Host Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle/Olomidara Yaya processes the Breonna Taylor news and discusses being in the midst of grieving, healing, and envisioning a new future amidst mercury in retrograde. From discussing the problematics with perception due to Liquitex's Portrait Pink to discussing Dennis Billops, a visually impaired activist who predicts the colors of her recent work, Hinkle/Yaya examines ways of seeing and unseeing. She also reads an excerpt from the second book of the Famished Road Trilogy, Songs of Enchantment by Ben Okri, published by Jonathan Cape Limited, 1993. The book features a passage that discusses the main character Azaro, living in the midst of political upheaval from the point of view of a mascarade that represents the Party of the Rich. Hinkle/Yaya discusses the difficulty of trying to envision the future in the midst of current events and the chaos that this moment in the historical present is collectively and individually showing us. She asks, "What is the legacy that you want to leave behind as a creative?"

Welcome to part two of a ~sober~ art chat (Stephanie was still working to get over her sinus infection). Cam and Steph DID have Starbucks, however! (not sponsored) Also, apologies for the particularly loud noises that Cam’s neighbors were making. Maybe they just really want to be on the show in some way or something, who knows. In this episode, Stephanie and Cam talk about some of their favorite brands of art supplies, some they don’t love, and everything in between. A few brands they discuss are: Crayola, Rose Art, Faber-Castell, Reeves, Cotman watercolors by W & N (Wizard Newman—just kidding—Windsor Newton), Golden, Sennelier, Daniel Smith, Liquitex, Copic, Prismacolor, NuPastel, and Gelli Plates. Plus, they answer some art supply related FAQs like: is it possible to get good supplies on a budget, and why are they so dang expensive? Can you mix oils with acrylics? Is there any way to seal watercolors and markers? Music by Jonathan Stutz: http://stutzmusic.bandcamp.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/drunk-art-chat/support
How I Broke Into: Michael Prywes Interviews Artists and Entrepreneurs About Their Big Break
Nelson Ruger grew up along the beaches of southern New Jersey, finding his stomping grounds among Ocean City’s 7th Street and North Street beaches and boardwalks. Loving art from an early age, he dove into a career as a theatrical artist, designing scenery and lighting for stage productions up and down the eastern United States, lending his creative style from tiny one-room shows to huge regional theaters. In 1998, he fulfilled his dream of designing on Broadway. With this life goal achieved so young, Nelson began searching for new horizons and artistic possibilities. Nelson eventually left the theatre industry to pursue his surf painting and zen watercolor art. He formed the ‘Nelson Makes Art!’ Studio in Virginia, where he spent several happy years developing commissioned pieces in his flip-flops. ‘Nelson Makes Art!’ then led him far far west to the opposite coast of sunny Los Angeles. As Creative Director at RGH Themed Entertainment, Nelson worked with a diverse team of artists across many disciplines, designing theme parks and attractions around the world. In 2014, Nelson discovered a passion uniting two of his favorite things - painting, and tropical beverages. This led him to his most exciting works to date - the Huli Pau Glassware series - painted glassware featuring the beautiful waves of oceans from around the world. He's the guy who believes you deserve to live the life you've always wanted. And he's gonna do everything he can to help get you there. Notes from the show: He didn't like the "drama" offstage of theatre. He went to work for Apple. He was invited to build a theme park in Los Angeles. He opened an Etsy store.

Today’s Fan mail Friday question is from Noah from New York. He writes in and asks, “I have been painting for a few years and recently have sold my work at some outdoor shows. I sold a painting the other day and the customer asked me if he can pick up the painting after I finish it and varnish it. I have never been asked this question before and was taken back by this because I don’t varnish my art and I never have. I am I supposed to be doing this on my canvases, I paint in acrylics waterbed paint. Thank you for your time." I am so glad that Noah asked this question, I have had this conversation with several artists in the past and believe it or not, not all artists seal their work. I certainly wanted to address this valued question here on the podcast so that others can benefit from it as well. This is a decision that is entirely up to the artist, unless you are working to achieve a specific high tech looks with heavy polyurethanes to lacquers. Use a varnish or sealer that is waterbed and will work well with other acrylic applications. Using a sealer will also help with achieving a consistent smooth look. The point of preserving your work for years to come is essential for the art and your reputation as an artist and it will benefit more ways that one. Always test a swatch on a piece of mat bored or heavy paper to see how well the mediums will reach or compliment your paints. Reference: Liquitex, http://liquitex.com Golden Brand Paints http://www.goldenpaints.com Nove Color Paints: http://www.novacolorpaint.com Many thanks to Noah for this valued question today. I want to point out also that if you do not intend to varnish or protect your artwork, keep true to yourself. There is nothing that say that you have to do this, but as an artist that also collects others works, I highly recommend that you at the very least explore some of these finishes.
