Ep 99: Wendy Sharpe and ‘Magic’
You can also watch this episode as a video here. To hear the episode as an audio podcast click on ‘play’ above.
Leading artist Wendy Sharpe talks with me in her Sydney studio about her fabulous show ‘Magic’ at King Street Gallery on William.
We also talk about the controversy around her Sulman finalist painting ‘The Witches’ in 2016, her involvement in the innovative SBS show Life Drawing Live, the story behind her striking Archibald portrait of Magda Szubanski and lots more.
I previously interviewed Wendy on the podcast in 2018 where we talked about her life and how she became an artist. You can hear that episode here.
‘Magic’ continues at King Street Gallery on William until 24 October 2020.
