Episode 40 - Style Party

It's Episode 40! So I figured a cheezy 40th b-day party was indeed in order... Not that we're a 40 year old podcast, but still... why not? In this episode we address a fantastic question about style from a listener. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages to having a distinct style as an illustrator, as well as some tips for illustrators who might choose to work in varying styles... An episode not to be missed!
