    Join Forrest and Eli for an hour as they dissect the trend that is Inktober and many of its relative drawing challenges. They go over all the basics of how it works, pens, papers, stationery, etc., and what it's like to successfully complete 31 days straight of intensive illustration. As always the conversation diverts and we hit the fascinating movement of Midjourney. Eli shares his recent experience with it and explains why traditional artists ought to keep up to speed with digital art trends and developments for new found sources of inspiration.

We discuss her routine of reading eight books at the same time, Eli enlightens us about Australian folklore, and Forrest finds a rare opportunity to talk about fox domestication.
