Art2Life - Podcast tekijän mukaan Nicholas Wilton - Keskiviikkoisin
https://Art2Life.com - To grow artistically, especially in the beginning, we look out into the world at all the art made to help locate ourselves. If we are not yet sure where we are, it makes sense to look for art that reassures us. But it’s also confusing. At times it leaves us with that sinking feeling that the gap between where we are now and where we want to be is too much. The more you look outside yourself, the more you have to sort to find your expression. But what if you could artfully and sustainably stay open to all the art that influences and inspires you? Taking the time to consider others’ art will undoubtedly embolden yours. Meet Emilio Villalba. A young Mexican American artist born in Chula Vista, California. Emilio is an intrepid explorer committed to finding his common thread in all the art he gains inspiration from and ultimately creates. The trajectory of his art and the fact that it is undergoing a process of change visible to the growing numbers who follow his work is undoubtedly part of its draw. The other part is that we all know that whatever Emilio makes next will be startlingly fresh, original, and groundbreaking. Join us today for stories of early breakthroughs, inspiring influences, and how Emilio is pulling off his extraordinary art. ================================ LISTEN IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN… Getting acquainted with Emilio’s art journey, his start in animation, and becoming obsessed with figurative drawing [2:31] The conceptual complexity of Emilio’s work [16:26] Emilio’s big turning point [22:47] The evolution of Emilio’s art [29:32] Emilio’s road ahead and current sources of inspiration [38:07] Maintaining momentum while experimenting with your art [43:33] ================================ RESOURCES MENTIONED Drawing Lessons from the Great Masters (Book): https://www.amazon.com/Drawing-Lessons-Masters-Robert-Beverly/dp/0823014010 Drawing Manual (Book): https://www.amazon.com/Vilppu-Drawing-Manual-Glenn/dp/1892053039 David Park: A Painter’s Life (Book): https://www.amazon.com/Vilppu-Drawing-Manual-Glenn/dp/1892053039 ================================= CONNECT WITH EMILIO VILLALBA Website: https://emiliovillalbaart.com/ Art Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emilio_villalba Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elmo_84 Upcoming November Workshops: https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch47W8IJUzm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Upcoming shows: https://www.hashimotocontemporary.com/exhibitions/209-emilio-villalba-besides/overview/ ============================= CONNECT WITH NICHOLAS WILTON AND ART2LIFE: Get the Free COLOR TIPS PDF: https://workshop.art2life.com/color-tips-pdf-podcasts/ Follow the Sunday Art2Life Vlog: https://art2life.lpages.co/sign-up-for-the-a2l-vlog/ Follow Nicholas Wilton's Art on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicholaswilton/ Follow Art2Life on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/art2life_world/?hl=en Like on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/art2lifeworld Subscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe8dJWKgPKkW4W3fsb1vLeg
