On this week's episode, I talk to designer and San Antonio native Paul Soupiset. I first came across Paul's work last year when he posted his Lentenblog. I loved his watercolors and the interesting way he was approaching his faith through art. When Paul visited New York, I invited him to visit us at home. Patti, Jack and I were in the middle of trying to make linoleum prints and I took some time off to sit with Paul and talk about Art, Life, God and the rest of it.
Spend some time at Paul's site as you listen to our chat.
I am very happy that Paul will be represented in my upcoming book, An Illustrated Life: drawing inspiration from the private sketchbooks of artists, illustrators and designers due out in October from HOW books ( though you can pre-order it today).
The whole episode is 24 minutes long; it's perfect to listen to as you draw in your own journal.
Please stay tuned and consider subscribing via RSS or iTunes* to this weekly feature until the book comes out this Fall.

Danny, I'm one of your fans from Sweden. I think this podcast series is awesome to listen too and be inspired by! I downloaded a few episodes to my pink ipod and listened to it while drawing in the sun this week. Thanks for sharing this for free with all of us!

Very interesting, i am looking forward to see and read your upcoming book.. Do you know if it comes out in Québec in the same time it does in united states?
Anyway, I don't know if you have seen The Lord of the Rings but if you have and if you liked it, you really should watch The Appendice (comes with the special extended edition, i'm sure you can rent it somewhere). It's amazingly inspiring and just by watching it i would work in cinema at any time. It's just like another movie, unlike any other "behind the scenes" thing. You can enter the world of Peter Jackson and at the end you feel like you've been part of this amazing adventure and like you know everyone..
They searched the two original illustrators for the book to be a part of the design team for the movie, they had a real swordman to make all the swords in the movie, it's just fantastic, i'm sure you would like it.
I love the podcasts but when will you post your drawings and thoughts again?
