Making Art, Taking Breaks and Not Exploding! Hey there, I’m Barrie J Davies – a Brighton-based street pop artist, full-time mischief-maker, professional colour-splasher, and unapologetic creator of all things fun, silly, neon, and gloriously ridiculous – and welcome to my podcast! Right now, my Brighton art studio looks like a neon carnival collided with a comic book and exploded across walls full of graffiti art, pop art prints, mixed media canvases, and urban art murals. There are screen prints and original artworks flying off the table faster than I can stack them, projects bubbling up like fizzy rainbow soda, and enough paint splatters, stencils, and ink drips to make Jackson Pollock look like a neat freak. It’s chaotic, loud, messy… and gloriously alive with creative energy. On this podcast, I share the behind-the-scenes of my life as a Brighton contemporary artist, the strange and silly ideas bouncing around my mind, and all the colourful adventures of creating street pop art, urban art, and pop culture-inspired prints. Some days, I’ll be talking about a brand-new screen print dipped in candy floss, other days I might be rambling about why pigeons look like performance artists, or why glitter should be an essential part of any mixed media artwork. Basically, if it’s ridiculous, neon, and fun – it’s in. This isn’t your typical art podcast. There are no hushed gallery tones, no serious critiques, and no long-winded discussions about “the meaning of art” (yawn). This is about colourful street art, playful pop art, graffiti-inspired creations, and joyful mixed media experiments. Think of it like a rollercoaster made of spray paint cans, glitter bombs, and seaside rock – you never quite know what’s coming next, but it’s guaranteed to be a creative, colourful ride. So buckle up, tune in, and dive headfirst into this seaside storm of Brighton street art, pop art prints, mixed media fun, and urban art chaos. 👉 Check out my artwork at www.barriejdavies.info👉 Follow along on Instagram: @barriejdavies
