I didn’t go to art school and now I’m a full time artist. In this relaxing art vlog, I’m answering lots of questions about becoming a full time artist, different types of income streams for artists, and my best advice for anyone wanting to make art for a living! I’ll also include footage from my trip to Washington D.C. and a little watercolor painting sketch of the Smithsonian Institute Building. 🌟SHOP MY ART HERE: 🎨 Painting Tutorial Recommendations A Crash Course on How to Oil Paint Oil Painting for Beginners - Still Life 4 Insights to Paint Alla Prima TOP 10 BEGINNER OIL PAINTING MISTAKES TO AVOID 10 tips for painters switching from ACRYLIC to OIL paint ALLA PRIMA oil painting DEMO how to keep CLEAN COLOR 🖌 Art Youtubers Mentioned @KelseyRodriguez - amazing videos on making money as an artist @paintcoach - very helpful and easy to understand painting tutorials @ChelseaLang - great art advice for full time artists @IanRobertsMasteringComposition - beautiful plein air painting tutorials 🌿 TIME STAMPS 🌿 00:00 Intro 00:36 Did you go to art school 01:53 Beginner oil painting tutorials 02:52 How did you become a full time artist 04:09 How can beginner artists get customers/grow a community 06:04 How were you financially able to pursue art 07:53 How much money have you spent on all your art supplies 08:22 Personal life questions (married, ethnicity, fav food) 09:29 How to start a Youtube Channel (mental advice) 10:57 Practical advice for starting a Youtube Channel 11:56 Filming and Editing Advice 12:29 Who are your art inspirations 13:29 Will you sell your art/ how to sell art 14:53 How to set boundaries with social media as a content creator 15:34 How to get past art block 15:58 How is your creativity/anxiety after so many new subscribers 17:06 Finishing the painting Business Inquiries: @ 🎨 JOIN MY ART JOURNEY FRIENDS I just set up my first level of membership for my channel!
