Welcome to Episode #19 with Chris Weekes, the creative behind ChrisWeeksArt.com. He creates his painting in his home studio in London and Chris describes his paintings as made up solutions to nonexistent puzzles from moments in time!

• how he names his paintings
• what a typical week is like
• what he does to relax
• really great advice for anyone thinking of setting up their own creative business
• how he approaches his painting and getting create.
