ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Creative Figures is a long-form interview show about how creative people actually live and work. One guest per episode — artists, designers, illustrators, writers, filmmakers, makers of every kind — and no hurry: the practice behind the portfolio, the decisions behind the career, the parts that never make the highlight reel. Between conversations, occasional solo episodes on craft and creative independence.

Kieron Anthony Lewis opens this one by saying he cannot do the project justice by describing it. That you almost have to see it.

His commercial illustration work vanished this year, and he suspects AI …
