Minimalist Moms Podcast | Simple Living for Overwhelmed Moms "Art is the Signature of Man" | Jake Weidmann (EP53)
This episode is a part of the Clear Intentions series.
In this episode, artist and Master Penman Jake Weidmann shares how he came to see creativity not as a luxury, but as sacred work - an expression of purpose, worship, and connection. We explore the tension between craftsmanship and convenience in an AI-driven world, and why slowing down to create with intention still matters. Whether you're an artist or simply seeking deeper meaning in your work, this conversation will inspire you to rediscover the beauty and calling of creativity.

About Jake|
Jake is a professional artist and certified as one of nine Master Penmen in the world. Jake was certified through IAMPETH (International Association of Master Penmen, Engrossers, and Teachers of Handwriting) in July 2011. He holds the title as the youngest Master Penman by three decades and the youngest to ever attain the title. His journey into calligraphy has been the “special sauce” for everything he now creates, incorporating the traditional calligraphic flourishing into his fine art. Jake is self-taught in each of his disciplines (calligraphy, painting, drawing, woodworking, and engraving). While he typically works with private clients, Jake has worked with Apple, Inc., Crossway Books, and Biola University, and has spoken from countless stages including TEDx and Q, and was featured on the PBS series, A Craftsman’s Legacy.
