Your Art Friends

Two experts in the field of imagining beautiful but dumb stuff, put their heads together to fix society and make it better for the artists! Will they solve issues such as global warming or offer solutions to rework corrupt political structures? No, but we will be doing away with the color beige.

Join us as we advocate for creativity and cuteness this week and stay to the end to meet the newest member of our team...

This week your art friends welcome golden boy Timothy Von Rueden (@Vonnart) to the table to talk all about figure drawing! They've done it, they've taught it, and now they're going to tell you all about the funny, strange, beautiful and even tragic aspects of the practice... and yes, you do have to draw the genitals.

Beth, describing this episode to Andrew: "Lets see, I talk about Tales of Berseria and Beastars a lot. You're surprised I don't like beastars anymore. We both obsess over the new netflix dating show Sexy Beasts and ask people to tell us if we should do an episode where we talk about an episode of the show. We discuss why we think the cars have windshield eyes which includes discussions of the interior workings of a car with functioning meat anatomy: can it smell, can it poop, where's the tongue. You suggest that the designers didn't want to draw the inside of the cars and/or jon lassator saw the scary car movie as a kid and doesn't like the headlights as eyes because it scared him. Kristy? I forget what that movies called. I get upset about the old cartoon Susy the Coupe because it's a sexy car and it's weird how all the female cars are like, sexy. OH and you give us a rundown on the pixar timeline which suggests that cars gain their power from human battery energy and I think it's very dumb. It's a good bit of you being like "no! the youtubers MUST be right!" and me losing my mind. And that's just the first hour"
