(Please note: as this was my first attempt, this episode may not be the best start for new listeners – wrong aspect ratio etc! I’m improving my technical and interview skills all the time, please stick with me!)

In the inaugural episode of The Inquisitive Artist, I delve into the rich artistic journey of Rob Moore, an accomplished painter, printmaker, and curator. From his early days on a Leicester council estate to his role as Dean of the Hull School of Art and Design, Rob shares how his artistic passion blossomed through challenges and opportunities.

Discover the impact of rigorous art education, the evolution of his creative process, and the inspiration he draws from landscapes and community. Rob also reflects on the importance of foundational art skills, the shift toward abstract expressionism, and the balance between teaching and personal practice.

Join us for this candid and inspiring conversation about the joys and trials of a life devoted to art, offering insights for artists and creatives navigating their own paths.

Part two will follow, hot on its heels! In it, we dive deeper into Rob’s philosophies on art, the challenges and joys of teaching, and his ongoing projects. Be sure to listen to both episodes for the full story!
