Hey, What Are You Working On?

Friend of the pod, ceramacist, writer, paitner and gentle human, Amanda Sandlin joins us in this real talk episode about all of the things! Making art in a location where your style is the outlier, moving into a new city + art life, evolving your style, developing a commercial side hustle, making small accessible work, and a whole lot more because, personally, we hadn't caught up with Amanda in a hot minute and she is a GEM to talk with.

But do I reallyyy need a newsletter as an artist? TLDR: it's a pretty good idea. And in this episode not only will we tell you all the reasons why, but we share the the start-to-finish logistics of how to build one and how to keep your readers (and your sales) happy. Turns out those quartley emails to your fans can actually go a pretty long way. If you've been wanting to get on the email train (or need some inspiration and motivation to get yours going again) we think this will help!Also: we made you a digital artist statement writing guide!

All aboard the struggle bus! Aka this episode where the three of us check in with each other on what's hard right now. Brace yourself for Devon's battle with the next evolution of her work (aka a whole existential crisis), Andrea's inability to understand the wonder of time and Marisa. Period. Because Marisa's struggle is literally herself, and the fact that she's such a yes woman. We think you will most definitely feel seen in this episode if you are riding your own bus these days.

Hey, why does that thing keep showing up in my work? Join us for this chat on our recurring symbols, what they're about and where we think they came from. This kind of discussion among art friends is often how we help each other gain new understanding and inspiration. We captured this one in real time for you!

Hey, we noticed something. Work that puts a spin on something recognizable and classic has seemed to rarely dwindle in popularity, why is that?! Is it a smart move from a business perspective? What is it about this kind of work that seems to find an audience, despite the decade? We thought we'd talk about it!

We're back with another minisode where we talk about the art things that are a little less juicy, but a whole lot necessary. It's hard to make money off your work if you don't have a place to sell it, hence today's topic: the online shop! We discuss your hosting options (website v. online marketplace) , tips for making your listings extra sellable, design suggestions, mental blocks and more.

Oh what's that? It's 2025 and you did not come to play? Us neither.While SELLING OUT might have negative connotation when it comes to art, it can also be the exact thing to help you-- literally -- sell out your inventory. We happen to think products and commercialization can be a great option for funding your practice; but how do you do this in a way that still feels good to you (and your bank account)? The eternal question! Marisa shares with us her Venn diagram for finding your commercial sweet spot and the three of us get into what has and has worked for us when it comes to selling out-- in all the ways.Go forth and SELL OUT baby.

She's not the juiciest topic on the block, but she IS an important one. If you've ever sold a piece and then suddenly had no idea how you were going to get it to its new home-- you know the struggle.

Today we're traversing dimensions and talking about taking your work from 2D to 3D! A lot of 2D artists are drawn to seeing their world take on new form, but where to start? What medium to choose? What to make?? The questions can be overwhelming but we're discussing all of our journeys and extracting Marisa's great wisdom on the subject for your education and inspiration.

When and why did artist statements become a thing? Who is responsible for this practice that so many dread? And how did the artist statement evolve into how we relate to it today? What do people event WANT from us in these paragraphs? We wanted to know too, so we did some research. In this episode we dig into all of that, as well as how we individually approach them. Shocker: the three of us do so quite differently! Because there is as much variety in artist statements are there is among artists.

This season we're creating Minisodes on popular topics and FAQs, so that you can easily navigate to the resources you need. When you find yourself in pickles like: How do I ship this? Where do I start with a website? What am I supposed to put in my emails to galleries, again? There will eventually be a minisode for that, with as much actionable info and as few side rants (we hope), as possible. Today is the first in that series and we're getting into all things PRICING.

The the first week of the year really lasts through the first quarter if you ask us. So we're hitting you with our Ins and Outs for the upcoming year! As relevant and timely as ever: listening to people, community, obsession with skill, process videos, transitioning to a Christian podcast, talking shit, paying taxes, drugs, colored pencils...if you wanna know which of these is staying and which are going you'll have to listen in!

We overpaid to get overstimulated at Frieze so you didn't have to! WELCOME BACK. We're kicking off season 2 with a banger. Join us as we relive our afternoon at the 2025 Frieze art fair. We discuss: the patterns and trends we noticed in the artwork, our favorite pieces, the overall experience and if we'd recommend it, who the heck goes to this kind of fair, huge paintings and wealth signaling, and, perhaps most relevant and important, what everyone was wearing.

Welp, it's been a year. We've learned a whole a lot in terms of our art, careers, and oh yeah- this podcast! For the final episode of the season we're sharing our highs and lows, what we've learned and what our (very loose) intentions are for the coming year. And yes-- that includes our lessons and desires re: Hey, What Are You Working On? As always, we'd love to hear what your desires for this show are, too. Send us an email at heywhatareyouworkingon@gmail.com with your thoughts. Thanks for being here throughout the season and we'll see you next year!

