In this episode, Fred talks about his early career as an artist during the heyday of London’s Soho where he came across many of the famous characters of the time, the events that led him to becoming a landscape artist, how and why he became attracted to The Fens and, more recently, The Flow country in Scotland. He describes his artistic process, and talks about the politics of land and the precarious future that The Fens faces.
