This episode's guest is Ronan Bowes! In the conversation you'll hear Ronan share some of his early formative experiences with art and how they helped him in the right direction. Also what practice helped shape his identity as an artist, he expresses his love of materials and how work can take on the studio patina, also part of the interview is talk of painting as installation and blurring the lines of painting and constructions...listen below for more...
I also wanted to send a quick thank you to previous Ahtcast guest Heather Yip for sending me an interview question for Ronan, thanks Heather!
