#38 with Tom Bunnell
Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists.
Today I speak with the Washington DC-based artist Tom Bunnell. Tom received his BA and BFA in Art and Art History from the University of Oregon in 1995 and his MFA in Painting from American University in 1998. Tom has exhibited nationally and internationally and he currently teaches art at St Stephen’s & St Agnes School and American University.
In today’s episode, Tom and I discuss his origins as an abstract painter, his drawings, painting from observation, motifs, Tom’s confidence in materials and mistrust of process, how these days he efficiently utilizes shorter amounts of studio time, the need to protect the ideas within the studio, and we also discuss some of Tom’s recent paintings in depth. We also trash Philip Guston a little bit.
Enjoy the show.
