So since you've been painting with bright colours have you not noticed any knock-on effect with other colour that you're drawn to for other things?

Have you not felt like, oh, I could be braver with what clothes I choose to wear or

No, although I haven't bought any new clothes for so long because I covered them all

with paint. Hi and welcome to episode 25 of Art Juice. This is behind the scenes conversations about art and the

creative life with me Louise Fletcher and me Alice Sheridan. And today we're

going to dive into the topic of color. This is based on a listener question.

Thank you for all the lovely questions she keeps sending us. And this seemed like a good topic to cover in more depth than just a quick segment.

So we're going to talk about color, how we use it, how we feel about it, how we mix it.

We don't actually know what we're going to talk about yet until we get into it, but we shall find out.

And it might be a little bit tricky talking about colour where you can't actually see anything.

Yes.

So we're going to say things like, look at this beautiful maroon color that I've just made.

But before we get into that meaty subject, what have you been up to this week, Alice?

Well, first of all, I've got to give you news on my is he isn't he a scam buyer from last week. Do you remember?

Yes. So I had a I sent this picture off heart in my mouth as I said and I had a

photograph of it already hanging on the wall sent to me so it arrived okay few and he got it up on the wall quickly

good he's not sending it back and he said please can you please can you call me so

we had a conversation last week after we recorded and in that I said to him, you know, how did you how did you find me? Because that's always interesting. You know, we put out all these things. We do all these things and when somebody comes as I say out of the blue you never quite know what's led to it

So the story is he found me via John Lewis website. Oh, oh,. So for those of you in the States, John Lewis is a department store in the UK and they recently

have got some of my paintings that they produce as prints and to be honest you really don't get very much money for them but I thought why not let's try this this is an experiment let's see

what happens I don't know I haven't had my first quarterly account yet so I

don't know how sensible financial idea that is, but clearly in this sense it has paid off already.
