Art Juice: A podcast for artists, creatives and art lovers
Does art need a gimmick to succeed? If art has a quickly recognisable ‘hook’ does that make it easier to sell?
This week Alice has been learning the value of taking detours - Louise is in flow with her work and both have been working together to share a free art workshop with Nicholas Wilton which will show you the three most powerful principles you can use to transform your art. Sound good? You can find out more here:

We explore the difference between artists who have settled on a process and/or subject matter that works for them, and those who are continually searching. Perhaps there isn’t as much of a difference as we are assuming. Our discussion ranges from pop art to cubism and from Damian Hirst to a colour-blind Yorkshire farmer. Perhaps it's not that art needs a gimmick to succeed - but that it needs a story, so that others can relate to it.
We also answer a question from a listener, who asks "How much do you concern yourself with contemporary, 'critically relevant' art? How do you navigate the call to innovate versus just following your own pleasure and intuition?"
