    Episode 69: Best of: How to Price Your Art (So It Sells!)

    Episode 69: Best of: How to Price Your Art (So It Sells!)

    I get it, pricing your art is an uncomfortable topic for a lot of artists. 
    You’re worried people won’t buy the higher, but fair, price, so you lowball yourself over and over — until one day, you realize you’re not making any money from this gig! 
    Being an artist isn’t all about the money, but hey, those paintbrushes aren’t going to buy themselves! So to take some of that unknown out of the pricing equation (literally and figuratively), we’re talking about how to price your art in this episode!
    We’ll cover: 
    Simple, practical, and easy ways to generate a fair price for your art
    How to keep the buyer, collector, AND you, the artist, happy with the price
    How to push past doubt when it comes to selling your work
    NOTE: This episode is a rerun of Episode 14. Why am I running it again? Because y’all got SO MUCH out of it! I’ve gotten so many messages about how helpful it’s been, so I wanted to bring it back to help even more folks who are new to the Honest Art Podcast. Enjoy!

    Check out a fresh, new installment of “Ask Me Anything,” where I answer listener questions with my raw, honest opinion on all things art and business. 
    And while we talk about a lot of things on this show — like how to use social media as an artist, how to apply to galleries, and even what makes something “real art” — today, we’re going to get a little more logistical here and talk about shipping, scams, time management, and more!

    Episode 65: Mark Making: Your Artist Signature

    Episode 65: Mark Making: Your Artist Signature

    Like forging your mom’s signature on your report card, your artist's signature cannot be copied or replicated. It may look great to you, but others can tell it is not unique.  
    So, instead of trying to mimic what others are doing, it’s time we find our own style so our most authentic art can shine through. 
    How can you do that? In this episode, I’ll give you all the details!

GABRIELLANP ,

Where have you been?

If you are ready, Jodie links everything that you have thought is the reason why you need to create art. Through her podcast, she shares her own experiences to help you free yourself of every stupid self negative thought that limits your ability to do art. She gives researched facts about the benefits of creating art, and why you should not approach it with the expectation that the end result will be of significance.
This podcast is a must for any aspiring artist!

swaddie ,

A must listen!!!

Every one of these podcasts contains tips, wisdom, and experience that would’ve taken so much time and trial and error to figure out. Jodie shares so freely and with so much warmth and humor! My favorite go-to podcast!!!🎨💚🙏🏼

Taylor_MilanArt ,

Love!!

I love Jodie’s down-to-earth energy. This podcast is a must-listen for artists and creatives seeking guidance on their artist odyssey and navigating the business side of a creative practice!
