  • Today weā€™re talking about money, and sharing the multitude of ways we make money as illustrators and creatives. For most of us itā€™s not possible to ā€œmake itā€ by doing just one thing, which is why itā€™s good to have several income streams to make enough income to get by. We also talk about the kinds of creative work we do that doesnā€™t pay, and why that can be important too!

  • One of our most asked questions on this podcast is where we get our inspiration, so we decided to treat you with a whole episode where we answer that question. And not just that! We also get deep about what we think inspiration even is, how it feels to be inspired, and how important we think inspiration is (or isnā€™t) for creativity.

  • Making friends as adults is hard, isnā€™t it? In this episode we share our experiences with friendship, remember both happy and sad friend stories, analyze what kind of friends we are and wonder what it is about friendships in adulthood that makes them both extremely meaningful and so challenging to initiate.

  • In this podcast we draw and talk about illustration, but weā€™re not just illustrators! In this episode we wanted to talk about all the other fun parts of our lives. This year has been very different and we havenā€™t been able to enjoy a lot of our favorite things. So if youā€™re feeling out of touch with your life at the moment (which, same!), we recommend doing what we did and listing all the fun things you are. It gave us both a fresh perspective and it felt so nice to talk about all the things we enjoy doing.

  • Weā€™re probably all familiar with art block - none of us can be creative all the time! But when youā€™re in the depths of it, it can feel impossible to get out and feel creative again. Finding that joy of creating can be a challenge, but like all of life, there are ups and downs. In this episode, we talk about times in our own lives of not being able to create, and share strategies that have worked for us in finding the joy of making art again. Because maybe that joy is more important than being productive?

  • In todayā€™s episode, we share what we know about selling art online. We talk about different platforms where you can sell your art, some ways to get your products made, and all the hats you have to wear as an online shop owner! We also share our experience as online shop owners, and what has and hasnā€™t worked for us. Starting to sell your art online can be daunting, but the main point we want to make is: if youā€™re thinking of selling your art online, DO IT!

  • Today we have another topic suggested by you friends: social media! We talk about how we use social media to share our art and our lives, what strategies we have found helpful, and how we get inspired by other artists. We also share our thoughts around the pressure that comes with putting yourself and your art out there, as well as feeling overwhelmed from so much good art on our feeds.

  • Today weā€™re talking about a topic suggested by you, our listeners, and itā€™s veganism! We are both very passionate about being vegan and could talk about it forever, so this oneā€™s a super-size episode. We share how each of us became vegan, how our experience with veganism has been (the good and the bad), and how funny and silly some comments we have gotten over the years are. And of course enthuse about our fave vegan treats! Have we said the word ā€œveganā€ enough?

    Welcome to the club, friends!

  • This weekā€™s episode has been pre-recorded, so we did not have a chance to express our solidarity with the protests currently happening in the US and globally following George Floydā€™s murder. As white people we feel itā€™s important to not stay silent. Instead we need to educate ourselves and each other and actively support black communities, and we would like to encourage you friends to do that too. We have shared some resources in our instagram stories on how you can help, and they will be saved in highlights. Also this article is a good resource: https://www.thecut.com/2020/06/george-floyd-protests-how-to-help-where-to-donate.html

    Today's episode is a continuation from last week, so if you havenā€™t listened to episode 5, be sure to do that first! We chat with illustrator and creative-all-arounder Apila Pepita about covering feminist and LGBTQ+ topics in personal art and how that can influence your creative career. We also share our heartwarming pet stories! 

    Follow Apila on instagram @apilapepita and on twitter @apilapepita . Also visit Apila's tattoo account on instagram @apilatattoo .

    We also have a few announcements. 

    Due to the current situation with the pandemic and having to isolate, we are unfortunately not able to meet and record video episodes, so for the time being we will do it in audio-only format. We are recording in our own homes with separate setups, so the sound quality is going to be a bit different for the two of us, since we are talking to each other on video call. Please bear with us as we make it work given the current situation. We will return to filming video episodes as soon as we can meet in person again.

  • OMG what is my drawing style?? One of the most frequent questions we get asked is how to find your own illustration style. This week we attempted to answer this question, as well as talked about our own drawing styles and how theyā€™ve changed over time. That got us wondering: how important is having a style, anyway??

    Welcome to the club, friends!

  • You friends wanted a Harry Potter episode and we delivered! And to make it even more special we added another potterhead to the mix: illustrator, designer, maker and our friend Valentina Lachner. Find out whether the sorting hat sorted us in the correct Hogwarts houses, who our favorite characters are, and what Hogwarts subjects weā€™d be good at. And if you are not a Harry Potter fan, prepare to be very confused!

    Visit Valentina's instagram @slushybrain and Etsy shop Studio Slushybrain !

    We also have a few announcements. 

    Due to the current situation with the pandemic and having to isolate, we are unfortunately not able to meet and record video episodes, so for the time being we will do it in audio-only format. We are recording in our own homes with separate setups, so the sound quality is going to be a bit different for the two of us, since we are talking to each other on video call. Please bear with us as we make it work given the current situation. We will return to filming video episodes as soon as we can meet in person again.

    Welcome to the club, friends!

  • The pressure to be productive is real! In this episode, we share our own experiences with productivity, and wonder whether the demand to be as productive as possible is actually bs. This period of self-isolation has allowed a lot of people to re-think their priorities, including how they spend their time. Is there more to life than productivity? (hint: YES!)

    Welcome to the club, friends!

  • Weā€™re back! Our second season starts with a current topic and something both of us have struggled with: How to stay creative in these strange times of social isolation. It hasnā€™t been easy, friends! We talk about our own experiences from the past few weeks, and share some ways that have helped us stay creative.

    We also have a few announcements.
