I need overheard conversations; this is often where I get my ideas. I take notes constantly. I turn snippets of language into drawings. Sentences or fragments get channeled through a process that sometimes takes years to become a drawing. Although I’m a pretty traditional artist in that I make drawings, landscape drawings, I don’t keep a sketchbook. The majority of my prep-work for drawings is entirely word-based. – Robyn O’Neil
I conducted my first ever immersive/scavenger hunt interview with the wonderful Robyn O’Neil over here at Coronagraph. I’ve always wanted to do this type of an interview and I was super stoked that Robyn was so trusting, open, and positive about the concept! In all honesty, I was really in a terrible creative funk before this experience. I felt stuck and stagnant. But having to engage in this conversation (experientially, emotionally, and analytically) has been a true blessing. It’s opened my eyes and heart to a certain life approach that I hope turns into a definitive practice– this idea of belonging everywhere you go by always unabashedly inviting the world into your work.
