Tom Lyle and his Inner Voice – Comics for Beginners podcast episode 11

by Palle Schmidt 1 Comment


We’re often told to listen to the voice inside ourselves. But what if that voice is preventing you from working on the thing you love most? This morning I went back to the New York Comic Con to talk to Tom Lyle (tomlyle.blogspot.com), comics artist known for his work on Spiderman and Batman & Robin and teacher at the Savannah College of Art & Design (https://www.scad.edu/). And I was surprised and encouraged by the fact that this 28-year comics veteran also hears voices. So it’s not just me!

Give it a listen and leave comments below.

    The Andrew Loomis book mentioned at the end, “figure drawing for all it’s worth” is available as a PDF. due to it’s age, I believe it is under a free license now so there you go.
