Jackson’s Art 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.

Ask An Artist - NFT's Dec 09, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, Peter and Tom attempt to have an open minded discussion about the ins and outs of the controversial, potentially exciting, and certainly intriguing world of NFTs.
Even for those who don’t know much about them, maybe don’t know anything about them, the presence of NFT's has been unavoidable. It seems to be something taking the art world (and beyond) by storm but what a divider of opinion! Some artists are going all in, other people think they are utter non-sense... with just about every possible opinion in between.

So...what are NFTs? Is it a fad or are they here to stay? How are they changing the art world? As creators, should we all be desperately scrabbling to get into the NFT market now? Are we missing out if we don’t?

Join Peter and Tom for a really engaging and interesting discussion ...

Ask an Artist - Asking for help Dec 02, 2022

Show notes

It is a sad fact that about 20% of small business fail in their first year and around 60% of small businesses fail within the first 3 years. That is indeed a sobering thought for us working artists, trying to earn a living. And the reasons for this? After poor cash flow, the second reason small businesses give is the inability to source and afford help; help to grow, help to promote and help to create the work we are all so passionate about. So today, Peter and Tom discuss the range of ways they have sought help from others to help grow their business and creative practice, alongside other ideas that may help you as well.

Ask an Artist - Interview with Andrew Tischler May 20, 2022

Show notes

In this week's episode, Tom interviews New Zealand based artist, Andrew Tischler.

Andrew has been a professional artist for the past 17 years. He is drawn to vast landscapes, people, objects and animals, painting a wide variety of subjects in a realist style. His goal for every painting is to achieve a convincing sense of reality and break the constraints of the two dimensional surface.

His obsession with realist painting led him to study many of the great masters from the past and seek to understand how they made such magnificent pictures. From this, alongside his passion for painting, he has developed a passion for teaching and is eager to share what he has learnt over the years.

He is not only a very successful painter but he has also amassed a huge following on YouTube having started his channel in 2016 which has now grown to over 400k followers.
Andrew begins by telling Tom a bit about his back story and how he got to be an artist, before he and Tom dive into the world of online content - what is it and how can we create it, alongside creating our art work?
Tom and Andrew discuss the why's and wherefore's, the do's and don'ts and how, if it's ever possible, to create a balance between authentically creating art and creating content. Andrew openly shares his wealth of experience but ultimately concludes by saying that each artist's journey will be unique; in the same way that there isn't just one way to be an Artist, there isn't just one way to create online content as part of your art career.
An insightful interview and a must listen for any Artist or creative considering going into the world of video tutorials.

Ask An Artist - Mailing Lists May 13, 2022

Show notes

Mailing lists – on the face of it, not the most exciting of topics but a crucial part any working, creative business and a fantastic way to stay in touch with an already keen and receptive audience. Both Peter and Tom have developed a newfound love for their mailing lists during the past couple of years and in this episode they talk about what they are, how to collect and manage one, why they can be such an amazing tool and also some of the nitty gritty of being responsible for other people’s information.

Mailing lists can be a wonderful tool for any creator. You have a receptive audience of previous buyers or students, interested parties, right at your finger tips and often they will be genuinely interested, if not actually excited to hear from you! Not only can mailing lists be used to directly sell, you can also use them to help remind people you still exist and they are a great way to take care of those who have supported you and your career so far.
