#22 Abi (weird_watercolours) Artist, Business-owner, Comedian

Abi and I touch on the hilarious, haunting and heartwarming aspects of growing a creative business online, and her chaotic but highly productive capacity to generate ideas and transform them into sellable art and viral videos, which works seamlessly thanks to her organised, efficient other half, Audrey.

There is an increased consciousness of buying Irish, and buying from small family-run businesses and Abi and Audrey are a wonderful example of a hard-working, values-driven, compatible partners who clearly care about what they do, as do their loyal and growing customer base.

We are not only enjoying Abi's artistic output, but she is also a rising comedic star, displaying some hard and painful truths about the Irish psyche, giving the simple advice:

"The best remedy comes from the harsh Irish mother to make you pull your pants up".

Their well-known Jesus Christ calendar, which was embroiled in a scurrilous scandal (!) is a comment on vernacular. We discuss the concept of blasphemy, and the unique relationship the Irish have with humour and laughter being a gift from God.

Absolutely loved chatting to you, a chara (friend).

Míle buíochas! Many thanks :)

I encourage you all to check out www.weirdwatercolours.com for beautiful quality, funny Christmas gifts :)
