If you thought Punk expression stopped at smashed guitars and monarchic rejection, think again. Mark Illuminati takes all the revolt and anarchy the Punk movement embraced and built art installations. His energising neon and flag work carry intriguing providence which pull you down personal historic pathways. In this podcast we learn how Mark’s has used his unique work to build his audience, but as with all creatives, is always looking to expand his reach whilst remaining true to his artistic values.

Lincoln and DK talk through with Mark how to take control of the marketplace you find yourself in, have more confidence in your own work, and use social media to position your work to the right audience. Through tackling the thorny issue of pricing and art reproduction, Mark and the team discuss how to keep the value of your artwork high, whilst at the same time making it more accessible.

The Lincoln Townley Podcast discusses everything art related. From the psychology of sales, to finding out about creative and unconventional methods of selling art through social media platforms and discovering new artists. The Lincoln Townley Podcast covers a wide array of topics and atypical themes of interest to artists, art lovers and collectors.

At The Lincoln Townley Studio, we believe that creating a self-serving art community is of utmost importance in post-lockdown times. Restrictions and changes in the way we make, consume and communicate about art in challenging times should be embraced as opportunities for change and adaptation.

Master Chocolatier Oliver Dunn features in this episode of the Lincoln Townley Podcast, describing a childhood growing up surrounded by chocolate in the family business. Oli has used the tools and technology around him to pivot the business of a traditional chocolatier into the digital age, and has figured out ways to position and market himself in a rapidly changing world.

- How is chocolate produced from a humble cocoa bean?
- Is 'white chocolate' actually a misnomer?
- What exactly happens at a 'Chocolate Party'?

Oli the Choc relied almost entirely on old fashioned word of mouth to start to grow his business at the outset. Now, the explosion of social media in everyday life has allowed business owners and entrepreneurs like Oli to display their creativity instantly, and connect with a global audience on a daily basis. Social media has become the word of mouth for the modern age, and Oli has realised the importance of organising his social media to maximise his visibility. Just like tempering his chocolate, he is looking for the right recipe for success.

Artist Neil Coleman visits the studio to discuss his journey through the art world. Having connected with Lincoln through digital mediums, this was the first in-person meeting between Neil and Lincoln's team. There's a definite synergy between Lincoln's and Neil's approaches, grounded in perseverance and not shying away from hearing the word 'no'. Between them, Lincoln and Neil take some of the romance out of the classical, gallery-led art world, and explain how they dealt with early gallery rejection, and being able to change their approach to succeed in different ways.

Getting over your first 'no' is the most important hurdle you can overcome.

Neil explains the importance he places on joining the dots - tying together his website, Instagram and social media, having all the resources in place to be able to take advantage when opportunity strikes. Buyers can pick up on your work through any number of different sources, you never know where your audience will come from, so it's important not to limit your platform choices.
