In this week's episode, Leo and guest co host Verity Babbs chat to Swedish contemporary artist Bobo Wallmansson. 
-
 Our chat covers Bobo's first foray into the arts, how his mother's harsh criticism changed his artistic direction, ( for the better). What it's like being a successful artist in the 21st Century, and a whole lot more.
-
 Bobo has a somewhat unorthodox art career in that he doesn't have large gallery representation, but still manages to sell work internationally to an eager collection base. He discusses his rock star approach to being an artist and why he thinks social media is a tool for good in terms of fostering community.
-
We discussed the art market in Sweden and which artists he particularly feels inspired by. Of course we got onto why he paints those adorable monkeys and what the secret behind them really is...
