This podcast is for artists who want to create their most authentic work that's uniquely theirs, and to sell it to people who love and value it just as much as they do. We'll talk about finding the sweet spot between creating what you love and selling it at your dream prices. We'll explore how authenticity isn't just satisfying for you as an artist but also makes your work more sought after.

On this podcast, we'll also dive into a thriving artist mindset required for creating a seamless flow in the studio and finally overcoming creative blocks – and what it takes to actually succeed as an artist that goes beyond the surface level – working from the inside out.

I'll share my story and the story of other artists. My journey has been less than perfect to get here, but after years of art school, design work, product creation, trend, and colour forecasting spanning over 25+ years, I've got some stories to tell. I've worked on creating thousands of sellable products selling to hundreds of retailers all over the world – including my own art.

My biggest lesson Iearned is that excelling in ART requires boldness and self-trust. To tap into our authentic essence and use it as your superpower. Selling Your Soul? Not Required! - Authenticity and passion trump everything in the world of art.

I've worked with hundreds of artists through the years who have now learned how to pull out what’s already inside of them to make work that is extremely satisfying, understanding their unique value in the art world – and making sellable art that feels like them. My mission is to help way more!

My favourite part is recognizing artists' true value and helping them bring that unique perspective into the art market. Artists often tell me they feel 'seen' when working with me. That's truly the best part. The world is waiting for all of us to show up as ourselves, and been seen as we truly are and make the world a more interesting place.

If you’re ready to unleash your unique voice, and let the art that is already inside of you come out to create highly desirable collections, then tap the + follow button and let’s begin.

    Teaching you to sell art is one thing; guiding you to sell your true self is another. That’s rare and that's the journey I've been on — away from the noise and celebrating uniqueness. It's not the easiest path, but it's incredibly rewarding, leading away from becoming a production house of sameness, and chasing your tail with trends.
    With over 25 years of navigating this path, I've learned some invaluable lessons about the importance of staying true to our creative essence. I'm here to pass those lessons on to you, helping you find and express your own unique voice in a way that connects deeply with those who will love it most.

    #18 / Don't follow trends, DO THIS instead

    In this episode, I dive deep into the often misunderstood topic of trends in the art industry. I share insights from my years as a trend researcher and color forecaster, highlighting the difference between “following” trends and “creating or predicting” them. If you’ve ever cringed when you hear the word “trends” - listen to this episode as I demystify what they mean to us as artists. It’s really good news for authentic artists!

    #17 / Is it time to burn the bridges? Going from 'Good to Great'

    What does it take to go from Good to Great? In this episode I share my journey of burning bridges to find a better path. 
    It’s not easy, but in my opinion worth the effort. Listen now to hear my stories and insights of when I was terrified to burn the bridge (especially when my gut was telling me I should, but there was NO PROOF that it was a good idea.) and how I've pursued the “good to great’ path.

    #16 / Should I quit, is it time to give it up?

    Is it time to just hang in the towel? Is it too hard? The art world has gotten a little harder with a slower economy. I want to share how I'm actually handling these difficult times, what I'm doing in my art business, what am I thinking about right now and my next moves. So if you are questioning whether or not you should quit or you're wondering what to do in these difficult economic times this episode is for you.
