Description
Book SynopsisThis go-to guide can be your handbook as you enter the art world and navigate the nuances of becoming self-sufficient. Instead of feeding you new techniques, it will provide you with insights to help you make decisions based on your specific situation and goals. By the end of this book, you will have a set of guidelines for scenarios that range from taking on commission work and conducting negotiations to dealing with rejection and improving your organization. Be the Artist is designed to help up-and-coming creatives educate themselves on essential yet seldom-discussed strategies, learn about new and relevant artists, and gather the resources they need to build their business.
Trade Review"Freelance can be a difficult career path. the best resource artists have is each other to share their experiences and to get their advice, informed by trial and error, in an ever-changing job market. This is what makes the artist handbook so essential. It captures the invaluable resource of our community." Birdcap, Muralist
