A consistent comfort
I look forward to this podcast every week. Guiseppe devotes himself to the rights of the illustrator and speaks for us. I love hearing The guest’s insights too. I hope I will get to listen to this for a long time!
Best podcast out there for me
I sit working on illustrations listening to Guiseppe talking to so many people. I am binge listening. He is such a good interviewer and unlike what some might say he lets everyone talk. I feel better working towards my goals as an illustrator. I joined as a Patreon because I enjoy it so much. I have never done Patreon for anyone before. Just listen you will get so much information.
