Everything You Need to Know About Prints, with Studio Giclée (Fan Favorite Friday))
It's a Friday fan favorite, so today I'm resurfacing one of the episodes y'all keep coming back to: my interview with Chad and Daisy of Studio Giclée in Wilmington, North Carolina. These two are the real deal — Daisy's a painter who studied art and interior design, and Chad grew up working in his family's print shop in Nebraska before spending over a decade doing color correction in LA, including
Seeds vs. Money Makers: Your Holiday Selling Plan Starts in August
Yes, it's August. Yes, we're talking about Christmas. Stick with me, because the artists who do holiday well aren't the ones scrambling in November, they're the ones who planned in the summer.

Your real buyer is closer to you than you think — she's the person who splurged on something last month she didn't need, saved all year for a piece she loved, or bought herself a gift she didn't feel like explaining to anyone. Art isn't a commodity only the wealthy buy. It's bel
Just Start: Killing the Starving Artist Myth
Season two is here, and yes, I know season one somehow ran 250-something episodes and this is still "season two." We're not overthinking it. I took the spring and summer off, and I'm back with a shift: fewer interviews, more solo episodes built around one thing — growing a real, sustainable art business. The interviews aren't gone, and there are 200-plus of them in the archive if you want another
FFF: Lindsey Crafter on Pricing, Pinterest, and the Myth of the Big Following
Lindsey McCord paints under the name Lindsay Crafter, a nickname a boss in New York gave her years ago when she was rigging marshmallows from ceilings for Target and L'Oréal events.

FFF: From a $100 First Sale to Selling Out a Collection in 4 Minutes with Artist Brittany Smith
