Betty Krause - Becoming an Abstract Artist
EPISODE 74
Today I am joined by abstract artist, Betty Krause. Betty started painting when she turned 50 and has built up a thriving art business in a short space of time. How did she do it?
Well, it started with a very deliberate decision to put her mixed-media art supplies away and focus on becoming an abstract artist.
In this episode, Betty talks about removing distractions, hanging in there as you find your art style, and using platforms such as Instagram and YouTube to connect and grow your audience.
For anyone that has ever felt like it is too late to get started, I encourage you to take a listen to Betty’s inspirational story.
