RE: How To NOT Be A Starving Artist...

in #art7 years ago

Well, you definitely seem to be heading in the right direction... you have something a lot of artists do not (I say this as someone who has a small art gallery and fine crafts outlet), which is an understanding of the need to be both creative/artistic and business/marketing. We get SO many artists walk in here with talent and art... but no concept of what goes between "creating" and getting something into a willing and interested buyer's hands.

So congratulations! You're already ahead of the game...

Wow really? That is amazing ehhehe :) Thats a huge compliment considering your someone with an art gallery and fine crafts outlet.
It's so true! Artists should also learn a bit of business hehe :)

The business/marketing is actually more important than the art if you want to survive.
