In this episode, Andrew Gow talks about his career’s early birthing pains, his technique for painting portraits that he regards as art’s greatest challenge and which has brought him widespread acclaim, and how he has recently added narrative paintings to his oeuvre that draw from his personal concerns about the state of the world and from his grounding in art history and ancient myths.
