This week I sit down with artist Marty Gordon, Collage and cartoonist and overall interesting artist! Marty was recommended to me by other people which is apt for the topic of the show but also as he has a fascinating background as a former minister and a strong love of community for art which of course fits very well with this show!As such as sat down this week to talk about the challenges as an artist on topics such as finding the right moments to create, storing work, keeping in the scene and how certain spaces can vary in the level of support provided to you before after and during a show. We are both huge believers in lifting up other artists and creating actual connections rather than adding someone to a follow list and as such it was a pleasure to be able to talk through that landscape of thought with Marty.

Maybe it's the millennial in me but I want bridge the gap in defense of small talk. It's a bridge we use with one another and in many ways in an art form in itself. Some are bad some are good but over all we need it to put people at ease and grow communication more effectively. And no you don't owe anyone happiness or politeness but we do owe people the benefit of the doubt and helping them when they are anxious.So this week we sit down to talk gen z stare, social situations, Gen X rudeness, Millennial humor and all the other things which will get me into trouble for even mentioning them online as an old man.The show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!

I am a firm believer that all things can be art, you only need label them as such. I also believe there is good and bad art. Something I think is important to remember when dealing with artists though is that art is accidental. There is a level of organic chaos which is resonant in creation and whilst I'm not declaring all art is a fluke or can be waved away or "anyone can do that" I am saying declaring yourself the best is wrong and saying all things were intended at the time of creation is also wrong.But hey maybe I'm just bad at art.The show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!

This week I sit still to talk life lessons, discovery and how the outside world really can impact what you thought you were teaching yourself. With talk on self care and injury it's worth taking a step back some times and making a piece for yourself rather than other people.

This week I get to sit down with comic creator, journalist, zine maker extraordinaire that is Caitlin Cook. Better known as Cooklin online I've been following her work a long while after discovering her comics about depression and then getting an insight into Asexuality through her other work. Not one to shy away from the harder topics and with a great sense of humour and story telling I thought she'd be a great person to catch up with.We sit down to talk varied backgrounds of artists and how that comes into play when you create and market your work but also how that helps balance your own expectations of what can be achieved. Caitlin has a storied background in media and news and had a book coming out in the near term dealing in memoirs and sexuality so I highly recommend checking her out and giving her a follow to find out more!Find Cooklin at:https://www.instagram.com/cooklin_comics/https://microcosmpublishing.com/catalog/artist/cooklinhttps://www.etsy.com/shop/CooklinComicsStorehttps://linktr.ee/cooklinhttps://sites.google.com/view/cooklincomicsThe show is available on:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteSupport us onhttps://www.patreon.com/yellingatconcreteIf you'd like to support at all there is a patreon and I have the goal of finding 38 members by the end of the year to make the show fully funded in terms of the running costs!
