In today’s episode of the Idea to Value Podcast, we speak with Catherine Orer about what it takes for artists to raise the value of their work.
We cover several areas, including what sort of research artists need to undertake to understand what the market is willing to pay, determining their own vision of what they want their art to be, and overcoming the fear of the “business side” of things to be able to actually make their art into a sustainable, profitable business.

- 00:14:00 – How to overcome the overwhelm of the “business-side” of selling art, it requires an open mind and an open heart
