“I wish this had been available years ago when I was starting out. Especially helpful for those at the beginning of their journey but well worth listening to at any stage for reminders and reiterations of good practice. ”

“I have followed Laura Boswell on Facebook for a number of years. Always informative and generous with her skills and processes, I have learned so much from Laura. The Ask an Artist Podcasts are so well structured, relevant and well produced...thanks no doubt to the Talented Mr B. Peter Keegan is insightful and professional and I will be following his work too!”

“Thank you Laura and Peter for a super collection of Podcasts. I’m impressed with the chatty style and easy listening style (I listen whilst running). The variety of topics is very useful and the bite-size nature makes it ideal to grab some impartial advice on the go. Please keep producing them!”

“Thank you for making this podcast. I’ve found it really helpful and grounding. Please keep making new episodes ”

“Thank you so much for this podcast of honest, informative and thought-provoking discussions about the business of being an artist. It has answered so many of my questions. I highly recommend it!”

“Thank you so much for this podcast! It is really interesting to hear your experiences and professional tips and tricks. There is not a huge amount out there on the day-to-day life and work of an artist, so this is really valuable. I am 17 and I have been doing the first year of a UAL Art and Design Extended Diploma, but have deferred the second year for health reasons, and am now doing an online Art History A-Level in the meantime. So for anyone starting out – it is worth a listen!”

“Just brilliant at getting down to the nitty gritty of what it’s like to be a working artist. The presenters, Laura & Peter, have a friendly and warm manner which is easy to listen to and they both have a wealth of experience and give grounded, realistic advice. They are clearly real grafters who willingly and generously share what they have learnt on their journeys (including their mistakes along the way!). This is an invaluable podcast for anyone wanting to pursue a career as an artist.”

“Interesting, useful and fun!
Great podcast. Lively and personable presenters and full of inspiration and information.”

“Thank you so much Laura and Peter for your wonderful podcast, covering a vast range of relevant areas with experience and humour! Great to hear both yourselves and your guests speaking from different perspectives, really helpful, practical advice.”

““I am really enjoying this podcast, it comes at a key time for me starting back on my journey as an artist after having children. I’m listening to this podcast whilst creating my first commission for a while and I’m gleaming so much encouragement and wisdom along the way from Laura and Peter. Thank you!! Keep going!!””

“As an artist starting out there are so many aspects to think about ans it can be daunting. Straight forward advice from two highly respected professional artists. I certainly wish this had been available when I started my journey to become an artist!”

“If I could give this 10 stars I would. Informative, intelligent, professional, authentic. I’ve have been searching for this sort of advice and am so glad I have finally found it. Lovely listening to the natural and engaging rapport between the two artists. Excellent choice of topics and look forward to hearing more. ”

“I’ve been listening to the podcasts during the Covid-19 Lockdown. It’s been invaluable to have ‘contact’ with artists and the rewards of someone else’s voice and ideas during this time of social isolation. Thank you both. The podcasts are rejuvenating and have kept me motivated. ”

“This is a really good podcast. It’s very informative and discusses everything we artists have to wrestle with. If you’re just starting out in your art career it’s good to hear from two experienced artists and gain their insight in how to deal with different challenges. Laura and Peter are very natural in their presentation and it’s a really easy listen. ”

“Simply brilliant set of broadcasts. Thank you for sharing your professional and creative ideas. Very inspirational and motivating!”

“Thank you Laura and Peter . I love listening to the podcast and find it so helpful and useful. I enjoy your easy chatty style and feel an instant virtual connection . Its splendid for artists starting out or the ones who have come back to art after a break but theres plenty of advice for established artists as well . I am grateful as I feel I am a part of a community and get reminded of everything my good practice should involve, plus lots of practical advice . Keep this going .”

“I am just loving your podcasts...they are getting me through a very long and hot summer (I’m talking over 40 degrees!). You are an inspiration and of great value to me. Thank you so much. ”

“Thank you so much Peter and Laura! I am loving your podcast! It’s like you’ve been reading my mail (how cliched a commend!) but so aptly describes my total absorption in episode after episode. I am blown away at how generous you both are...sharing experiences with us...I feel so encouraged. Thank you.”

“Thank you so much for doing this podcast. I’m a mum of two and always regretted not doing an art degree. Now that the ‘little one’ is starting school I’m hoping to start producing some prints and even selling a few! What I was struggling to find was advice about the ‘non art’ side of being an artist. This is where your podcast in invaluable. Thank you so much, hearing your personal experiences makes it so reassuring. Most of all the encouragement you give is wonderful and so motivating.”

“Inspirational top tips and personal insight; always generously shared in a. down-to-earth, relaxed and encouraging way - thank you so much Laura and Peter.”
