Book Description
An essential handbook for all artists and especially those whose ambition is financial viability
The general response to a self-employed artist talking about their career can be "well, you’ll be better off dead"
or "but what’s your main occupation?" or even "you’ll never make a living at that". The authors challenge much
of the advice given to artists by agencies and colleges that self-employment means competition and speculation
and living in the hope of being discovered. The sad fact is most people regard an artist as someone who receives
financial support from an alternative and theoretically more reliable source . . .
. . . . . . but it doesn't have to be like that
In writing this book Harley and Cally Miller have drawn from their hands-on experience as successful full-time
self-employed artists who continue to make a proper living from their art.They encourage all enthusiastic artists to join them in the most exciting of professions.
"A proper Living from Your Art" shows artists how to identify personal strengths, recognise local opportunities,
build confidence, cost work and set fees, design promotional material, promote and market their work,
make approaches, form workable agreements, understand and apply copyright and maintain a professional profile
