Welcome to the Open Studio, a place for fellow artists, makers, photographers and creatives of all kinds to come and meet once a month, discuss problems, ask advice and share successes
This post is primarily for paid subscribers, you can read this overview and watch the first few minutes of the call for free, but the full video, resources, links, personal replies and access to future Live Calls are behind the paywall.
If you’d like to join the conversation, please upgrade here and you’ll be sent the links to sign-up to future calls (I set the dates for these a month in advance). Places will be limited to 10 on the live call, and you’ll always get access to the full call replay and our private chat group.
Just one of the things I love about these chats is you never really know where the conversation will turn, we talked about everything from my recent Substack Workshop for The Design Trust, you can still purchase it here, it’s onsale until 17th July and you get instant access to it until November and I’ll be popping onto their platform and answering any questions between now and July 17th.
We discussed Live illustration vs. graphic recording, we had a lot of praise for all the Goodship Illustration Courses.
let me know if you ever start an affiliate scheme 😁We went on to subjects as diverse as pros/cons of competitions and awards to what is really worth investing in as a creative business owner (apart from sketchbooks, obviously!)
Today I was joined by Jo (a different one), Zoe, Raj & Kirsty, some of whom are on Substack too. I’ve posted a link to all their latest posts for you here:
Lastly, before I forget, I interviewed Kirsty for my Artist Interview series, it’s absolutely fabulous, if you’ve not already seen it (it came out today) do check it out…
Upgrade to watch the whole replay and join the next session;
