Show Notes
In this episode, we shoot our trailer live on the podcast and get it done straight away. It is always a good thing to get items on your list done straight away if they’re not too difficult and don’t take up much time. If I had put the trailer on the to-do list it would probably still be there today.
Attracta tells us all about her new large linen piece and how she is preparing it for painting, Andrew shows us his painting from last week that he has framed and Sarah goes through her RHA submissions and how she reclaimed an old broken frame and incorporated it into a finished piece with a watercolour inside.
Andrew has written a press release for our local newspaper and Sarah has some exciting news to announce!
We found a baby bird in the archive and nursed it back to health - it just needed some water - it was super friendly and Böjin held out her hand and it hopped up to chill for a little bit. Aria was napping and was so happy to help us release the little birdie back to the wild.

More from IRISH ART - A CONVERSATIONAL PODCAST BETWEEN THREE ARTISTS ANDREW, ATTRACTA AND SARAH EVA MANSON
This is episode two of a two-part interview with visual artist Maria Jordan OReilly. Part one can be found here.
Maria Jordan OReilly is a late-emerging artist in her sixties. Her work is quite eclectic coming from a place of emotion and expresses that through using colour and texture, a mixture of acrylic pouring, mixed media, markers and watercolour. The subject matter of her pieces very from quite dark ideology to very light-hearted and almost whimsical depictions.

In this episode, we talk with the director of the RHA, Patrick Murphy. The Royal Hibernian Academy is an artist-based and artist-oriented institution in Ireland, founded in Dublin in 1823.
In this episode we talk to the incredible artist Francis Tansey who is a professional artist, an international painter best known for his work in geometric, hardedge colour field with op art elements. Tansey studied in the NCAD and is interested in the development of colour in an abstract sense. His influences include Bauhaus, Kandinsky & the colour theory master Johannes Itten. Tansey’s research focuses on how colour is perceived as an international language. In 1985 he became the first artist in residence at the Butler Gallery in Co. Kilkenny, where his brightly coloured geometric acrylic paintings caused great interest.