We love a good Q+A sesh...almost as much as we love the opportunity to tangent. But what did you expect would come from asking us about our special interests?

If last week was how to deal with copiers, this week is how not to BE a copier. Sounds straight forward-- but it isn't always. Newer artists in particular might have a hard time stepping away from the 'gram, their instructor's style, or the current hot thing. In this episode we break down our own influences and how we've navigated them, tips for getting out of the murky heavily-influenced/copier waters, how to set your work apart and a whole lot more.

Though a vast and triggering subject for us all, we felt the convo needed to be had. Join us as we share our individual (and pretty unique) stories about being copied, what defines copying and where it gets annoyingly nuanced, the things copiers LOVE to say, and ultimately, how to prevent your work from being copied as best you can (some solutions might not be what you think!). And if you're a copier who wants to defend your right to "be a great artist who steals" don't @ us. We address this quote and its rape-y origins, head on.

We're astrology bitches now! Join us for the first in our series of GEEK OUT episodes, where we let our nerd flags fly and dive into art plus one of our special interests. In this episode, Devon brings back her 20-something, woo-crazed, almost-professional astrologer self to give a star-influenced diagnosis of your hosts and famous artists of the past. Turns out there's might be some planetary influence on the kind of art you make. And why Artemisia Gentileschi was a badass and Picasso suckedddd. We had a good time with that one.

Finally a FUN and LIGHT HEARTED topic for you...jk. But, if you're anything like us, you'll find this discussion validating at the very least. Being an artist over the long haul means weathering the good, bad and ugly of the economy. How you adapt and stay connected to your work throughout those seasons is crucial (as many of us are experience right meow). In this conversation, we talk about the factors that have created the current less-than-ideal-state of the art market, how to adapt from a business perspective, and how to do what's best for you and your work along the way.

Welcome to our Halloween inspired episode where Marisa shares about an urban legend and the worst art day ever, Andrea tells one story that quickly becomes three, and Devon opens up about what it feels like to be yelled at for something you didn't even know you were doing. BOO!We also read three of our listener's scary art stories and diss hard on DND for no reason at all (SORRY NERDS).

What would we do with our art if we had infinite time and money? Well-- that's a can of wild and wonderful worms (quite literally, in Marisa's case).

Today we have a special co-host, friend and fellow mentee of Marisa's- Sabrina Mari! Since both Sabrina and Devon have been mentored by Marisa over the years, we thought it would be fun to chat about what they've learned, how they all came together, the importance of mentorship, community and different teaching styles. We love Sabrina for her transparency and realness (she obvi fits right in with the gang here) and we ended up going deep into imposter syndrome, being self-taught, taking long breaks from art and a whole lot more.

Marisa and Devon are at it again. They're busy with the glitters, clays and, this time around, DEATH.

"Tell me about your work?" is the most dreaded and opened ended question on the planet, according to most artists. And yet! If you make art you will most definitely be asked it, and a whole lot more in follow up. In fact, once upon a time, Devon had booked a studio visit and had no idea how to prepare, or what the heck she would be asked. So she called up Marisa and got a FULL run down of all the possible things that could happen and what she could say about her work (lucky her). In today's episode, we recreated that prep session for you. You might want to grab a pen and paper to jot down these q's and sentence starters, cause it's basically an entire "tell me about your work" outline, start to finish.

Today's topic is particularly beloved by your hosts: collaboration! (Hey, this show is kinda a collab. Meta right? We talk about that.) Art collabs can go amazingly right or amazingly wrong, and telling all about what causes them to go one way or the other, from our personal experiences. You'll hear from two VERY different collaborative teams: Devon and Marisa, and Andrea and Meggy (today's special guest!). So brace yourself for both, the extremely planned and the harmoniously chaotic ways that one might approach creative partnership. In addition to how to choose the right partner, what to discuss upfront, what should be expected of both artists, the do's and don't's and a whole lot more.

Seeing as self-doubt tends to go hand-in-hand with making art, confidence is often a scary (yet crucial!) topic for us. So today we're digging into it from all angles: the nuance of being confident in some areas but not others, childhood labels, rejection, navigating openings, networking as an introvert, social media, and, most importantly, how to stand behind your work with the confidence it deserves. Whether you're a long time career artist or just starting to make stuff, we think there'll be a lot for you to relate to in this one!

Saying NO is actually an official part of the artist's job description...or at least, it should be. There are a lot of scams out there-- some are obvious and some are a lot more covert.
