Failure Art Party
By Marissa Habeshy
This podcast is for anyone who has spectacularly failed when attempting an artistic endeavor. Each episode of Failure Art Party explores the tedious and disheartening process of imitating artwork as seen on YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, or just anywhere on the internet, while coping with the crushing imperfections. Join us as we ultimately celebrate these failures and the lessons we learn from them.

Blowing Our Cover
Failure Art Party is back again for Season 2! We thought a great way to start the season would be to create the cover you see before you. Chrissy joins me again to share her knowledge on the wonderful world of graphic design and guide me through this somewhat challenging process. Do NOT judge this cover by its podcast. Music by Emily Holmes

Define Dab
Listen in for the final episode of Season 1! No one thought this day would come, including myself, but it is here. We attempt to copy paintings that are created so effortlessly through simple paint dabbing. While harder than it looks, we actually didn't fail that bad. Keep listening for the highlighted failure artist this episode. Check out these links to see our inspiration: youtu.be/VjPbBhFNaTs youtu.be/K48WRmiHkJ8

You will be baffled to learn that two grown women are unable to accomplish what most 8 year olds can. And here is the link if you want to learn from an actual pro: youtu.be/nvxxpuHGi_g

Piñata Non Grata
Yes friends, we made a piñata this episode. We explore the history of the piñata, tell you everything you ever wanted to know about the donkey, crack up at literary puns, and desperately seek out sponsorship. The piñata turned out wonderfully though. Check out pictures on Instagram @failureartparty.

Crying Over Cricut
Who would have thought that Zooey Deschanel's quirky little Cricut project would be so unbelievably challenging. I am joined by my good friends Michelle and Taylor, who allowed me to crash their wedding anniversary. We laughed, we cried, and we wondered if making a paper cactus is really worth it. Here is the link to the video responsible for our inspiration: youtu.be/c9FWFuIwSf8

Caricature Assassination
Join us as we learn all about the history of caricature and then actually attempt this hilarious artform ourselves. There are some highs and lows but our U.S. presidents definitely suffered the most. Search failureartparty on Instagram to see what I mean.

My Glowing Rat Cat
Chrissy and I are back to tackle a fun and snazzy TikTok trend. We attempt to make glowing works of art using only acrylic paint and optical illusion. Once again, this trend proves to be harder than it looks. Please note the exasperation in our voices by the end.
