Herzlich Willkommen zurück im Literaturkreis des Spectral Radio. Heute besprechen eure Lieblingskritiker Timo und Denny den ersten Sammelband der IDW Comicreihe von Dan Schoening und Erik Burnham: "The Man From The Mirror". Ausserdem in den News: Dan Aykroyd war zu Gast im "WTF" Podcast von Marc Maron, Arjen Tuiten präsentiert eine besondere Büste bei Instagram und Columbia Pictures sendet ein Zeichen der Hoffnung.

Nick Runge grew up in Colorado. Coming from a creative family of professional artists, he was always interested in drawing and imagining ideas visually. After working as an illustrator full time from 2004-2015 he shifted focus to more personal work using oils and watercolor. As a portrait/figurative painter, Nick works from life as well as photography, describing his art as something close to “abstracted realism”, with an objective of expressing as much of the realistic human element of life as possible through a limited and often simplified approach to his rendering or brushwork, giving an illusion of realism while, at the same time, breaking shapes and form down enough to have a close balance with abstraction. Full shownotes: http://yourcreativepush.com/335 In this episode, Nick discusses: -Why he came back to drawing and painting. -Balancing personal work vs. client/commission work. -Finding a love for painting with oils and watercolor. -The experience of making the movie poster for “The Death of Superman Lives.” -His advice to become obsessed with things that you enjoy doing. -His advice for selling your work on social media without feeling slimey. -What a typical day looks like for him. -The fear of showing old work or failures. -Getting past ruts. -The power of secret sketchbooks. -Putting aside your five favorite pieces of art to open your mind to making new “favorites.” -Dealing with shyness. Nick's Final Push will inspire you to be impulsive and get moving this very second!   Quotes: “You have to hold that initial excitement for art like a fuel through all of the tough times.” “Drawing has felt like I’ve been cheating on normal life.  That’s why I love it.  It seems forbidden -- especially in America – to draw or create.  It’s seems great, but how do you make money at it?” “If you find a specific painting or a subject matter that you really do just enjoy, maybe just obsess over it a little bit more.” “I find that any time I think ‘I need money right now so I’m going to paint this thing,’ it almost never works.” “If you want to paint or draw, do just a little bit every day and it really will get to be more of an addiction.” Links mentioned: “Start” – Nick's piece that was unfinished Marie-Noelle Wurm on Your Creative Push Ep. 320 Watercolor Workshop in Seville Spain (May 16-19 2019) NOH/WAVE course Alatar on Your Creative Push Ep. 232 Alatar on Your Creative Push Ep. 296 Connect with Nick: Website / Shop / Instagram On the next episode: Alatar : Newgrounds / Podcast / Instagram Join the discussion in the Facebook group!

Born in 1985, artist Nick Runge grew up in Colorado. Coming from a creative family of professional artists, he was always interested in drawing and imagining ideas visually. Starting in 2004, he began thinking about art as a career and got the chance to begin small jobs in and out of the comic book industry. After 2006, he worked as an illustrator for various comic companies such as IDW, Dark Horse, and many others. While primarily making a living as a cover artist, he began painting more seriously and started exploring the world of film art and traditionally painted projects, doing various official and private commissions. These days he has stepped away from commercial properties, focusing exclusively on fine art and personal work using oils and watercolor. As a portrait/figurative painter, Nick works from life as well as photography, describing his art as something close to “abstracted realism”, with an objective of expressing as much of the realistic human element of life as possible through a limited and often simplified approach to his rendering or brushwork, giving an illusion of realism while, at the same time, breaking shapes and form down enough to have a close balance with abstraction. Topics Discussed In This Episode: The reasons why he began his career as an artist in illustration Making the transition from being a professional illustrator to being a fine artist Steven Pressfield’s book, “The War of Art” Creating mental devices to help you clearly navigate though your career His experiences working in the comic book industry Commercial viability of analog and digital artworks Pitfalls of the American educational system The financial realities of being a working artist Art and design existing everywhere How the arts are supported and unsupported in America Francis Ford Coppola’s film “Apocalypse Now” The movie poster that Runge was commissioned to illustrate for the documentary, “The Death of Superman Lives” Ideologies about tribes and community AI creating artworks NOH/WAVE Art collectives www.artistdecoded.com www.nohwaveacademy.com/nick-runge (ADRUNGE25 @ Checkout For $25 Off)
