United Kingdom8 months ago - Great show for artists with minimal fluff
Ask an Artist is the best art podcast because it delivers useful information and insights for working artists (and those who wish to be) with far less of the fluff and personal TMI of many other art related podcasts.
I enjoy the listener question episodes quite a bit. The hosts tackle questions both big and small with equal seriousness and professionalism.
