Mary Price - From Hobbyist to Professional Artist
EPISODE 64
My guest today is UK artist, Mary Price, who is also known over on Instagram as the Artist In the Shed! I absolutely love Mary's colourful and vibrant work.
In this episode, Mary talks about transitioning from making art as a hobby to selling her work and setting up a professional art business. We chat about all the different avenues that artists can explore. Things like art markets, cafes, prints, workshops, online classes and even lifestyle products.
If you are also at the stage where you are beginning to sell your work or maybe you are thinking about it - this episode will give you plenty of ideas and encouragement!
