This is a chill little podcast where I like to chat about--yep--art! My name’s Leanne (did you guess that too?!) and I'm your host. I’m a visual artist, crafter, video maker, blogger, and probably some other things, too.
In this every-now-and-then type of podcast, I talk about my thoughts on creating, share inspiring artists, resources, recommendations, etc. My goal is always to inspire and empower creators; I want every human to understand that we are all capable of being artists.
Whether painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpting, crafting or something else is your thing, I hope you enjoy!
Create before you curate! Plus, my media obsession and a GIVEAWAY...
Welcome to yet another rambling edition of Leanne's Little Art Chats!!! I have a few thoughts today; I discuss why it's important to curate before, talk a bit more about my media obsession, and have some great artists to share!

I didn’t think it could happen to ME… Perfectionism and everyday progress…

When Times Are Dark, Keep Making Your Art.
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??

Real Artists Don't Use AI Art... OR DO THEY?
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!?!?

Why You Need a Messy Sketchbook…(or Not!!)
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 (https://youtu.be/4WrkDSzNpNg)
