Do you ever feel like that creepy, awkward person trying to "break the ice" with a potential collector? When you're off your game, you just are! In this episode, Douglas and Will deliver their take on the most recent art fair "hot topics." They discuss Memphis, being a civilian, doing a show during the week of an election, creative ways to clean your tent and money laundering. There's just enough nauseating banter to keep you thoroughly entertained in the studio or on the road. Thanks for listening!

Just like there is no crying in baseball, every art fair artist knows there are NO friends at breakdown. In this episode, Douglas and Will deliver their take on the most recent art fair "hot topics." They review their most recent shows, including Armonk, Cottonwood, and Bayou City. Other conversations include challenging collectors, losing a big sale, and talking sales numbers. There's just enough nauseating banter to keep you thoroughly entertained in the studio or on the road. Thanks for listening!

Making a living from our artwork comes with its unique set of challenges. For art fair artists, this involves venturing out of our solitary studios and hitting the road, searching for our audience. We risk physical and financial security, and if we can't maintain a positive attitude during adversity, that dark spiral can cycle us downward and act as a barrier to connecting with collectors. This week's conversation discusses the Pacific Northwest Tour, The St. Louis Art Fair, Emerging Artist Programs, and planning for next season.

When asked about her choice to network with other show directors in order to make her show better, Sarah Umlauf says, “I’m not afraid to ask for help…….I check my ego at the door.”

Sarah became the Executive Director for the St. Louis Art Fair https://www.saintlouisartfair.com/ in Clayton, MO in 2019, right before the global pandemic shut things down. In this conversation, she brings her experience from the other side of the industry to reveal a director’s point of view on topics like running an ethical jury, managing stakeholders, and her favorite part of the job. Tune in for this enlightening conversation.

How are YOU handling the pressure these days? Are the struggles with road life getting in the way of your creative process? What is the right balance of studio time versus art show time for your bottom line? Are you prepared for fluctuations in buying energy due to the economy or elections? Is your baller schedule NOT so baller because the sales are off? Or are unforeseen hiccups forcing you to cancel a show that you needed to cover your bills? Douglas and Will talk about these and other topics related to the issue of artist pressures.

"Perfectly imperfect" is the motto Carol Greiwe posted to her workbench as a reminder that she was given a second chance at life. After her near-fatal brain hemorrhage, followed by the theft of all her raw materials from her studio safe, Carol found the strength to rebound from these traumatic experiences. In this conversation, she describes the vulnerability of being an independent jewelry artist and the incredible support she received from the community.
