How to Do It When You Don’t Want To
I get asked all the time how I created my art business....how I sell my art...how I find collectors.
Here's the answer...
I make a lot of art.
I get out there and show it.
I help people experience it.
That's it.
Do these things, and you'll sell art.
There is no secret sauce.
But, you already knew this.
What you actually want to know is how you do those things when you don’t feel like it…
when it gets hard...when you feel stuck, or tired, or fear, or shame...when you zero at a show, when you get unsubscribes, when you are completely unmotivated to do the commission...
My business is successful for one reason...
I spend more time believing that I can do it…
that it is working,
that collectors want it,
that it is worth it...
then I spend believing that I can't.
And because I spend more time in those beliefs, I spend more time feeling aligned, calm, certain, and...my favorite....unshakeable.
And when I am feeling that in my body...I am open to the hard stuff...instead of hide from it.
It truly all comes down to that. I know that it is going to be hard, and I do it anyway.
And you can too.
I promise.
So, on this day of Holiday Cheer and celebration...my gift to you is this...
You can do anything. You can be anything. You can have anything.
You are 100% a successful artist.
There are collectors out there waiting for you to show up and be your beautiful self.
You are creating the life you want just as you create the art that is born as a concept in your mind.
All that is stopping you from being this is you.
Stop believing the negative shit in your head, and start searching for evidence that you are capable of all that you ever wanted for yourself.
You know what to do.
You've totally got this.
