As we’ve often said on this podcast, visual storytelling can be a lonely business. So how do you reach out to friends to get some feedback on a work in progress? What do we look for in a critique?
Join Jerzy and Rob for a critique modeling exercise, followed by some thinking about how, why, and what good critiques are for.

Providing workshops, interactive talks, and learning experiences is something both Jerzy and Rob enjoy and care a lot about. We know lots of you Leaners do too. Every week on the show we mention online classes we sell and once in a while we add to that list - recently Rob embarked on a creative challenge at Skillshare to make a class and publish it there.
Join Jerzy and Rob for a conversation about that experience making Drawing User Journey Maps to Design User Experiences, Gather Ideas, and Collaborate. What’s it like making a new class in the approach of Skillshare and partaking in their monthly Teach Challenge? How do you choose a topic? What about producing and editing, promoting and all that other work after the class is ready to publish?

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.

It’s been a while since we checked in on the things we’ve been exploring and enjoying that help us recharge. Jerzy and Rob have a discussion on what they’re reading, watching, and playing.

We have beliefs and ideas that drive things we currently make or at least things we want to make. At some point you can find yourself with a mission. Now what do you do? How do you make your case and share it with the world, recruiting and being recruited based on your mission.
Join Rob and Jerzy for a discussion on why we find making a case for your mission useful and some times we’ve tried just that.
