0:01:30 Jake and Laura take even more time out of their vacation time for your entertainment, podcast listener. See how much they love you?
0:03:20 Bryn is cornering the market on English language V.O. for the Hungarian market
0:05:05 Nilsa got good feedback on her V.O. demo from Hungarian V.O. king, Brian McKenna (http://btovenmusic.com/)
0:07:55 Nilsa punched-up the "Door-To-Door" script- and John, being a long-time podcast listener is excited about this project!
0:09:00 Nilsa has been offered her dream day job, however…
0:18:10 John Frigo- Jake's cousin, one-time apprentice to Les Scruggs, former Q-Bert enthusiast
0:20:25 Like former podcast guest, Nicholas Young, John Frigo didn't like writing code for other people
0:26:45 Like for Bryn, for John there was a girl involved in his decision to pursue his study of art
0:29:00 Making art has been integral to Sherri's existence for her entire life
0:32:10 Her family was never career-focused, they just got jobs and did their thing, so there was no pressure
0:34:05 Sherri's day job is reference librarian and then she schedules the time to make art
0:34:45 People say they're going to buy, but then they don't
0:35:25 Sherri sometimes wishes she hadn't sold certain pieces simply so she could look at them again
0:38:45 The Bunny Series: Sherri explored loss through an epic series of portraits of one of their cat's toys
0:42:25 Sherri loves to really exhaust a subject before she gives it up
0:44:10 Making art is so essential to both John and Sherri, that they will adapt their style to the space they have available
0:45:45 John likes to make art that "gets seen", like t-shirts, band posters and doesn't so much pursue the gallery scene (here is some CD artwork he's done for the band The Prannies: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/theprannies)
0:46:35 John is a part of a group called "Friends of Bob" that brings musical acts to Lafayette, IN- on the order of nine shows a year. http://www.friends-of-bob.org/
0:48:35 John also designed Laura's poster for "Meet Me On The Ceiling"
0:49:45 John and Sherri undertook a drawing-a-day project for a year. And set rigid boundaries- 4x6 note cards with gel pens (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Yga2TeOhyyg
major props to John DeMoulpied and Michael Williams)
0:52:35 Nilsa asks about the themes John and Sherri explore with their respective work
0:54:05 John and Sherri made their way through the entire available 50+ seasons of Doctor Who. An "impressively insane" accomplishment
0:56:35 Even when Sherri doesn't think she has an idea, she works anyway
0:56:45 Here is a sampling of Sherri's self portraits with an interview: http://www.thinklafayette.com/new-taf-exhibits-showcase-local-music-year-drawings/
0:57:55 Bryn asks Sherri how she knows when she's done with a theme
