Podcast Episode 15 - We got style

Saturday, October 23, 2010


One of our fan's sent us an email and it really got us thinking.  So today's episode has the gang discussing, arguing, musing and pining about artistic style.  Tune in to see how much Aaron Miller has to say on the subject (he has been saving up for this one) and with the information in this podcast you may be able to figure out who did all those cave paintings...
As always, feel free to listen or subscribe on iTunes.  If you don't, they send someone to our houses and beat us...

Artdepth sketch night @ Evil Olive

Friday, October 22, 2010
I went to the Artdepth sketch night at Evil Olive down the street from my studio last night. On Tuesday nights I have a figure drawing session at the studio from 7-9:30pm. The Artdepth event started at 10pm. The cool things was that we were providing our drawing horses for them to use and our model was also scheduled to model there that night. Everything went really smooth.
The event was really well run. The models were dressed to play out Nursery Rhymes, the late night kind. The costumes just made the event that much more fun. While we were drawing in the front of the house there was a photo studio set up in the back for some photographers. I had planned to paint in oils but knowing this would be in a dark bar with multiple models I had a feeling the timing would not lend itself to painting and keeping things clean in someone else’s business. I decided to go with the moleskin sketchbook and some watercolor pencils. They worked out perfect for the event. The models came out in groups of two to five. And the times ranged from 10 minutes to 30.
It gave me some good ideas to possibly do with my own workshop once time permits. Here are some of the drawings I did that night;

Drawn Today Podcast 14

Tuesday, October 12, 2010


On today's episode, blog members Allen Douglas, Madeline Carol Matz, Kim Kincaid and Mark Harchar discuss the 800 pound gorilla in every artist's room...how to use color.  Join us as we muse about color palettes, color in movies and TV and painting the cat (honestly, it isn't a metaphor).
And when you are done listening, click on the link on the bottom left of the blog to checkout Aaron Miller's blog on artist's palettes.

And for all those listeners that tune in from iTunes, feel free to post a review of the podcast.  For every review, we get a nice shiny nickel (no, not really).
