The Imperfect Palette Podcast is a laid-back, funny, and honest podcast for artists and creators who’ve ever stared at a blank page and questioned their entire existence. Each week we talk about the real side of making art like creative slumps, ego, comparison, burnout, self-doubt, and the occasional sketchbook-induced crisis. No fake guru advice, no pretending we’ve got it figured out. Just real conversations, laughs, questionable spending habits, and the reminder you’re not alone. If your creative process is messy, welcome.

    Ep 4: The Artist vs. The Ego

    Ego gets a bad reputation, but it isn’t always the loud voice telling you that you’re better than everyone else. Sometimes it’s much quieter. It’s the voice that takes criticism personally, compares your journey to another artist’s, makes you afraid to be a beginner, or convinces you that you have to stay the artist you’ve already become. In this episode of The Imperfect Palette, we’re talking about the ways ego can sneak into our creative lives and how learning to recognize it can help us grow without taking ourselves quite so seriously. If something in this episode resonates with you, share it with another artist who might need to hear it. And if you’re enjoying the podcast, take a second to rate and review it wherever you listen.

    Ep 3: What Is Success?

    In Episode 3 of The Imperfect Palette, we’re talking about success. Not the version measured by followers, money, awards, or how many people know your name. The quieter version. What if success is having a creative life you actually want to live? What if the goal isn’t to become more successful, but to figure out what success actually means to you? We’ll talk about comparison, changing definitions of success, the pressure to “make it,” and the messy reality of trying to build a creative life without letting the creative world decide what that life should look like. Because maybe success isn’t a finish line. Maybe it’s knowing you’re headed somewhere worth going. 🎙️ Episode 3 — What Is Success? The Imperfect Palette

    Ep 2: Why Do We Create?

    Why do we create? In this episode of The Imperfect Palette, we talk about the three different directions artists can take: creating for yourself, creating for fame and notoriety, and creating for money. We get into what happens when social media becomes part of being an artist, the strange balance between time, creativity, and recognition, and how easy it is to let everything surrounding the art become more important than actually making the art. No big answers. No “10 steps to become a successful artist.” Just an honest conversation about why we picked up the brush in the first place and whether we’d still create if nobody was watching.
