  Today, on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, We are talking with Steve Light. Hearing his journey from web designer to Swindon's prominent mural artist demonstrates the transformative impact of rediscovered creativity. After a twenty-year hiatus, his return to art during lockdown has resulted in over 25 exhibitions and Swindon's largest mural, bringing vibrancy to the community.   His figurative expressionist style, influenced by Jean Dubuffet and Jean-Michel Basquiat, now adorns a converted post office studio where he creates works that challenge traditional artistic boundaries. Light's practice spans from street murals to gallery exhibitions, proving art's versatility in modern spaces.   Through initiatives like the Red Cliff Collective and collaborations with local musicians, Light exemplifies how artists can engage communities while maintaining creative integrity. His work continues to reshape Swindon's visual landscape, making art accessible to all residents.   Summary: 1. I introduce Steve Light, a mural artist from Swindon, who shares his journey from being a shy child with a love for art to becoming a significant figure in the street art scene of his hometown. 2. Steve discusses a discouraging experience with an art tutor that led him to abandon art for 20 years and how he humorously hints at a connection to the mysterious artist Banksy. 3. We explore how Steve reignited his passion for art during the lockdowns, transitioning from web design to a full-time art career, and how he secured a studio in a repurposed post office. 4. Steve describes his artistic style as figurative expressionist, drawing inspiration from artists like Jean Dubuffet, Keith Haring, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, and his aspirations for larger-scale works. 5. We delve into the intersection of art and commerce, discussing how artists can balance creative pursuits with commercial opportunities, and the role of art in branding and environments. 6. The episode explores the concept of street art collectives and creative collaborations, highlighting the impact of such initiatives on local communities and how they can elevate artists' reach. 7. We discuss the potential for forming a self-appointed art collective, drawing parallels between the art and music industries, and the opportunities for multidisciplinary collaboration within a collective. 8. Steve shares personal inspirations, including his love for 90s hip-hop and 80s bands, and discusses the potential for local initiatives, such as mural projects and designing for restaurants, to engage communities. 9. The conversation touches on previous collaborations, like painting a suit for a musician performing at Glastonbury, showcasing the value of leveraging local talent and creative synergies. 10. The episode concludes with ideas on creating innovative art projects, like permanent outdoor exhibitions, and the transformative potential of art in both individual careers and community development.   Show Links: ProfitActivatorScore.com BreakthroughDNA.com 90minutebooks.com

AI can help proliferate good design by reducing costs and making design more accessible. However, it shouldn't be used to simply generate mediocre, cookie-cutter designs. Good branding evokes emotion, nostalgia, a sense of belonging. It connects deeply to the human soul. AI allows designers like Anne to iterate faster, but it must be consciously integrated into the design process itself. AI is not just a singular tool, but a suite of integrated technologies and specialists. Tech-enabled design services represent a new model - neither a traditional design firm nor a software product. It networks human experts to provide the right guidance at the right time across multiple projects. Relationship-driven sales and trust are still crucial, even in tech-enabled services. Mass, impersonal sales don't work for bespoke design. Selling design is about education, framing it as a journey rather than a one-off product. Pricing should be flexible to suit the client's needs and stage. Design should aim to evoke emotion, not pursue perfection. It is an expression, not a solution to all problems. Change is inherent to humanity. Quotes "A great brand is a flag - a symbol of the thing you care about." "The original sin of every entrepreneur is 'I can change the world'." "Design doesn't need to be efficient. Design is about possibility." The Essence of Rad Studio: Foundational Approach: At its core, Rad Studio is a design studio that transcends traditional boundaries by treating technology as an integral part of the creative process. Creative Expenditure: The studio places a high value on the human design component, ensuring that creativity is at the forefront, enhanced by tech-enabled services. Service Orientation: Viewing design as a service, Rad Studio is already proficient in technology-enriched service provision, a natural progression for contemporary design practices. Visual Communication: A key advantage for designers is the capacity to "show, not tell," leveraging technology to present concepts in a visual cosmos, signaling the advent of an entirely new industry. The Role of Technology in Design: Credibility and Presentation: The importance of a well-crafted website or sales deck is likened to a personal meeting — each adds credibility and substance to the core design proposition. Overcoming Challenges: The journey from concept to core design is laden with hurdles, emphasizing the need for well-designed branding and sales materials to overcome these challenges. Learning and Development in Design: Value in Drudgery: The meticulous effort and attention to microscopic details, often seen as drudgery, are essential in mastering the craft and in the culmination of successful design work. Training and Craft: There's an inherent value and learning potential in the traditional design process that raises the question of its future in an AI-driven industry. The Economics and Accessibility of Design: Cost and Education: The dynamic between education and new fields in design, along with the introduction of AI, brings potential to reduce costs and democratize access to quality design. Tool Proliferation and Quality: The widespread availability of tools like Canva leads to a conversation about the race to mediocrity versus the expertise needed for truly great design. Nature, Art, and Branding: Inspiration and Reality: Nature serves as the ultimate muse for designers, with the symmetry and beauty found in the natural world guiding the aesthetic of true design. Branding as Art: The podcast delves into the relationship between branding and art, exploring how branding transcends mere symbols to evoke deep emotional responses and loyalty. The Philosophy of Branding: Taoism and Essence: Referencing the "Tao Te Ching," the conversation explores the notion that the true essence of a brand is beyond what can be named or expressed directly. Creating Connection: Brands are seen as symbols that connect on a soulful level, creating memories and feelings that elevate the relationship beyond transactional interactions. Rad Studio's Approach to Branding: Storytelling and Identity: Rad Studio believes that good brands tell a story, with modern storytelling weaving into consumerism to add depth and meaning. Entrepreneurship and Design: The entrepreneur's journey is a testament to the aspirational and sometimes naive belief that one can change the world through design. Building Relationships with Clients: Long-term Engagement: The discussion touches on the importance of the length and depth of the client-agency relationship, evolving with the client to infuse the brand with meaning through consistent action. The Future of Design with AI: Redefining the Role of AI: Anne Dudek emphasizes the importance of having a conscious relationship with AI, integrating it into the creative process to enhance efficiency and creativity.

