Description

There’s no neat way to explain what success is because it’s different for every artist. I hope this episode is the start of an ongoing conversation on the subject.

💡HIGHLIGHTS

• Success for artists might include income (sales), exhibitions, leadership roles, achievements, collections, and studio production.
• A few of the diverse stories of success from artist-guests of The Art Biz.
• The importance of aligning the goals for your art and expectations of yourself with how you want your life to be.
• Success requires you to be nimble—to adapt to changing circumstances and be open to risks and failures.
• My best advice: Success doesn’t happen all at once. It’s the result of small wins, each of which must be acknowledged in order to stay motivated and focused on your vision.
