IN THIS EPISODE ::

In 2009, I learned more about art than perhaps any other year of my life.

I met and received critiques from most of my living art heroes and I explored and struggled with some very specific stylistic choices, attempting to be as critical of my own work as possible.

One of my current pursuits is to produce a series of environment drawings with a gestural feel.  I explain this concept in detail in the episode.

I also give a little teaser about some of the things I have in store for The ArtCast in 2010.

IN THIS EPISODE ::

My wife and dog and I traveled to Portland, Oregon for the holidays.  It was awesome.

During my trip to that awesome city, I was able to meet my awesome friends Kevin Cross and Josh Kemble (illustrators and hosts of Big Illustration Party Time) and an awesome artist whose work (and blog) I have long-admired, Ward Jenkins.

I recorded an awesome conversation between the four of us about our failures, victories and lessons of 2009.  We also went on a couple of awesome tangents: one about professionalism and one about Ward’s new children’s book and his illustration technique.
