On Today’s show I spend an hour talking to Webcomic Diva Onezumi Hartstein and her husband/producer James Harknell. We talk about highlights from Intervention 2010 and what’s in store for 2011. Enjoy the podcast!

The goal of Intervention is to bring together different independent creators and fans to party, educate, and appreciate the opportunities the Internet gives to all of us. IT is similar to the Sci-Fi/Anime/Other fandom cons, but here the emphasis is on people who use the internet as the primary way to distribute their work and communicate with their friends.

One Crazy Weekend in Anaheim! I spent Fourth of July weekend tabling in Artist’s Alley at the 2011 AM2 Anime Manga Music Con! It’s not my usual kind of crowd or event but I figured what the heck? Time to expand my horizons and meet new people! I’m sure glad I did!
The Man vs. Art Crew!
With the help of my wife “The Lovely and Vivacious Hortencia” and my nephew Jacob, I set up my table with original art, prints, my books, DVDs, buttons, and cards for sale. Plus I also took commissions that I would draw up on the spot. If you could think it up, I would draw it for you! A bunch of new minions signed up for the Man vs. Art subscription list and I got lots and lots of compliments on my stuff.As for how I did? Well I sold a few original sketches and did a couple of commissions! My Cowboy Bebop Faye Valentine sketch went withing the first hour! Below you can see my rough pencils and finished inked drawing.

Holy smokes! Has it been 50 episodes already?!
I’ve had a blast producing the show. I’ve learned so much about art, artists, and about myself. Since day one, I decided to produce my show to a higher standard of quality than most others in terms of production value, editing, writing, music, comedy, and honesty in the content.

The inherent difficulty and comedic irony of producing a show about Visual Arts in audio.

Why on Earth would I choose to produce an audio podcast about visual art? What am I stupid?!