Part 1 of the book called Alone, contains 9 chapters: The World Before, Empty Spaces, Hidden Heroes, Social Distancing, Lockdown Lifestyle, Virtual Living, Living in Isolation, Creativity Unleashed and Love and Connection.

Return guest Alan Shaprio continues our discussion on creativity, getting rid of numbness, finding and expressing your story and how routine helps him unleash his creative spark. In Alan's own words: Passionate, award-winning photographer. Advertising Chief Creative Officer, too I grew up on the creative side of the advertising world, working with clients around the world; telling their unique stories in very unique ways. Along the way, I've had the pleasure of working with many, many talented photographers, directors and content creators. I became envious of their art and craft. At first, I saw it as a means of reducing my stress-filled life. As a Chief Creative Officer at the world's largest Advertising Agency Network, I needed a distraction. A friend gave me a camera. Then I bought another. And then another. My new hobby and daily "creative exercise regimen" quickly turned into a joy-filled and all consuming passion. Then my first photo client called. Then another. And then, many more. Lockheed Martin, GM, Cadillac, Apple, Ritz Carlton, Bose, Scholastic,... I love talking to all sorts of people and seem to have a knack for getting them to open up and share themselves despite the intrusion and intimidation that a serious-looking camera often represents. I like finding and sharing things I find. Beautiful things. Powerful things. Poignant things. I also enjoy taking something ordinary and making it something well beyond that. Illustration and painting are other passions and I love creating unique "painted" photographs and photocompositions inspired by the Renaissance Masters. My work hangs in corporate and private collections. It graces retail environments, editorial spreads, TV show sets and has been featured on products from housewares to clothing to puzzles. Happiness. https://www.alanshapirophotography.com/

Hey lovely people! Lucy has a very honest, free-flowing chat in this week's episode about our subconscious minds, limiting beliefs, privilege and learning new things. It's so important that we go into new situations, meet new people or try to understand new ideas with an open mind so that we can actually be receptive to new information and not be consumed by our existing beliefs and opinions. Unlearning what we think we know can be pretty tricky because our subconscious minds tend to think they're right, but it's so key for eliminating issues such as racism, political division and gaslighting. Let's all be open minded so we can focus on what's genuinely important to us

In this episode, Steve Chandler (author of over 30 books including 100 Ways to Motivate Yourself and Time Warrior) and I talk about his career as a songwriter, why I get more frustrated with my creative process than he does with his, and how the chaos of the pandemic economy may turn out to be incredibly healing for our world!

