Über den Podcast
The ‘Jackson’s Art Podcast’ brings together ‘Ask An Artist’ and more ideas and conversations from across the Jackson’s Team. The Podcast explores what it means to make art through the voices of established artists and the materials they use. Every month, 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.

Shownotes
Join Lisa Takahashi in South Somerset for a studio visit with printmaker Lucy Rodgers, exploring how personal stories, everyday objects, and the reduction linocut process shape Lucy’s colourful, expressive prints.
Lucy discusses her journey from sculpture to screen printing to relief printmaking, how painting and sketchbook drawings help her develop ideas, and the challenges and creative possibilities of reduction linocut. She shares how sentimental objects, family memories, and the South Downs landscape are inspiring a new direction in her still life prints, as well as how her wood engraving pushes her printmaking practice further. The conversation also explores finding your artistic voice, overcoming creative blocks, embracing mistakes, and learning to work with the unpredictable nature of printmaking.

Four women a year were accepted into the Académie in the late 18th century, and in 1783 they admitted two of the most sought-after painters in Paris. They were portrayed as rivals to a captive public, but who pitted these artists against each other?
In this episode, we discuss the lives and careers of Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun and Adélaïde Labille-Guiard. We delve into their contributions to Rococo and Neoclassicism, the context of their era for women artists in France, and their proximity to the ill-fated Queen Marie Antoinette. Here we share the story of the sensational exhibition designed to draw a comparison between these pioneering artists - who dared to make self-portraits - and the national upheaval that changed their lives for good.
This episode is part of the ‘Rivalries and Friendships in Art History’ series, hosted by Louise Reynolds and Evie Hatch, from the Jackson’s Art Podcast. Louise is an artist, tutor, and art writer whose studio practice informs her insights on art history and techniques. Evie is an art historian and writer specialising in the histories of artists’ pigments and materials. She is the co-creator of the ‘Pigment Stories’ series.

An accidental discovery in a Berlin laboratory found its way into Rococo paintings and Japanese woodblock prints. How did this colour travel so far, and what made it different from earlier blues?
Evie Hatch traces the story of Prussian Blue, from eighteenth-century Europe to Japan’s nineteenth-century “blue revolution”. She explores its unusual chemistry, remarkably modern marketing campaign and early problems with fading, and asks why it is often called the first modern synthetic pigment.
This episode is part of ‘The Matter of Colour’, hosted by Evie Hatch, from the Jackson’s Art Podcast. Evie is an art historian and writer specialising in the histories of artists’ pigments and materials, and co-creator of the Pigment Stories series.

What does it take to get a printmaker’s work from the studio to a busy art fair? Lisa Takahashi takes listeners behind the scenes, from planning and preparation to setting up a stand and hearing from fellow exhibitors.
In this episode, Lisa shares the realities of preparing for an art fair as a printmaker, including selecting and transporting original prints, framing and presentation, setting up a display, pricing artwork, and talking to visitors. Recorded at the Spike Print Fair at Spike Island Studios, Bristol, she offers an insight into the atmosphere of a contemporary print fair and the work that goes into exhibiting and selling original linocuts, woodcuts, screen prints, and other forms of original printmaking. Along the way, Lisa reflects on the community surrounding printmaking and asks what it’s like to take work out of the studio and share it with a wider audience.
Features conversations with:
James Green, screen and relief print artist with landscape and nature-based subjects
Steph Renshaw, multi-disciplinary printmaker depicting the natural world
Ben Goodman, wood engraver specialising in multi-layered reduction portraits.

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!

Shownotes
In this episode, Peter and Tom dive into something that sounds a bit grand and serious, but actually sits right at the heart of what Artists do — creating a body of work. Whilst it might sound like something that happens after twenty years and a few gallery retrospectives, really, it’s just about building a thread of consistency and intent in what you make. Whether you’re a painter, sculptor, printmaker or photographer, having a body of work isn’t about quantity — it’s about connection. Peter and Tom discuss how that develops, how to recognise it and, as always, some top tips and best practice from their experience as working Artists.

In this episode, Peter interviews art industry expert, Claudia Kennaugh.
Claudia is the founder of Art and People; a Bristol based art advisory service, offering guidance to artists and collectors. Before setting up Art and People, Claudia worked in the arts for 15 years, first as a musician and performing artist, then gallery manager, art advisor and partner of the Hollywood Road Gallery in London. She has seen both sides of the table - the artist’s perspective, but also the gallery’s - and she now helps artists navigate that sometimes rather opaque system of pricing, sales, and professional relationships.

In this episode, Peter and Tom interview Mary-Anne Bartlett - brilliant artist, much-loved tutor, and founder of Art Safari.
This episode is about all things "art tutoring" and "art holidays"; the ups, the downs, what it really takes to run a successful retreat and how to find your feet if you are thinking of becoming a tutor yourself.
Because when you get it right, combining art, great people, inspiring venues, and a sense of adventure is a truly special thing.
In the first part of the episode, Mary-Anne talks about her artistic and marketing background and the hard work involved in setting up and building a company. She shares some key business tips to do with marketing, planning, building relationships and the importance of doing a SWOT analysis on your business but overall, she talks about the joy she gets from tutoring and taking artists and students to beautiful and exciting places to paint.
In the second half of the episode, Peter, Tom and Mary-Anne talk more about what it takes to be an art tutor; how to start, how to develop, finding your style and the skill of teaching what you love, to other people.
In conclusion, Tom asks Mary-Anne about the abundance of art holiday providers and how students, and tutors, can weed out a "good" one from a "bad" one; what are the questions we should be asking, and how do we know who we can trust to work and travel with.

Shownotes
In this episode, Tom and Peter discuss the different options open to creatives in terms of "getting qualified". With the rise of the internet over the past couple of decades, there has been an increase in the number of certificates, diplomas, courses, workshops and even degrees available - but what does each one entail, which ones are worth their salt and which ones do the art world actually care about?
In the first half of the episode, Peter talks about his own experience of going to university to study a Fine Art degree; what this can entail, include, facilities available and what you come out with at the end. They also discuss a one-year, foundation diploma, and share the experiences of colleagues and friends who have completed one of these.
In the second half of the episode, they discuss the myriad of less "formal" art courses, workshops and qualifications available - where these take place, how they might look and how you might choose the right one for you.
