Tune in for an honest, funny and thoughtful chat with realism artist Alex Fleming. Alex's exit from Instagram was a huge inspiration for me to leave the platform myself! It was so refreshing talking to a creative who is thriving on (as Alex says) 'The Dark Side of the Moon'.
We also discussed Alex's autism diagnosis at age 37, and how life has been slowly unfolding since. Main talking points:
- What it was like getting his autism diagnosis at 37
- Why he quit social media + how things have been since
- Tips / advice for anyone considering leaving social media
- His experience + thoughts on working with galleries
- His journey with realism + becoming an artist
- What gets him excited to create + his Home series
- His theory on odd numbers
... and so much more. Hope you enjoy :)
