What does it truly mean to empower yourself as an artist?

I recently sat down with Mark Baratto for a thoughtful conversation about what it means to empower ourselves on our creative journeys.

We discussed the challenges we all face as artists, and how we can find our way forward, even when the path isn’t always clear.

In this conversation, I spoke about:

  • My best advice on art pricing
  • My secret formula for reaching out to art world decision-makers

  • And I spoke about my own career path working with galleries, museums and artists like you.

Lots of love to you,
