    If you've ever wanted to take art lessons from some of your favourite musicians, then you're in luck.

    Google Arts & Culture have launched their new series of Art Zoom, and it features some of the biggest musicians in the world.

    FKA twigs, The 1975's Matty Healy and Grimes all feature in the series, and they're talking about their favourite paintings. They all have a great appreciation of art, and the impact it can have on their music.

    In her episode, FKA twigs talks about the beauty of Artemisia Gentileschi's Mary Magadelene In Ecstasy, and how it influenced her album MAGDALENE. 

    She says the painting, and Mary Magadelene in general, seems so poised and in control. This is in direct opposition to her music, because "the irony is in finishing my music I found deep wildness, a looseness, an acceptance, a release. That’s exactly what I’m experiencing in this painting.”
