He started off life going in a "sensible" direction, focussing on a trade, where he learned about engineering, metal working and fabrication. Progressing far within that line of work, he longed to express his creativity. He always had a passion for art and an interest in the natural world. His background ultimately served his creative pursuit of lost wax bronze, where he captures the essence of New Zealand birds in his stunning sculptures. Mike is a very good friend of mine, but he's also the only artist I have, and probably could share a studio with. If I turned the camera 180, you'd actually see his studio space, in many of my YouTube videos. We shared this space back in 2018-2020 and now he's back for round two! We're excited to be working together once again and looking forward to collaborating on some sculptural projects. Back to Mike - he had taken a brief hiatus from sculpting, to get into model-making. I must admit, I didn't understand this direction, but I have a new found appreciation for it, after I have seen the level he's got to with it. Here in New Zealand he's knocking out the competition as he cleans up, from show to show! We had a great chat her about art and life. It's a pleasure to share this with you. I hope you enjoy!

This week I talk with Joe Paquet about his inspiration, plein air painting, how to find your stride as an artist, AI, the dangers of social media and the "Authenticity" trap and more! Joe is an authority when it comes to the "prismatic palette" and Plein Air painting techniques, but his approach goes beyond the technical. Joe is unashamedly himself, sharing with others what he truly believes, always in a spirit of service and a genuine love for people and desire to help others improve their art, by focussing on what's important. I always get so much out of talking with Joe Paquet. On this occasion, my second podcast with Joe, we also discuss ways to disconnect from the noise of the outside world and reconnect with what's truly important, finding work we enjoy and celebrating what we LOVE with our art.

In this EPISODE: Andrew Tischler talks with Kenneth Yarus. Based in Montana, Kenneth has been painting and drawing from a young age. He showed promise and dedication for his art from the beginning in his school days and met key figures and mentors that left a lasting impact on him. The lessons he's learned he carries to this day as he produces incredible, monumental paintings, reminiscent of the Hudson River School. In this conversation both Kenneth and Andrew reflect on working with galleries and representation and how to face a changing world, with paradigm shifts happening continually, such as A.I. and the impact this will have on artists.    Check out Kenneth Yarus on his Website: www.kennethyarus.com and on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kennethyarus/  

Virgil Elliott knows traditional oil painting, in fact, he wrote the book on it! It was a few years ago that I stumbled upon his book "Traditional Oil Painting" and read through, I quickly realised that there were many things I didn't know about my own profession; in fact there were many things I was doing in the studio that were causing irreversible harm to the paintings I had painstakingly crafted. Reading Virgil's book, and then joining the private Facebook page by the same name, represented a paradigm shift in my work. Virgil's teachings fundamentally changed the way I approach painting. In this conversation I wanted to revisit some of the themes we discussed way back in episode 2, when we spoke last, and pick up where we left off. This episode is one to keep coming back to: have a notebook handy!

You may remember Thomas from earlier episodes of The Creative Endeavour. I just had to get him back on the podcast, not only to hear what he's been up to over the last year, but to discuss an incredibly interesting book that ought to be on your radar: "The Billion Dollar Painter" by Eric Kuskey. This book focused on the life of Thomas Kincade and as Fluharty puts it: "it's a story from rags to riches to ruin." We reflect on the incredible life and career trajectory of this often misunderstood artist and some of the lessons therein. This was a super inspiring chat, not to be missed!

Anthony Avon is a digital artist from Serbia. His creative journey didn't get off to an easy start. Initially Anthony struggled and felt like things were a bit hopeless and opportunities weren't forthcoming in his homeland. Anthony received a break, a stranger out of the blue noticed Anthony's situation and this led to an opportunity that would change his life forever. That was 11 years ago, now Anthony works full time as a digital painter/illustrator and recently celebrated receiving a massive gig with a household name company that featured his graphics. This conversation was an inspiring one, ultimately about triumph over struggle and being grateful in the present moment! You never know what's around the corner!

Daniel Bilmes is a portrait artist based in LA in the United States. His work is unlike anything I've seen. He creates portraits in oils that look as though they've been stitched together like embroidery. How often can we say that there's a unique approach to painting? Perhaps Daniel has found that unique form of expression? We not only talked about the technical side of painting, giving me an opportunity to geek out on some new colours and approaches, but we took a dive into Daniel's past and learned about his origins, teaching at his father's art school from the age of 15... This conversation even covered ground on the education system at large and how important early influences are.

Lubomir Arsov is an artist and filmmaker based in Toronto, Canada. He's got an incredible graphic style; his art has an immediacy to it that communicates instantly. In this podcast we talked about many things from Lubomir's beginnings to his current projects and what inspires him today. Lubomir created "In Shadow" a short 13 minute film exploring the nature of reality and the society in which we live. The film challenged me on many levels and consequently I've been sharing it far and wide. It is one of the most POWERFUL pieces of art I've seen, period. In my opinion it speaks to the core of what's shaping our world today.
