Beyond the Brush: A Business Guide for Artists

Welcome!

Access the full studio guide I created for artists navigating the business side of their work—a complete studio resource for building clarity, confidence, and sustainability. Beyond the Brush brings together the guidance I’ve shared with artists over the years: from defining your voice and understanding your audience, to building visibility, communicating your story, navigating sales and gallery relationships, and protecting your work through thoughtful planning. The course moves at a realistic pace, with space to reflect, reset, and apply what you’re learning in ways that fit your own studio practice. This is meant to support you where you are—not rush you toward someone else’s version of success. This is not a hustle course or a promise of overnight results. It’s a steady, practical resource designed to help you make clearer decisions, feel more confident in your direction, and build an art business that supports both your work and your life. Many artists love creating—but feel uncertain when it comes to selling. Pricing, approaching galleries, and sharing work publicly can feel uncomfortable, especially when the art itself is deeply personal. Creating and selling are different skills, and it’s common to feel overwhelmed trying to navigate both. Here, you’ll find practical tools and guidance designed to make the business side feel more approachable. • Insight into common mistakes that quietly hold artists back • Support for understanding and articulating your artistic voice • A simple, practical pricing guide • Guidance on approaching galleries and building professional relationships • Thoughtful ways to sell your work without feeling pushy • Downloadable resources such as contracts, certificates of authenticity, and planning tools Why This Course Is Different Beyond the Brush is designed to be used—not skimmed. It’s a complete guide focused on real-world application, offering tools and perspective you can return to as your work and career evolve.
