90: Unfolding Creativity: The Art of Lifting with Paper Artist Andrew Wong

Mike continues with cats in watercolor and acrylic. Andrew Wong (10past9) joins the podcast to discuss his creative journey from fashion design to paper artist. Andrew talks about how curiosity and persistence led him to a process he now calls lifting. His exploration of digital work and portraiture has allowed him to focus on skills he can use in a process he calls “lifting”. Andrew’s work seeks to highlight and celebrate the beauty of his culture and heritage and others who fill under or misrepresented. Andrew provides two pieces of homework that may help lift your creative abilities.  WillJBailey Shop Tiger work in progress shot Amur leopard Hong Kong Parsons Dolce & Gabbana Ecko Spirited Away Low poly art Paper quilling Mod podge glue Clubhouse Medicine ship Carousel Jordan Blender Dontae - @Iamdmuse Vero and Noonlight studio ”Masks” at Above Art Studios ===== How to reach Andrew Wong ===== Instagram - @10past9 Web site - 10past9.com Twitter - @10past9 ===== How to reach Mike Hendley ===== MikeHendley.com  Instagram @Mike_Hendley  Twitter @MikeHendley Mike’s drawing kit  Show notes at DrawingInspiration.fm ===== Support the Podcast ===== Support "Drawing Connections" on Substack Buy Me a Paintbrush if you like the show or my work Rate and Review on Apple Podcasts Etchr Lab use the code ‘mikeh’ for 10% off Art Toolkit discount code (10% off using code MHDRAWS10 which is valid until December 31, 2022) Podcast theme music is “Acid Jazz” By Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
