Are you ready for a challenge to double your painting sales online in 31 days? Are you tired of not selling paintings? Well, three years ago I was in your shoes too. It’s incredibly discouraging to have no one want your beautiful work. Picture it: September 2017. I’m sitting at my computer in my studio wondering what I could do to bring in some income. The six galleries I was in weren’t selling anything and had sold very little of my work the prior year. Two of them, including the Colorado gallery my work was in, had told me they...Read More

Last week I was in peony heaven! I have to say there’s nothing quite like being immersed in beautiful peonies for an entire week. To me it’s always proof of how healing beauty can be.

You’ve made it possible for me to thrive as an artist. You’re so awesome!  Being a self employed artist can come...Read More

“Without a vision the people shall perish.” - Proverbs 29:18 More importantly, do you have a vision that’s greater than yourself? Artists sometimes come to me with the problem of lacking motivation. Last week I talked about one solution to this problem. That was to know WHO you’re doing it for. In that conversation the example I gave was me creating, teaching, and building my business for my younger 12-year-old self. (You can go back and read that too because it’s powerful.) I find that as compelling as that concept is though, it doesn’t always cut the mustard.  Because self-doubt...Read More
