The Art Biz

In part one of this conversation (episode 247), Stephanie Brown shared how she strategically funded her education and built her early career foundation. Now it's time to talk about what happens next: the messy, real, day-to-day work of sustaining an art practice. Stephanie breaks down her actual income streams with host Alyson Stanfield—sharing her five-year vision for gallery representation and explaining how becoming a mother made her bolder and more focused rather than holding her back. 🔦 HIGHLIGHTS 03:50 Stephanie's income percentages from consulting, speaking, art sales, workshops, and grants 07:30 When paying for a residency is worth it (and when it's not) 08:30 The mistake of saying yes to a show just to meet a quota 10:30 Why motherhood pushed Stephanie's art practice harder instead of pausing it 12:20 What "your mom does for a living" should teach about possibility and freedom 18:30 The tools that keep multiple income streams organized 25:30 Why direct outreach finally started working after years of silence 27:30 If forced to choose only one income stream, this would be it—and why 🏃STEPHANIE'S ACTION FOR YOU Make a list of the top ten things you're most scared to do in your art career. Then do the scariest thing on that list. Maybe it's reaching out directly to a gallery you admire. Maybe it's raising your prices. Maybe it's applying to that prestigious residency you've been bookmarking for years. Maybe it's finally having an honest conversation about money with your partner or family. The scary thing is usually the thing that will move you forward the most. 🔶 ESSENTIALS If you need structure and support while you're doing the scary things, that's exactly what we provide in Essentials for Artist Success.

Too many artists graduate from art school with crushing debt and then spend years figuring out how to make money while trying to maintain a studio practice. Stephanie Brown did the opposite. She graduated from a private art school debt-free, secured a fully funded MFA, and has been treating her art career like a business from day one. In this conversation with host Alyson Stanfield, Stephanie breaks down exactly how she did it, and why being strategic about money doesn't make you any less of an artist. 🔦 HIGHLIGHTS 02:00 Why interactive art transforms viewers into participants and creates lasting memory points—and how Stephanie intentionally studied education theory to understand this 06:40 How she graduated from a private art school (SCAD) debt-free by maximizing scholarships and strategically taking general education classes at community college 09:40 Why she only applied to fully funded MFA programs and what made University of Michigan's program worth it 16:30 The best advice Stephanie received about graduate school: only go when you know what you want to say to the world as an artist 23:10 How watching her mother's creative side hustles shaped her belief that artists can make money from their work 24:40 The rules she set for herself (one residency, two exhibitions per year) to ensure she could always say "I'm an exhibiting artist" 31:10 Why working from home during the pandemic was the unlock that gave Stephanie energy and time for serious studio practice 33:20 The transferable skills from her art practice (managing budgets up to $50,000) that landed her higher-paying jobs in project management and business operations 🚀 YOUR ACTION Create your own non-negotiable parameters for your art practice. Stephanie's are at least one residency and two exhibitions per year.

Your art doesn't exist in a vacuum. Where and how you show your work shapes how people perceive its value before they even look closely at the piece itself. The venue, the lighting, the labels, the other work nearby—all of it sends signals about whether your art should be taken seriously. In this episode of The Art Biz, host Alyson Stanfield explores what falls within your control and what doesn't, and why understanding that difference can transform how collectors see you and your work. She encourages you to vet opportunities before committing, establish non-negotiables to establish for yourself, and move strategically toward increasingly prestigious venues rather than staying comfortable with familiar options. Whether you're just starting out or you've been showing for years, you'll learn how to raise your standards and make choices that honor the work you've put into your art. HIGHLIGHTS 00:30 A gallery story that reveals how presentation can undermine even the most exquisite artwork 02:50 Joshua Bell's subway experiment and what it reveals about context over content 04:20 What you can't control after committing: organizers' behavior, placement, promotion, and who else is in the show 06:00 The power of vetting opportunities before you say yes: research methods and setting non-negotiables 09:00 Moving strategically to increasingly prestigious venues rather than staying comfortable 11:40 Being selective even when starting out: choosing the best option available at your career stage 🚀 YOUR ACTION Audit your current opportunities through this lens. For each place you're showing or planning to show, ask yourself: Does this venue's reputation support my prices and goals? Will being here make collectors take me more seriously? What can I control about how my work is presented? And if you can't control key elements, is this opportunity still worth it? 🎧 RELATED EPISODES Seeking Validation and Earning Credibility as an Artist (129) How One Curator Works with Artists at a Regional Art Center with Collin Parson (116) Lessons from a Wildly Successful Pop-up Art Gallery Event with Mai Wyn Schantz (109) 📖 To read more, see images, find resources mentioned, and leave a comment, visit artbizsuccess.com/undermining-value 🔶 Context shapes perception.

