Summary: <p>There is great merit in sticking with something long enough that you actually benefit from your own mistakes. But we hope to make things a bit easier by sharing some of the mistakes we've made - from email marketing, understanding how to talk about yourself and your work and simply not knowing how to sell paintings because they are so mysteriously different.</p> <p><br></p> <p>We have a great listener question: “When do you decide when a painting is finished? So often, I like what I see, but want to push forward for something even more dynamic. I am nervous that I will mess it up (and I have!). But...always afraid I am not reaching my full potential in a particular painting if I give up too early. Help!” We have some time based suggestions - and also the two types of fear you may be having around finishing a work.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Finally, we are inspired by different reactions to art in completely different contexts and scale. And Riley has a reaction to the postman ;-)</p> <p><br></p> <p>Find full show notes with images at: </p> <p><a href="http://www.louisefletcherart.com/podcast"><strong>www.louisefletcherart.com</strong></a></p> <p><a href="http://www.alicesheridan.com/podcast"><strong>www.alicesheridan.com</strong></a> </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/bit.ly/artjuicepodcast"><strong>SUBMIT A QUESTION HERE</strong></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Mentioned:</p> <p><a href="http://www.louisefletcherart.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/IMG_1315.jpeg">Louise's 'different' painting</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Join our Facebook groups: </p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/theArtExplorers"><strong>Art Explorers with Alice Sheridan</strong></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/257121301776313/"><strong>This Painting Life with Louise Fletcher</strong></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow us on Instagram </p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/alicesheridanstudio"><strong>@alicesheridanstudio</strong></a><a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e305r5/metadata/www.instagram.com/alicesheridanstudio"> </a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/louisefletcher_art"><strong>@louisefletcher_art</strong></a></p> <p>Credits</p> <p>"Monkeys Spinning Monkeys" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)</p> <p>Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License</p>
