    Nurturing Your Creative Practice (with Sally-Anne Ashley)

    Nurturing Your Creative Practice (with Sally-Anne Ashley)

    This week, Louise welcomes guest artist Sally-Anne Ashley, who has thought very deeply about what it means to build and sustain a creative practice. In this conversation, Louise and Sally-Anne discuss the foundations to intuitive painting; explore the importance of awareness, and dive into the challenges of trusting our own intuition. This is a deeply inspiring conversation that we hope you'll enjoy.

    Whats in a Name? Talking Titles [243]

    Whats in a Name? Talking Titles [243]

    This week, we’re talking titles. Yep, that stage when you think the work is complete - and there’s still the process of coming up with a title for your masterpiece. Does it even matter what we choose? Do they make you more or less likely to buy a painting? 

    From locations to the disappointment of “untitled” we look back over some of our favourite ways to select relevant titles - and even try to think of the most off-putting title we can. With so many ways to choose, this is the final stage and can be deeply personal; Alice thinks “A painting title is like a free gift”. 

    Do you agree? What’s your favourite way to pick a title?

    How to Price Your Art [242]

    How to Price Your Art [242]

    Often a sensitive and uncomfortable topic, but the question of how to price your art is essential to consider - and to confront if you are to avoid getting stuck in the weeds of self-doubt!

    In this episode we run through some common pricing strategies artists use and cover the pros and pitfalls of each of them to help you determine prices when you’ve never sold before.

    We also cover when it's time to raise your prices and factoring in elements such as gallery commission, work on paper vs 'paintings'.

    Our own views on money are huge here. We all know artists who don’t charge enough and pricing too low can cause as many problems as pricing too high for the context or stage you're at. So as well as the "formulas" we offer some suggestions to bring your pricing into alignment in a way you can feel proud of.

    Soul Made Events: with Kellee Wynne [241]

    Soul Made Events: with Kellee Wynne [241]

    Today we're talking about that tipping point moment when you know things need to change which happens at various stages of the creative path. There are times when we need a little nudge, time to reflect or sometimes even to be given permission to create what we desire OR to strip back and gain some clarity as we craft the next stage of our journey.

    We're introducing a very special in-person event, to be held in the UK over 2 days in May 2024, hosted by Alice Sheridan and Kellee Wynne Conrad. You can find out more and add your name to the Priority invite list here:

    www.soulmadeevents.com

    We talk about why the time is now to gather in person and go beyond online learning and how we've both experienced and welcomes change over the last decade. "You don’t go an event like this for a learning objective. You go for an experience; you go for connection and to re-discover yourself again."

    Alice is joined by Kellee Wynne, an entrepreneurial powerhouse who many of you will know from her astonishingly popular True Colors program, Color Crush studio, her book or the Made Remarkable podcast. More recently she has been helping artists how to build a profitable business that lasts with the Build It Remarkable business accelerator.

    The #1 Way to Sell (or Share) Your Art [240]

    The #1 Way to Sell (or Share) Your Art [240]

    If you want to sell art (or workshops or mentoring), what's the most effective way? You might think of galleries or art fairs or group exhibitions or social media, but in our experience, the answer is none of those. In our experience, the good old email list our most effective sales tool. And yet, many of us struggle to send emails - perhaps we feel we're bothering people or perhaps we don't know what to say. In this episode, we break down our own approaches to email, discuss the role of Substack, and suggest that it might be time to double down on this precious tool.

    Nurturing Our Ideas [239]

    Nurturing Our Ideas [239]

    As artists, we rarely lack ideas. But how do you nurture those ideas so that they come to full fruition? It's possible to rush that first inkling, so that it never has a chance to reach its full potential. It's also possible to have so many flashes of inspiration that you never find a focus. Both Alice and Louise are feeling the need to make a nurturing space for their current ideas, and both are working on ways to do that. We don't have all the answers - but maybe we have some thoughts that can help you find your own balance.

A show I look forward to every week!

I love the conversations on this art podcast. Now I’m caught up with the back catalog I look forward to the new episodes to drop each week.

Thank you Alice & Louise

I feel like I’ve been eating from this glorious picnic for years having only just worked out how to leave a review!
I’m so glad I now have, so I can finally sing from the hilltops about how good this podcast is.
They say it’s honest, generous and humorous and I really couldn’t put it better myself.
Alice and Louise give us a regular dip into the everyday highs and lows of what it is, and takes to be practising artists making a living from what they do. They share (unknowingly) the guts it takes to repeatedly show up for themselves, their work, and us on a continual basis.
Two of the most hardworking, inspiring artist I know.
Thank you for all that you do and give us.

Chatty and honest

I’m always happy to see a new episode of Art Juice pop up and usually find something within each one to either inspire or make me feel included/not too muck of a freak. I enjoy the chatty and sometimes random nature of this podcast that often touches on the ebb and flow of creativity.
