better to paint afraid than to never attempt to create at all, the importance of maintaining a vision that is just beyond your comfort zone, and that the only true failure is when you stop trying. Finally, we discuss great advice for anyone seeking to start plein air and excellent advice for those who are seeking to become a full time artist.

On this episode, we sat down with fellow podcaster and an incredible painter Andrew Tischler. Andrew is based in New Zealand and has been a professional artist for over 20 years. He focuses not only on producing the absolute best work that he can create, but also focuses on helping others learn to do the same through his podcast, YouTube Channel, and Patreon while also balancing his time so he can be present with his family. We discuss the importance of self-development to find your authentic voice, why being moved is the key to moving others, why art created with inner motivation is more powerful than art created from an exterior motivation, and why stepping into different roles can help you move forward in every part of your life. Finally, we discuss how to transition from day-job to full time artist, focusing on your time-management to achieve that goal, and why working on your social media will pay off so long as you're patient and consistent. And to end things off, we talk about Andrew's teaching platform called Tisch Academy and his upcoming courses where he will be taking his students through the fundamentals of oil painting from the basics to more complicated lessons.

To kick off season 4, we interviewed an incredible artist named Kai Lun Qu. Kai is a great example of someone who took a chance on the things that brought him joy during a time when he had nothing left to lose, and it truly changed his life for the better. In this episode we discuss how he found his way as an artist, how to learn on your own if you truly have no way of attending a school, and how to use the things that spark joy in you as a way of not only finding your voice as an artist, but also as a path to find the people who truly support you and to find opportunities you never could've imagined. Finally, we also discuss his participation in the upcoming San Diego Comic con.

This episode is different from our others in that we sat down with our friend and colleague Olya Babich Konell to discuss a topic that I believe many of us have heard: burnout. Almost everyone at this point is familiar with the word and maybe even familiar with the dreaded feeling of not being able to motivate oneself to do the thing you usually love to do! So, we decided to make this episode to help teach you how to identify if what you're facing is actually burnout, how to help you move through it so you can gain your motivation back, and how to prevent it from sneaking back into your life. The best part is, we also discuss WHY rest is so important and how it can amp up your creativity.

For today's episode I'm joined by our CEO Clint Watson to interview Kyle Ma, a 23 year old prodigy who began painting seriously at the age of 10 and is now a successful artist living from his work. Kyle has a deep love of nature which explains why his subject matter is primarily plein air. In this episode, we discuss the importance of taking care of your needs like bills so you can allow your creativity to flow without the stress of making ends meet, why focusing on making a masterpiece is not the right way to go when you're starting a painting, and the importance of mastery before marketing. We also discuss his upcoming workshop at Bluebird Studios in Santa Fe, NM this September.

For this episode, we sat down with Debra Keirce,  a realist artist who enjoys painting Trompe L'oeil miniatures and photorealism with a narrative approach. She began as a biochemical engineer but never gave up on her dream of one day becoming an artist. Since her career change, Debra has become an award-winning member of many prestigious artist organizations and recently she became the recipient of the 2022 Best of Show George Gray Award with the Coast Guard Art Program. This then led to her being invited onto an artist's residency out at sea. On this episode, we discussed her transition from engineer to artist, the importance of focusing on creating beautiful work that touches people's souls, the benefits of joining artist's clubs and organizations, and to not be afraid to "just do it".
