Iteration 70: The Medium is Irrelevant
July 26, 2022 18:00 - 5 minutes - 3.67 MBThe other day, a friend of mine texted me a link to a podcast, along with a single sentence that read, “If I could be a small fraction of the photographer Sally Mann is, it would really be something.” Now, this friend is a terrific photographer but, like so many of us, he sometimes gets stuck in the rut of comparison. I get it. I really do. Sally Mann is an iconic photographer, but one of the most challenging—and I think harmful—things we can do to ourselves as artists is to unreasonably com...
Deep Natter 56: A Collaboration with Technology
July 21, 2022 18:00 - 45 minutes - 31.3 MBIn this episode, Sean and I are talking about how some of the evolutions in technology will impact the way we make art and, in some cases, blur the line of creativity between humans and machines. We also trade links to some of the things each of us has found interesting over the past week or so.

Deep Natter 55: Go with the Questions
July 14, 2022 16:00 - 47 minutes - 32.8 MBIn this episode, Sean and I have an honest and, at times, revealing discussion around how comparing our work to others can often lead to creative paralysis. We also talk about the importance of finding an accountability buddy who can give us the support and feedback we need—whether it’s positive or negative—that can really help us move forward.

Iteration 69: Productive Disruption
July 02, 2022 21:00 - 4 minutes - 3.39 MBFor the past several months, I found myself feeling more and more overwhelmed by my own expectations around the work I was producing. I started feeling the weight of some of the narratives in the work—greed, power, corruption, the failure of capitalism—a realization prompted in part by a conversation with my stepmother who, when looking at a recent painting of mine simply responded, “Wow. That’s really dark, honey.” Being so close to the work hadn’t really allowed me to see it for what it wa...
Deep Natter 53: A Smooth Trajectory to Brilliant
June 30, 2022 16:00 - 49 minutes - 34.3 MBDo you ever get the feeling that the world is falling apart? Me too, but in this episode, Sean and I discuss how feelings aren’t facts and just because the bad stuff is often easier to believe doesn’t make it true. Plus, we talk about expectations and how needing to know the outcome of a project often keeps us from ever beginning.

June 23, 2022 20:00 - 54 minutes - 37.2 MBIn this episode, Sean is back and shares some of his thoughts and takeaways from his recent creative retreat in Tuscany. Also, I finally finished The Last of Us 2, which we’ve wanted to talk about literally for years. I think it’s safe to say that for each of us, not only was it an incredible gaming experience, but also an example of how great storytelling and well-paced narrative can transcend mediums.

Deep Natter 51: Everything’s an Experiment
June 16, 2022 21:00 - 46 minutes - 32.1 MBLast week, I was joined by Maarten Rots for a terrific conversation around his approach to creativity. As is often the case when talking about the creative process, there’s always more to unpack so I asked Maarten if he’d be willing to come back to continue the conversation. In this episode, while in some ways we’re picking up where we left off, we also go in some different directions, specifically around giving ourselves permission to play and being okay when a project goes somewhere we nev...
Deep Natter 50: You Can Always Try Again
June 10, 2022 13:00 - 49 minutes - 34.1 MBThis is episode 50 of Deep Natter and today we’ve got a little treat for you. If you’re a regular listener, you’ve undoubtedly heard the name Maarten Rots. He’s someone that Sean and I have mentioned a number of times on the show, usually in reference to how creative he is. Back in 2020, Sean even did a video about him He’s an artist in every sense of the word and in this episode, Maarten and I are talking about his approach to creativity which really centers around self-care and wellness. ...
Iteration 68: Putting My Self First
June 09, 2022 20:00 - 5 minutes - 3.77 MBOne of the most difficult things about being a freelance creative is that you’re basically always on the clock. Sure, you can wait for inspiration to strike, but in my experience, you’ll end up waiting more than making. As Chuck Close famously said, “Inspiration is for amateurs. The rest of us just show up and get to work.” While I understand what he’s saying, and may even agree with it to an extent, sometimes it’s not that easy. I think there’s a middle ground where instead of simply waitin...
Deep Natter 49: Structured But Simple
June 02, 2022 20:00 - 45 minutes - 31.1 MBLast week, I was talking to Maarten Rots—who you’ve heard us mention several times on the show—and I was asking him how he manages to stay so creative. His answer not only surprised me, but it inspired me to adopt a similar approach to my own creativity in an experiment for the month of June. Talking it through with Sean launched us into a terrific discussion around making and self-care and, what he calls, “turning down the bullying boss.” LINKS The Meaning in the Making Carl Jung CONNECT ...
Deep Natter 48: Feelings Aren’t Facts
May 27, 2022 17:00 - 43 minutes - 29.6 MBA few days ago, I came across a post that painted a pretty grim portrait of our collective futures—and here’s the thing…I wasn’t surprised by it at all. If I’m being honest, it’s something that I often feel anyway. When I brought it up to Sean, he was quick to point out that the way we feel is often just that, a feeling, not a fact. In this especially deep natter, we unpack happiness, negativity bias, and why for many of us, the bad stuff is often easier to believe. LINKS Is Happiness a Cho...
Iteration 67: Is Happiness a Choice?
May 25, 2022 16:00 - 7 minutes - 5.4 MBI was texting with one of my oldest friends recently after she got back from a trip to Italy and at one point in the conversation, she asked whether I was happy. “I’m grateful, but I don’t think I’m happy,” I responded. “And maybe that’s just the way I’m wired. I’m not generally unhappy either, although there are moments of each. It’s just not consistent.” There were a few moments of onscreen silence and she came back with, “Maybe don’t ask yourself if you’re happy (and neither will I—sorry!...
Deep Natter 47: The Technique is Invisible
May 19, 2022 18:00 - 50 minutes - 35.1 MBIn this episode, Sean and I are talking about moving forward on new projects and how for each of us, the success of those projects relies heavily not on simple tricks but in a deeper connection to technique and narrative. We also talk about dealing with the perceived failure anytime we venture too far outside of our creative comfort zones.

