Falling Leaves, Moody Palettes: How Do Artists Embrace Autumn?
Shorter days and falling leaves have Joy and Teresa thinking back to grade school fall art projects. They recall laminating fallen leaves between melted wax paper and making homemade Halloween costumes. They also explore the ways the changing seasons impact their art today and what each hope to accomplish artistically before year-end. The episode is bookended at the start with an update on Joy’s attempt at travel journaling and at the end with memories of 80s horror movie franchises—and the 1979 horror mini-series that Teresa still revisits.~Show Notes and Links~Preserve Fallen LeavesNosferatu: The monster who still terrifies, 100 years onTV Mini-series Salem's Lot This is a public episode.

Art In Progress: Sketching on Location, Creating a New Collection
Joy and Teresa update one another on current projects. Joy reveals she is leaving on a trip and wants to try sketching on location. Teresa has been getting into a flow at her workbench and is allowing a new collection to emerge on its own. They’ve both been busy writing one-line stories to read out loud. The conversation begins by featuring listener comments to the question, “Why I Create,” and ends by swapping memories of 1980s scents—both good and bad. ~Show Notes and Links~Point and Line to Plane by Wassily KandinskyEdward Hopper Study for Route 6, EasthamLiz Steel Travel SketchingLove's Baby Soft This is a public episode.

Why We Create
Hearing Barry Manilow explain why he writes songs has Teresa and Joy asking each other why they create? Joy has one word that captures her motivation as a creator, and Teresa pinpointed several words that drive her metalsmithing. Miniature paintings and one-sentence-stories have led Teresa into a rabbit hole, and Joy reads up on the Edmund Fitzgerald. Comments are still coming in from the digital detox episode, including one from Insta artsytypespod follower aeaea.jewellery.

Where Do Ideas Come From?
Finished works of art are born from small ideas. Tiny seeds—sometimes just a few scattered thoughts—somehow nestle into our minds, find ways to grow and finally make their way to a pencil, a paintbrush, piano keys, a mound of clay or a piece of enamel. Joy and Teresa talk about using an annoying crow, a haunting photograph, and an inflatable kayak as launchpads to creativity. In Rabbit Holes and Recommendations, Joy finally discovers the mastery of author Claire Keegan and Teresa explores the unique music of British composer Matthew Wilcock. Their childhood gym class staple, Dodgeball, is in the headlines, and the episode wraps up by highlighting a new Instagram follower, artist and studio jeweler aether_.studio.~Show Notes and Links~Musician/Artist Matthew WilcockReview of Foster by Claire KeeganJoy's Short Fiction "Crow Dad"Teresa's Cuff Bracelet Set "Where Bluebirds Brood" This is a public episode.

Recipes for Living a Creative Life
Do you have habits and rituals, or things like special clothing or playlists that set the stage for your creativity? Joy and Teresa share the recipes they each use to spark their creativity. From alt-rock band Pavement playing loudly through headphones, to curated ambient music designed to create an “emotional weather system” in the studio, their two recipes start at the same places then quickly veer off. Joy comes armed with a book anti-recommendation, and Teresa discovers trench art in Rabbit Holes and Recommendations, all before doing a deep dive on a tv show of their youth, Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp. A Bed & Breakfast account from the UK gets shouted out as a new ArtsyTypesPod Instagram follower. ~Show Notes and Links~Georgia O'Keefe's Artful LifestyleWhy Did Steve Jobs Wear the Same Clothes?

When Is it Ok to Be a Creative Copycat?
Artists have tried to replicate the works of the masters for centuries. Copying to learn is nothing new. But what happens when the piece of jewelry you dreamed up while looking at the stars, sketched into existence in an old notebook and crafted after hours at your workbench—what happens when you see that identical piece of jewelry for sale on someone else’s website? Joy and Teresa discuss the importance of pulling inspiration from other artists while not crossing the plagiarism line. When is it ok to be a creative copycat? In Rabbit holes and Recommendations, Teresa gets caught up in the amazing mind of mixed media artist Chris Roberts Antieau, and Joy has Olivia Rodrigo’s newest album on heavy rotation, while both Gen X’ers are troubled by a hit song from their youth, “Escape (The Pina Colada Song).” The episode ends with comments on past topics from two followers of the ArtsyTypesPod Instagram account. ~Show Notes and Links~Old Masters Copying Old MastersThe History of Copying Art: A Learning Tool or a Cheat?

A-Ha Moments: Three Creativity Revelations
The creativity conversations are generating lots of ideas, and they’ve led Joy and Teresa to pose a question to one another: what have your a-ha moments been? Are there revelations that have found their way into your artistic process? Whether it’s a reminder to get out of the studio and live life, or a directive to call upon muses to help with creativity, the a-ha moments are revealed. The episode’s recommendations include a Dutch musician forging a unique musical path, as well as a book that breaks down the craft of Russian short stories. The now-obsolete phone booth is the backdrop for the 1980s segment, and each creator shares the odd categories Spotify has put them in. The episode ends with a back-and-forth on the beauty of flourishes, and mentions the Instagram account and website theflourishclub.~Show Notes and Links~Matheus LodewijkA Swim in the Pond in the RainGloomcore Playlist on SpotifySad Girl Starter Pack Playlist on SpotifyThe Art of Flourishes by the Flourish Club This is a public episode.
