Talking Miniatures with Jordan Richardson

What happens when a traditional artist enters the world of miniature painting? In this episode, Jordan Richardson explores how different artistic mediums shape your style, why strong references matter, and what miniature painters can learn from the wider art world. We dive into colour theory, competition painting, deliberate practice and the mental models Jordan uses to overcome creative blocks. Jordan also shares practical advice for developing your own visual language without simply copying the artists who inspire you. A thoughtful conversation about artistic ambition, creative struggle and what it really means to make art in the miniature painting scene.