May 05, 2022 20:00 - 50 minutes - 34.5 MBI few nights ago, I got to go see Jacob Collier, who I was introduced to by Sean. If you’ve never heard of him or heard his music, he’s an absolute genius who is able to play pop, jazz, classical, you name it, and his fans include Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, and Hans Zimmer. In this episode, we’re talking about not just Jacob and his music, but some of the things we can take from him and apply to our own art making.

April 29, 2022 16:00 - 46 minutes - 32.2 MBIn this episode, we’re talking about changing up the how and the why of what we do creatively by getting away from chasing likes and follows and putting more energy into creating community and engagement.

April 22, 2022 23:00 - 52 minutes - 35.9 MBLet me ask you something. Do process and technique really matter? I mean in the grand scheme of making art, does it matter what tools or what techniques an artist uses to create their work as long as the end product is compelling or pleasing to look at or moves us in some way?

He’s shot for some of the most prestigious magazines and clients in the world, including TIME, Newsweek, LIFE, Sports Illustrated, New York, and National Geographic.

April 08, 2022 18:00 - 41 minutes - 28.5 MBThis episode might seem like a bit of a departure, but I don’t really think that it is. Sean and I started out talking about the Morning Pages challenge from last week’s episode, which then led us down a rabbit hole into a larger discussion around science and God and how the search for truth is really at the core of both of them. I think it was a terrific conversation and I hope you enjoy it. LINKS Enneagram Myers & Briggs Ricky Gervais and Stephen Colbert on God Rob Bell Richard Rohr Brian...

April 02, 2022 22:47 - 42 minutes - 29.1 MBRecently, the closing of my former web host inspired Sean and I to take a step back from our respective websites — and it’s allowed each of us to see the work we do and, maybe more interestingly, the work we share in a different light.

February 11, 2022 17:51 - 50 minutes - 34.6 MBOne of the themes we keep coming back to on this show is the idea of being seen or heard, and I think for both Sean and myself, that desire is core to who we are as humans. I think that’s one of the reasons social media has become such a big part of the human experience. In this episode, we’re talking about getting ideas out in the world even if it means letting go of them.

As is often the case when we talk, the conversation follows more than a few rabbit holes, from how podcasting has changed since we started OTP in 2012, to watching the Beatles demystifying creativity, to how it feels to see home movies of our parents who were taken from us way too soon, and a bunch more.

For Sean, that means getting back to portraiture, both as a maker and as an educator.

November 13, 2021 02:31 - 45 minutes - 30.9 MBLast week, we released a show that seems to be resonating with quite a few of you. In fact, we’ve received more feedback on that episode than any other episode we’ve done. I think it’s because so many of us are in the same place with trying to figure out where what we make fits, how to get it out there in front of people, and if we’re lucky, make a little money from it.

November 05, 2021 19:02 - 51 minutes - 35.3 MBThis episode wasn’t meant to be an episode. It started as one of our pre-show chats — Sean and I just talking before we jumped into what we had actually planned to talk about, which now completely escapes me. But as it’s happened so many times before when we talk, we went off on a tangent, and this time it was a deep one around worth and value and the often paralyzing fear of showing ourselves to the world through the things we make.
