Art in My Home

Arts EN ↓ 40 episodes

Your first look inside the walls of unexpected art enthusiasts. We're all born artists. Give any five your old pencils and paper and they’ll create something wonderful. But when we grow up, art becomes intimidating. We’re conditioned to second guess our taste in art. The pure joy of art a kid feels can get squashed. We want to change that. Co-founder of Bluethumb, George Hartley, and colleague Amy chat to unexpected art collectors - from AFL stars to Reality TV stars, Interior Designers to Artists - and explore the stories behind the art they have in their homes and much much more!
