    Will AI replace Artists? (the Future of Creativity)

    ⏳ Speed is out. Soul is in. Slow-made art is becoming the new status symbol—and artists are finally taking back control. We've been told to post more, dance for the algorithm, and chase visibility at all costs. But in 2026, the most resonant art isn't the fastest or loudest, it's the most human. In this solo episode, I'm unpacking what's changing for artists right now and why this new era favors those who create with clarity, care, and conviction. From hybrid workflows using AI to building collector trust without social media, I'll walk you through what's working and what's quietly dying. If you're craving deeper meaning, slower studio rhythms, and a business model that actually feels good to run, this episode will light the path forward.   💡 You'll Learn: How to use AI to support your workflow without losing your artistic soul Why 2026 is about clarity, not volume, in your messaging and marketing To create a business model based on trust, direct connection, and sustainable growth   🎧 Tune in for a future-focused reset that honors your art—and your energy.   🔗 Resources Full Show Notes: schulmanart.com/391 📩Check out our FREE Masterclass "How to Sell More Art" at schulmanart.com/sellmoreart 📘 Read Artpreneur: Grab your copy + bonuses at ArtpreneurBook.com 💙 Start Free: Read Chapter 1 "Choose to Believe" at SchulmanArt.com/BELIEVE 📺 Watch us on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@schulmanart 📲 Follow me on Instagram: @schulmanart 💼Connect on Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/schulmanart

    390: Art Basel Miami Report: What's Selling (and What's Not)

    🎨 Art Basel Miami makes headlines—but the real story isn't the price tags. It's the signals shaping collector behavior everywhere else. Six- and seven-figure sales grab attention, but what happens at the top of the art market quietly influences how collectors buy at every level. In this episode, Miriam breaks down what actually sold, what struggled, and what the signals from Miami Art Week mean for your art business right now. This market isn't weak—it's selective.

If you've been wondering whether to play it safe or step forward, this conversation will give you clarity and confidence. 💡 You'll Learn:  Why the art market is selective—not collapsing—and how that affects today's artists What quality over quantity really means for your body of work and online presence Why bold, specific, and human art is outperforming safe, generic work 🎧 Tune in to replace uncertainty with clarity and approach galleries from a place of preparation, not permission-seeking.   🔗 Resources Full Show Notes: schulmanart.com/390 📩Check out our FREE Masterclass "How to Sell More Art" at schulmanart.com/sellmoreart 📘 Read Artpreneur: Grab your copy + bonuses at ArtpreneurBook.com 💙 Start Free: Read Chapter 1 "Choose to Believe" at SchulmanArt.com/BELIEVE 📺 Watch us on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@schulmanart 📲 Follow me on Instagram: @schulmanart 💼Connect on Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/schulmanart
