September 29, 2023 09:10 - 45 minutes - 41.4 MBWe have been artists making art for decades, and we've learnt a thing or two about what artists should avoid or be aware of. It still seems impossible to get recognised for your art these days. But we have to keep going. It would be amazing if someone would come along and support what we do. So, don't give up. Keep making great art and being the artist you were born to be. We hope this list helps you along the way to being the best artist you can be. Peace. --- Send in a voice message: h...

Podcast 11 - Artist Update - Prints of Prince - Tschabalala Self - Hauser and Wirth new gallery.
June 18, 2023 14:05 - 39 minutes - 36.2 MBHello Everyone, we hope you are doing fine, We are back with another Podcast even though we are not getting any new subscribers. I feel there is worse content on Youtube. We do this because we need to. I guess it's a form of therapy. We love art and cannot tap into the ideal position of making a living from our passion. It is an extremely frustrating experience. We catch up with our latest endeavours and look a the tiniest bit of art news. Check out our website for some of the work we hav...

December 04, 2022 09:37 - 54 minutes - 49.9 MBThis podcast was our best one yet, sadly the video didn't work this time. Also, it took my crappy computer 10 hours to render... If anyone would like to sponsor us with a new kick-arse computer, that would be nice #nvidia. So we kicked off setting up the studio space wall with a couple of chosen art pieces, and a bit of banter whilst adjusting the kit. A very affordable print by Mark Elliott Smith and a painting made by yours truly. Firstly a special thank you to Stems Gallery Belgium ...

Our conversation is completely spontaneous and things play out according to our current state of mind, which is built on decades of professional practise as artists. We hope you find something interesting in our ramblings, foll...
Living Too Late #5
March 08, 2022 14:48 - 49 minutes - 68.3 MBHello, welcome to our 5th Podcasts for the Living Too Late Collective. In this episode me and Mark talk about our recent joint exhibition, Dream Jams Fuel. We try to get a bit relaxed with the introduction of some ambient music, however, it did get a bit sleepy at times. We discuss how the exhibition went and how the police came to the rescue over an assault on myself (sorry, it wasn't Mark). Exhibitions organised by and run by artists is not an easy undertaking, generally us artists are no...
Living Too Late #4

Living Too Late #3
January 17, 2022 12:22 - 56 minutes - 78.2 MBWe have a discussion on art NFTs and how I bit the bullet and went ahead and published my first time based NFT titled 'Thinking on Thinking #1'. We managed to get through the conversation without Mark's head imploding and I find that I'm beginning to sound like an advocate of the crypto based, digital art craze. Both Mark and myself agreed that time based NFT art had more to offer than an 8 bit graphic of a monkey smoking a banana. We come to terms with the darker side of trading and collect...
Living Too Late #2
December 13, 2021 06:28 - 46 minutes - 63.3 MBSitting down with artist Mark Elloitt Smith to discuss his latest painting 'The Fixed But Fluid Pattern Of Absolute Suggestion'. I've been working alongside Mark for about 10 years and it wasn't until the first Covid lockdown in 2020 that we first started talking about our art practices and how we could start to work together to create more opportunities. I came up with the idea of an artist collective to help make exhibiting our work to the public more affordable, later the podcast was bor...

Interview with artist Melanie Berman
January 22, 2021 17:40 - 1 hour - 98.6 MBAnother Living Too Late artist interview by Ollie Smith, I get to chat with the very talented artist Melanie Berman. Her work is characterised by luscious use of colour and bold shapes set against a either large brush marks or flat surfaces, forming multi layered abstract landscapes of time. Within these forms she explores connotations of home, identity, rural land and the personification of nature within her painting. Drawing on the visible and an inner awareness she also uses historical,...
Reacting to Damien Hirst's Instagram Q&A
May 30, 2020 12:34 - 54 minutes - 74.3 MBWe got together via phone call and Zoom to discuss the recent Damien Hirst Q&A on his Instagram channel. Well, to be honest we were more interested in discussing Covid19 lockdown and capitalism... We eventually got onto Mr Hirst's Q&A and found that we couldn't ignore the fact that it was a bit of a conundrum coming to terms with one of the world's wealthiest living artists today and the normal bloke persona he seems to be projecting these days. It was interesting to discuss him though even ...
Interview with artist: Rachel Camilleri
May 23, 2020 18:35 - 49 minutes - 68.7 MBWe find out about the British artist Rachel Camilleri and her studio practice, what makes her motivated and how she is coping with the "lockdown" situation. I was impressed with how Rachel Camilleri has taken to social media marketing and used it to super-charge her professional studio practice, it seems that there is not much that is going to be able to hold her back, even the kids, sorry kids (super-mum!). I hope you take something away from the interview and it help you to rethink your a...

Mark's choices really make sense if you look at his amazing paintings, listen till the end to find out what his "Desert Island White Cube" will look like. Thanks for listening and please check out Mark's paintings over on the Living Too Late website: https:/...
Artist interview: Michael Falzoni
May 14, 2020 20:44 - 59 minutes - 81.9 MBI interview artist MIchael Falzoni and discover he's always been a bit of an outsider... We called those people hippies back in the day.

3 Three films every artist must watch
May 13, 2020 21:00 - 22 minutes - 30.3 MBThere are many other films but these are my first 3 films that I feel every artist should watch. Of course there are artist that are just not into films but who cares about those type anyway they are obviously rubbish! (lol... there is a chance that some people have an equally poor sense of humour and need to be explained that I'm not serious). There will be many more films to come and film history to boot. Perhaps I should spend more time on art??? Hope you enjoy the Pod as I'm still lear...
Are artists ever really satisfied with their work.
May 06, 2020 20:59 - 49 minutes - 68.5 MBFirst off, my apologies for poor audio recorded from Zoom, it really is shocking that a free service can be so bad at this...

Living Too Late April #1
April 20, 2020 15:30 - 43 minutes - 39.5 MBWhat do artist do when they can't get to their studios whilst in a pandemic lock down. It's not terribly exciting or entertaining but it is what it is.

Thought Of The Day ~1
January 18, 2020 18:18 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MBMy first go at recording my random thoughts of the day. I tried to keep it about art in general which is my main focus for this channel. I introduce my new way of making art with resin and some thoughts on the comments I receive on the style of my paintings. I think this could have gone better and still trying to understand how to use my mixer and control my mic. Onwards and upwards.

Two Pages HHhH Part 1
December 12, 2019 17:26 - 14 minutes - 13.6 MBReading the introduction to the very fine book HHhH by Laurent Binet. I have a go of reading just two pages, after which I do speak about those two pages and what it leaves me thinking. I've started adding sounds and music to these Podcasts, in this episode I use a very small part of Steve Reich's amazing and brilliant Different Trains, Yidish WWII folk song and the sound of wartime trams from the BBC sounds library. ...and as always the very brief section of Living Too Late by The Fall is ...

This Podcast will also continue to showcase these books and then also introduce ...
