Episode 20: Creating Habits

Author: Creative Type Podcast May 23, 2023 Duration: 26:49
Creating daily, weekly or even monthly habits are helpful in any art business. Jaime and Lori talk about their good habits and bad ones in this podcast.

Ever find yourself in the studio wondering if other artists are wrestling with the same doubts, creative blocks, or small victories? That’s the space where Creative Type Podcast: Conversations for visual artists and art lovers lives. Co-hosts Jaime Haney and Lori Rivera built this audio gathering specifically for those who make and appreciate visual art, focusing on the authentic, unvarnished reality of the artistic path. Their discussions move beyond technique to touch on the isolation that can accompany the work, as well as the profound joy found in a shared community. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair in a friendly studio, listening to a conversation that’s equally supportive and amusing. You’ll hear honest reflections on navigating the business side of art, maintaining motivation, and finding your unique voice, all without pretense. This podcast serves as a regular reminder that you’re not working in a vacuum, whether you’re a seasoned painter, a digital illustrator, or simply someone who loves to see how art gets made. It’s about the whole picture-the good, the bad, and the ugly-discussed with warmth and a genuine understanding of the creative life. Tune in for a sense of connection and a candid look at what it really means to be a visual artist today.
