Avoiding the business side of art is like driving down unknown country roads in the dark without headlights: you don’t know what your destination looks like. You might end up down the wrong road, or worse yet, run out of gas. If you want to attract more collectors, gallery dealers and museum curators, you must know how to market your art. It doesn’t have to be hard, boring or expensive. You just need a system and you have to use it consistently.

Imagine having a reliable vehicle for marketing your art, with high beams to focus on the best way to save you time, money and energy. Learn to navigate the seven stages in the journey. You will leave this class with a marketing map that will help you drive your business so that you have a better year than ever. Then all you have to do is steer. BTW, Bring your favorite art materials – art making is part of the weekend.

You’re a productive artist. You’ve worked hard to create a body of signature work and you have the time, money and energy to market it. You will benefit whether you are a part-time or full time artist who is emerging, mid-career, or established, and you want to make money from your art.

Join Aletta de Wal, Artist Advisor & Art Marketing Strategist for Artist Career Training and Artist-Entrepreneur Eric Armusik for a creative, hands-on workshop to help you have more fun and make more money from your art.

Eric Armusik Pushes the Boundaries of Art Making and Art Marketing

A.C.T.: What prompted you to start your professional art career?

It was quite evident at an early age that I was destined to be an artist – much to the chagrin of my parents. Both were college graduates and desired that I pursue a college degree, but they were concerned that a degree in art would not be a lucrative pursuit. I’ve never been good with people giving me advice, especially when they have no understanding of my tenacity.
