An Interview with Tracey English

June 13, 2022 12:00 - 38 minutes - 26.2 MB

This episode has been re-released after a bit of a tech-glitch (totally my fault!) and it previously disappearing!  I LOVED this chat with Tracey so much that there was no way it was just vanishing into the podcast ether. Tracey lives in South West London and her work is an explosion of colour texture and detail and with so much story telling woven into each scene and character that she creates. It doesn’t surprise me at all that Tracey herself is a natural story teller and so engaging to ...

I missed you!

June 08, 2022 13:00 - 12 minutes - 8.47 MB

I have a confession!  I made a slip-up with my podcast host and all the previous episodes were deleted.  Over the next few weeks I am re-sharing them as well as two more interviews with some incredible artists I had the pleasure of chatting to.  This mini-episode is a little about me and where I plan to take this podcast and why. I hope 2022 is treating you well. Lucy

An Interview with Kirsty Elson

June 08, 2022 10:00 - 35 minutes - 24.6 MB

Kirsty is an artist who creates sculptures made from driftwood and other treasures which she finds on her local beach in Cornwall. I was absolutely delighted when she agreed to be interviewed on the Making Your Way podcast ... In this episode I talk to Kirsty about her process, her journey and what brings her joy, and much more! When the very first idea for this podcast came to me I wrote a list of dream guests and Kirsty was at the very top, when she said Yes I was absolutely over the moon...

Mindful Walking & Creative Inspiration

August 19, 2021 11:00 - 16 minutes - 11.3 MB

This week, I am doing something a little different, so here is a mini-episode about creative inspiration and walking in nature.  This is a theme that has so far been shared by all of the artists I have spoken to, this is their go-to source of inspiration and so it's something I wanted to delve into a little.  Thanks for listening.  Please don't forget to subscribe and review the podcast. Here is a link to the walking meditation I mentioned https://open.spotify.com/episode/2gsKjYu7gpzrKu...

Chloe Giordano - Art, Life and Authenticity

August 12, 2021 12:00 - 50 minutes - 34.7 MB

In this episode, I am speaking to Artist Chloe Giordano.  Chloe’s work is exquisitely detailed embroidery, that blends her skills as an illustrator with needle-art.  If you haven’t seen her work, then do look her up, it will give you an understanding of the precision, charm and delicate nature of what she creates.   Chloe’s work isn’t bound by any traditional rules of embroidery, instead, she works with a simple straight stitch but as you will know or see from looking at any of her finished ...
