It's time to rest and reflect! Today I thought I'd take a moment to share my goals for the upcoming year, but also keep it low-pressure...

Is it wrong or selfish to keep making art when others are suffering? (Spoiler: the answer is no!) In today's episode, I just wanted to encourage you to keep making art, because it's so essential to us all. I'm also curious...what are your thoughts about Patreon, in light of some of their changes??

All artists experience disappointment with their work, but what can you do when you really, *really* don't like it?! Hopefully I can offer some helpful advice on the subject today...

AI images aren’t really art, but does that mean they can’t be used in the artistic process? Today I’m sharing several of my scattered thoughts in general on AI “art” …let’s see if I can make any sense!?!?

Welcome to the first episode of Leanne’s Little Art Chats!!  This is probably—hopefully?—the most rambling one, too.  (What I’m saying is, I’ll plan out future episodes a little better.) In this very first episode, I’m introducing myself, talking about what I plan on doing with this podcast, and share one of my essays on why your sketchbook does NOT have to be perfect or even beautiful.  If you’re an artist who finds it difficult to keep a sketchbook because you don’t think your sketches are “good enough,” this is for you! Essay from the video “your sketchbook SHOULD be messy, not ‘aesthetic’…a message to anyone paralyzed by perfectionism”: https://youtu.be/4WrkDSzNpNg My YouTube channel:  https://youtube.com/@leannedelux My official blog /website: https://leanne.studio Say “hi” on Instagram! https://instagram.com/leannedelux …or on Facebook: https://facebook.com/leannedelux ...also, TikTok! https://tiktok.com/@leannedelux

We can be a little too hard on ourselves as artists, especially when things aren’t going as we’d planned…we may know certain truths, but we may struggle believing them.  In this episode, I hope to share a few reminders with you to encourage you in your creative practice.

In this episode, I’m talking about what it really takes to be a real artist…really!! I’m also sharing an inspiring artist and a creative practice I’ve been implementing lately.
