Jackson's Art Podcast

Unknown

The Jackson’s Art Podcast explores what it means to make art through the voices of established artists and the materials they use. Each week we share stories and expertise from those who create – be they contemporary artists or historical figures. To encourage curiosity and invite dialogue, we take listeners out of the gallery and into the spaces where art is made, shaped, and brought to life. Our podcast consists of three distinct series: Ask an Artist, The Matter of Colour, and Rivalries and Friendships in Art History.  In Ask an Artist, Lisa Takahashi hosts insightful conversations with guest artists in their studios and at exhibitions and events, capturing both their practice and the atmosphere around their work. The Matter of Colour, presented by Evie Hatch, co-creator of Jackson’s Pigment Stories book and online series, explores the fascinating histories of artists’ colours from antiquity to the present day. In Rivalries and Friendships in Art History, Louise Reynolds and Evie Hatch uncover the clashes, romances, and companionships that shaped artists’ lives, revealing the human stories behind art history. Above all, Jackson’s Art Podcast is curious and accessible, whether you’re a professional artist or an absolute beginner. By bringing audiences closer to artists, their practices, and the ideas and histories that shape their work, we aim to share valuable insights into creative practice, spark new ideas, and deepen understanding of how art is made. Follow @jacksons_art on Instagram and browse our Artists’ Blog for more unique content, films, and writing on art – all produced by the Jackson’s Team. Get involved in our community by creating alongside other artists at one of our Plein Air Days, joining conversations on navigating the art world through our Webinars, or connecting with fellow artists in our Facebook Groups.

    Ask An Artist - Passing the Torch; Introducing Lisa Takahashi

    Welcome back to the podcast! We have had a few months "off-air" and in that time we have been busy working on a new direction for the podcast. Ask An Artist was founded in 2019, by artist friends and colleagues, Laura Boswell and Peter Keegan. In 2022, Laura stepped down as co-host to concentrate on other projects and Tom Shepherd has been keeping Peter company behind the microphone ever since. Now, 4 years on, it's time for a new chapter for Ask An Artist... We are delighted that Lisa Takahashi and the team at Jackson's Art Supplies, are going to be taking over the podcast reins. In this episode, Peter and Tom interview Lisa, find out about her artistic practice, her career at Jackson's and what is in store for Ask An Artist going forward. Peter and Tom (and producer Kimberley behind the scenes) say their goodbyes, their thank yous and hand over the microphone to Lisa, to take the podcast forward.  We couldn't be more delighted about the safe hands the podcast is in with Lisa and the team at Jackson's Art Supplies. We're really excited to step out from behind the microphone and become avid listeners, along with all of you, and see how the podcast develops with its new hosts. The new episodes, from the new team, will be out from Autumn 2026. Best of luck Lisa and team! And thank you, to you, the listeners! You can read more about Lisa, and see her work, at: lisatakahashi.com, instagram.com/takahashiprints and facebook.com/artistlisatakahashi
