How to make a living as an artist (without selling your soul) - Alex Hillkurtz | #008

Update: 2023-03-07

Description

Alex Hillkurtz is an American professional watercolor painter. He moved to Paris 7 years ago and has dedicated himself to his paintings after a career stretching decades in Hollywood (primarily storyboarding).

You can check out his work here.

& his Instagram.

This became a bit of a philosophical conversation about art and creativity, age and comparison with other artists, the value of working slowly, how to know when to stop and what you learn when you make things.

I hope you enjoy.
