LIA Cast 157 - Art Events and Scenes, with Becca Hillburn (Rebroadcast)

A common thread through many Lean Into Art Casts is advocating for your art in addition to making it. But how do you find the places or events where you can be of service? If you can’t find the places to be of service, how do you create an event of your own?

Rob and Jerzy are joined by Becca Hillburn for an exploration of finding your place in an art scene or making one on your own.

LIA Cast 237 - Collaborating on Projects, with Zack Giallongo

How well do you work with others? How do you know whether the contributions you bring to a project enhance it or cause friction? How do you negotiate to bring out the best in one another? When is it time to argue, and when is it time to let your collaborator take the lead?

Zack Giallongo fills in for Rob this week to talk about a project he’s teamed up with Jerzy on--a new mini-comic called Dinosword. Together they explore how their partnership works and what it’s taught them about working with others.

LIA Cast 236 - Creative Marathons

Big projects and deep learning usually require chipping and experimentation--which means long-term investment, and sometimes, an experience of trickling small gains.

This time Jerzy and Rob look at Creative Marathons in order to ship a thing, put a big dent in a project, or take a deep dive into learning new skills. Does such an endeavor run against the grains of self-care? How can one sustainably engage with this?

LIA Cast 234 - Being a Student Again

Striving to refine and grow our skill sets is often the focus of any creative journey. This week on the Lean Into Art Cast, Jerzy and Rob look in the other direction and celebrate the earlier stages of a creative endeavor, full of ambiguity and uncertainty--being a beginner.

In this episode we set out to answer the question: when should one self-teach, and when is it time to take a class?
