Hey Artists, it’s Andrea La Valleur- Purvis — I’m the founder of Vivid Creative, a creative consulting company, specializing in training rising visual artists in building the foundations of a thriving studio practice.

I’ve been in the creative industry for over two decades and am a practicing sculptor myself.

The reason why I’m so passionate about working with visual artists like you, is because traditionally, the art profession doesn’t have a clear path to success.

There’s a lot of gatekeeping, opaqueness and outdated strategies in play, and I believe any artist pursuing their career wholeheartedly can define what success means to them and develop long-term strategy to reach their vision and make money from their art.

This podcast is here to tell the stories of artists like you and dive deeper into the ways we can build modern art businesses. We talk about creative entrepreneurship, artist websites, online art sales, art marketing strategies and digital studio management.

If you want to feel better prepared to achieve your goals, get a blueprint you can implement yourself, I invite you to explore my growing collection of guides, templates and online training.

I hope you’re inspired by today's episode and if you ever have a question you’d like to ask a guest or myself, jump to the show notes to submit your question.
