Andy Warhol
I attended a lecture today with Sue Gregor who creates handmade jewellery, graduated from the Printmaking MA (the same one I'm currently studying) and more importantly is making herself a successful career from her endeavours. The lecture was a crash course in how to turn what you like doing into a profitable business from good ideas to approaching galleries and cash flow. Sue looked at case various case studies to demonstrate how other companies have been set up and then grown. It was encouraging to see that many others, including Sue have been able to steadily build a successful business from small beginnings. In conclusion this is what I need to work on:
- Learn to photograph work to a high standard
- Attract attention (this Blog is a start)
- Follow Sues guidelines when approaching galleries
- Learn about the market by comparing own work to what is out there already
- Up-date CV
- Complete personal profile for Blog
