We finished all of that just yesterday, so I can proudly say that we've accomplished everything we wanted to do, and have learned a lot along the way.Bucharest is still a hot mess.

John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastRomania: Here We ComeJust want to give you guys an update on the Romania experiment. We leave in a week, and will fly to Istanbul, then on to Bucharest. We'll be in Romania for just over three weeks, and in that time, we'll need to finalize the establishment of a business, open a bank account, secure the services of an accountant, scope out the art scene, and possibly look at some real estate.

John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastArtists Working Abroad: PodcastLet me set the stage for our dilemma. We have a bit of cash now between our savings and money we inherited from Mom and Dad. We’ve looked around Houston, and indeed around Texas, and we simply can’t afford to purchase a property that would support our goals and dreams for the business. We do not qualify for a loan, since we’re freelancers and don't have a steady source of income. Art sales have been improving after Covid, but those sales could evaporate at any time. Selling art has severe peaks and valleys, and with no other st...2022-07-2923 min
John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastExpat Artists: Art Life PodcastBogdan and I recently sat down with Jenny Guarino, a fluid artist who maintains a working studio in our building, Silver Street Studios in Houston. We’ve known Jenny for several years, and have not only been impressed with her amazing artwork, but as well with her rather ambitious annual travel schedule. Jenny and her husband are Australian, but her husband’s extended family still reside in Italy. They maintain a life in Houston, but regularly travel for extended periods to Australia and Europe as well.As Bogdan and I try to plot out the trajectory of the...2022-07-1523 min
John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastHow Present Does an Artist Need to Be?Having a good week this week. We've had some good sales at the studio, and it's looking like this may be a really strong month for us after all. If you've been listening to other episodes, you'll know that we recently have been looking at buying some property in which to base our art business. You may also remember that our plans pretty much fell through as we were unable to secure a loan as freelancers. Looks now like we're staying where we are, and making some renovations to our home to make it more conducive to our plans....2022-06-2120 min

John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastThe Importance of RoutineThe importance of routine for creatives seems to me to be essential, even if we think we don't want it. I have found that there is a huge benefit to my creativity, production, and work/life balance when I have a basic framework of order, schedule, and routine in my life. I think you may have experienced the same.As artists, or creative professionals, we need to feel as though we are free to express ourselves without restriction, to have spontaneity, to follow the art where it leads us. But I have found that when I have structure aro...2022-05-3117 min
John Bishop Fine Art : PodcastWe've Reached a Crossroad: PodcastOur art business has reached a crossroad, but that's not a bad thing. Over the past 7 years, Bogdan and I have been able to create a small freelance creative company that somehow survived almost three years of pandemic. Against all odds, and despite our total lack of preparation, we have built a collector base, and an inventory of art that sells consistently. Of course, we don't yet sell enough to live off our art, but we manage to stay afloat due to savings that we accrued over the years. Those savings are finite, and we know that we must take...2022-04-1925 minJohn Bishop Fine Art : PodcastShould We Go to Romania? Podcast with John & BogdanShould we go to Romania? Bogdan feels the need to return to Romania to somehow chronicle the story of refugees fleeing from the war in Ukraine. So much to think about as we try to find a way to respond to what's happening in the world. But as we struggle with the possibility of travel, we're continuing to create new artwork, prepare for a variety of art exhibitions and receptions, and even found time to do a road trip to Round Top, Texas. Come along, and check out what we've been up to this week.________________________Season 2: Epis...2022-03-1924 min

In my last post, I shared my concerns about giving us permission as artists to evaluate and measure our success based upon criteria that better suits our type of creative businesses. We should definitely do that. But the missing piece in my mind is how to create these specialized objectives in such a way to make them realis...2022-01-1923 minJohn Bishop Fine Art : PodcastMeasuring Success as a Creative Business OwnerLast year I spent a lot of time struggling over creating realistic goals and objectives in my art business, because I felt like I was stretching ideas and strategies in an awkward way. I don’t mean to suggest that as an artist I don’t need goals and objectives, but rather that I didn’t feel completely comfortable that I was measuring the right things. It just didn’t feel right. So I set myself the goal of understanding why I felt that I was trying to put a square peg in a round hole when planning my art care...2022-01-1324 minJohn Bishop Fine Art : PodcastGoals & Objectives for an Art BusinessQuick review of John and Bogdan's business objectives for 2022. Goal setting is so important in any business, but particularly so in a freelance, creative environment. Even if you're the only person in your art business, it is imperative to have an organized plan for your year, even if you make changes along the way. A goal without a plan is just a dream._______________________________________Season 2: Episode 01_______________________________________“Art Life Podcast with John & Bogdan” is a weekly blog/vlog/podcast that creates a community, a conversation, between creatives in all sorts of fields at all sorts of leve...2022-01-0626 min

So many businesses sell more in this quarter than in the rest of the year, and art sales should be no different. We're getting ready for our big biannual sale at Sawyer Yards in Houston (October 2), as well as beefing up our online presence to catch those holiday shoppers. Let's face it, art sells as an impulse purchase, so we need to position ourselves to be in the right place when those impulses hit. In preparation for the...2021-09-2920 min

The question then arises as to what are the reasons that the listeners of this online content in particular listen to Conversations for Freelance Creatives. People gravitate to a variety of online content based on their needs for authoritative information, entertainment, and some degree of escapism. Perhaps the latter, a lifestyle type format would make the most sense. _________________________________Episode 22_________________________________“Conversations for Freelance Creatives” is a weekly blog/vlog...2021-08-2423 minJohn Bishop Fine Art : PodcastNew Studio Command CenterLots going on this week.

People who started working from home pivoted, ordered things on their computers, home schooled their kids, created virtual work spaces, and actually saved a lot of money. Many of these people, since they were spending so much time at home, began projects around the house, beautified their homes, and sought out entertainment and enrichment online. Reports are that artists who already had the infrastructure and presence to sell online often did as well or better in their 2020 sales than before the pandemic began. This was a wake-up call...2021-08-1028 minPod Have MercyEpisode 59: A CONVERSATION WITH BISHOP JANICE HUIEBishop Janice Riggle Huie is a retired Bishop of The United Methodist Church.

The invitations are in, the catalogs are printed, and the artwork is framed.

But now the event really gets cute. I’ve had a couple of engraved stamps made, one about 3 inches in diameter and the other only 1 inch around. I’m stamping the back of each painting with the red series logo, and will stamp the certificates of authenticity with a logo in sealing wax. Then I’ve had tiny lapel pins engraved with the logo so that each collector can get a pin acknowledging them as collectors of the Panca M...2021-06-0330 minJohn Bishop Fine Art : PodcastArtists as Graphic Designers Graphic Design is a lot more than just pretty pictures, it’s a communication tool between us and our customers. First impressions matter, and quality, consistent design can not only make you look more professional, it can also make you look more credible to a prospective buyer. The stronger your design, the more people trust you. We’ve all experienced clicking on a website, and thinking to ourselves that this company looks truly amateurish, or even creepy. Artistic companies are no different. It’s funny, because you’d think as creatives we’d be great at presenting ourselves graphically… but that...2021-05-1027 min
