The MURAL Episode is a detailed breakdown of the creative and business process of a mural I was commissioned to design and paint for the Downers Grove Public Library in 2017.

It was a huge creative undertaking and I enjoyed the challenge.

WARNING - Due to the visuals I refer to this episode plays better on my YouTube Channel, so you won't hurt my feelings if you head over there now.

Your expectations of your art and career need to be disciplined and realistic! Otherwise you can end up stuck, wasting time and making little to no progress. How hard are we supposed to be on ourselves? Too hard and we burn our or worse. Too easy and we get nowhere or worse. This episode tackles this OFTEN INVISIBLE issue and offers some thoughts on how to find the proper middle ground that makes for a path to success.

How I got responses from Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, Disney and Universal with my (and my partner's) Cartoon Property - Zombie Todd!

Years ago, my friend, Paul Van Dorn, and I created, wrote and illustrated an animated concept series for television. I share the journey from concept to sitting down with a producer/director at Universal Studios in L.A..

The biggest takeaway in this episode is our process of reaching out to the studios and GETTING NOTICED!!! Some art, feathers, hot peppers and a sprinkling of mystery did the job...

Keith Gordon is the co-founder and story architect at Duo Storytelling. After years of working as a fiction editor, his wake-up call came when he realized that there were thousands of aspiring authors looking to share their stories with the world, but for one reason or another, they lacked the confidence and the courage to make the leap. He formed www.duostorytelling.com with the intention to not only inspire authors to tell their kick-ass stories, but to unleash their storytelling potential through developmental editing, one-on-one coaching, ghostwriting, and educational online workshops. Keith and the Duo team have worked with USA Today Bestsellers, Amazon Bestsellers, and award-winning indie authors to hone their craft and tell their best stories.
