Failing at Art Education
49m · PublishedIn episode two we’re talking about art education. Julie studied Visual Arts at University and Phoebe is largely self taught from online courses. We discussed how we both felt we’d failed in some ways with our choices, and what we learnt. Julie talks about what she regrets regarding her decision to go to art school and what she saw as being the biggest things she got out of it, and Phoebe discusses her feelings around not going to art school and how she found the online courses that she did instead.

- creative visionary program
- Laura horn podcast and courses
- ArtJuice podcast

Failing to find a style
46m · PublishedIt's episode 1 of Fail Like An Artist! In today's episode, we are discussing the juicy and elusive topic of “finding your style” - Is it something you need to search for? Are you born with one? Is it ok for it to change? What's the difference between style and genre?? Julie chats about when she felt called to bring in a completely different subject matter, and how that affected her style and made her worry galleries would reject her. And Phoebe talks about her journey of trying many different types and styles of art from resin to still life and everything in between… and how led her to feel like a failure for not being able to stick at one. Then we share how we have ‘not failed’ - the things we have learnt and where we are at now.
We move on to sharing a funny listener fails from the following artists:
