In this episode, Tom and Peter interview one of the busiest artists working today. Hashim Akib is an internationally renowned Artist, represented by several galleries in the UK. He has exhibited with The Royal Society of Marine Artists, The Royal Institute of Oil Painters and The New English Art Club. He also writes instructional books, which have been translated into several languages; he teaches here in the UK and abroad, as well as online; he has worked with Daler Rowney to produce teaching DVDs and he regularly writes for magazines… and he still finds time to paint! We’re delighted to get the chance to interview him, to ask, just how does he do it all…?

Hash talks through his artistic and business journey to date, offering insightful and humble business advice to anyone looking to pursue art as a career.
