Episode 65-Laura C. George: Boundaries, pricing, & Confidence for artists – Part 1
I'm excited to share my interview with Art business coach, Laura C. George.
Laura talks about the important intangibles to consider when pricing your artwork, and the upside of "stealing;" how to use emulating another artist to find your own style.
She also talks about the importance of making sure you match how you live your art with your personality. Not all of us will be happy making our art as a business; for some people, that creates a misalignment.
We talk about the importance of healthy boundaries when doing commission work and much more!
The interview ran over an hour, so I've broken it into two episodes for listening convenience. Part II is available now at passionatepainterpodcast.com/episode66

Until next time... Go make something.
I like this interview. Laura is right in that the viewer has to connect with the piece before he/she is willing to buy it. FYI there is a repetition and a glitch around 3:31. Overall this is a very helpful interview which touched upon again what most artists suffer from… that is lack of confidence.
Hi Marilyn, Thanks for the feedback — there was a glitch and I’m grateful you shared that so I could fix it! Yes, I thought Laura hit upon really relevant issues for most of us during the interview on confidence and pricing; happy you enjoyed it.
