Last week we launched our online store where we now sell our handmade items including our photography, art, and illustration prints, beach glass art, watercolor bookmarks, greeting cards, stickers and more to come! We also launched our merch and music shop where you can purchase our art designs on apparel and purchase downloads of our original music. So in today’s episode we’re going to talk about the Grand Opening and how it went, our new approach to our videos, and the plan for our next project and video.

We're back in the new year and talking about our personal resolutions and the ones we have as a business. We talk about all the changes we've been working on and where we've been!

The podcast will now be streamed on Thursday nights. We discuss the many cool features that were announced at Adobe Max! We also talk about some business updates as well.

We discuss the increase of Adobe Creative Cloud pricing (again) and why everything is a subscription now. We discuss Procreate and Procreate Dreams coming out soon, that allows you to use with a one-time fee. We give some Teal Fish Studio updates and talk about our recent Flora & Fauna trip completing the I Bird NY challenge, updating our Etsy shop, and the release of CS2 and our thoughts.

Part two of episode 11. Sadly, we lost our little Yorkie Madison.

We're trying something a little different. Since this podcast was so long we split it into two parts. Here's part one of episode 11. Topics include possible AI legislation on the horizon, Google SynthID, and Etsy Share and Save.

We discussed YouTube removing links in shorts and our thoughts, Rosemary first week working full time for Teal Fish Studio and how that went, YouTube's Community Guideline Updates and classes, and our playthrough and thoughts on Baldur's Gate 3!

Unexpectedly, Rose became our first full-time Teal Fish Studio employee after a mass layoff. We talk about how that played out and what to expect next from us and our content. We also discuss the old Twitter logo going out of commission, react content and what seems to be on the horizon, Adobe removing sync files from Creative Cloud, and Stitcher closing down.

This week we discovered that Discord has a forum channel function, we touch on some changes / updates to our Discord, and an inspiring TedTalk by Simon Sinek - Start With Why.

The topics covered this week are the I Bird NY Challenge, reducing barriers with permanent creative setups, reducing filler words like 'a', 'um', 'like', 'kind of', and more when speaking, also a quick update on the doggo Madison.
