It’s Friday evening, and the weekend is calling—but before you unplug, I want to plant a seed for Monday.
As artists, we spend so much time refining our craft, but how often do we pause to consider: is my craft financially sustainable?
This week, I explored a nagging question in the latest blog: Is profit a bad word for artists?
Too often, we avoid thinking about profit as if it somehow taints the integrity of our work. But the truth is profit isn’t greed; it’s what allows us to keep creating without burning out.
(And our true collectors and audience should agree.)

The blog tackles profit—the emotions around it, what it is, and what it isn't. But most of all, it explains why it's the key to the free, creative time that artists strive for.
And if you’re ready to take this conversation further, join us this Monday for our finance coworking session. We’ll talk through P&L's, revenue streams, and ensuring an artistic practice is both creatively fulfilling and financially viable, too (because both are necessary.)
Got questions? Bring them.
Let’s redefine what it means to thrive together as artists. Hope to see you there.
