This episode I interview Nathan Reidt. Nathan was a video game and digital FX artist for the film industry and (like me) got sick of it all and quit to focus on his own original artwork. We discuss having panic attacks on “Iron Man” and leaving the industry, being a skate punk, following your own art, drawing and oil paint techniques, painting from your head, painting monsters, the ills of social media and a lot more!

Customer Reviews
Best art podcast around!
Chet Zar manages to not just pull off an interview every week, he is able to find different artist each show. Conversations are fun, informative and often deep, but always great!
!
Been a fan for a long time of Chets work, loves listening to his and other processes. My new favorite podcast!
Awesome
I love the podcast. The interviews and the episodes when they're just discussing some esoteric concept or idea are both equally enjoyable. Highly recommended!
