New year. Same art world. Still absolutely unhinged.
January on Spill the Art Tea serves three very different energies — digital brains, market meltdowns, and painterly calm — all held together with curiosity, side-eyes, and the occasional raised eyebrow.
Here’s what you’re getting.
🎨 Episode 70 — VitaliV
Digital art, process panic & “are we still the artist here?” vibes
📅 15 January
🎧 Watch:
We kick off the year with VitaliV, a digital artist who actually thinks about tools instead of just downloading the latest one and calling it a practice.
We talk:
- AI without the doom spiral
- Process vs output (yes, it matters)
- Whether artists are steering the tech… or just riding shotgun
It’s nerdy in the best way, and refreshingly free of buzzwords.
💥 Episode 71 — Poppy Cauchi
NFTs, market crashes & the sound of hype hitting a wall
🎧 Watch:
If you enjoy watching bubbles burst (emotionally, not just financially), this one’s for you.
With Poppy Cauchi, we get stuck into:
- The NFT hangover nobody wants to admit they have
- What artists are actually left with when trends implode
- Why “the market” isn’t a personality trait
Honest, sharp, and a little bit feral — in a good way.
🎨 Episode 72 — James Wellwood
Paint, patience & making work without chasing algorithms
📅 Out Thursday
We close January with painter James Wellwood — Expect talk about Mondrain, cheese, The Lourve and more!