Working with a gallery means putting your art, reputation, and trust in someone else's hands. That relationship can be transformative (or tense) depending on how it's managed on either side. In this episode of The Art Biz, host Alyson Stanfield talks with Katherine Hébert, founder of Gallery Fuel, which helps small and mid-size galleries strengthen their businesses. Katherine has seen both sides of the artist–gallery dynamic and knows what helps these relationships thrive: communication, transparency, and mutual respect. You'll hear: What mutual respect between artists and galleries looks like. How to establish trust early in the relationship. Why open communication prevents power imbalances throughout the evolution of the relationship. What "trust signals" artists send through professionalism and follow-through. The role of regular check-ins and collaborative planning. HIGHLIGHTS 00:40 Katherine shares her journey from art history to founding Gallery Fuel. 05:00 Why she focuses on small and mid-size "Main Street" galleries. 07:00 What genuine trust between artists and galleries means, and how to establish it through clear communication. 11:10 How galleries can assess fit before signing artists. 13:00 The professionalism cues (or "trust signals") artists send to galleries. 15:40 Empowering artists to ask questions and clarify expectations. 20:00 Why regular communication and quarterly check-ins matter. 28:20 Contracts as a foundation for mutual respect and protection. 34:00 How younger collectors are changing the gallery landscape. 41:40 Creative experiences galleries can offer to build connection. 46:20 Alyson's closing thoughts: take what you've learned and put it into action. 🚀 YOUR ACTION Reach out to one of your professional contacts this week—whether it's a gallerist, curator, or collector.

When Alissa Quart's 90-year-old mother received a terminal diagnosis, she faced a daunting question: what to do with 400 paintings created over three decades. Her solution was unconventional, distributing the work directly to neighbors, friends, and anyone who wanted to live with her mother's art. The story she shares with host Alyson Stanfield touches on something much larger: what artists actually need to sustain their practice and how we think about legacy when the traditional art world isn't an option. You'll learn: How to approach inventorying and distributing an artist's work when they can no longer do it themselves Why affordable housing is critical infrastructure for artists and what happens when creative communities are priced out The legal and economic barriers that prevent cities from supporting working artists How one New York Times article elevated an artist's work in ways decades of painting couldn't When to stop building an artist's legacy and how to set boundaries around the work HIGHLIGHTS 01:30 Barbara Quart's journey from East Village bohemian to 30 years of daily painting  05:40 The horror story that sparked a mission to honor her mother's wishes 08:20 Looking for external validation through local gallery shows in the Berkshires 10:40 The circumstances that allowed 30 years of sustained art practice 12:50 Why artists need community, not just queen bees but worker ants too 14:40 Legal barriers that restrict housing developments for artists 17:00 How art production creates billions in economic activity 23:10 Starting with an inventory and creating a catalog system 26:30 Women who inherit their husband's art and sacrifice their own lives 29:20 The art destruction party where artists let go of their work 34:10 How one piece in the New York Times changed everything 38:10 Barbara started painting again after the article's positive response 42:00 Collective joy and questioning the myth of individualism 44:00 The promise that consciousness can persist beyond the hand that picked up the brush 🎧 RELATED EPISODES Spotlighting Artists Who Bloom Later in Life with Janice Mason Steves (181) Proactively Planning Your Art Legacy with Heather K.

host: Alyson Stanfield Artist and activist Malene Barnett joins host Alyson Stanfield to unpack how she balances a multidisciplinary practice while designing work that "holds memory" in space. Malene shares the planning, community, and process-sharing that keep a long, installation-driven practice moving, and she offers a resonant lens on clay as a tool for liberation grounded in Caribbean and West African heritage. Bits of her wisdom: Plan your studio around time-intensive mediums so momentum never stalls. On social media, share process, tools, and research to connect when finished work is scarce. Think in space: design work and installations that carry memory and story. Build stability outside the studio to support long-term creative growth. Form intentional communities for critique, support, and opportunity. HIGHLIGHTS 02:10 Family lineage and a first-generation background shape Malene's practice. 04:20 The pact to center ancestry and identity in her work from art school onward. 08:20 Clay as a tool for liberation through Caribbean pottery history and markets. 13:10 Leaving bespoke rugs, after a sabbatical, to reclaim her voice and move into clay. 19:20 Tiles and architecture as ways to create a space that holds memory. 21:00 Planning around clay's long timelines for drying, firing, and glazing. 22:20 Residencies, film, and building an archive of Caribbean potters. 26:40 Why sharing process, tools, and research sustains audience connection. 32:10 Founding the Black Artists and Designers Guild and how to start a community. 35:10 Crafted Kinship: agency, blurred lines between art, craft, and design. 41:10 Career advice: seek stability, invest, and take the long view. 43:20 What's next: a large-scale ceramic mural in Greensboro, with installation in 2027.

