About this episode
Send us a text What happens when your nest suddenly feels empty? Join Tanya and me as we navigate the bittersweet journey of becoming empty nesters after our son's move to Salt Lake City. We recount our thrilling travels through Moab, Arches National Park, Durango, and the artist's paradise of Santa Fe. Santa Fe’s art scene isn't just vibrant; it's the NFL of the art world. Discover essential tips on how to thrive as an artist, including the critical role of gallery location, the power of a reputable gallery, and why asking for the sale isn't just advisable—it's necessary. Ever wondered how much your art should cost? In this episode, we dive deep into the realities of pricing art realistically and discuss the importance of gradually raising prices with your gallery partners. Relationships with galleries are more than just business transactions; they’re partnerships. I share how a simple act of friendliness in Santa Fe led to unexpected opportunities, highlighting the value of taking risks and trusting in divine timing.
