Description

A very special insight this week into Danni's past as 'wax' lyrical (that will make more sense once you listen!) with one of his oldest friends: illustrator, hand-lettering specialist, author, and host of The Creative Condition Podcast Ben Tallon. Ben's organic, energetic brand of image-making for Channel 4, The Guardian, World Wrestling Entertainment, The New York Times, Bloomsbury Books, and The Premier League is hand-made and digitally composed for speed and flexibility across all media. Ben also works live, on camera, and large scale. His passion for creativity led to his debut book, Champagne and Wax Crayons, described by Designersblock's Piers Roberts as "the book the creative industry needed'. The Creative Condition book is due out this month and you can pre-order your copy now!

 ‘In The Creative Condition, Ben shares an intimate and timely insight into the pivotal role of creativity, serving not only as a reflection of our identity but also as our guiding light during tumultuous times. In an era where hope might seem fleeting, he champions the wonder of our imagination, emphasising its profound ability to uplift our spirit and inspire transformative change in the world around us.’ – Katy Cowan, Founding Editor of Creative Boom
