Simona interviewed by Will Terry on his youtube channel !

Really enjoyed the interview and putting a face to the forum name
.
For many of us who have never had the privilege of studying any creative things in a formal school setting, it was good to hear the real deal of what workload and expectations s/b etc.
Well done @Will-Terry and @smceccarelli ! -
Thanks for linking to this @Kevin-Longueil I didn't notice it on the channel and of course thanks to Will and Simona for making it
-
I really enjoyed this and it also gave me a much needed kick in the seat of the pants. Thanks guys!

I synthesize my thoughts about my last comment on one phrase:"Art digital techniques and technology, model business, distribution methods, and clients are changing so fast now, like on everyday basics, and traditional schools are not" So we need some not traditional education and that is why these websites, podcasts, forums, and courses are here, to supply a new demand.

@smceccarelli oh my gosh! I totally laughed. āYou donāt know how to draw hands? Draw 500 and Iāll bet youāll be able to.ā And thanks for reminding me what pressure existed in art school. We did work our butts off! I sometimes cringe at the word ātalented.ā Almost like it discredits all the work someone pours into their craft. Thanks for the Interview! @Will-Terry. Itās always good to hear that where we are doesnāt have to be where we stay. Itās great to know all the work she put in to becoming the artist we love here on the forum. Youāre fabulous @smceccarelli ! Canāt wait to see all your future creations!

Sheās been such a valuable SVS artist. I am happy that she got recognized.

Thank you all for taking the time to listen and for your feedback - Iām deeply honored both by WillĀ“s interest and you actually watching it! The truth is I was terrified and my major concern was that a) everybody would see how nervous I was and b) my nervousness would make me say a bunch of silly things that IĀ“d later regret and c) I would mortally offend someone (I have a knack for that).
Iām so glad I manage to be at least coherent and not to say anything I didnāt actually think! Grateful to Will for pushing me out of my comfort zone (once again) - now I only need to do a bunch of these and then I can do plenaries :-)) -
@smceccarelli You didnāt look nervous at all and it was wonderful listening to you and as others have said, putting a face to your name. You have not only a gift for art but a gift for communicating your ideas and methods. Thanks.

@smceccarelli You just have to do 499 more interviews and you won't be nervous anymore! Joking aside, it was an excellent video and fun to learn a bit more about you. You did great.
