S14E7 – Jess Goldsmith
from Hi-Res Hosted by Ryan Starr
Jess Goldsmith is an illustrator and lettering artist born and bred in NYC. Her work is colorful, and fun and invokes the sense of humor and playfulness that she's known for. She has created work for Adobe, Hulu, Microsoft, Pinterest, Amazon, and more. She is also the owner, curator, and author of Women of Type, a community that exists to amplify the work of women and nonbinary creatives in the lettering and type industry. Women of Type serves as a hub for members to share their work, find artists to connect with, and provide paid opportunities for those starting out in the industry. The Women of Type Book is available worldwide and showcases the work of over 130 artists from 20+ countries, spanning 5 continents as a creative collaboration to celebrate letters, colors, and the power of the written word. Jess joins the show to discuss how she "accidentally" created this community, the responsiblity of curating the channel and the importance of practicing an artistic discipline you don't get paid for.
