How to Build a Successful Art Career by Embracing Creative Selfishness
53 minutes Posted Jul 30, 2024 at 9:00 am.
Peter Mohrbacher, creator of Angelarium, emphasizes the importance of creating art for yourself rather than trying to please others or meet market expectations. He argues that the best art comes from a place of "creative selfishness" - following your own obsessions and interests without worrying about external validation. This approach has allowed him to maintain a unique artistic voice while building a successful business around his personal project. However, he acknowledges that this path isn't for everyone, as many artists struggle with the business side of self-publishing and marketing their work.Check out Peter's Resources:https://www.angelarium.nethttps://angelarium.shophttps://www.patreon.com/angelariumhttps://x.com/bugmeyerhttps://bugmeyer.tumblr.com/https://www.facebook.com/angelariumhttps://www.pinterest.com/petemohrbacher/--
