Diary of a Public Artist: A multi-hyphenated adventure‪!‬ Venessa Scott

This week I decided to clear out my store closet and transform it into a wonderfully organised and purposeful art store. In the process I came across so many wonderful but forgotten items; I also discovered just how much I had neglected the importance of achieving healthy balance between work and life.

This week lets talk about 'diving out of your comfort zone' and explore the 5 things I have discovered about changing your career.
A few years ago I started this new adventure; I left a full-time teaching role to become a social entrepreneur and freelance public artist. Now I spend my days scaling buildings to install 100ft murals and strutting the hallways and spaces of galleries delivering interactive workshops. I have learnt a lot in my adventure so far and I want to share that with you. Join me each episode as I share my top tips and experiences mixed with some wild anecdotes of how I changed my career and started navigating this multi-hyphenated adventure of life as a Public Artist.
