This week we spoke to best selling author and journalist, Sarah Turnbull. As part of her doctorate, she is writing a fiction book based on the life and works of C19 Australian impressionist, John Russell. He was great friends with Van Gogh, Monet and Matisse amongst other contemporary artists. We spoke to Sarah about his fascinating life, why she decided to write about him, his use of colour and his contemporaries. It was such an interesting chat, we learnt so much about John Russell's life and about the man himself. Sarah is an encyclopedia of knowledge on Russell so she was the perfect person to answer our questions. It made us want to delve more deeply into his work.John Rusell - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Russell_(Australian_painter)Monet and Russell - https://theconversation.com/from-monet-to-rodin-john-russell-australias-french-impressionist-maps-artistic-connections-100249Van Gogh and Russell - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-07-24/john-russell-australias-forgotten-impressionist-van-gogh-matisse/10029284Matisse and Rusell - https://www.theaustralian.com.au/subscribe/news/1/?sourceCode=TAWEB_WRE170_a_GGL&dest=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theaustralian.com.au%2Farts%2Fvisual-arts%2Fmatisse-under-the-influence-of-russell%2Fnews-story%2F108b0ac5a19bb986962d45fe67e4435d&memtype=anonymous&mode=premiumLuke Scibberas and Euan Mcleod at Belle Ile - https://www.northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au/things-to-do/whats-on/belle-ile-euan-macleod-luke-sciberrasSarah's much loved book, Gilead by Marianne Robinson https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/68210.GileadSarah's recent book recommendation - Writers and Lovers by Lily King https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/45289222-writers-lovers
