Have you ever found yourself wondering if it’s really possible to turn your creative passion into a sustainable art business? If so—you’re not alone. I’ve stood exactly where you are. Paint-stained fingers, big dreams, and no idea how to bridge the gap between making meaningful art… and making meaningful income.
Let’s be honest—being a painter is not for the faint of heart. You pour your soul onto the canvas, spend years honing your craft, and still, the business side can feel like you’re trying to paint in the dark with oven mitts on.
If you've ever thought, “I just want to paint… why is this so hard?”—you’re not alone.
I can't tell you how many times this thought ran through my mind. For years, I did what I thought I was “supposed” to do: I entered exhibitions, showed at fairs, posted on social media—hoping someone would see my work and want to buy it.
But instead of income producing results, I got found crickets.
I thought that things would eventually, click. But despite the effort, I still wasn’t making the consistent income I dreamed of.
Eventually, through lots of trial, error, and a whole lot of soul-searching, I realized the art business isn’t just about talent or visibility. It’s about intention, alignment, and having the right tools, mindset, and strategy to support the life you want to live.
It wasn’t for lack of talent—it was for lack of a roadmap.
That’s why I created "The Ultimate Guide to Starting Your Fine Art Painting Business."
It’s the resource I wish I had when I was starting out—when I was a single mom juggling part-time work and midnight painting marathons. This guide lays out the essential steps I took to turn my creative practice into a real, working business—without sacrificing my spirit or creativity.
Inside the guide, you’ll discover:
- How to find collectors looking for work like yours.
- What “bread and butter” artwork is and why you need it.
- Simple mindset shifts to help you price and talk about your work with confidence.
And so much more.
If you're tired of trying to figure it all out alone—or wondering if it's even possible to build a thriving art business—this guide was made for you.
