Be careful what you wish for. It may come true, but not quite as you hoped for. This ancient moral is explored in the spooky story, The Monkey's Paw by W.W. Jacobs. Even if Halloween is not your thing you may enjoy this fun, but chilling tale. I certainly had fun putting a reading together for my Artist's Journey Podcast. So turn the lights down and listen to this classic story.
As I write this the rain has stopped and a stunning blue sky has emerged. The Spring sunshine is bright and welcome. The dust has been washed away. You can sense the grass growing and the sounds of bird-life suggest vibrant activity. Nature is taking full advantage of this moment. Are you? Evidence suggests that most people are not. They prefer to live in the past or the future. This leads to suffering at many levels. But there is a way to solve this problem. South African artists seeking the best fine art supplies from around the world are raving about The Italian Artshop. Situated in Rondebosch, Cape Town, The Italian Artshop stocks some of the top international fine art brands. In this episode of An Artist's Journey Podcast I talk to the owner of the store, Skye Kennedy.
The South African Artist Magazine is South Africa's most popular art enthusiast magazine. In this episode of An Artist's Journey Podcast I interview the Managing Editor Linda Hodnett. Established in 2011 The South African Artist Magazine fills an important niche for artists in South Africa. It is also popular overseas and continues to grow its circulation. But it was not all smooth sailing as you fill find out in this interview.
Have you heard of Lord Alan Sugar? Probably if you watched the UK version of The Apprentice. Almost certainly if you live in the UK. I recently completed his autobiography What You See is What You Get and rather surprisingly I loved it. Why was this a surprise?
In Episode 12 of An Artist's Journey Podcast my special guest is Gavin Van Winsen of Winsen's Canvases. Listen to this episode and find out:
At long last my podcast has been launched. An Artist's Journey is about the trials and successes of an artist's life. The intention is to include interviews with artists, galleries, entrepreneurs and people in the art business who can provide helpful insights. You can find the show on iTunes, Stitcher and on Soundcloud. Please join in and subscribe for weekly episodes. If you are interested in joining me for an interview or have ideas for future shows please drop me a message. No guarantees, but I will be happy to hear from you. I hope you enjoy this concept and find a few useful and entertaining shows in the future. Should artists start a blog? This may seem like a simple question to answer. But there are good reasons why some artists should not blog either. I will get to that too. In this podcast I state the case for artists starting a blog. It can make a BIG difference to an artist's career. Listen to the podcast below or read the transcript. |
