Welcome back to the Fen Ditton Gallery podcast hosted by Hannah Munby.

This episode features a recent conversation with Past President of the Royal Society of British Artists, James Horton.

James was elected as the president in 2009 and stood down in 2017, returning back to, as he says, the indulgence of being a painter once again. During his time as president of the society, he was a pioneer for young artists and worked hard to provide them a platform after leaving education.

This conversation took place in earlier in the month and includes some of the works that we have as part of our current Spring exhibition. We chat about his marriage to painting and love affair with music, his extended trip to India at the beginning of the pandemic and how his life has changed since he stepped down from the RBA.

I hope you enjoy listening to this episode.
