This is a dream of many artists and unfortunately it can seem like a daunting task because honestly there are so many decisions to make.  Decisions that are necessary, sometimes scary, and you don't know if you are doing it 'right.'

As I've built my career, I've learned a lot, made some mistakes, and found a rhythm that works for me and my clients are more importantly my customers are confident to purchase from me.

From a talk that I gave at the Langley location of Opus, I wanted to share the topics that I touched on.   
  • Pricing
  • Prints
  • What to paint
  • How do you find your market
  • Pricing
  • Shipping
  • Multiple styles of artwork
  • Do I need a website
  • Confidence
  • Getting organized
  • How do I organize my time in order to meet the submission/commission deadlines.
  • What to measure to know if I'm even making progress
  • What are you capable of from a spiritual, physical, creative aspect
  • Steps necessary for getting your business together
  • How do I change the style of my art without losing my followers?
  • What if I’m not tech savvy
  • Reading list of inspiring books
  • Does my art matter
  • “It’s so scary putting yourself out there” 

In the coming weeks I will be writing to answer these questions and providing pdf downloads where possible to support you in the growth of your business. 

Let me know if there is a topic that you would like me to cover if you don't see it here simply by leaving a comment below.
