LIA Cast 59 - On Finishing and Triage - Lean Into Art - Art Center for Visual Storytellers

Top

You are dedicated to your craft. You have spent countless hours honing your skills. You have a boundless curiosity for the underlying theories and structure of communicating ideas. You are the artist who finds the connections between your medium and other communications media. You are the artist who relishes in a setback; after all, it's a new opportunity to learn and grow. Inspiration is more than a haphazard mode of thought requiring constant nurturing: it is your natural state of mind.

Lean Into Art is where you go when you're ready to push yourself as an artist in new ways. As a place to learn communication arts online it combines an art-journaling approach, the best of live and time-shifted classes, and a recognition system that encourages students to finish projects, give feedback, even participate in teaching.

It's a big art challenge - that's why we put the enticing warning in the name. You have to lean into it.

LIA Cast 59 - On Finishing and Triage

Thursday, October 25, 2012 at 1:10PM

This week we take on the topic of Finishing, using Rob's recent experience at 24 Hour Comics Day as a microcosm of the life cycle of a creative project. How do you create your Finishing Machine, and when do you know whether or not you've created a Failure Machine?

We respond to a couple of Leaner emails, first from Dee Juusan who offers us an answer to a curveball we proposed in an earlier episode. Then we further develop our thoughts on Finishing based on some thoughts sent to us by Brian Taylor.
