In this two part interview, Margo is joined by licensed illustrator, adjunct college professor, and online course digital illustration instructor, Beth Buffington. Like many creatives, Beth has been drawing since she was old enough to hold a crayon. After graduating with a degree in art and graphic design, she began her creative career working for “in-house” corporate art departments. 
After years of corporate communications, she decided to focus on her personal creative passions, by starting her business, BDI-Celebrate-Today, and BDI-Create-Today.

 

Margo and Beth discuss:

  • Wellness when it comes to working and taking care of yourself as part of the creative process
  • Diving deeper into the four R’s as it pertains to her creative process and what she teaches
  • Mind mapping
  • Giving yourself permission to step away from work 
  • Student accomplishments after taking her course
  • How she removes overwhelm in her own life and within the course
  • Celebrating life everyday

 

Beth’s work is two-fold. She creates illustrations and home decor products—and she also instructs college and online students how to be curious about trends, color, texture, and materials—through the creation of digital illustration. She is also passionate about sharing with students her thoughts on being a healthy artist who is confident and brave about their artistic skills and their artwork.
