LIA Cast 182 - Finding Your Style

When you think of art style, what comes to mind? Is it the kinds of lines you use? The color palette? The compositions? Should the style be the creative restriction of a project, or should the project dictate the style? And if the old saying is true: “your style is what you do wrong,” is there any point in striving to find a style?

Join us for a discussion on how we’ve thought about art style throughout our careers and how the constraints of bandwidth, resources, and projects have affected them.

Brandon Dayton has been exploring a variety of visual storytelling topics in his YouTube essay series, ranging from advanced illustration training techniques to why everyone should learn to draw. What makes his essays especially useful is in how he frames some classic (and hard won) wisdom to shine a light on the benefits art training provides to nearly every aspect of living.

This week on Rob and Jerzy invite Brandon on the show for a discussion on leveling up your art and how it can bring positive change to the other aspects of your life.
