Creative Parents: Georgia Spain (contemporary artist and mother of one) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello readers, this week’s interview is coming to you from Ischia, an island off the coast of Naples in Italy. I’m in Europe for my best friend’s wedding in Spain, and my youngest sister is expecting her first baby any day in the UK. It feels quite fitting to share Georgia Spain’s interview this week, mostly as she had her first baby just a couple months ago, and to muse on this magical, surreal, and frankly, quite crazy time when another human joins us on earth. From a gooey, jelly being to a r
Creative Parents: Sarah Ayoub (journalist, book author, researcher, and mother of three) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on Creative Parents, I have Sarah Ayoub, who wears a lot of hats as a writer and researcher, but at the heart of her work is advocating for diversity in literature. I came across her work in Art Guide and an incredible essay she wrote on motherhood and art — naturally, I invited her here.

I also recognise that it's very hard for dads to talk about their experience — especially i

Hello readers — doesn’t the time fly! I would love to make this a weekly newsletter again, but my weeks are so jam-packed that they disappear before my eyes. My theory is that if enough readers become paid subscribers, I can prioritise this over paid work, or hire an assistant! So thank you to my paid subscribers and all my unpaid subscribers for motivating me to jump on my computer at 10.30 pm to get these interviews together! They are a labour of love, and I feel so entwined with the artist wh
Creative Parents: Ember Fairbairn (contemporary artist and mother of two) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s so wonderful to feature Ember Fairbairn after being involved in her art for several years. I’m currently in Hobart on a solo (jampacked - see my insta stories) work, art and food trip, so this intro from me is a quick one, but I was keen to get her interview up today as her exhibition, Hiraeth at Sophie Gannon Gallery, closed last week. I always love to pair these Q&As with recent exhibitions or projects when I can, as so much energy and l