Last year, Jessie had an amazing opportunity to showcase a few pieces of her floral sculptures at The Freedom Factory Toronto after one of the owners of the gallery, Tiffany MacIsaac, handpicked her to be a part of a juried group show of 60 artists. The experience was rewarding for Jessie in so many ways - exposure to the local art community, engagement with other artists, commissions, and other unexpected opportunities, and taking a prize home for placing 2nd in the juried event. The most exciting was meeting Tiffany herself - a self-taught artist, curator, and visionary behind The Visual Arts Movement. In this Episode, we chat with Tiffany about her unique approach to curating art, her no-commission art gallery, and her advice to aspiring artists. Let's get to know Tiffany: 1. Tell us about yourself. Who is Tiffany MacIsaac? I am a Toronto based self-taught artist and curator, as well as co-owner of The Freedom Factory Toronto. 2. Tell us about The Freedom Factory Toronto The Freedom Factory is a no-commission art gallery, event space, and creative hub. We believe that creativity is a state of mind rather than a talent you're born with. Whether you're an artist or an accountant you need creativity in your life! Artists who exhibit with us keep 100% of their sales and we subsidize this by offering private events and curated micro weddings in our space. 3. What is The Freedom Factory's Visual Arts Movement and Weddings? V.A.M - The Freedom Factory's Visual Arts Movement provides emerging artists with a platform to: exhibit their work in our juried exhibition for a chance to win amazing prizes showcase their work in front of industry leaders, art collectors, and the public sell their work in a zero commission environment attend professional development workshops and expert panel art talks as well as creative networking events and art parties It takes place once a year in various locations around the city as it is too big for our gallery space and typically we accept 60 artists into the juried exhibition. This show is so near and dear to our heart, we actually started curating this exhibition before we opened the first gallery almost 5 years ago. It is such a wonderful opportunity for emerging artists to put themselves out there in a way that can make a true impact on the trajectory of their career and build confidence. Our Micro Wedding service is something we started to offer officially at the top of this year after seeing so many couples coming to our event space stressed about the cost and workload of planning their large-scale dream day. It is essentially an ALL INCLUSIVE Luxury Micro Wedding Experience designed by local artists. Invest in your marriage, not your wedding! Learn more here. 4. Why would an artist want to show his/her work at a gallery? Pictures are worth a thousand words but nothing is like seeing an artist's creation in person. It is wonderful to take full advantage of online marketing etc, but hanging your work in a physical gallery gives people an opportunity to view your work up close and personal with trained sales staff on hand to convey the passion and story behind each piece. Of course, sales are the main objective, however, so many incredible opportunities come from the exposure that showing with a gallery can bring also. Connections to industry professionals who can help further your career, introduction to future buyers and collectors, commission opportunities, brand partnerships, and so on. It is also a great opportunity to build a network of other creatives and like-minded people whether for business or personal connection. 5. How does an artist get shown at a traditional art gallery versus your art gallery? Typically galleries will post open calls for artists if they are looking to curate group exhibitions with a particular theme. Each open call and gallery will have a specific set of submission guidelines (please read them carefully and treat it like applying for a job). These calls for artists are typically found on the gallery's website or social media platforms. I think it is important to do your research when it comes to which galleries are best suited for the style of work you do and which you think would best resonate with you. Each will have a different process for how they take on an artist. With us, if you're looking to have a solo exhibition we have a link to start that discussion on our website. 6. What does a curator look for in an artist's work? I think this varies between curators. While technical ability and precision in your work obviously speaks for itself, I personally look for artists with something to say, whether it's taking a style I have seen again and again and making it your own or the ability to convey a message or story that needs to be shared... for me I would rather work with an artist who has a unique style and voice but may need to work on their technical skills to someone who is "perfectly" trained but lacks originality. But that's me...there is a place for everyone. 7. Who determines the price of artwork at an art gallery? What is the industry standard percentage/proportion that an art gallery receives from the sale of an artist's work? Typically we work with an artist prior to solo exhibitions to iron out pricing. There are many factors that can be taken into account when pricing art. Most galleries in the city charge between 20% and 65% commission on the sale of your work ... we take nothing! 8. Given today's artists have the ability to directly market to buyers, how relevant is it today to show at a gallery or be represented by an art agent? I think that showing in a gallery is always relevant! Again, it gives prospective buyers an opportunity to see your work in real life and it is never the same experience as seeing it online. Also as I previously mentioned there are many opportunities that come as a result of exhibiting, connections to industry professionals who can help further your career, introduction to future buyers and collectors, commission opportunities, brand partnerships, meeting other artists. You can always get your feet wet with group shows exhibiting one or two pieces at a time. This can give you an opportunity to see how buyers react to your work and decide which galleries you prefer working with. I am not for or against the idea of an agent...I would caution an emerging artist to really do their research before signing on to a representation deal exclusively whether it's a gallery or an agent as there are a lot of people out there looking to sell you the dream and take advantage. I would not want to be paying my agent a commission on top of paying the gallery they are putting my work in a commission ... it all adds up fast and before you know it you're left with nothing after your time and supplies etc. It's like that band who signs the record deal right away because they are excited but now that label owns them and they're still broke. But certain deals are worth making, just do your research. 9. What would be your advice for an aspiring paper flower artist? Own your craft! It is an art and just as worthy of being shown in any place your heart desires to see it . Put yourself out there and don't be afraid to hear no. Also, make it your own. What sets your paper florals apart? 10. Is there anything else you'd like to share with our listeners? Yes, we have actually started our own podcast called Creativity Unleashed where we invite you to reconnect and explore the multi-layered chasms of creativity that exist within each of us. We will also introduce you to our network of artists and industry professionals as we explore creativity as a state of mind rather than a talent you're born with. Here you will find guided meditations, insightful conversations, and evocative tools to help you unleash your full potential... because when we live life from a place of creative thinking, the opportunities are endless.

Our guest today has been a close friend and a key member of my support system since my early days of living in New York City. Brian Maloney is here. Brian is more than just a friend. He is a mentor, an entrepreneur, a loving dad, brother and husband. He recently made a brilliant career pivot from high profile positions in brand marketing and public relations to becoming the owner of his own Brooklyn art gallery called CUSP NYC.

His modus operandi is Creativity Unleashed to Solve Problems, which is how he came up with the name CUSP for his gallery here in Brooklyn. Later this month CUSP will be featuring 12 female artists in an exhibit called MAKE ROOM. All the artists use uncommon techniques or a unique process to transform traditional media. Maybe I’ll see you there! Visit www.cusp-nyc.com Up next…Hear Brian Maloney on his money philosophy, growing up in the Midwest and flipping burgers at Burger King. You gotta start somewhere!
