Welcome back to Sus Art Club — where we make creativity sustainable again.
This week, we sit down with Charleston-based illustrator and teaching artist Cara Fischer (@house.of.cara), whose hand-drawn world of bold black-and-white linework is rooted in imagination, play, and presence.
We get into:
✏️ How black and white boundaries brought her back to art
🧠 Leaving burnout behind and finding joy in the basics
🏄🏽 Surf, skating, drawing strangers & studio dogs
🪄 Why play is essential for processing reality
🖼️ Drawing as meditation—and making room for everyday creativity
👶 From teaching preschool to building her own artistic rhythm
We also talk karaoke, Catholic guilt, True Blood, and how saying no (even to kids) is a vital part of self-trust.
Whether you’re making work, making space, or making peace with your inner weirdo—this one’s for you.
📍Recorded at Studio 5 inside Redux Contemporary Art Center
