The Puppets and the Rainbow: Erin Tanner talks to Emily Nilsson
I’ve been looking at your blog a lot to prepare myself for this interview. You made a little video of your hat full of paper scraps with words on them, could you talk about that? I have a similar thing to help motivate me, and I’m fascinated by little tools artists use to give them ideas and direction.
Sometimes I need a little hat raffle to tell me what to do. Sometimes I do coin tosses too. Lately I’ve been asking the tarot deck. I’m not sure what really gets me going, but I know taking a nap or going on a walk usually helps. I’ve usually got a ton of ideas but sometimes ideas feel like they are holding me back, like I should just be impulsively acting and never stopping. It’s been hard for me when people ask me to do certain things like for example to do a puppet show, then I’d rather play the piano, but if someone asked me to play the piano I would probably hide out inside the piano and draw a picture. There’s a few things to work on, saying yes to more people then jumping into the work, and also being okay with doing whatever I feel like doing.
Here’s an interview from gridlords too. These guys rule, check them out if you don’t already know who they are, there’s some awesome interviews and the events are really incredible, a place where comics come to life.
Gridlords 12!
