Note taking can help with gathering our thoughts and set us up to build upon ideas. Join us in this note taking and note using infused episode of the Lean Into Art podcast. Jerzy and Rob will discuss how we each make use of notes with physical tools, digital tools, and how this note taking helps with creating and collaborating on projects. This topic was inspired by #artsoundoff journal podcaster Owen Jollands in a recent episode of his journal. Art Soundoff 2020, a creative challenge to celebrate micro podcast journaling is underway, learn more about it at http://artsoundoff.com.

A recurring theme on the Lean Into Art Cast is the symbiotic relationship between the creative work you do and advocating for it (and yourself). How is your creative work affected when you go out and participate in panels, workshops, or other public events? How can advocating for others benefit your own work? How do you balance these separate careers? Jerzy and Rob are joined by teaching artist Alex Simmons, co-founder of the Kids’ Comic Con and co-host of the Tell The Damn Story podcast for a discussion on navigating the balance of making art and advocating for it.

Talking about inking on the Lean Into Art Cast! We all know by now that there are no “right” tools for drawing. But how do you begin an investigation into which tools to use? How do you interview the tool for the job you want it to do? On that topic, how do you define the tool’s job description? Join us for an exploration of various inking tools we have used and continued to use in our illustration and comics work. We’ll hold live demos for as many of the inking tools as time allows.

Talking about improving your visual memory on the LIA Cast with Brandon Dayton! Have you ever noticed that sometimes the best drawings you make are the ones for which you have a very clear mental picture? Have you ever tried to draw something from reference materials and just can't accurately capture it? Is the first situation simply a moment of "inspiration," and the second situation "artistic funk"? How might things change if we consider the difference between seeing and object and perceiving an object? By improving our visual memory skills, might we one day be able to draw entirely from memory like Kim Jun gi? This time we have a discussion on the role of perception in illustration with guest Brandon Dayton, who shares some tips on how to improve your visual memory and draw with improved accuracy.

In this episode of the Lean Into Art Cast, Jerzy and Rob explore warming up visually for generating ideas. We’ll walk through and practice, a generative approach that’s a bit of prompting and bit of randomness that works both solo and in groups. Then we’ll explore more about the why, when, and how of this sort of generative practice exercise.
