Show Notes
This week… we’re doing something a little different. This week, Andy is the guest, because Andy was the model for a life drawing session in Pasadena, CA where he was joined by five talented multimedia artists sketching, painting and watercoloring Andy in his birthday suit.
Those artists are:
Carrie Chen (they/she)
Shirley Huang (she/her)
Gabriel Ortiz (he/him)
Lawrence Lee (he/him)
Danny Rios (he/him)
& the host of Pasadena Life Drawing, Michael Olivares (he/him)!
After Andy made his nude modeling debut, Andy sat down for separate conversations with Carrie, Shirley and Michael for a conversation about being present, the creative headspace and necessary chaos.
PLUS!
-why did modeling bring Andy closer to his child self?
-could the artists tell when Andy was uncomfortable?
-what color and vibe was Andy giving off? (it wasn’t green!)
-which poses hurt? What was Andy thinking about while in the poses?
-how is modeling a mindfulness practice?
-the always additive magic and power of creativity
-how Shirley predicted this entire episode
