Lucy Loves Biba Smith

In this episode, I’m joined by Biba Smith, a London based artist with a love for colour whose work is a mix of expressionist, abstract and realism and has been displayed in famous art galleries such as The Boomer Gallery in London.   I myself am a big fan of colour, creativity and imagination and I love powerful individuals who can help bring people’s dreams to life. This is what has often drawn me to Biba’s work. So much so that I recently bought a piece of her art for my partner’s Christmas present.  It was such a pleasure to talk to the artist and delve deeper into the interests and experiences that have influenced her career.    Here are the highlights:  (01:21) How Biba got into painting  (03:57) Failed experiments and kids’ drawings  (07:26) What’s going on in the world of Biba Smith  (13:45) The challenges of being a vegetarian  (16:41) The impact that teachers can have in our lives  (23:07) Travel plans for the future    Biba’s book recommendations:  Bigger than us: The power of finding meaning in a messy world – Fearne Cotton    Find out more about Lucy and listen to more episodes at http://lucygourlay.com
