I found Nishant’s podcast because of an interview he did with Sandi Hester - I follow her on YouTube. If I’m honest I’m usually not a huge podcast listener. But there’s something that I’m really enjoying with each of his chats. His questions and in fact the whole conversation seem so organic, although I know he plans and does his homework (he shared a spread in his notebook of his process). I love how long these are because he gets in-depth and I feel like when the podcast ends I know so much about the person and a little more about Nishant’s journey as well.

I am a fine art painter and LOVE this podcast. The conversations are deep and introspective…all the topics are things a often think and journal about. The episodes are long…perfect for listening to while I work or during longer car rides. Nishant does a beautiful job in these juicy conversations digging deep to the root of why we make art. I like that these aren’t “surface” discussions, rather, they explore the philosophies and processes of experienced artists. I’m so grateful for this gem! Thank you!!!—Megan Carty, @megan_carty_art.

I am just a few weeks into urban sketching. Being a long time drawer of aliens and monsters, I never realized how little I know about perspective and the real world. During my quest for as much information as my brain can handle, I have taken online classes, read blogs, and watched live draws, but none of them have helped in the way that this podcast has. The questions are intelligent, well thought out, insightful, and inspirational. The guests have been wonderful and has helped expand my pallet of teachers in my urban sketching fledgling phase. Thank you.

A really interesting interview each episode with an artist. Even if you’re not an urban sketcher, you’ll still find the artists talking about their creative processes fascinating. And Nishant, the host, is knowledgeable and curious.

Several times the interviewees have said “Is there a question there”. This is a clear sign that you are lecturing and pontificating, not interviewing. LESS Nishant, more answers. PLEASE.

I’ve enjoyed listening to every podcast because each one gives me a new gem to think about and incorporate into my work. Nishant’s questions come from his own curiosity and always unveil an insight into the artists work. Totally worth a listen!

I’m a relatively new urban sketcher and I’m enjoying these conversations with some sketchers I’ve been following and others who are new to me more than I thought I would. Very thoughtful conversations and very motivating.

I’m trying to learn how to draw comics and incorporate urban sketching into my panels. Nishant is an excellent interviewer and conversationalist. Highly recommend to anyone looking to understand the ways in which talented artists see and hone their craft.

Amazing discussions and great content. Will recommend to busy corporate types like myself!

Give it a go!
