Rachael is ready to get serious about being an artist; so she and Lauren discuss a common component of presenting yourself as one: a portfolio. When describing your creative work and ambitions, it can be extremely helpful to have a curated selection of pieces to back it up; but many questions arise when attempting to build an online portfolio. In this episode, you'll gain some insight towards answering those questions for yourself. Is it okay to have one-off works vs a series? How can you focus your practice around certain theme or through-line while allowing yourself to follow all of your curiosities?

One of the most common challenges artists face is knowing when—and how—to hire help for their practice. This week, I'm breaking down the practicalities of hiring: from determining if you're ready, to figuring out what you can afford to pay, to managing assistants effectively.   I cover the key tipping points that signal it's time to bring on help, the difference between contractors, assistants, and coaches, and why feeling overwhelmed doesn't always mean you need to hire someone. We also discuss W.A.G.E.'s fee calculator as a concrete tool for determining fair pay, why underpaying assistants creates more problems than it solves, and how Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) can make working with help much smoother.   Plus, I explain how coaching can bridge the gap between doing everything yourself and hiring expensive consultants—helping you work smarter before you invest in working more. If you're struggling with time management, turning down opportunities, or can't meet deadlines without help, this episode offers practical guidance for making your first hire or improving how you work with the people already supporting your practice.   Relevant Links: W.A.G.E.

Happy New Year! Lauren and Rachael are glad to be back and are thinking about loosening their adherence to certain labels that they've stuck with for far too long. This discussion was inspired by Lauren doing something that she had previously written off as not her thing and is all about revisiting the stories we've been telling ourselves. Do they still ring true? Are we unnecessarily closing ourselves off to new, beautiful experiences or facets of ourselves? The hosts share areas in which they personally feel more curiosity could work wonders and invite you to do the same!Episode Mentions:Lauren's Paper Clay tutorialThe disgusting thing from DIA in Lauren's IG StoryOmy, the cool wine guyThe transcript for this episode can be found here!

Working Artists! You are not alone! Listen to these entertaining and inspirational podcast conversations with working artists.Marina Terauds (https://www.marinaterauds.com/) has always loved to draw. When she was a child, her parents would sneak her sketchpad, and while she slept, they created drawings for her to find when she awoke. She enrolled in an arts academy in 5th grade and continued her art education, earning a master's in printmaking at The Latvian Academy of Arts. She worked as a key animator for many years before she emigrated to the United States with her husband Uldis.

Working Artists! You are not alone! Listen to these entertaining and inspirational podcast conversations with working artists.Cali Hobgood (https://www.photographsbycali.com/) is a traditional photographer who uses 35mm film and develops her black-and-white images in a darkroom. She finishes her work using oil paints to add color. Her imagery reflects the sensory pictures she sees in her mind's eye that depict beautiful memories from her life. These images celebrate their essential, ordinary functions yet trigger a wealth of emotional resonance from their symbolism. Cali talks about her intuitive process and recounts a story about when her work sparked controversy at an art festival that nearly threatened her safety. #roadwarrior #art #artist #workingartist #podcast #artistconversation #positiveattitude #artistlife #independentartist #independentartistpodcast #artfair #artfairartist #emergingartist #film #darkroom #calihobgood #photgraphsbycali #photographer #fineartVisual artists Douglas Sigwarth (https://www.sigwarthglass.com/) and Will Armstrong (http://www.willarmstrongart.com/) co-host and discuss topics affecting working artists.FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram https://www.instagram.com/independentartistpodcast/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/independentartistpodcastWebsite https://www.sigwarthglass.com/independentartistpodcast.htmlYouTube https://www.youtube.com/@theindependentartistpodcastMailing List  http://eepurl.com/hwQn7bEmail independentartistpodcast@gmail.comPLEASE RATE US AND REVIEW US.......... and SUBSCRIBE to the pod on your favorite streaming app.SUPPORT THE SHOWVENMO/ username @independentartistpodcast or through PAYPAL.ME by clicking on this link https://paypal.me/independentartistpod?locale.x=en_USSponsorsThe National Association of Independent Artists (NAIA). http://www.naiaartists.org/membership-account/membership-levels/ZAPPlication https://www.zapplication.orgMusic  "Walking" by Oliver LearBusiness inquiries at theoliverlear@gmail.comSupport the show
