Hey y'all just a quick heads up the episode you're about to listen to is 8 to 10 years old

now these episodes were intended to be evergreen and I still believe there's a lot of good

information in these early episodes, but I do want to let you know that some of my ideas have evolved

over time. Times have changed since we made these episodes and ultimately I'd like to think I've grown

a lot as an artist and a human and that these don't necessarily represent my best work or the best of the podcast.

If you're new around here, I suggest starting with the most recent episode or

at least go back to around 300 and move forward from there.

Enjoy the episode. You're going to the creative pep talk podcast. This show is about commercial art,

striking the balance between making a good living and making great art. I'm your

host Andy, Jay, Pizza, and I'm here to bring you some pap to your step and let's do a wrap of a few

creative exercises.

I don't know.
