TALK
Choosing to be an artist is a tough decision! It’s not a career that leads you to a basic 9-5 job from day 1. Artists’ tend to get lost once they enter this vast world of Art. “Who can I show my work to?”,” How can I get visibility?”, “What should my work be priced at?”, “How should I approach a gallery?” are some questions that bother most artists after finishing the college. It’s important to have a game plan before you decide to take a chance.