Host Alyson Stanfield talks with Katie Hunt about the findings from her 2025 State of the Product Industry survey. While Katie's audience includes product-based artists and makers, many of the themes—pricing pressures, burnout, and the need for stronger systems—apply across the creative sector. They explore what's really happening behind the scenes of creative businesses right now: why some are thriving while others are closing or stalling, how tariffs are complicating planning and profitability, and the surprising number of businesses still not using email marketing. Katie and Alyson reflect on the connection between sustainability and simplification, and how support, community, and structure can make all the difference. 03:50 Who was surveyed and what kinds of businesses they run 09:00 How hiring and systems correlate with reduced hours and greater sustainability 11:30 Why email marketing is still underused—and still effective 15:30 The mindset blocks around unsubscribes and "bothering" your list 17:40 Social media as a visibility tool vs. a sales driver 18:30 Why community, mentorship, and education accelerate growth 21:00 Emotional tone of the industry: cautiously hopeful, but tired 24:20 Following up and closing the loop when no one responds 26:40 30% of respondents have considered closing their business 30:00 Tariffs, planning challenges, and the ripple effect on pricing 34:20 What separates those who sustain their business from those who burn out 38:00 The role of peer support and accountability 🎧 RELATED EPISODES 4 Considerations for Wholesaling Your Art with Katie Hunt (138) Worrying About the Economy with Elaine Luttrull (141) Increasing Self-Sales by 400% with Sarah Becktel (157) 📖 To read more, see images, find resources mentioned, and leave a comment, visit https://artbizsuccess.com/fatigue-hunt ⭐️ Connect with Katie and listen to the Proof to Product podcast at https://prooftoproduct.com 🔶 Ready to make real progress in your art business?

host: Alyson Stanfield Artists thrive on creative expression, but that same impulse can scatter your marketing.

host: Alyson Stanfield Waiting to be discovered isn't a strategy. A gallery might help, but it won't solve everything. What you really need to build a thriving art career are conscious connections. These are intentional relationships that open doors, create opportunities, and sustain you for the long run.

host: Alyson Stanfield   When someone is ready to buy your art, the last thing you want to do is make them go on a treasure hunt. Every extra click, unanswered question, or missing price is a barrier that can cost you the sale.   In this solo episode, I talk about how you can take charge of the buying process—because while you can't control the economy or trends, you can control how easy it is for people to pay you.   Key Ideas Collectors don't just buy art—they buy into the artist. Relationships matter, but clarity in the buying process is non-negotiable. Three keys to a smooth sales experience: Clarity, Ease, and Trust.

Each is paired with a powerful inquiry to help you take honest inventory—and move forward with more awareness.

A retired police captain turned artist, Jennifer Steck realized she didn't have to wait for opportunities to come to her—she could create them. Seeing a gap in what was available for artists to sell their work, Jennifer founded Artburst Studios, an online gallery that's part pop-up show and part community hub for artists. She had zero experience running a gallery, but that didn't stop her. Armed with curiosity, a clear vision, and plenty of determination, Jennifer (at the time of this recording) has helped over 80 artists sell more than $174,000 of art in just a few years. In this episode, she shares how a simple idea (and a lot of spreadsheets!) grew into a platform connecting artists with buyers and each other. In this conversation, host Alyson Stanfield talks with Jennifer about: Her "aha" moment as a new artist that inspired an artist-centered online gallery. The key qualities Jennifer looks for (like clarity, consistency, and an active practice) when reviewing an artist's online presence—and what might make her pass. Why community and collaboration are baked into the Artburst model, and how they benefit every artist involved. Strategies for overcoming artists' reluctance to promote their work and engage their audiences. How fear, perfectionism, and overthinking can sabotage art sales—and ways to avoid these common pitfalls. ⌛️ HIGHLIGHTS 00:35 Meet Jennifer Steck – From police captain to artist entrepreneur. 06:00 The "aha" moment – How a Facebook art auction sparked the idea for Artburst Studios. 10:30 Running a virtual art show – Artburst's short pop-up exhibitions and the importance of artists actively promoting their work. 13:45 Emphasizing community – Encouraging artists to support one another and provide great experiences for their buyers. 16:00 Choosing the right artists – What Jennifer looks for online (and the red flags that make her say "no thanks"). 22:10 Personal touch in sales – How Artburst handles sales and gets artists directly connected with their buyers. 26:30 Why artists resist marketing – Understanding the stigma around self-promotion and how Jennifer helps artists move past it. 35:00 Conquering common mindset blocks – Tackling fear of exposure, perfectionism, and "analysis paralysis" that can hold artists back. 40:00 Looking ahead – Jennifer's plans to launch the Artburst Boutique for smaller, more frequent art shows. 44:00 Final encouragement – An open invitation for artists to get involved, and why showing up (like attending shows) is so important before seeking opportunities. 🎧 RELATED EPISODES Not All Online Galleries are Created Equal with Alex Farkas (ep. 132) Presenting Yourself Professionally on Your Artist Website with Jessica Burko (ep. 174) Selling Directly to Collectors at Open Studios with Jeff Schaller (ep. 195) 📖 To read and see more visit https://artbizsuccess.com/artburst-steck ⭐️ Connect with Jennifer and see what she's up to at ArtburstStudios.com and see her art at JenniferSteck.com 🔶 Does your art business need a boost or a refresh?
