I mean the whole thing covers right through you know you can find joy in every little bit once you get it.

Hi and welcome to art Jesus is this is Honest, Generous and Humorous Conversations to feed your creative soul and get you thinking with me Louise Fletcher and today Alice is on a short break and I am joined by a special guest. I'm joined by Annie Tempest,

British artist living in Norfolk. I was about to say Yorkshire, from Yorkshire living in Norfolk.

Hi Annie.

Hi Louise, lovely to be here, very thrilled to be asked.

And Annie's agreed to do that's at quite short notice so I'm really grateful to her for being here.

Annie, I'm going to say what I know about you as my introduction and then you can tell people.

We've known each other for a couple of years.

We met via Instagram weirdly, even though I know your brother and I

know the place where you were brought where you spent some time brought and

Hall in Yorkshire where your family is from but we knew each other from Instagram. But Annie is a cartoonist, a famous

cartoonist with a history of drawing cartoons for multiple newspapers, the Express and then the Daily Mail and then Annie has a very famous series which has been running in Country Life magazine forever called Tottering By Gently, which we'll talk about, I'm sure which is based on your family, your own family.

And she's an award-winning cartoonist, but on top of that she's also an amazing sculptor, which she's been doing for years.

She's also a painter.

She's basically just an incredibly creative person and I'm talking to her in a beautiful studio I can see behind you.

Have I got all of that right any and have I missed anything that I should have said?

No you've got all that right I'm I'm one of those I think a lot of artists are what they call

poly potentialists. I mean you're either a creative soul or you're not and I can see from

looking at you on Instagram that you know you can turn your hand to anything as can I it's just a matter of putting the hours in to decide what you want to do and I keep keep finding something else more shiny like your course, find your joy.

I absolutely loved and I know I've been an artist for way longer than you but I

learned so much from you and I think we have to remember that everybody has a different path and everybody has a little nugget which you can learn from and to put in your own little satchel of things that you carry around with you.

And joy is a really important part of art and in fact more important than any of the final
