Making a living from your art (266)

Making a living from your art (266)

Making a living from your art takes more than passion and talent. In this solo episode, Alyson Stanfield walks through the real considerations — from committing to your studio practice to making friends with marketing — for artists who are serious about turning their practice into a livelihood.

It starts with a question worth considering: is this really for you?

In this episode, Alyson covers:

  • Why marketing your art too early can undermine everything you're working toward
  • The financial math many artists avoid, and why ignoring it is not an option
  • The old stories that hold you back and what it means to let them go
  • Why your artist community is a valuable asset
  • The difference between being busy and being productive
  • Structure is what makes creative freedom possible
  • Why you need to make friends with marketing.
