examples: selling more work, entering an art show, etc. Both can be done at CAL!
2. Set 2-3 smaller immediate goals
break down the large goals into smaller bites
month-to-month actions
examples: Taking a class at CAL to learn and strengthen techniques, starting a social media account, etc.
3. Schedule time to make work
start a calendar & plan out a to-do-list
4. Join a community of artists (like CAL!)
artist communities shouldn’t be your only source of learning but are an amazing way to stay encouraged & stay focused on your artwork.
Examples at Cal: Adult Art club, Multi-week Classes, workshops
5. See more Art
get out to more museums, gallery shows, art openings, or private studios
examples: Cal has 3 gallery spaces filled with shows throughout the year, with corresponding receptions free to the public.
6. Share your work
this process can be scary but take baby steps
making art isn’t about making something perfect every time but instead finishing the piece, learning from your mistakes & going on to create something that you could have never imagined you were capable of.
social media
entering shows (CAL has 5 shows in 2023 that are open entry for anyone 16+ years old).
