Kick in the Creatives

Kick in The Creatives Podcast - We talk Creativity, Art and Writing with Creative Challenges and Gossip Tara and Sandra, met by happy accident. Tara had been listening to a Podcast that Sandra just happened to be being interviewed on, and having her own podcast at the time, she invited Sandra to be a guest. The two of them quickly hit it off and went on chatting, long after the recording had stopped… And they haven’t shut up since! Tara was a whizz at idea generation, but having been a graphic

Ep 29 Sketching more Confidently in Public

Kick in The Creatives Podcast ·

2019/02/18

In today's episode, we talk about sketching in public places and how to do that with more confidence. After our sketching trip to London late last year, we thought now would be the perfect time to talk about the topic. Obviously, our number one tip would be to get yourself an incognito disguise like a furry hat and moustache or horses head mask. Failing that, we do have a few other suggestions from ourselves and the advice you all shared on social media (thank you).

Ep 27 Are You Ever Too Old to Start Making Art?

Kick in The Creatives Podcast ·

2019/01/21

In today’s episode we talk about whether you’re ever too old to start making art…. And the answer to that question is NO. So that’s it for today, we’ll see you next time!! No, but seriously… It’s a question you hear from older people, wondering if they’ve left it too late to learn. In fact Sandra wondered it too as she didn't take art seriously until she was in her 30s.

Ep 26 Get Creative in 2019

Kick in The Creatives Podcast ·

2019/01/07

Happy New Year (that sounds so weird when I’m writing this in December) Today’s episode is a round-up of the arty things we’ve loved and what we learned in 2018, plus a look at what we’ve got coming up for 2019. We want to start by saying that having great art materials does not make you a great artist. Any pencil or pen will do, but they are blooming lovely and collecting them is a hobby in itself.

2018/12/10

Today’s episode is all about New Years Resolutions. Don’t you just love them? Why is it that after chugging down a load of wine and eating too much chocolate we feel that we need to make a resolution? Oh yeah, maybe it’s just that we’ve chugged down a load of wine and eaten too much chocolate. Anyway, allow yourself to breathe and let that top button pop open, as we don’t think you should be making resolutions. However, we do think there are better ways we can make positive changes and build

2018/11/26

Today’s episode is all about why too much social media can kill your creative confidence. Of course, social media can be a great place to share your work and meet like-minded people. However, along with the good side of social media, scrolling through too much of it can be a sure way of feeling inferior and it can even end up destroying your confidence. Some of the social media creative confidence issues we discuss How easy it is to feel intimidated by other artists on social media Why you shouldn’t

Today’s episode is all about how time management for creatives. One of the common things we hear that creatives struggle with is finding the time to create something, whether it’s finding time to write each day, or time to draw or paint. In this podcast, we discuss ways that you can make the best use of whatever time you have to keep your creative projects alive.

Ep 22 Creative Chat with Artist Jon Burgerman

2018/10/29

This week’s guest is artist Jon Burgerman. I think we’ve mentioned Jon in nearly every joint podcast episode we’ve done so far. But if you haven’t heard of him you should definitely check out some of his work. Jon was born in the UK but moved to New York City in 2010. His art has a doodle like quality about it. What I like about his work is that it seems to be very much about play and experimentation. Jon’s work exists in many forms including canvases, murals, sculpture, toys, apparel, design,

Ep 21 Recognising and Dealing With a Creative Block

Kick in The Creatives Podcast ·

2018/10/15

In today’s episode, we talk about how to recognise and deal with a creative block. And, more importantly, why do we even have them? And it comes at a good time because both myself and Sandra have been through one quite recently. It seems that just about every Artist out there goes through this at some point, if not a couple of times a year and it is all part of being a Creative. But knowing that doesn’t always make it any easier to deal with.

Ep 19 Painting Commissioned Artwork vs Painting for Joy

Kick in The Creatives Podcast ·

2018/09/17

In today’s episode, we are talking about painting/drawing for commissions versus painting for joy. Within the idea of paid commissions, we are also including those “jobs” where friends or family ask you to create things for them (we’ve all been there!). We’ve been thinking about doing this episode for a while. Sandra has done a lot of commissions this year and I’ve also done a tiny commission recently and some in the past. So we thought now was a good time to talk about it. We’ve both recently been

So Sandra has a wealth of tips to share, plus I throw in a few tips of my own that I’ve learned over the years too. One of the biggest things

2018/07/23

Today’s episode is all about making the best of your creative space. Now that includes keeping your stuff organised and tidy. Anyone that knows me well, will know that tidiness is definitely not my forte. In fact, my partner (who never stops hoovering) would be rolling around laughing at the thought of me giving anyone else advice on this stuff. Hands up who else has an “I don’t know where to put it” drawer Now if you were panicking and thinking why on earth would I listen to someone so untidy, fear

This week we are delighted to have Danny Gregory from Sketchbook Skool on the podcast. In fact, delighted is pretty much an understatement, especially for Sandra who had to decide what outfit she would wear for our voice-only podcast. I'm sure if you love art and drawing you'll know all about Danny Gregory, but just in case you've had your head buried under a sketchbook for the last few years, let me tell you a little more. Danny spent three decades working as one of New York's leading advertising

Today's episode is all about idea generation, a topic we love. I have to try and keep Sandra under control otherwise she comes up with bizarre ideas like inflatable knickers (don't ask!). If you have ever sat with a blank sheet of paper not knowing what to create, then this episode is for you. You really don’t need to wait for that Eureka moment to have an idea. There are lots of different creative techniques you can try. Some of the creativity techniques we cover: Mind mapping - but we put our own

Now Mike has a lot to answer for, in fact, he is the reason that this podcast even exists. He's the one to blame when Sandra and I are warbling on in your ear, as we met via Mike's Creative Push Facebook Group. Mike originally started his podcast because he was looking for a podcast about pushing yourself to be more creative, but he couldn't

As a follow up to our episode about dealing with negative feedback, today's episode is about imposter syndrome. If you haven't heard the term before, it doesn't mean you have to disguise yourself with a pair of googly eyes and fake moustache. Instead, it's that feeling you get that you get when you feel you shouldn't be in the position your in. That you aren't knowledgeable enough even though you have all the expertise and experience that you need to be where you are. How to spot if you have
